The AGU Chancellor Dr. Khalid bin Abdul-Rahman Al-Ohali praised the effective integration-and-partnership relations between the Arabian Gulf University and the Ministry of Health, the spirit of the one team and commonly-shared goal of developing health and educational services in the GCC countries.
Dr. Al-Ohali said that the agreement aims to expand the circle of partnership between the University and the Ministry and consolidate existing cooperation between the two sides since the AGU headquarters have been established in Bahrain in 1982. (IY)
