A delegation from the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) headed by HE Mattar Al Tayer, Director General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), visited Wahat Al Karama (Oasis of Dignity) in Abu Dhabi built to commemorate the martyrs of the UAE.
The delegation included several CEOs, directors and members of RTA’s Women Committee.
The delegation toured Wahat Al Karama, starting from the martyr's monument, which consists of 31 huge panels, resting on each other as a symbol of unity, cohesion and solidarity between the UAE community members and leadership.
It also signals the strength, courage and steadfastness of the UAE people. The visitors paused at the metal panel where the oath of the UAE Armed Forces was engraved.
The delegation also visited the Stand of Honor where verses of the Holy Quran are inscribed along with the names and information of the UAE’s brave martyrs. The visiting delegation read Al-Fatiha Surah for the souls of the brave martyrs, praying to Allah to bless them with mercy.
Al Tayer said that the visit was in recognition of the blood of martyrs shed for the sake of the nation. “It also offers an opportunity to recall the sacrifices of our military heroes who lost their lives in defending the right causes and supporting the oppressed. Our martyrs are icons of dignity and a source of pride for the people of the UAE in defending the unity & integrity of our Arab & Muslim nations against aggressors,” said Al Tayer.
“Wahat Al Karama is a symbol of national harmony and reflects the high regards & pride of the UAE government & people in the sacrifices made by its valiant martyrs towards maintaining the dignity of their nation.
