It has become clear that his state's focus is on the Jordanian youth sector, its issues, and the mechanisms for its qualification and training, a focus that is not limited to media statements and sweet talk that we have heard and continue to hear from officials without seeing its impact on the ground, and in the reality of Jordanian youth, while Dr. Jafar Hassan is distinguished by working for the youth, qualifying them, and developing their potential. For example, hardly any of his state's field visits to various regions of the Kingdom to learn about their reality is without a visit to youth and women's centers in these areas, to learn about the reality of these centers and their needs, and then to meet these needs, along with issuing decisions and directives to meet these needs, and emphasizing to the relevant officials the importance of continuing to hold educational, professional, and sports qualification courses for members of these youth centers, as was recently done during his state's visit to the youth and women's centers in Qadisiyah in the Liwa of Basira, in the governorate of Tafila, where his state directed the provision of the youth and women's centers with a computer laboratory and the necessary tools and equipment to expand its activities, improve its facilities, and establish a playground to serve the beneficiaries.
Dr. Jafar Hassan's interest in youth issues and his endeavor to develop youth and women's centers touch my heart and bring to mind beautiful memories dating back to the early 1970s, when youth and women's centers played a central role in retrieving Jordanian youth from the intellectual and political confusion that prevailed during the years of chaos that swept our country after the June defeat, and reached its peak in 1970.
