“I have the honour of serving in this beautiful Country for the second time. So it’s my second home. The kind of warmth, hospitality, love and affection that we find from the Pakistani community as well as the brothers and sisters from UAE is unprecedented,” he said.

“Pakistan was the first to set up an Embassy in the UAE. In fact, Pakistan had sent its first ambassador six months before the UAE got independence. Pakistan played a critical role in setting up institutions of the UAE and that has been reciprocated by the UAE brothers in equal measures,” he said.

“In the last 12 years, I have seen a lot of development in terms of infrastructure. But I have seen more development in human resources. The quality of leadership in various sectors of the government is amazing,” the ambassador said.

Ambassador Faisal Tirmizi urged UAE nationals and his 1.6-million compatriots here to take their neighbours, friends, and colleagues to Pakistan and show them the country’s tourism potential.
