June 25, 2023 is an important date in Qatar’s history that witnessed the tenth anniversary of smooth power exchange with H H Sheikh Tamim assuming reins of power in the country succeeding the Father Amir, His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani. June 25 is the date which opened the path for young generation, with a young man at the age of 33 years, assuming the throne with all the responsibilities attached to it. The new generation assumed power in a country that seemed, at that time, to rush with constructive strength and stable speed to take its place among the most developed nations of the world.
It is a significant milestone date that marks the 10-year anniversary of the Amir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani’s taking office, after serving as Heir Apparent and Deputy Amir for ten years. In 2003, Sheikh Tamim was appointed as Heir Apparent and Deputy Amir from where he contributed to development strategies and visions including Qatar National Vision 2030. The first ten years were a period during which His Highness the Amir showed visionary leadership and insightful vision to push the country forward standing behind several transformative decisions to achieve the national goals including hosting of history's most successful FIFA World Cup 2022 whose foundations were laid by his father and grandfather.
Since the mid-1990s, Qatar has been witnessing the implementation of large scale and ambitious development projects making significant strides in various sectors including economic, political, social, sports, and cultural.
The comprehensive development vision that featured urban and economic renaissance and reached its climax after His Highness Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani assumed power, coincided with the adoption and implementation of a foreign policy based on building partnerships and cooperation with all countries of the world in order to consolidate the foundations of regional and international peace and stability. Since the development of the country was comprehensive, it included many sectors, including a series of reforms of laws and regulations. Not to mention here, the labour law reformation which was a milestone achievement for labour rights and first of its kind in the region.
The leadership vision of His Highness the Amir was also manifested in facing the regional and international challenges that the country faced, from political crises at the level of the GCC countries, and the global crisis brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, to the wars in Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria and others, and in the successful mediation undertaken by the State of Qatar to resolve many bloody conflicts. Qatar under the leadership of Amir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani will continue to drive the comprehensive development vision based on the National Vision 2030 and major pillars: economic, social, human, and environmental development.
