Post contacted ROYG Ministry of Trade as well as prominent
business people in Yemen and informed them of the upcoming
U.S. Arab economic forum in Houston, Texas and encouraged
them to send a delegation to the event to represent Yemen.
They were interested in the event but due to the lack of
funding assistance available, no official delegation or
individual business people from Yemen will be able to attend
the forum. We have heard informally that Yemen Ambassador to
the United States, Mr. Abdulwahab AlHajjri, plans to attend
on behalf of the ROYG. Post requests notification if funding
assistance becomes available.
