Sharjah / WAM

The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCI) organised a business meeting with the embassy of the Republic of North Macedonia in the UAE and the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA), in the presence of a group of elite businessmen and tourism sector representatives.

The meeting was held due to the visit of an economic delegation from North Macedonia to the emirate of Sharjah, during which SCCI highlighted the emirate’s tourism attractiveness and promoted its distinct place on the safe global tourism map.

Waleed Abdul Rahman Bukhatir, Second Vice-President of SCCI, said, “The areas of bilateral cooperation between Sharjah and North Macedonia are highly diversified. There are numerous potential opportunities to expand this cooperation in several different fields, including the tourism sector, which is undergoing a significant transition. As this sector continues to recover following the Covid-19 pandemic, global tourism is also recovering and accelerating its growth trajectories.”

The meeting at SCCI was headed by Waleed Abdul Rahman Bukhatir, Second Vice-President, SCCI; Khalid Jasem Al Midfa, Chairman of the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA); Ambassador Igor Popov, Director of the Directorate of Economic and Public Diplomacy at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and
