Defence Exhibition Promotes Country: Mohammed

In an interview to Wam, Shaikh Mohammed said, “Idex is not an aim in itself, but a means for promotion of our country as it represents an opportunity for others, particularly foreigners, to visit the UAE and get introduced to our achievements, Arab traditions and noble Islamic values.”

It is also a chance for the UAE people to interact with other cultures. “We are proud about the success being scored by Idex and the increasing turnout from major industrial countries. Idex enjoys reputation among the military equipment and traditional armament manufacturers. Hence, they showcase the latest military technology at the UAE market.”

He said the UAE is one of the pioneers of exhibition industry, economic development, tourism, introduction of technology, sports gatherings and others in the region. It has accomplished world-class infrastructure to organise
major exhibitions.

Shaikh Mohammed underlined that the exhibition industry and related fields require a number of factors to succeed and achieve the goals, citing the existence of the-state-of-art infrastructure, government facilities and qualified UAE national cadres as examples for success. The country has been organising successful exhibitions like Idex, Dubai Aviation Exhibition and others.

Shaikh Mohammed said, “We are proud of the success and participation from companies of major industrial countries at Idex, which enjoys fame and recognition among the military hardware and traditional armament manufacturers.”

It is a matter of time for Dubai to host the international aviation exhibition, he said, adding that there are UAE national cadres who can organise and manage the exhibition efficiently.
