The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MoCI) on Thursday concluded activities at its pavilion in Darb Al Saai as part of Qatar’s National Day celebrations.
The ministry’s pavilion witnessed a great turnout of school students and the public.
The pavilion featured a dedicated area for a visitors’ book where participants could pen their signatures and messages about their love for Qatar. Participants used an iPad connected to a large screen to display the signatures, which was marked by thousands of signatures and patriotic expressions.
The ministry also organised innovative activities using modern technology to educate the members of the public in different ways.
The ministry presented various programmes and competitions targeting all age groups, especially children, to highlight the three sectors of the ministry, namely, Commerce, Industry and Consumer Protection, and to achieve the ministry’s objectives in line with the Qatar National Day vision.
The events included awareness and educational programmes focusing on numerous topics, including how to invest in a new business using a simple approach, sound consumption habits based on smart shopping, how to choose and compare goods, how to establish a family budget and the important role that consumers play as key partners in protecting their rights, among other important awareness messages to society.
The ministry presented certificates to the youth who participated in its pavilion from December 15 to 20, 2018.
