The Arabic domain name of the website of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has been launched, WAM, the state news agency, reported yesterday. The launch comes after the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority won approval from the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers to use the domain name in Arabic, placing the UAE among the first four countries in the world to register domain names in an official language that does not use Roman script, WAM said.
The site can now be reached through either of the following addresses when typed in Arabic script: "sheikh-mohammed-bin-rashid.emarat" or "mohammed-bin-rashid.emarat". The site's address in English is www.sheikhmohammed.co.ae. The Government of Dubai Media Office said the move reflects Sheikh Mohammed's "keenness to promote the Arabic language, and reaffirms the UAE's deep-rooted Arab identity". Launched in 1999, the website receives about 85,000 visits a month. It includes live streaming of notable events, information about tourism and traditions, features on Sheikh Mohammed's interest in equestrian sports and falconry, and samples of his poetry. * The National

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?
Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.

How the bonus system works
The two riders are among several riders in the UAE to receive the top payment of £10,000 under the Thank You Fund of £16 million (Dh80m), which was announced in conjunction with Deliveroo's £8 billion (Dh40bn) stock market listing earlier this year.
The £10,000 (Dh50,000) payment is made to those riders who have completed the highest number of orders in each market.
There are also riders who will receive payments of £1,000 (Dh5,000) and £500 (Dh2,500).
All riders who have worked with Deliveroo for at least one year and completed 2,000 orders will receive £200 (Dh1,000), the company said when it announced the scheme.
