Abu Dhabi’s DMT signs twinning partnership with Bishkek City
The agreement also facilitates the exchange of knowledge in urban planning and explores the feasibility of joint venture projects
Abu Dhabi’s Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) and Bishkek City have signed a twinning agreement to strengthen cooperation between the two cities and further enhance the friendly relations between the UAE and Kyrgyzistan.
The agreement was signed by His Excellency Falah Al Ahbabi, Chairman of the Department of Municipalities and Transport, and Emilbek Abdykadyrov, Mayor of Bishkek City.
The agreement was signed in the presence of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the UAE, and Sadyr Japarov, the President of Kyrgyzistan.
In early July 2022, the DMT revealed redevelopment plans for Al Bateen Ladies Beach and, later in the month, it was announced that the Abu Dhabi real estate market saw over $6bn in transactions in H1, 2022.
As part of the city twinning agreement, the two capital cities will enable mutual exchange between delegations and business community members to develop trade, economic, scientific, cultural, sporting and other ties. The agreement will also facilitate exchange of knowledge in urban planning and explore the feasibility of joint venture projects.
“The agreement will enhance friendly bilateral relations between our nations, and the exchange of experiences between our two municipalities will be facilitated. Furthermore, the agreement will be a helpful tool for promoting cross-cultural exchanges between Abu Dhabi and Bishkek in the fields of culture, sports, and tourism,” concluded Al Ahbabi.
In October 2022, the Department of Municipalities and Transport unveiled the Abu Dhabi Digital Twin project.
