Prince Alwaleed gets progress report on Eritrean charity work
 
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz Alsaud, chairman of Kingdom
Holding Company (KHC), has received a progress report on his charity
project in Eritrea.
 
Eritrea's ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Mohammed Omar Mahmoud, met with
Prince Alwaleed at his office in Riyadh to present the progress report
from Eritrean Labor and Human Welfare Minister Askalu Menkerios.
 
Alwaleed had contributed US$150,000 for the rehabilitation of children
with physical disabilities in the north African country.
 
Earlier this year, Alwaleed visited Eritrea upon the invitation of
President Isaias Afwerki.
 
Afewerki hosted a luncheon in honor of the prince and accorded him the
Presidential Coat of Arms of Eritrea, which is a first class decoration.
 
During the meeting in Riyadh, Alwaleed and the ambassador discussed
general issues related to their respective countries and the prince's
philanthropic contribution to Africa.
 
Ambassador Mohammed commended the prince for his efforts in playing a
vital role in economic and social development, referring to his
investments in the local, regional and international arena. The
ambassador also cited Alwaleed's generous contributions to people in
need all over the world.
 
The meeting was also attended by Dr. Nahla Alanbar, personal executive
assistant to Alwaleed.
