gulf air named official carrier for homeland & global security conference
Gulf Air has been named the Official Carrier for the Middle East: Homeland and Global Security Forum (HGSF), to be held from 19 to 21 November 07 under the patronage of His Highness the Prime Minister, Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa.
The event is hosted by the Ministry of Interior, Bahrain, in collaboration with the Crans Montana Forum, as part of the country’s efforts to enhance performance and benefit from international expertise in the increasingly vital domains of local and regional security.
The HGSF is expected to draw around 500 international participants, including Ministers, Security experts, Government Consultants, Parliamentarians, Human Rights Activists, CEOs and board members from leading international companies, scholars and academics, and other experts; all for the sake of developing a multidisciplinary vision of homeland security that is discerning beyond a military perspective.
“The HGS Forum is an integral component in securing Bahrain’s continued stability, and in ensuring the welfare of the international community at large. We are deeply appreciative to companies such as Gulf Air, who come forward to support such an endeavour, thereby contributing to its success; and to elevating the Kingdom’s global reputation,” noted Major General Dr. Abdullateef bin Rashid Al Zayani, Chief of Public Security, Ministry of Interior.
“We are glad that Bahrain is hosting such a globally influential Forum and, as the national carrier of the Kingdom we are proud to be the official carrier to the event,” says Gulf Air General Manager Bahrain Mr. Abdulmalik Al Saei.
“Gulf Air is always committed to positioning the Kingdom in the forefront as a dynamic and progressive nation and we associate with any event organised towards achieving this goal. Besides, global security is one of the major issues today and we all can benefit from the collective knowledge and expertise of the participants of this event.”
