In search for fame
People who have spent a few years as doctors and researchers after many years of study want to be in the limelight by holding administrative positions. They think by working in the professions they studied, they cannot come under the media spotlight.MANY professors in our universities and researchers in our hospitals and scientific centers are people who have spent long years of hard work in the best international institutions. They reached the highest academic levels after a long and arduous journey. This journey started with 12 years in the general education and then several years in the university until they obtained their Master’s and PhDs in fields that are much in demand in our country.However, people who have spent a few years as doctors and researchers after many years of study...

UN tactics in Hodeida
OkazSadly, the UN came up with the proposal for new negotiations forcing a truce in Hodeida at a time the coalition forces almost liberated the city and its seaport.THIS is not the first time that I write about the obvious complicity of the UN through its envoy to make the Yemen issue more complicated and prolong the crisis, which will be in favor of the Houthi militia, which had seized power in Sanaa with the logistic, strategic and military support of Iran.This complicity is not an assumption anymore but a reality that is proven through the UN proposals with regard to the Yemen crisis and how to deal with it from the time of Jamal Bin Omar to that of Martin Griffiths.Griffiths is now visiting Riyadh to seek the approval of the legitimate Yemeni government to a disastrous proposal for the...

Sector-wise distribution of jobs
OkazIF we review the map of Saudis working in the private sector and who are registered with the General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI) and classify them by economic activities, we will find that commerce absorbed 22.8 percent of Saudis, followed by the construction sector at 21.9 percent, social services at 20.2 percent, finance, insurance and real estate at 11.26 percent, oil and mining at 5.41 percent, postal services and communications at 4.5 percent, electricity, gas and water at 2.54 percent and lastly transformative industry at 1.38 percent.These numbers give a true picture on the role of each economic activity in fighting unemployment and creating job opportunities for Saudis. From these figures, we can find that commerce, construction and real estate account for about...

The Yemen stalemate
OkazThe Houthi militia, as the world knows very well, is the one who is foiling all political initiatives for finding peace in Yemen. It uses any ceasefire to reposition and reorganize.MANY voices in the West, be it politicians, media or human rights organizations, are pointing to the coalition forces fighting to restore legitimacy in Yemen as the ones responsible for the deterioration of the humanitarian situation in the country.They put the blame squarely on Saudi Arabia, which is leading the coalition. They pin the primary responsibility for the humanitarian disaster in Yemen on the military operation led by Saudi Arabia, and make it out that the Kingdom does not want any political solution to the Yemeni crisis.They look at it as if the military solution is the only option for Saudi...

Children on the streets
Okaz newspaperCHILDREN's Day was marked around the world on Nov. 20 last with the theme "Children call for peace."The United Nations International Children›s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) called for using all means of media to express support for millions of homeless children around the world, who are deprived of education and who live in abject poverty. It is a message to the leaders of the world and heads of companies and institutions and for the rich to participate in supporting the poor children who cannot find education, medical care and shelter. This is a humanitarian message to carry out their humanitarian duties toward children around the world and to apply the agreement of International Labor Organization to prevent child labor and to protect children from its negative...

Trump's remarks on Saudi Arabia
Okaz newspaperSINCE the Turkish government began leaking information about the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman has been the target of malicious media attacks from abroad. But why specifically Prince Muhammad?This is because the crown prince had taken a huge leap forward crossing at least 10 years and placing Saudi Arabia in the clubs of big countries such as the Group of 20. He is also behind the major social reforms in the country, which ended the sufferings of the people that they endured in the past. If it were not for his astute decision for change, the country would still have been living in the past and would have remained behind at many levels and areas.The crown prince's ambition for the country to advance to the future and his tactics in...

Trump's remarks on Saudi Arabia

Crossing the red line
THE vicious campaign against Saudi Arabia is continuing relentlessly. It is directly targeted at Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman. This meant targeting the future of Saudi Arabia, which the crown prince represents with his vision, ambition and swift decision-making.The crown prince took quick steps to resolve issues that threatened the security of the Kingdom specifically and the Arab-Gulf region in general. Qatar from the start stood against Saudi Arabia as it acted as an agent of the forces of destruction and chaos.In the next stage, these forces targeted countries of the region that still enjoyed stability, including Saudi Arabia, which stood firmly against this project of destruction and put an end to the dreams of its agents and mercenaries.Never before the world media, US officials...

How Tabuk greeted the King
OkazPrince Fahd said what made the King so happy that day was the sight of citizens on the sidewalks to greet him. It is great blessing for a king to have his people love him so deeply.MY friend in Tabuk suggested that we go early to the sports stadium where the people of the city were going to receive Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman so that we can get around possible traffic blocks when the royal motorcade leaves the airport.We started from the hotel four hours before the ceremony was scheduled to begin. The first thing I noticed was the long line of people waiting on the sidewalks to greet the King when the royal procession would pass. When we reached the stadium, I found it completely full with enthusiastic citizens even though several hours were left for the King to...

The sad condition of our roads
OkazThe phenomenon of subcontracting by big companies that are awarded road projects is part of the problem. They all take their share of profits but none of them are ready to shoulder any share of responsibility.MANY of the roads in our big and small cities do not need heavy rainfall to expose their pitiable construction.The poor nature of maintenance work on some of these roads can be seen within weeks and, sometimes, days. This forces us to ask why this situation is repeated again and again, and where lies the problem.No matter what are the problems or who is responsible for them, the sad state of affairs on our roads continues without a break.Some might ask what happens to road maintenance after the signing of contracts between the concerned municipalities and contracting companies.It...

The Washington Post scandal
Okaz newspaperTHE least that I had expected was to read an article written by a person like Muhammad Ali Al-Houthi, former president of the Revolutionary Committee — a body formed by the Houthis of Yemen — in an American newspaper.The Washington Post published his opinion article. This became one of the biggest surprises thrown by the newspaper.A person with modest education and writing ability like him cannot publish a political opinion even in a local newspaper. Al-Houthi surprised us by writing in The Washington Post.No doubt that the Iranian lobby is the one behind writing this article after coordinating with the newspaper to publish it. This article is a big media scandal and a black dot on the history of the newspaper and its professionalism. The paper allowed an article by a...
