ISO00784

The member of the Jordanian Senate, Dr. Khaled Al-Bakkar, praised Yarmouk University’s organization of Youth Summer 2022, which is considered as a model for integrating the Jordanian youth into the reform process in its various political, economic, and administrative aspects. During the interactive workshop covering the discussion papers of His Majesty the King, “the Economic Reform and its Role in Achieving the Desired Political Reform,” organized by the Deanship of Student Affairs at Yarmouk University in the presence of the Dean of Student Affairs, Dr. Muhammad Al Thiabat, Bakkar stated that Jordan, in its first centenary, was able to build successful models to accomplish outstanding achievements in its academic institutions, public services, health and education, pointing out that despite all the challenges, Jordan was able, under the leadership and wisdom of the Hashemites, to be part of the political map of the world and to turn challenges into opportunities. He also said that the royal directive emphasized that we will welcome our second centenary with political and economic reform accompanied by a vision for administrative reform. He then stressed that the first step in the political reform is to reform the parliament: If the parliament is reformed, then the state will be reformed. Moreover, he mentioned that the Jordanian economy suffers from some chronic distortions, such as unemployment, poverty, indebtedness, and weakness in development, and that the higher education sector suffers from several challenges, such as stagnant majors and the labor market’s failure to absorb the increasing number of graduates. Besides, Bakkar pointed out that the economic vision of the country aims at improving and developing services for citizens and achieving sustainable economic growth by strengthening growth drivers, namely foreign investment, developing domestic investment, and controlling expenditures, pointing out that the royal speech stressed the need for political parties that can demonstrate the extent of their programs to achieve such goals and address the gaps in economics.
