  GHANAIANS, READ THIS ABOUT THE UAE'S TRUE SUCCESS STORY WHILE GHANA, WITH ALL OUR ABUNDANT NATURAL RESOURCES, REMAINS A LIMPING BEGGER NATION 50 YEARS AFTER INDEPENDENCE!!!!!!
  
  VERY TRUE STORY ABOUT THE UAE, 14TH MOST HAPPIEST NATION IN THE WORLD.
  
  ASAMOAH GYAN "BABY JET" WILL LIVE TO TELL THE HAPPY TALE ABOUT HIS WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE IN THE UAE.
  
  READERS SHOULD REMEMBER THAT THE UAE WAS A DESERT WASTELAND JUST ABOUT SOME 20 YEARS AGO.

  Emirates News Agency WAM reported on Sunday that the UAE is the happiest Arab country in the World and the 14th globally in the second United Nations World Happiness Report, quoting HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai on this occasion as saying:

  "Achieving happiness, welfare and dignified living for nationals and their families is the preoccupation of the President His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan. This ranking would not have been possible without the efforts of sincere men, excellent teamwork and full coordination and integration between all local and federal government sectors.
  
  "Our goal is to achieve the happiness of our people, and their satisfaction is the gauge of our success. All development plans that we approved, all initiatives that we launched and all the government policies and laws, have one common goal: achieving the happiness of our people. What we have already achieved is only the first stage, which will be followed by more work and achievements in order to become one of the world's best countries, God willing.
  
  
  "Countries can only be built with happy and satisfied people. Happiness of individuals is only the start for a stable, productive and safe society. That is why relevant international organisations started to review the real yardstick for the success of governments and to increasingly focus on measuring the satisfaction and happiness of people as the main way towards sustainable development,"
  
  HH highlighted the importance of embracing this criterion by all government officials, saying, "We gave directives to all government teams, during the recent Government Summit, that they should make their decisions and policies based on one goal, which is making society happy. No doubt happiness and satisfaction is something psychological for individuals, but the government's mission is to provide dignified living and welfare for its citizens, to make life easy for them as well as to create opportunities for them to achieve happiness for themselves and for their families. All this requires, among other things, joint efforts and policies and laws that are suitable for society, achieving security, justice and safety, taking care of underprivileged groups and the continuous development of infrastructure. This cannot be achieved without having clear-cut plans and excellent teams and taking the best advantage of the resources that are available to us.
  
  HH Sheikh Mohammed finalized his great words adding:"We will continue forward to serve our country, achieve happiness for our sons and to invest all that we have to prepare people to make them able, strong, and skilled enough to achieve success. I say to all our people: be hopeful because we all overcame a lot of challenges in the past, and because our present is full of achievements, and our future is promising and is based on the highest ambitions" His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid concluded.

  MY TAKE:
  
  COMPARE THE UAE'S TRANSFORMATIVE HARDWORKING LEADERSHIP TO GHANA'S LAZY VISIONLESS FREELOADING CORRUPT LEADERSHIP, AND YOU'LL REALISE HOW USELESSLY HOPELESS WICKED AND CORRUPT GHANA'S SUCCESSIVE "LEADERS" ARE.
  
  AS FOR GHANA'S 275 LAZY DUMB CORRUPT MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT AND THE GARGANTUAN NUMBER OF FREELOADING WICKED SUCCESSIVE PRESIDENTS AND PRESIDENTIAL STAFFERS, THE LITTLE SAID ABOUT THEM, THE BETTER.
  
  I NOW REST MY CASE, BUT READ THE ABOVE ABOUT THE UAE AND ASK YOURSELVES THIS QUESTION:
  
  ARE THE UAE LEADERS NOT AS HUMAN AND HUMANE AS THEIR GHANAIAN COUNTERPARTS?
  
  NO WONDER MAHAMA AND HIS DUMB GHANAIAN ENTOURAGE WERE WELCOME THERE LIKE FOOLS BEGGING TO BE TAUGHT ON WAYS TO DEVELOP THEIR ECONOMIES FOR THE GOOD OF ALL GHANAIANS, INCLUDING THEMSELVES (GHANA'S DUMB CORRUPT VISIONLESS "LEADERS"

  You have the oil&gas, you have the gold, Cocoa and good soil. We didnt even know we have the oil, we know how to eat cocoa products but we dont know how to make them. we dont even know how to explore menerals after years of ashante goldfields!
  Keep blaming the Government. Ghana is a developing country. if no government will do for us, we need to rise up and do it for ourselves! we should stop exporting rotten materials and think about quality, if we know how to wear spandex dress, we should learn to produce them. we should stop critisizing the government for stoping the susidies so can use the money to fund important projects and susidy only benefit the rich more!
  We the people dont even know what we want, how can someone sutisfy us?
  It took dedicated people..... not thiefs,and selfishness. we keep blaming the government but we live in a society where someone would want money for directing you your way. Agric graduates sitting in the office, police officers, lawyers, teachers, ofos seller, fruit seller and very soon, children will be corrup. are we going to be happy? Big NO!You did not take anything! learn from what helped them! the secret? obidience.... Law abiding and content with zeal to achieve more!

  There was a farmer who grew watermelons. He was doing pretty well, but he was disturbed by some local kids who would sneak into his watermelon patch at night and eat his watermelons. After some careful thought, he came up with a clever idea that he thought would scare the kids away for sure. He made up a sign and posted it in the field. The next day, the kids show up and they saw the sign which read, "Warning! One of the watermelons in this field has been injected with cyanide." The kids ran off, made up their own sign and posted it next to the farmer's sign. When the farmer returned, he surveyed the field. He noticed that no watermelons are missing, but the sign next to his read, "Now there are two!
