In concluding his speech, Ashraf Adel, the company's general manager, expressed his thanks and appreciation to Engineer Khaled Abbas for his prominent and tangible role in the renaissance and growth of private sector projects in the capital. This is a natural result of his continuous follow-up and constant efforts to overcome any obstacles facing companies in completing their work.
