UAE, Mongolia aim to step up trade ties

Xinhua, May 22, 2015 Adjust font size:

The Prime Minister of Mongolia Chimed Saikhanbileg called here Thursday upon firms from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to build joint cooperation ventures with their counterparts in Mongolia, state news agency WAM reported.

The prime minister said there are ample opportunities for UAE companies to invest in Mongolia's mining, agriculture and livestock sectors.

The prime minister, who led a 50-member Mongolian delegation to Dubai, made the remarks when meeting with Majed Al-Shamsi, the first vice chairman of the Dubai chamber of commerce and industry.

Al-Shamsi stressed the importance of enhancing bilateral ties between Dubai and Mongolia, which he said will be further strengthened following this high-profile visit by the country's prime minister.

Earlier on Wednesday, Saikhanbileg met with UAE's Vice President, Prime Minister and ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohammed Bin Mohammed Al-Maktoum. Endit
