He added that the new law will help to enhance the chamber’s role in elevating and developing Sharjah’s economy, and that it will build on the progress that has been gained during the past four decades, which was achieved due to the vision and directives of the wise leadership, and due to chamber’s determination in reaching its goals, and its keenness to work together with its strategic partners from both the public and private sectors to enhance the economy of the emirate and the country.
