Dr. Sheikh Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, that they will make every effort to support the emirate's business sector and realize remarkable national achievements while moving forward.

The board chairman and members expressed their appreciation of Dr. Sheikh Sultan for the tremendous trust he placed in them to lead the board for four years.
