"The ERC initiatives embody the UAE's approach of providing all forms of humanitarian and developmental aid to the various countries of the world," said Dr. Mohammed Ateeq Al Falahi, Secretary-General of the ERC.

He added that His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, is keenly monitoring the operations in Indonesia.
