H.E. Khalifa Al Saleis welcomed H.E. Eng. Ahmed Al Sayyah and led him on an introductory tour highlighting SIRA’s main facilities.

The visit began with a tour of the “SIRA Innovations Exhibition,” where the delegation was introduced to the agency’s latest initiatives, smart technologies, and key security solutions. The visit continued with a stop at the “SIRA Security Museum,” which features a curated collection of rare devices and systems that illustrate the historical progression of the security industry. 

The final stop was the “Testing Laboratory” for security equipment and systems, managed by qualified Emirati professionals.

Khalifa Ibrahim Al Saleis expressed his appreciation for the visit, emphasizing its importance in highlighting Dubai’s advanced experience in security regulation and SIRA’s role in enhancing preventive and proactive security frameworks through the adoption of best practices and forward-looking technologies.
