DUBAI, March 29<\/strong> — Building a better brand for Malaysia is among the plans that have\u00a0been drawn up in conjunction with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob\u2019s three-day official visit to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) starting today until March 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ismail Sabri\u2019s maiden visit to the country after being appointed as Malaysia\u2019s ninth Prime Minister on Aug 21 last year, is also expected to enhance and strengthen bilateral relations between Malaysia and the UAE as well as other post-pandemic recovery efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malaysian Ambassador to the UAE Datuk Mohd Tarid Sufian said the visit would open up opportunities to enhance closer ties between the two countries, especially at the highest leadership level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said apart from holding meetings with key leaders in the UAE, Ismail Sabri would also participate in the Expo 2020 Dubai which lasted for six months from October last year to March 31 this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is the best\u00a0platform for the country\u00a0to build a good brand\u00a0as the expo is attended by 192 countries as well as international organisations.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe can showcase our\u00a0new technologies, ideas as well as innovations and promote the country\u2019s advantages that can be leveraged by Malaysia\u2019s trading partners and other countries to address\u00a0the current\u00a0challenges,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he told a press conference in conjunction with the Prime Minister\u2019s visit, here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the second day of his\u00a0visit to the UAE, Ismail Sabri is scheduled to visit the Malaysia Pavilion at the Expo 2020 Dubai and is expected to witness the signing of several memoranda of understanding (MoU) between Malaysian and foreign companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the Malaysia Pavilion\u2019s focus on achieving a\u00a0net-zero\u00a0emission in line with\u00a0the country\u2019s\u00a0sustainable development goals,\u00a0it also provides the best\u00a0platform for Malaysia to showcase its\u00a0innovative technologies and holistic solutions to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohd Tarid said the Prime Minister would also hold a meeting with members of Keluarga Malaysia (Malaysian Family) in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, there are about 6,000 Malaysians working as professionals, especially in the aviation and oil and gas industries in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a good opportunity for the Prime Minister to share the country\u2019s ideas, experiences, and aspirations to Malaysians here,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said Malaysia and the UAE could also work together in the fields of education and higher learning as both countries had the same aspiration to become an education hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe want to make Malaysia an education hub…we can forge a strategic collaboration\u00a0with the UAE as we share the same aspiration,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mohd Tarid said Malaysia could not only attract UAE students to Malaysia but also citizens of other countries as there were people from more than 200 nationalities living in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
