He also stressed the need for developing a plan to measure the performance of the network in the short term in addition to a medium-term plan to promote the national economy in international circles and contribute to efforts to improve the country’s ranking on international economic indices.

The new network, Al Mansouri added, will be the cornerstone for spreading public awareness of the goals of national economic development and supporting the media to promote the advantages and achievements of the economy.

He also urged the network to commit to transparency and openness in its relations with the media which are seen as a major partner in the success of the UAE.
