The delegation is visiting Dubai to study the emirate's experience in the different economic fields, especially in the industrial sector.
Mr. Omar Hamad Bushahab, Director of Business Sector Development Division at the DED, who received the delegation, confirmed DED's keenness to support and develop the industrial sector in the emirate, which is regarded as one of the main factors for building a prosperous economy. "The industrial sector contributes more than 15 per cent in Dubai's GDP and indicators confirm the vital role to be played by the sector in the coming few years in economic growth and in providing more job opportunities, besides increasing exports to the region and internationally," added Bushahab.
"The DED is keen to provide industrial investors with high quality services, in addition to offering consultations and secure all basic services that they need," noted Bushahab.
The delegation was briefed extensively on Dubai Strategic Plan 2007-2015 and on the main economic sectors that have achieved high growth rates in the last few years.
