The highlights of the function are as follows:
- A total of 93 persons attended the function (50 male, 33 female, and 10 children).
- The venue was picked after the visit of the SAEEA team. It is located at Sea View facing the waves of the sea. It is really an outstanding place as far as location is concerned. Furthermore, the food was also very delicious. All the attendees enjoyed the scenes and food.
- Two new members; Syed Muhammad Yahya and, Imtiaz Jehan Khan; became Members of SAEEA. In order to smooth running; SAEEA has continuously been looking for youngsters. As a result, we found a very good young and active Member Yahya. Yahya is the son of Saudi Aramco ex-Employee Fakhra Begum. SAEEA is positive that Yahya will be a PLUS amongst its active Members. The second member; Imtiaz Jehan is the Wife of Saudi Aramco ex-Employee Qamar Khan. Imtiaz did perform the function of Ladies Representative on a few occasions.

Even in the current reunion (26th), she performed the duties of Ladies Representative in a satisfactory manner.
