Sharjah Marina is the finest example of the enlightened philosophy of His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, on promoting the Arab art and culture. This philosophy has positioned the Emirate as the cultural capital of the Arab world," said Engineer Salah bin Butty, General Manager, Planning and Survey.
