After listening to an introduction, Hala Lootah, director of the Dubai Office of the Ministry of Foreign Trade UAE, expressed strong interest in attending the 2012 CIFIT and said she would request the minister of the Ministry of Foreign Trade to lead the delegation of over 20 enterprises. They would focus on promoting five key industries. According to Hala, the Ningxia Department of Commerce visited the Ministry of Foreign Trade UAE recently.

Since the Ningxia China-Arab Forum is held for Arab countries, they would organize a delegation to attend the third Ningxia China-Arab Forum. The promotion team suggested that the Ministry of Foreign Trade UAE delegation first attend the CIFIT in Xiamen and investigate the surrounding regions.

Hala agreed and said she would report it to officials of the Ministry of Foreign Trade. After returning to Xiamen, the promotion team has made up a suggestion plan for attending the CIFIT and has sent it to the Dubai Office of the Ministry of Foreign Trade UAE. Following up on contacts have continued.
