“We welcome you with the highest regards to the landmark city of Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where we are privileged and honoured to hold the Middle East Waste Summit 2009 from the 26th – 28th of May 2009 at the Dubai Airport Expo Centre under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, Minister of Finance and Industry, and CEO of the Dubai Municipality.
The summit was launched as a major platform that brings environmental professionals from all over the world to engage in a variety of discussions that directly relate to the management, recycling, and disposal of wastes. The event serves as a venue for environmental experts to exchange their experiences in order to come up with successful methods that will yield a positive impact on the environmental quality of life in the Middle East.
We are also very pleased with the registrations from both the visitors and conference delegates for our event, which reflects the successful bilateral relationships between the United Arab Emirates and Middle Eastern countries, and we would like to welcome you to Dubai, a city whose leadership and support made this event possible, which is one of many examples that echoes Dubai’s and the United Arab Emirates’ dedication to providing the society with a pollution-free environment. Our plans and programmes for the development and improvement of the environment are sustained through our strong collaborations with regional and international nations; this leads to major efforts towards protecting and maintaining a healthy environment through the use of international and modern scientific and technical methods.
We look forward to a highly successful event in this year’s Waste Summit.”
