United Arab Emirates (UAE) Education Minister Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al-Nahyan, who arrived here Saturday on a private visit, was received by Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy at the airport.
Chandy is reportedly very close to Nahyan and had met him in May on his visit to the UAE on the inaugural Air India Express Budget airline.
Chandy and Nahyan travelled together from the airport to a plush resort at the famous Kovalam beach, where the latter will stay.
Even though Nayhan is on a private visit, he was keen to discuss the development of education in his country, Chandy said.
He is expected to hold discussions with educationists here and with prominent educational institutions to work out likely student exchange programmes from the UAE to institutions here. I have told him that my government will extend full support to any initiatives that he would come up with, Chandy told.
He added that the minister was full of praise for the large number of Keralites who were in the UAE.
The dedication and hardworking nature of people from here came for a lot of praise, added Chandy.
Nahyan will be here for three days and will fly to Nepal from here.
