After visiting my country, a relative of mine agreed to write something for my personal blog. I asked him to choose any topic from his wealth of knowledge and experience. But this is what he chose to write:
Impressions from my visit to Jordan
Last month I visited Jordan, as part of a historical research I am writing, I visited the library of the Jordanian University, I was very impressed by the wealth of the library and the books, as well as the order and help I received from the staff.
In general, I would like to thank the Jordanian people for their nobility and the positive attitude and the kind service everywhere I have been, in the hotel, in the library and more.
I thought I would share my words with you dear audience through the page of a relative of mine, a Jordanian.
I know that Jordan hosts thousands of students from the Galilee region, they study there and receive training in many fields of study such as medicine, pharmacy and more, and the great majority of them integrate into the job market after returning.
Jordan was the warm home that everyone who visited felt, and it is important that you preserve it and its continued growth.
The stability and growth and cooperation between all the inhabitants of the kingdom are the way to continued growth and prosperity.
I wish Jordan and its people all the best
God bless the kingdom and His Majesty King Abdullah II @KingAbdullahII.
Sincerely,
Prof. Mustafa Abbasi
