KUWAIT, July 12 (KUNA) -- Kuwaiti Ambassador to Australia Najib Al-Bader took part in the leaders' summit of the Pacific Islands Development Forum (PIDF), an event held in Honiara the capital of the Solomon Islands, said a statement by the embassy Tuesday.
Ambassador Al-Bader, who is representing His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah, said that it was important for Kuwait to participate in such gatherings which will surely help solidify ties between Kuwait and countries in the Pacific region.
This is the fourth Kuwaiti participation in the forum since 2013, said the ambassador, adding that Kuwait was considered as one of the PIDF's valuable partners.
