He stated the WLP offers better visibility and more opportunities for companies not only in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf but worldwide, tracking cargo quickly and reducing clearance time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith its strategic location in Latin America, Brazil is a strategic partner for the success of the WLP in the region,\u201d said Bastaki. He stated with the partnership of the ABCC, the passport could be a catalyst for changes in the country and the region, both for imports and exports, and the signing of the agreement should encourage new memberships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey will be able to enter the platform and obtain the benefits, with greater visibility and access to markets in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. We want to increase trade and for Brazil to become a hub for its neighboring countries,\u201d said Bastaki. He encouraged Brazilian companies to use the emirate as a trade hub for the region. \u201cWhy Dubai? Because here everything is easier and faster, and everyone is here,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The president of the ABCC, Osmar Chohfi, said the relationship between Brazil and the emirate is solid and with the agreement, it will strengthen even more. \u201cThis signature is a milestone in the ABCC\u2019s modernization process. By signing this agreement, we are strengthening our ties with Dubai. Dubai is seen as a model of excellent logistics and efficiency; everyone looks at Dubai with great admiration in Brazil,\u201d said Chohfi.<\/p>\n<p>The ceremony was attended by the WLP operations manager, Alya Al Shamsi; the company\u2019s product manager, Abdullah Almulla; the Hub and Partnerships manager, Abdullah Al Suwaidi; the senior advisor of DP World, Ronaldo Souza; the export specialist of Dubai Exports, Zilda Rosa; the secretary-general of the ABCC, Tamer Mansour; the head of the ABCC\u2019s international office in Dubai, Rafael Solimeo; and the Institutional Relations manager of the Brazilian institution, Fernanda Baltazar.<\/p>\n<p>The WLP already has agreements with the <a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/brazil-joins-dubais-world-logistics-passport\/\">Brazilian Federal Government<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/sao-paulo-government-signs-mous-in-dubai-abu-dhabi\/\">Invest S\u00e3o Paulo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World Logistics Passport is a rewards and incentives program that aims to facilitate global trade.
