Rabat (UNA-OIC) – Director-General (DG) of the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO) Dr. Salim M. AlMalik commended the quality and quantity of the remarkable books that the Arab Bureau of Education for the Gulf States (ABEGS) published and reproduced in 2021, tackling key issues.
Dr. AlMalik also noted the role and efforts of ABEGS Director-General Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Assimi in this great achievement and in strengthening the efforts of the Bureau Member States geared towards developing their educational systems.
