Râshid bin Sa`îd Âl Makṫûm (1912 – 7 October 1990) ((アラビア語:راشد بن سعيد آل مكتوم)) was the Vice-President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Emîr ((アラビア語:أمير)) (Ruler) of Dubai. He ruled for 32 years from 1958 until his death in 1990.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The late Vice President Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum )〕 ==Development of Dubai== Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum was responsible for the transformation of Dubai from a small cluster of settlements near the Dubai Creek to a modern port city and commercial hub. His famous line, "My grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I drive a Mercedes, my son drives a Land Rover, his son will drive a Land Rover, but his son will ride a camel," reflected his concern that Dubai's oil, which was discovered in 1966 and which began production in 1969, would run out within a few generations. He therefore worked to develop the economy of Dubai so that it could survive after the end of oil production, and was a driving force behind a number of major infrastructure projects to promote Dubai as a regional hub for trade: #Port Rashid (opened in 1972) #Al Shindagha Tunnel (opened in 1975) #Jebel Ali Port (opened in 1979) #Dubai World Trade Centre (built in 1978) #The second major dredging and widening of the Dubai Creek (early 1970s)〔(Ruling Shaikhs and Her Majesty's Government, 1960-1969 ).
