The project linking government organisations in the UAE is aimed at maintaining the accuracy of the population register, which was completed recently. It supports decision-makers and the ways to ascertain the data of citizens and expatriates to provide services through advanced, secure and reliable applications that take into account the highest standards of security and confidentiality, the Emirates ID statement explained.
The electronic linkage project helps update the civil and individual data files of the UAE population, thereby reducing duplication and repetition of data and enhancing national and individual security by strengthening the personal identity in the UAE through the interdependent databases of the UAE organisations, notably the ministries of interior, justice, education, higher education, health and labour), these being responsible for such major civil incidents as birth, marriage, divorce, citizenship, residency, death, education, health record and supporting documents.
The Emirates ID statement pointed out that the strategy of electronic linkage with the UAE government entities, 2012-2015, would contribute to streamlining government services, easing transactions and procedures, reducing costs, minimising paper consumption and providing ID management services to the UAE federal and local government organisations through engineering a range of flexible services that can be developed and harmonised.
This strategy helps the federal government and the local government entities in the UAE achieve its objectives in establishing a government that is available round-the-clock, thereby contributing to the prosperity of the UAE and its economy and helping citizens and residents get highly efficient and secure government services.
The booklet contains many themes that explain the strategy and describe the aspects including the global trends in ID management and electronic linkage among government entities, the challenges faced by governments, the UAE’s experience in developing the unified ID project and the need for electronic linkage among government entities.
The booklet provides an overview of the electronic linkage strategy and its objectives and priorities. It explains the framework of electronic linkage as well as its models, services, structure and governance. It also highlights the key projects and initiatives of the strategy, the electronic linkage roadmap and the key elements of success of the strategy.
Carter, 8-0 with four knockouts as a middleweight since turning pro in late 2010, was scheduled to face 41-year-old Antwun Echols (32-19-4, 28 KOs), who is originally from Davenport, for the CABA North American middleweight title at Davenport’s Danceland Ballroom.
However, Echols, a three-time world title contender in the late 1990s and early 2000s, withdrew from the fight on Tuesday due to a contract dispute.
“Well of course, I didn’t like it. It’s a terrible thing. A lot of people wanted to see me fight Antwun,” said Carter, who won the Illinois Golden Gloves championship in 2006. “You owe it to your fans and me. You signed the contract even if it’s not what you wanted.
“He signed it and hasn’t fought in his hometown in 13 years,” added Carter. ”If it was me and I got a chance to come home and box like he had I would. I don’t think it was the contract personally. He knew what he was getting into six weeks ago and I don’t think he was prepared for the fight. It’s kind of crazy. Childish if you ask me.
“The thing is, I don’t know anything about my new opponent, so the first round I have to see what he can and can’t do. Basically, the same approach I’d take,” he added. “Most of the guys I box are right-handed. I’m left-handed and right-handed boxers are southpaw killers. I just have to be smart about things and make adjustments as they come.”
Carter’s longtime coach and trainer, Carlos Duncan, doesn’t have any issues with his pupil’s new opponent.
“I think we need to fight. I would much rather have Antwun for the name recognition, but I feel George is ready for any opponent within a certain range,” he said. “We have a good game plan. I don’t see any problem with the opponent. It doesn’t look like he has much power but that doesn’t mean much.
