With the spirit of Labour Day still in the air, enthusiasm remains undiminished on overseas construction sites. On 9 May 2026, the Sharjah Viaduct project, undertaken by Henan Guangjin UAE Co., Ltd., reached a significant milestone: the successful completion of the project’s substructure works, marking a major phase in the construction process. At this crucial juncture, Hu Huanying, President of the Henan Chamber of Commerce in the UAE, led a delegation on a special visit to the project site to conduct a morale-boosting visit, expressing care and respect to the builders who have remained steadfast at their posts and are working tirelessly on the front line.
Since the launch of the Sharjah Viaduct project on 5 January 2026, the project team has overcome multiple challenges—including a tight schedule, a heavy workload, high temperatures and complex on-site construction logistics—while maintaining high standards and efficiency in advancing the project. During the May Day holiday, all personnel involved in the project voluntarily remained at their posts and worked tirelessly to meet key construction milestones. Through their relentless efforts, the lower structure works were completed ahead of schedule, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent construction of the upper structure.
During the visit, Chairman Hu and his delegation toured the construction site to gain a detailed understanding of the project’s progress, health and safety standards, and staff welfare. He spoke highly of the professionalism and dedication demonstrated by the Guangjin team. Chairman Hu noted that Henan-based enterprises have actively participated in infrastructure development in the UAE in recent years, thereby establishing a positive image for Chinese companies in overseas markets. He expressed his hope that the project team would continue to uphold these fine standards and complete the remaining construction tasks safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
President Hu led a delegation on a visit to the project site, where he presented gifts to the construction workers who had remained at their posts and overcome difficulties, and expressed his sincere appreciation and deep concern for them.
Coming shortly after Labour Day, this visit not only conveyed the warm care of the UAE Henan Chamber of Commerce for overseas workers, but also inspired the indomitable spirit of those working hard abroad, further strengthening the project team’s cohesion and sense of mission. All project personnel stated that they would be guided by the spirit of labour and devote themselves to the remaining construction work with even greater enthusiasm. They pledged to ensure the project is completed on time and to a high standard, thereby contributing to infrastructure cooperation between China and the UAE.
