Message from the President ... As we celebrate the advent of Eid Al Fitr, marking the end of the Holy month of Ramadhan, we are pleased to convey our sincere greetings and best wishes to Bahrain’s wise leadership and to the Government and people of the Kingdom of Bahrain and GPIC employees, on this auspicious occasion. During the past few months, GPIC has continued its successes and achievements confidently and according to a clearly defined strategy, based upon the directives of its Board of Directors, led by HE Shaikh Isa bin Ali Al Khalifa, Advisor to H.R.H the Prime Minister for Oil and Industrial Affairs and the sincere efforts made by its employees and their contributions. Obviously, such professional achievements are not the sole priority in the Company’s operations, but such successes go hand in hand with the Company’s commitment to its corporate social responsibility and support to its events and activities. The Company is undoubtedly keen on extending support and assistance to various local societies, clubs and charities which serve the local community and without which GPIC would not have been able to pursue its continuous industrial growth. This edition of Khaleejieh covers a wide range of GPIC’s activities and participation in events held locally and abroad. It sheds light in brief on the vital social role played by our successful industrial organization in serving the local community. We sincerely thank everyone who has contributed to the success and promotion of such events. Abdulrahman Jawahery
