Personal profile on the late H.H. Sheikh Saud Bin Saqr Al Qassimi :

 

He was born in Dubai on 10 February 1956 and was appointed Supreme Council member and new Ruler of Ras al-Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates on 27 October 2010. Sheikh Saud is the fourth son of Sheikh Saqr bin Mohammad Al-Qassimi,his predecessor as UAE Supreme Council Member and previous Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah, who died October 27, 2010. The UAE Federal Supreme Council congratulated His Highness Shaikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi on succeeding his father, after the Emirates Supreme Council endorsed his rule.

 

Sheikh Saud completed both his primary and secondary education in Ras Al Khaimah and then attended the American University of Beirut (AUB) in July 1973 to pursue studies in economics. When civil war broke out in Lebanon in 1975, Sheikh Saud transferred to the University of Michigan, where he completed his bachelor's degree in Economics and Political Science, where he went on to obtain a Master's degree.

 

Service prior to becoming Crown Prince :

 

On his return to Ras Al Khaimah in 1979, Sheikh Saud was appointed as Chief of the Ruler's Court to assist his father, HH Sheikh Saqr, in the administration of the Government of Ras Al Khaimah. In 1986 he became the Chairman of the Ras Al Khaimah Municipal Council.

 

Appointment as Crown Prince :

 

After 37 years in office, Sheikh Saud replaced his older half-brother, Khalid bin Saqr Al Qasimi as crown prince on June 14, 2003.

 

The removal of Sheikh Khalid as Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler caused fleeting and limited unrest in Ras Al Khaimah and was met with a street protest. Abu Dhabi, the lead emirate of the UAE, maintained order and demonstrated support for Sheikh Saud by sending armored vehicles to Ras Al Khaimah.
