September 26th, 2007 marks a very pleasant day for journalism in both Jordan and the UAE, as both King Abdullah II and Shaikh Mohammed Bin Rashid, coincidentally, stood up for freedom of speech in their countries: a move that was widely celebrated in all local newspapers and journalists associations.

Shaikh Mohammad issued instructions that no journalist is to be jailed for reasons related to his work

King Abdullah II confirms that there will be no restrictions on freedom of speech.
