On Saturday, the Crown Prince said in a statement, “The achievement of this target marks the beginning of a new stage in Dubai’s journey to digitize life in all its aspects a journey rooted in innovation, creativity, and a focus on the future.”

“This accomplishment also reinforces Dubai’s status as a world-leading digital capital and its status as a role model in designing government operations and services that enhance customer happiness,” he added.

He further added, “The new phase of Dubai’s digital journey will enable and empower future governments to meet the expectations of the residents of a thriving smart city and provide them with renewed opportunities for prosperity, sustainable development, and happiness.”

The Crown Prince and the Dubai government are keen to implement advanced strategies in the future to create and enhance digital life in the city in the future.

The Dubai Paperless Strategy was implemented in five consecutive phases, each of which enlisted a different group of the Dubai Government’s entities.

By the end of the fifth phase, the strategy was fully implemented across all 45 government entities in the emirate.

Following the Dubai government, the US, UK, Europe, and Canada have expressed plans to digitize government operations on a larger scale, which encompass government procedures and citizen identifications.

      India may be willing to learn but I bet there will be a couple of hundred PIL’s filed before the SC when the Govt makes a move; not to mention a hundred thousand on the streets of Delhi who will protest the decision. This is India – where most Indians are powerless.
