The Ethiopian President, Mulatu Teshome, discussed with Rashad Al-Shawa, President of Mai Resources International (Switzerland) AG, on ways of exporting water from Ethiopia to Kuwait.

The Kuwaiti Ambassador, Rashed Al-Hajiri, has told Mulatu its country wants 66 million gallon water from Ethiopia for daily supply. He then added transporting water from Ethiopia to his country is easy as Ethiopia is near to the Middle East and the nation’s huge water resource.

President Mulatu explained the government of Ethiopia is pleased with the hard work of Kuwait to import Ethiopia’s water. He then added that this effort by Kuwait will strengthen the economic cooperation of the two nations.

Mai Resources International (Switzerland) AG is a water transporting company. According to Al-Shawa, the company chose Ethiopia for its abundant water resource.
