A few weeks ago I called out Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) for being overly greedy when it comes to the new road toll - especially in the holy month of Ramadan (see Dubai Cares? Maybe. But does the RTA ...?)And now this hits the papers this week:
- In implementation of the directives of Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) allocated Dhs 43.91m, being the proceeds of the 52nd Distinguished Vehicle Numbers Auction (which amounted to Dh 8.91 million), along with Dhs 35m as revenues of Toll Gate System (Salik) for six weeks, to Dubai Cares campaign.
I have to take ... well, pretty much all of the credit for this. Just like taking credit for H&M adding a Men's Section to their Ibn Battuta Mall branch (see H&M Men's).
Yep, this website saves lives, people. It saves lives.
