His Highness Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, First Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance, held talks with Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in Dubai's Za'abeel Palace on Sunday.
Sheikh Maktoum highlighted the robust cooperation shared between the two nations across the economic spectrum and looked at ways to further strengthen partnership in sectors key to shaping the future including energy, advanced technology, digital transformation, manufacturing, research and development and innovation.
The two sides emphasised the importance of intensifying efforts to exchange expertise in sectors like investment, trade and tourism and touched on the prospects for stronger ties within the framework of expanding GCC-ASEAN cooperation.
They also discussed the need to bring climate action to the centre of every development plan, with special focus on the upcoming COP28 in Dubai.
In 2019, the two countries signed the Singapore-UAE Comprehensive Partnership (SUCP), a framework aimed at deepening existing areas of cooperation and exploring new areas of mutual benefit and interest such as trade, industry and investment, financial cooperation, education, human resources development, sustainable development and energy.
