    Sharjah’s Department of Government Relations Chairman Sheikh Fahim Al Qasimi and Guatemala’s Ambassador to the UAE Lars Pira Perez recently met to discuss better bilateral cooperation, particularly in renewable energy, culture, and tourism, said local reports on Saturday, June 19.

    They explored the opportunities available to Guatemala to participate in Sharjah’s year-round events, as well as its rich cultural agenda and destinations.

    During the meeting, Sheikh Fahim reportedly emphasized the importance of Sharjah as a trade and investment gateway in the region, and drew attention to the diverse opportunities available in the emirate for investors from Guatemalan cities to expand their portfolios and further forge cultural and economic partnerships, especially in areas of mutual interest.

    The DGR Chairman said, “The meeting with the Guatemalan Ambassador was held as part of our ongoing quest to establish ties with cities that have successfully showcased their experience in various fields, most notably cultural, social, and science.”

    He added, “We believe that the most successful experiences stem through dialogue and partnerships between societies around the world who share similar visions and aspirations. Since its inception, DGR has been extremely successful in forging international partnerships that benefit all partners to lay the foundation for a prosperous future.”

    Lars Pira Perez commended Sharjah on its unique development journey that perfectly balances economic growth with social and cultural development.

    The ambassador emphasized Guatemala’s interest in benefitting from Sharjah’s journey of resilience and agility that has helped it cope with different situations, and is paving the way forward for more stimulating growth.
