At the national level, the Amir

generations. His Highness also emphasised the importance of family values and
responsible citizenship as the foundation of Qatar’s social fabric and national
advancement.
The Amir praised the private
sector’s expanding contribution to economic diversification, announcing new
programmes to enhance competitiveness, attract investment, and ensure fiscal
