Dubai discusses ways to integrate Asia into global economy

DUBAI: Global finance leaders and policy makers have emphasised on the importance of integration of Asia into global economy at a summit here hosted by the Gulf Emirate.

The Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) Financial Cooperation Conference discussed ways to promote dialogue about infrastructure financing and construction, trends in energy supply and demand, cooperation between China and the UAE and working together to establish a safe, secure and efficient financial system for Asia.

The event concluded yesterday. The first BFA event to be staged in the Middle East brought together over 350 high-ranking government officials, global finance leaders, policy makers and academics from across the region.

During his closing remarks, Hongbin Cong, Managing Director, Invest Dubai, Falcon and Associates, said: "It was not only a platform for deepening dialogue on Asia's most pressing development and economic issues, it has been an opportunity to discuss mutually beneficial ways that we can work together and strengthen relationships, bringing Dubai, China and wider Asia even closer together."

"By visiting the UAE, delegates have been able to see for themselves the can-do spirit of Dubai and gain a better understanding of the potential opportunities that exist here for them," Cong said.
