The 32nd Sharjah International Book Fair themed ‘For the Love of the Written Word’. The ten-day event is held annually in Sharjah, the third largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates, a federation of seven emirates. Part of the aims of the fair was to enrich the Arabic children’s library. It would seem these government-led initiatives within the UAE and Saudi Arabia are finally yielding fruit. Saudi Arabia is down from an illiteracy rate of 60% in 1972 to 4% in 2013. Night schools and adult education schools established in 1984 seem to be paying off; particularly those opened at local mosques and Quranic schools.

Speaking on the occasion, Tamer Said, Business Development Manager at Kalimat Group, commented: “The Sharjah International Book Fair offers an ideal platform for us and publishers from all over the world to exhibit new works to a large number of visitors and guests, including men of letters, intellectuals and critics. The fair also offers an excellent opportunity to meet with children and their families, and listen to their opinions about our publications and the topics covered in children’s stories by our authors.” read more

TOUGH ACCOUNT

Jones applied to a collections agency for a job, but he had no experience. He was so intense that the manager gave him a tough account with the promise that if he collected it, he'd get the job.

Two hours later, Jones came back with the entire amount.
"Amazing!" the manager said. "How did you do it?"

"Easy," Jones replied. "I told him if he didn't pay up, I'd tell all his other creditors he paid us."
