Why do education reform strategies often fail?
Education is a fundamental factor in enhancing the quality of life and serves as a crucial tool for full societal integration, especially in culturally diverse societies. The demand for education has surged, driven by the quest for high-quality education that equips students with advanced skills and up-to-date knowledge.A major driver behind the push for education reform is the evolving labor market, accelerated technological advancements, and the rise of artificial intelligence. Consequently, countries worldwide are initiating medium- and long-term strategic projects aimed at developing, reforming, or enhancing education. Despite varying nomenclatures, the underlying goal remains consistent: to provide high-quality teaching and learning experiences.Specialists and followers of educational...

Unveiling Western bias: Examining perceptions and policies towards Palestine
By Jamil AldandanyUnlike previous conflicts between Palestinians and Israelis, the current crisis is likely to shape the Middle East and the region’s relations with the West for many years to come. The remains of the fig leaf that the West has hidden behind regarding the issue of Palestine has been blown away.For most Western diplomats and the majority of media, the long suffering of Palestinians is not sufficient to awaken their moral outrage. This is in spite of the fact this is the longest occupation in modern history, and has involved outright theft of land, expansion of settlements, hundreds of prisoners in administrative detention (including women and children), and the imposition of a de facto apartheid regime in the occupied territories.Western politicians need to be reminded of...

Ibrahim Abdullmajeed.
Ali Makki's controversies
By Ibrahim Abdullmajeed*This book is engrossing not only due to its compilation of interviews with prominent figures in Arab culture, which many journalists may find to be the case, but also due to the thought-provoking questions and occasionally contentious topics that yielded numerous crucial responses.The book was published several weeks ago in Beirut by the Publishing House Jadawil. It has 350 large-size pages. Ali Makki, a Saudi journalist and writer who has served as an editor for prominent Saudi newspapers and co-founder of others — including Al Watan, authored the work in question.Ali Makki is the author. He is currently employed as a media specialist at King Abdullah Bin Saud University of Science and Technology (KAUST). His passion in journalism began in high school and...

An IDF-supplied photo shows Israeli soldiers inside the Al-Shifa hospital complex in Gaza City
Ceasefire demands will grow without proof of Hamas HQ at Al-Shifa
By Jeremy BowenLONDON — It is now days since Israeli forces entered Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, and what appears to be happening on Friday is that they are continuing their search for evidence of this being a key Hamas command center.We have to remember that there is no independent scrutiny inside the hospital; journalists cannot move freely into Gaza, and any who are reporting from the site are working under the aegis of the Israeli military.The evidence Israel has produced, so far, I do not believe to be convincing in terms of the kind of rhetoric Israelis were using about the set-up at the hospital, which suggested this was a nerve centre for the Hamas operation.If there was a nerve centre there — and there has been speculation about that possibility since 2014 — then the...

An open letter to President Biden from his Saudi student
The recent barrage of letters from fellow Arab political analysts to US President Joe Biden prompted me to write this open letter to the leader of the world’s most powerful nation.The letters, especially in the midst of Israel’s relentless aggression on civilians in Gaza, painted a disturbing picture of the president’s stance. His visit to the region to reassure Israel and applaud its ability to “defend itself” against the Palestinian invaders, particularly after the “Flood of Al-Aqsa” on Oct. 7, 2023, bewildered many.As I write this, Mr. President, the proverb “Whoever teaches me a letter, I become his servant” comes to my mind. So, with utmost respect and gratitude, I extend this letter to you. In 1980, at Claremont University in California, I, a political science...

Eliminating intermediaries, bureaucracy and waiting: The remarkable tale of Saudi e-Governance
By Waseem AbbasiImagine how much simple life would be if you could handle tasks like obtaining a land record, reporting to the police, consulting a doctor, baking and selling goods from home, or even applying for a passport, all from the comfort of your own home. This dream has become a reality in Saudi Arabia, where you can accomplish all these tasks with a simple smartphone app. Surprisingly, many people are unaware of how rapidly Saudi Arabia has advanced in e-governance in the years following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, surpassing many developed nations.During a visit to Saudi Arabia, I and three other Pakistani journalists were pleasantly surprised when we saw the latest Internet 5G mark on our local SIM cards as soon as we arrived in the capital city of Riyadh. This was our...

Fox News and the new political landscape: A sociological perspective
By Dalal A. Bin Hamdan, Ph.D.Recently, the world witnessed a momentous event when Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) had his first conversation in English with Fox News channel. This engagement with a local American TV channel, known for its strong support from the Republican Party, marked a significant milestone for both Americans and Saudis alike.It was a momentous occasion, not just due to the time differences that made it either a “BIG DAY” or “BIG NIGHT,” but because it provided insights into the intellectual prowess of MBS as he engaged in what’s often referred to as “English Framework Thinking.”Americans have a particular fascination with the concept of “thinking like them when you’re speaking their mother tongue.” This...

Fox News and the new political landscape: A sociological perspective

Towards a fair perspective on Saudi Arabia
By Jamil Al-DandanySaudi Arabia has been in the news lately for the wrong reasons. This time it is the transfer of star footballers to the Saudi Pro League, as well as the merger of PGA and LIV golf. Most of the commentary about those two events reveals again that Saudi phobia is well entrenched, as it peddles the notion that the driver for those sporting developments lies in a sinister plot of “sport-washing.”Reasonable people can disagree on the merit and effectiveness of both exercises: is this the way to create a sporting culture amongst a young population (who make up the majority of Saudis), to draw attention to the domestic football league with the hope of financial rewards and an enhanced quality of life in the country, or to generate global good will? Or is it necessary to...

July 14 is a moment of pride and national unity
By Catherine Corm-KammounAs Consul General of France, it is my great honor to celebrate the French National Day, "Bastille Day", here in Jeddah, with our compatriots from the Western province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with our Saudi friends. Celebrated since 1880, July 14 is a moment of pride and national unity, which brings together all citizens to honor their history, remember what gives meaning to the republican pact, and look ahead to the future.Celebrating July 14 in Jeddah is also an opportunity to celebrate the friendship between French and Saudis, which is based on solid and ancient foundations, and has grown stronger over the years. Since the dawn of the relationship between France and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in the year 1839, about two centuries ago, when...
