‘Rice Dubai 2011’ Sees Dubai as Thriving Re-export Market

DUBAI — The Founding Committee of Rice Dubai 2011 is led by a businessman in Dubai, Dr Faisal Ali Mousa who will lead a core delegation to Cambodia in the first week of September to explore the possibilities of the Royal Government of Cambodia entering the export market to impact positively the rice export market and rice re-export market from UAE to the rest of the world. The delegation will meet with Royal Government of Cambodia’s key officials in the Ministry of Commerce. Rice Dubai 2011 Chairman, Dr Faisal Ali Mousa,  said: ‘The delegation looks forward to meet with  Seun Sotha, Advisor – Ministry of Commerce and  Dr Cham Prasidhi, Senior Minister of Commerce of Cambodia… The UAE is top re-exporter of rice in the world and its feasible logistical location in the world map as well as its very accommodating Export-Import Trade Laws makes re-export easy from Dubai ports. Keeping with the need for rice exports to be increased from Cambodia, the Royal Government of Cambodia in 2010 axed its rice export licenses to exporters.
