His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, announced the construction of two residential projects on an offshore expansion in Kalba.
Sheikh Sultan said in exclusive statements to the Direct Line Programme: "We are constructing two residential projects on an offshore expansion in Kalba, which will be a beautiful addition to the city, and will include a large number of buildings. There is no fear of any hurricanes, due to an underwater breakwater which protects the coast...development is very fast in the Emirate of Sharjah, and we develop without causing any disruption to the nature of the cities."
Sheikh Sultan added: We are now establishing a fish drying factory in Kalba, and coinciding with that, we have allocated a site for the "Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry" to organise Al Jasha’ and Al Sahnaw festival in Kalba on Sept.24, and we thank the Chamber for the distinguished festivals it organises in the cities of the Emirate.
