If you are focussed on international opportunities, then MoE doesn't matter. Focus on AACSB, AMBA and/or EQUIS schools with an international network, i.e. Strathclyde or Manchester. These are both very strong programs.
PS Which has the best alumni network for your goals?

Thanks for your feedback...Finally I have chosen Strathclyde due to the following reasons:
They have triple accreditation and MoE approval
They have a Center in Abu Dhabi
Strathclyde’s program is strong with excellent network.
expensive compared to my budget but it’s value for money...
October intake is over and waiting for next intake in April
thanks

That's a good choice. Almost certainly better than Bradford, which is maybe the school that's most obviously missing from your list.
