Photos: Who is Sen Genshitsu, late Japanese tea master Sheikh Mohamed tweeted about?
UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Thursday, August 14 expressed his condolences over the passing of Dr Sen Genshitsu. In his message on X, Sheikh Mohamed said that the tea master was a "steadfast advocate of peace through education and cross-cultural dialogue." "By sharing his message with others in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies, Dr Sen remained an important voice in the pursuit of harmony among humankind," said the President. "May he rest in peace". Grand tea master Genshitsu passed away on August 14, 2025, at the age of 102. He was a tea master in his youth trained as a kamikaze pilot, but the war ended before he needed to carry out the suicide mission. He then travelled around the world, making cups of matcha for leaders and spreading his message of peace. Sen used ancient "Urasenke" tea tradition rituals to spotlight his anti-war messages, sharing his motto of "peacefulness through a bowl of tea". "A bowl of tea makes spirits very peaceful. When everyone is peaceful, there will be no war," he is quoted as saying. He was an ordained Zen monk, and became the 15th-generation grand master of the Urasenke school in 1964 following the death of his father who had previously headed the tradition. Even after he turned 102 in April, he held more than 100 cultural and government advisory positions and gave speeches, according to Japanese media reports. History with Sheikh Mohamed In 2008, Sen hosted a traditional tea ceremony in Abu Dhabi, and in the following year, he presented Ryoku-Sui-An, a Japanese tea house in the Capital, to Sheikh Mohamed, who was then the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi. According to the Urasenke Tankokai Abu Dhabi Association, the tea house was "built in the Emirates Palace as a symbol of friendship and goodwill." Sheikh Mohamed also picked up a brush and did calligraphy, writing the name of the tea house and signing in Arabic. In photos taken at the time, the UAE President can be seen carefully making matcha and sharing the drink with Sen.

Lebanon cracks down on 'generator mafia' charging soaring costs during summer heat
Lebanon is to crack down on owners of power generators accused of ripping off consumers during the summer heat. A Cabinet meeting on Wednesday included a discussion about thousands of complaints the government has received about the issue, said Information Minister Paul Morcos. Many Lebanese use private generators because the electricity grid is too unreliable. The government is now giving operators 45 days to comply with new regulations on the sector, including installing meters and charging by the amount of energy used. If operators fail to comply, they could face legal action and have their generators seized, Mr Morcos said. Informally referred to as a "generator mafia", some private operators are known for charging steep flat fees regardless of use that far exceed what someone would expect to pay. It is notoriously difficult to get private generator operators to install meters to calculate energy use fairly if one is not already installed. Lebanon has become dependent on expensive diesel-powered generators since a devastating economic crisis began in 2019 and dealt the fatal blow to its already crumbling electricity sector. State electricity tends to work for four to six hours a day. It means that, if they can afford it, people rely on privately owned generators that use polluting fossil fuels. The smog that hangs over Beirut is seen easily when approaching the Lebanese capital. The reliance on generators has become more acute during a particularly hot summer in Lebanon. This situation worsened in recent days when a technical failure caused state electricity output to briefly grind to a halt, although the problem has since been fixed. Solar power use is slowly growing, but is subject to expensive start-up costs. The state has not built power plants in decades or invested in renewable energy despite several projects being planned, over a lack of agreement on profit sharing.
