Dubai Chambers Strengthens Thai Ties as Investments Hit $626 Million
Direct Thai investments in Dubai have reached around $626 million over the past five years, according to Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, who reaffirmed the Emirate's growing economic ties with Thailand during a recent trade mission to Southeast Asia. Speaking at the 'Doing Business with Thailand' forum in Bangkok on May 29, Lootah announced the launch of a new Dubai International Chamber office in the Thai capital. The move, part of Dubai Chambers' 'New Horizons' initiative, aims to deepen collaboration with Thailand's private sector and open new avenues for trade and investment. Thailand is already one of Dubai's key trading partners in the ASEAN region. Non-oil trade between the two reached $6.5 billion in 2024, marking a 23% rise from $5.3 billion in 2023. Lootah highlighted this growth as a clear sign of the strengthening economic momentum between the two sides. The opening of the Bangkok office coincided with a broader trade mission involving 20 Emirati companies exploring market opportunities in Thailand. The initiative is part of Dubai Chambers' wider plan to establish 50 international representative offices by 2030 to support the global expansion of UAE businesses and bolster Dubai's position as a commercial hub. Lootah underscored the chamber's commitment to empowering local companies to access international markets, forge strategic partnerships, and contribute to Dubai's long-term economic goals.
