Abstract:
If you find this Barqiyya slim; do not despair. The next issue, we hope, will be as full and bustling with news and views as in the past. The reason for the disruption is that the MES Program has a new captain, me, Sharif Elmusa. The departing man at the helm, Abdel Aziz EzzelArab (what an enviable and burdensome name, "the Glory of the Arabs”), has not abandoned ship and will continue working with us on the IDAC and contributing to Barqiyya.
