IDEX is testimony of UAE high competent events management: Sheikh Saif

The growing success of the International Defence Exhibition and Conference (IDEX) in terms of volume of exhibitors, participants and visitors and high value of defence technology and systems on display and arms contracts is a vote of confidence in the advanced standard the UAE exhibition industry has reached, according to HH Lt. General Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Minister of Interior.
Sheikh Saif affirmed that the UAE exhibition industry would have not been grown and flourished in a record short time without the prominent image of the UAE worldwide and the unstinted support lent by the prudent leadership of President H.H. Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
''The amazing success IDEX is making in every edition has born out of tireless by the UAE wise leadership which cares for, and sponsors the IDEX until it has established it status as one of the world's premier defence shows,'' Sheikh said in an interview with the daily bulletin of Dira' Al Watan magazine of the UAE Armed Forces at IDEX.
''We are glad that our country has set a model for reaping economic, security and cultural returns in addition to the gains in military and police practices," the Interior Minister added.
''The UAE has been - since the era of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan - and is still extending its charity arm to all countries and spreading the umbrella of security, peace and love within the UAE and beyond,” Sheikh Saif added. – Emirates News Agency, WAM
