    World's tallest building lit up with image of Jacinda Ardern


    The world's tallest building has been lit up with a giant image of New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern embracing a woman at the Kilbirnie mosque in Wellington.

    The Burj Khalifa, an 829-metre-tall skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, beamed out a photo taken by Wellington photographer Hagen Hopkins, as well as the Arabic word "salam" and its English translation, "peace".

    Symbolic yes, but what started as an admirable gesture by Ardern is now clearly being reciprocated and having a positive effect across the Muslim world.
