The Chairman of Bahrain’s Shura Council praised the Bahrain Chamber of Commerce and Industry for its role in supporting economic growth and the Kingdom’s development drive under the country’s leadership.

Ali bin Saleh Al Saleh said the chamber has made “prominent contributions” to sustaining Bahrain’s economic renaissance and strengthening the private sector, crediting it with a long record of achievements since its establishment.

His remarks came during a meeting with members of the chamber’s newly elected 31st Board of Directors, led by Nabeel Khalid Kanoo, and attended by senior Shura Council officials.

Confidence

Al Saleh congratulated the board members on their election and expressed confidence in their ability to put forward “constructive ideas and visions” that serve both consumers and traders, while reinforcing Bahrain’s position as a regional commercial hub.

He stressed that the private sector remains a key partner in development, working alongside the government to advance economic initiatives and improve the performance of commercial and industrial institutions.

The Shura Council chairman also highlighted efforts by private sector actors, in coordination with authorities, to maintain supply chains and market stability, particularly amid “unjustified Iranian attacks” on Bahrain.

He reaffirmed the Shura Council’s commitment to continued coordination with the chamber, especially on draft laws and economic policies, through joint consultative committees.

For his part, Kanoo thanked the Shura Council for its support and said the chamber remains committed to strengthening cooperation with lawmakers to advance Bahrain’s economic development agenda.
