A Japanese trade team headed by Kentaro Sonoura, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, met with Qatar Chamber officials at the Four Seasons hotel in Doha yesterday. Qatar Chamber chairman Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim al-Thani presided over the meeting in the presence of board members Mohamed Ahmed al-Obaidli, Rashid Hamad al-Azba, and Khaled bin Jabr al-Kuwari, alongside a number of Qatari businessmen.
