With this initiative, UAE aims to boost its economy, diversify its income, reduce dependency on oil, attract foreign direct investment and improve its social standing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Some social reforms include decriminalizing consensual relationships outside of marriage and criminalizing \u2018honour killings\u2019, loosening restrictions on alcohol consumption, and offering long-term residencies. Furthermore, it will also implement a four-and-a-half workday week in which Saturday and Sunday will be off days instead of Friday and Saturday, with Friday being the Muslim day of prayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.haaretz.com\/middle-east-news\/uae-ends-censorship-of-films-in-latest-rebranding-push-1.10480368\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Haaretz<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Under the new 21+ age category, international movies with mature content will no longer have&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6811,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","portfolio-category":[427,429,426],"class_list":["post-6807","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-category-427","portfolio-category-december-2021","portfolio-category-newsfeed"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
