From Sanaa to Sweden
OkazAnother reason for the lack of optimism was what happened on the first day of the talks, especially after the statement of the UN special envoy to Yemen, Martin Griffiths, who expressed his desire to improve the lives of the Yemeni people.ARE there any hopes of the Sweden talks putting an end to the Yemeni crisis, or at least improving the situation to a level where there is a guarantee for eventually reaching a viable political solution that is not subject to the Houthi blackmailing? Or is there a possibility of finding a political approach away from the situation where an outlaw militia, which is controlled remotely by outside forces, determines the fate of the nation and shape the future of the country and its people?It looks like the optimism that comes with these talks, given the...

From Sanaa to Sweden

Hard knocks for European Mafiosi
It has been a bad week for international crime bosses. A two-year operation by European police forces just came to a triumphant end when law officers in Belgium, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands swooped on Mafia operations. At least 90 suspects were detained. Over three tons of cocaine and 140 kilograms were seized along with millions of euros. The mobsters targeted in this apparently painstaking “Operation Pollino” belonged to the crime syndicate the Ndrangheta, arguably the most vicious and brutal of all the Mafia gangs. Based in Calabria in southern Italy, it is understood that some of its key bosses were picked up as hundreds of European police officers conducted in the simultaneous dawn raids Wednesday across all four countries. This is a significant blow to organized crime,...

Hard knocks for European Mafiosi

A school grade is just a number
I ALWAYS thought that school grades were important until I realized that most people who succeed in life did not necessarily get excellent grades.A school grade for an exam is just a number, a meaningless value. A good grade shows how well you grasped the exam questions from the way you answered and helps you pass onto the next level.A bad grade, however, does not determine anyone’s future. Just because you got an “F” on an exam does not mean your future is collapsing. You still have a bright future ahead of you. You still have a long career path ahead of you.Parents may be hard on their kids and kids may get upset when they get a terrible mark. I highly urge parents not to be so hard on their children. Let them get what they get. It’s their grade.After many years and after their...

Changing mindsets in Human Capital practice
WHEN talking about Human Capital (HC) in Saudi Arabia, there are numerous levels of functionality that need to be considered.According to Korn Ferry’s 2018 survey on Middle East Human Capital contribution, 54 percent of those surveyed fell under what the survey called level 3 strategic HR department, in which Human Capital is aligned with business strategy, supporting business needs and providing system integration.This was followed by level 4 at 28 percent, which is called business integrated HC, which is a part of the business strategy and helps drive decisions through manpower building, data and insights collection. There is an advanced integration between business and HC systems.Human Capital in Saudi Arabia is evidently working toward progressing from level 3 to level 4. With...

Fake news from lying satellites
OkazNews channels, such as Al-Jazeera, are not broadcast through normal satellites, but through lying satellites. Such news channels are specialized in creating and promoting lies. In reality, Al-Jazeera is not a channel, but a propaganda machine that is not searching for the truth. Instead it is creating and spreading lies to brainwash a segment of viewers who are programmed to believe these untruths.A programmed audience finds it easy to believe what it is fed. This is the same audience as that of the former Iraqi information minister Muhammad Al-Sahhaf who based most of his news on his wishes and not on media professionalism and authenticated news. That is why the Arab world is faced with the dark side of media and is always defeated in political battles.During the G20 event, Al-Jazeera...

Macron loses his way
The French are paying a high price for keeping the racist Marine Le Pen out of the Élysée Palace in last summer’s presidential election. Le Pen and her since-renamed far-right National Front promised a range of generous incentives for voters which were widely mocked as being completely unaffordable by a France already burdened by excessively open-handed health, welfare and social security systems.The only alternative was Emmanuel Macron, the clean-cut banker, unsullied by any past political record, who promised widespread economic reforms. The last time the French chose a president with much the same economic agenda was in 2007. Nicolas Sarkozy promised to balance the French budget and cut back on what he characterized as unaffordable featherbedding. However, in the event, the global...

Employing older women
OkazHOW can someone manage his life when the income is not enough to satisfy the basic needs, how?The answer for that question is always “God help him”.Such people in the end will have no choice but to beg for money from charitable people. The money they are given will not be enough to satisfy one quarter of those needs.Today I want to present to the minister of labor and social development a segment of such people. They are women who exceeded the age of 40 and have no educational qualifications so they can earn an honest living. Moreover, there are no opportunities available for them.Dear minister, the job market offers opportunities only to women who are younger than 40. As for those who are older, they will be tired of searching for a job because all doors are closed on their faces....

Loyalty of Saudis will not change
OkazLove is a commitment. In their staunch defense of their country and their leaders, the Saudi people were expressing this commitment.WHAT is happening? What do they want to achieve? Were this madness, this malevolence and debauchery without any objective?In fact, they tried to steal our dreams. They want to dash our hope of Saudi Arabia becoming one of the strongest and the most beautiful countries in the world.They stole the idea that the Kingdom would mobilize its potentials to leap to the future with the spirit of the young and the wisdom of the elderly.They attacked this country and tried to cast doubts about it, about its leaders and people.They even attacked everyone who attempted to defend the Kingdom.They practiced terrorism and madness against society.A little gang that has no...

Crown Prince’s presence at G20 Summit: A jewel in the crown of his tour
There is no doubt that Riyadh is the capital of decision-making. This description of the Saudi capital is not a new one as it has enjoyed this status from the foundation of the modern state of Saudi Arabia as a heavyweight in regional, Arab, Islamic and international arenas.This reality was clearly manifested in the last two weeks by means of several positive factors in the wake of the paid malicious campaign aimed at weakening and demoralizing the Kingdom. During this time, the Kingdom witnessed a series of domestic tours undertaken by Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman in which he launched dozens of development projects worth billions of riyals in various regions of the Kingdom.After this, Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman, deputy premier and minister of defense, embarked on an...

Expressing love for Saudi Arabia
OkazThe video clip that was widely circulated on social media of a Lebanese national, who owns a restaurant in Argentina and who expressed his love and affection for Saudi Arabia and the city of Al-Khobar where he spent his childhood, attracted many Saudis.The Saudi people celebrated the man’s feelings of affection and love and they consider him one of them, who left Saudi Arabia in body, but not in heart.The clip drew many comments from Arabs and Muslims who have lived in the Kingdom, in which they also expressed their deep love for Saudi Arabia, praying to Allah that the country be protected from all evil.Saudis on the other hand expressed their appreciation for these deep feelings for their country. This is the true nature of the relationship between the Saudi people and their Arab...
