The Bahrain International Airshow 2024 is set to be a catalyst for economic expansion and regional cooperation, according to His Excellency Shazryll Zahiran, Ambassador of Malaysia to Bahrain.

Speaking with The Daily Tribune at the venue of the airshow, Ambassador Zahiran congratulated Bahrain’s government and organizers, emphasizing that the airshow not only elevates Bahrain’s economy but aligns with the country’s celebration of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa’s accession to the throne, marking it as a “momentous and historical occasion.”

Ambassador Zahiran highlighted the airshow’s impact on attracting potential businesses to Bahrain, noting that it serves as a platform to showcase Bahrain’s growing aviation and aerospace capabilities to both local and regional markets. He encouraged visitors to explore Bahrain’s economic offerings, which, he stated, go beyond national borders and aim to position Bahrain as a key player in the region’s economic landscape.

His Excellency also expressed pride in Malaysia’s participation, with a Malaysian company displaying a specialized product at the event. He hinted at the company’s unique offerings, which have already been implemented at various regional airports, and encouraged attendees to visit the pavilion to see Malaysia’s contribution to this niche market firsthand.

As he welcomed guests to the airshow, Ambassador Zahiran expressed his gratitude for Bahrain’s hospitality, describing the day as marked by “beautiful weather and bright skies,” making it a perfect setting for this prestigious event.
