Hadramaut Governorate witnessed the conclusion of the activities of its cultural programs for the town’s tourism festival 2024, with a cultural ceremony in the city of Al-Shehr yesterday evening, Tuesday, in the presence of Governor Mabkhout bin Madi.
The ceremony’s activities included honoring the late Abdullah Saleh Al-Mas, a Kuwaiti figure who loved the heritage and art of Hadhramaut since the 1960s, with a shield of appreciation and loyalty presented by the local authority in Al-Shehr District.
The shield was presented to his sons, Ahmed and Fahd, while they were attending the activities of the town festival, in order to extend their father’s relationship with Hadhramaut and their love for Hadrami culture and art, which extends from the distinguished relationship between Hadhramaut and Kuwait.
The Governor of Hadhramaut expressed his happiness at the success of the activities of the town’s tourism festival 2024, saying, “Today, from here in the historic city of Al-Shehr, we are concluding the cultural programs of the festival, while the festival will continue with its other activities until the end of the month and the end of the town’s star.”
He added, "The people of Al-Shehr will remain loyal, as they have never failed us in holding any celebration in the city of Al-Shehr, and we always see them appreciating the cultural programs, poetry, literature, and art in this historic city."
He continued, "I stand before you today with pride and dignity, in the sides of a city with a long history, and next to me now, as I speak, are Hisn Ibn Ayyash, Dar Nasser, Dar Al-Bayani, and the eternal landmarks of Al-Shahr, a memory that did not escape the imagination of any Hadrami or Arab when this city was resisting a more severe colonial invasion in That time was the Portuguese invasion.”
He expressed the interest of the local authority in the governorate in the city of Al-Shehr by implementing a number of development projects there through paving roads, constructing the Corniche, revitalizing the port, and activating cultural programs.
