Who is selling Jerusalem?
Mr. Erdogan, the Turkish President, speaks to the world everyday. A good part of his non-stop speeches are directed against Saudi Arabia. The Moroccan Brotherhood government and media are online around the clock in support. So are the Iranian and Qatari mouthpieces.I doubt any logical argument would change their narrative. I gave up trying a long time ago. Instead, I would speak to their misguided audience.Here are their major points and my responses:Saudi Arabia is selling out to Israel. They are no longer advocating the Palestinian cause. Saudi officials are meeting secretly with Israeli counterparts to agree on the Deal of the Century proposed by the USA.All of the above are fabricated accusations by the same machine. None has been proven. At the same time, all the proven facts are...

World Government Summit in Dubai!
I do not know the number of conferences and forums that I have been invited to attend throughout my life. Many of them were held for public relations purposes. However, there is one place that excels in the industry of holding conferences and forums and that is Dubai, which harnesses all of its energy and resources to make these events the best in the world.One of the most important conferences held in Dubai has become a model for similar events around the world. This is the World Government Summit, a forum for new and distinctive ideas and for presenting the most successful governmental management experiences from around the world. The summit is a laboratory that presents the most important future ideas that provide innovative solutions to the difficult problems faced by governments and...

Stop issuing traffic violations for minor offenses
Al-YaumThe management of the general directorate of traffic has finally realized that some traffic officers issue too many traffic violations. Sometimes they focus on minor violations, such as how a vehicle is parked, if a tire is on the yellow line, a vehicle that has stopped for a moment to load or unload without disrupting traffic, or any other superficial violation that causes no harm to others. Every now and then officers issue a violation for those who have not submitted their vehicle for a periodic check.What I have experienced when driving outside of Saudi Arabia is that if a traffic officer notices that one of the rear lights of a vehicle is broken he will write a ticket but not issue a traffic violation. If the vehicle owner does not get it fixed by the end of the day, then it...

MBS: Architect of a new Saudi-Pak bond
John Maxwell once said that a leader is the one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. No exaggeration, Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman stands true to Maxwell’s stated set of ways by leaders. After decades of intra-regional conflicts and chaos, the Crown Prince has put the Arab world on a way that leads to economic development. That is a huge shift from the traditional outlook of an oil-producing region that is becoming one of the thriving economies of the world.The present time tells us that the engine of growth is Saudi Arabia, leading the way for its neighbors. The magician behind this phenomenal turnaround is, of course, the young, dynamic and reformist leader - Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman - who has put the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on a transformational path and is...

Pak-Saudi relations: A new dimension
Pakistan eagerly awaits the visit of Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman to his second home. When Prime Minister Imran Khan assumed power, King Salman Bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman were the first to congratulate him on the assumption of power indicating their enhanced interest in taking the relations between the two countries to new heights. Prime Minister Imran Khan has also visited Saudi Arabia twice since assuming the mantle of premiership of the country. The desire for giving a new direction to the mutual ties stems from the compatibility of the visions of the leaders of the two countries for transformational change in the way of governance to cope with emerging challenges. The vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan to transform Pakistan along the lines of the state of...

Pak-Saudi relations: A new dimension

Why is it so hard to see a movie?
Cinemas were opened more than eight months ago in Riyadh, but I have still not gone to one. I love movies and I love the atmosphere of the cinema environment. However, there are a number of problems that I have faced and that many others like me have faced when they have wanted to purchase tickets online for a movie. It is not easy because a person needs to buy the movie ticket several days before the movie is shown.Sometimes when I want to watch a movie, I decide instantly. Then again, people may plan to go to watch a movie and then something comes up which forces them to cancel their plans.When we travel abroad, we are used to standing inside a movie theater to check the movie posters on display and the times the films will be shown. We may check the movie timing through special...

British MP Graham Jones refutes lies and allegations
Member of the British House of Commons Graham Jones has repudiated the lies and ongoing allegations regarding the war in Yemen, which are fabricated by global British organizations concerned with human rights as well as humanitarian issues of great concern to the UK government and a number of governments that have friendly relations with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.Jones’ statements are important given that he is a member of the Labor Party Opposition led by Jeremy Corbyn that has adopted a hostile stance against the Kingdom and has allied with its enemies. His testimony gains yet greater importance as he is the Chair of the Commons Committees on Arms Export Controls (CAEC).Appearing before the defense select committee, Jones launched a strong attack against the said organizations,...

Day of solidarity with the Kashmiri people
The Pakistan Repatriation Council (PRC) recently organized a symposium in Jeddah in solidarity with the Kashmiri people who have been living under Indian occupation since the partition of the subcontinent between India and Pakistan. The Kashmiris have been subjected to violations of human rights by the Indian occupation forces.Several leaders of the Pakistani community in Jeddah attended the symposium, which began with a recitation of a few verses from the Holy Qur’an. This was followed by a speech session. The speakers dealt with the persecution, killing and displacement of the Kashmiri people at the hands of Indian security forces. They called on the Pakistani government to exert efforts to pressure the United Nations to implement resolutions, adopted by it earlier, to hold a...

The benefits of polygamy
OkazA Nigerian man in his 50s decided that it would be enough to marry three women in one night instead of six, because he did not have enough money to marry all of them. One might think that a young woman in any society would not accept polygamy, especially with a man who was much older than her, unless he was wealthy and she was searching for an easy life. But to agree to marry a poor man and be one of his three wives on the same night is really something strange.The news report about this marriage explained that the man was trying to break the Nigerian Guinness World Records, which was recorded two months earlier with regard to a man from the same village who married two wives in the same day.The man promised to work hard to secure money to carry out his plan and marry the three women...

Do unto others as you would do to yourself
A friend of mine told me how he had once checked his mother into a local hospital, and as all the private rooms were reserved, his mother had to occupy a shared room until such time as a private room became available. Once he got her settled in, he could not help but notice a frail heap of humanity occupying the adjoining bed. It was the near lifeless form of what seemed to be a young oriental woman.The woman lay there still, and her breathing was very shallow. A near semi-comatose state as far as my friend could tell, and her only visitors were the doctors and nurses who frequently entered the room to check on her and monitor her vital signs.Her face was badly bruised and adorned with red and blue welts, her hair was cropped short near to the scalp, and she looked very malnourished. Her...
