President of Turkey Abdullah Gul has urged the Turkish and Emirati business communities to benefit from the joint political will of the leadership in both countries and enhance trade and economic cooperation between UAE and Turkey.
Addressing the Emirati-Turkish Business Forum organised by the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel yesterday, Gul praised Dubai's pioneering role in the world of business and finance.
He encouraged the business communities in both countries to work to raise the level of bilateral trade.
Gul commended the achievements of the trade sector in Dubai and noted that the emirate owns the largest airports and the seaports.
A gathering of 500 businesspersons and officials from both countries including Sultan Al Mansouri UAE Minister of Economy and head of the Mission of Honour accompanying the Turkish Head of State and Finance Minister of Turkey Mehmet Simsek attended the forum.
Gul said that since his last visit to the UAE earlier in 2005 as the Foreign minister of Turkey, Dubai's development has reached unbelievably higher levels.
He called on the people in both countries to strive to develop the bilateral relations between UAE and Dubai at all levels benefiting from the common factors they share between them such as religion and culture.
Gul encouraged UAE businessmen to invest in Turkey in the vital areas like agriculture and industry that will ensure food security. He also called for setting up joint projects in the avenues of tourism, transport and finance services. - Emirates News Agency, WAM
