Kerala is the “glittering jewel of South India” and Keralites are partners and elders that Dubai turn to for advice, Reem Al Hashimy, UAE’s Minister of State for International Cooperation said here in Dubai.
Calling Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan a “mentor and guide”, Al Hashimy said: “The UAE and India, and Dubai and the state of Kerala, enjoy strong and valued relations at every single level.
