Sheikh Ahmed Bin Humaid Al Nuaimi said, “The responsibility for the protection of the safety of everybody is a common responsibility, as the exceptional circumstances being witnessed by the world due to the coronavirus pandemic require the cooperation of everybody, which is also a test of the active partnership between the public and private sectors for the attainment of the interest of everybody, in what would ensure the rights of all parties, especially investors and consumers, as the protection of the health and safety of the citizens and residents in Ajman is an unquestionable top priority.”

Sheikh Ahmed Al Nuaimi added, “Despite all challenges, the UAE continues its journey towards leadership and competitiveness. The best evidence for this is that the UAE ranked 1st on the Arabian level in 2020, for the eighth consecutive year, according to the index for the ease of doing business, as issued by the World Bank, a thing which reflects the advanced position of the UAE on the international map of economy, and the country’s ability to deal with any case of emergency efficiently and smoothly.”
