Growth and development rates are higher and faster which result in exciting and stimulating meetings. Let us work as ONE TEAM-ONE GOAL to make the advanced club a paradigm to all the other clubs of Jubail Fraternity’

And stressed that nothing is impossible if we have the goal and determination to achieve it with go for it attitude.

Audience was enthralled with TM Mohammed’s answers for the questions they asked. Mohammed grew up with a stutter and deals with it occasionally.
