Visiting Tunisian Minister of Transport Abderrahim Zouari said in Iran Saturday that Islamic countries are recommended to make use of Iran's experiences in Metro construction and management. Following inspection of the Tehran Metro system, Zouari said Metro provides an opportunity for affordable transportation, reducing waste of time and increasing productivity of citizens.
According to <i>IRNA</i>, he added that Metro can also be an impetus for instilling an organized culture among the public and "by moving a lot of people at once it encourages them to leave their automobiles behind."
