Sharjah24: His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, confirmed that the Kalba Beach Breaker provides industrial protection for fishes from the clutches of predators and hurricanes, and make them reproduce peacefully, due to its 200-meter holes.
His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah explained in a telephone intervention on the "Direct Line" programme, which is broadcast on Sharjah Radio and Television, and presented by Mohammed Hassan Khalaf, Director General of the Sharjah Broadcasting Authority, by saying , "The hurricanes and waves that came only a few reach the surface, and they will break due to the presence of the breaker.

The largest pasture for fishes in Kalba

His Highness explained, "The amount of fishes that will be present from the Breaker area to the shore is innumerable, because aquatic organisms grew on Breaker, and the fishes will hide among the coral reefs to escape from predatory fishes, and the bottom fishes such as the grouper are all hiding among the reefs, and this region has the largest pasture for fishes, stating that we do not wait for nature to disgrace us, we are cultivating”, noting that nearly a million reefs have been planted so far.


Soil nature in the area of  Kalba Beach Breaker

His Highness noted on the nature of the soil in the Breaker area, saying: "The initiative of the President of the UAE employed a company that worked to provide us with mud from the sea instead of soil from another place, which caused damage to the beach, and we will replace the mud with other sand through the use of excavators, and this is a study I personally supervised it and I am the person concerned to talk about this issue, and this process is very expensive, not as if we throw the stone into the sea, but rather it is a much more complex process, through leveling stones in a row to block the movement of the waves and prevent their effects.”

The second and third stage

His Highness pointed out that the second phase of Breaker will be from Khor Kalba to Khatm Al Navah to protect the second beach from other things, for example, protecting marine life such as crabs and turtles, endangered with extinction, and the third phase will be from Kalba Port to the entrance of the city.


Al Layyah Canal

His Highness said: "We are working on "Al Layyah Canal" project to clean Khaled Lake. It is noticeable that during a short period the lake was completely cleaned and became suitable for swimming, but at the bottom of the lake we have a lot of sediment in the form of "silt and sewage waste" due to a broken sewage pipe, But with a simple process and with the help of boats that will pull the pipes at the bottom, this silt will be spread and the water is cleaned. His Highness affirmed that the intention of this process is to clean and not harm the marine life at the bottom, and the amount of sand that will be dug in the channel will go to Kalba.”


Hygiene is a culture

His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah stressed the efforts made by Bee'ah to maintain the cleanliness of the Emirate of Sharjah, appealing to people and citizens in particular to pay attention to cleanliness, specifically in desert that are home to many creatures and are not empty as some think. And His Highness added: "I tell people, enjoy the beautiful nature, keep your country clean, and we must make it a paradise."



Jawaher Al Qasimi graduates leaders

His Highness, the Ruler of Sharjah, stated that his wife, Sheikha Jawaher bint Muhammad Al Qasimi, President of the Supreme Council for Family Affairs, is making unremitting efforts to serve the community.

His Highness said: "Sheikha Jawaher manages 25 institutions, most of which are community institutions, namely the children and youth centres, all of which are affiliated with the Rubu' Qarn Foundation for Creating Leaders, where the affiliates are graduated at the level of leaders."


"Mabarra" programme

His Highness explained, "People think that the "Mabarrah" programme looks at employment applications only, but it is more than that, as it is keen to present and solve problems.  His Highness told the story of a family problem that His Highness intervened himself to solve.


Ruler of Sharjah: I have 500 jobs for these people
