Delighted to host H.E. Abdulla bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of @EconomyAE, today at the Secretariat.
He is a great friend and well-wisher of Tamil Nadu, whom I had the pleasure of meeting during my visit to the #UAE in March 2022.
During our meeting, we discussed business and investment partnerships in sectors such as logistics, retail, affordable housing, and food processing, with a particular focus on MSMEs and job creation.
