HEALTH IS NEW FRONTIER FOR TALENTED EMIRATI YOUTH: The UAE has given a boost to the competitiveness of Emiratis in the private sector, which is mostly comprised of an expat workforce, by facilitating them in the medical field through the Nafis programme. Also known as the Emirati Talent Competitiveness Council, the healthcare segment under this Emiratisation drive will continue to receive applications from UAE nationals, particularly high school graduates, until August 14. To incentivise youth in this crucial sector, the programme offers scholarships, monthly incentives and job opportunities. The synergy between ministries, higher education establishments and hospitals and clinics is ensuring the success of the nation’s young talent. [COMMENT BY: Faisal Masudi, Assistant Editor]

ARSENAL GIVE TOP-FOUR RIVALS GLIMPSE OF WHAT THEY ARE UP AGAINST THIS SEASON: Not only have Arsenal been active in the summer transfer window, the team has been scoring for fun during pre-season too. And last night the Gunners kicked off the 2022/23 Premier League season with a comfortable 2-0 away win against Crystal Palace. They played with a relentless intensity which ultimately brought them three valuable points. It was exactly the start that coach Mikel Arteta would have wanted – they created lots of chances, scored goals and kept a clean sheet. They gave their top-four rivals a glimpse of what they are up against this term. Arsenal made terrible start last season by losing their first three matches and ultimately missed out on Champions League football. But now with a strengthened squad thanks to the arrivals of Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko from Manchester City, they will have their eyes set on a top four finish this time around.

During that time, they were splashed all over social media and the comedian even featured on her reality show, ‘The Kardashians’. It’s no secret that the Kardashian are experts at moulding their image to best suit their purposes. While it’s their business what they do with their lives, here’s your reminder to not use celebrity couples as a yardstick for relationships. Normal people cannot and should not want to emulate something that just might be an elaborate facade put up for public consumption. [COMMENT BY: Jennifer Barretto, Assistant Editor - Features]
