Dr. Kamali - A Great Leader

Thanks to Carole for this which she put as a comment on the Billy Bee article, where he libels Dr Kamali.........

"Whenever any individual or group of persons attempt to do great things, there most often appears an equal amount of resistance and criticism.

I have met with Dr. Kamali and with those who know him well. I found him to be genuine, intelligent and personal. I agree that there are many challenges in the UAE. However, these challenges are similar to those we are facing around the world in the area of education. There are many initiatives being implemented in primary education to prepare Emirates for higher education as well as, prepare them for the workforce.


Billy Bee you are obviously an educator who can identify problems and challenges. You could be helping to find solutions. Help the students to become successful rather than criticizing and labeling them. Be the change that you would like to see. Communicate with Dr. Kamali about your concerns. Come up with some ideas that might bring about changes you think are important.

As for Dr. Kamali, I admire him and the work he has done and continues to do in the face of great challenge.
