prejudice to their acquired rights. Coming to the new department, the aim is to develop an integrated
legislative framework. This framework would regulate tourism, cultural, and media activities.

Making Ajman A Global Hub Got Tourism, Media And Culture
With the aim of making Ajman a global hub for tourism, media, and culture, they plan to do so by
developing the department headquarters in Ajman. And it will also oversee cultural and artistic
development, along with heritage preservation, management of museums, and historical sites will also
come under this department. While in the media sector, it will regulate media activity, overseas
content, contribute to policy development, issue licenses, and even support media investment.
So with the new law taking effect in 90 days after its issuance, the law will abolish all the previous
legislation that relates to the establishment and regulation of the former two departments.
