- It has been decided to have a speaker during the reunion program. The speaker will be allowed 5 to 7 minutes only to speak on a very hot topic in the existing atmosphere.
- In absence of MSH, Matin presented SAEEA account update.
- It has been SAEEA’s main objective to include children of ex-Aramcons in SAEEA activities. During the forthcoming reunion, Owais Atta, son of an ex-Employee will assist SAEEA; mainly at the reception desk. This will be a step forward in handing over the responsibilities to new young blood for smooth running of the Association in future.
- Currently, SAEEA running two What’s App groups; (a) SAEEA Members and (b) SAEEA Chatting group. For some reason, all the SAEEA Members are not part of these groups. KAF requested to inject the names of all SAEEA Members into the group “SAEEA Members”. In this group, no one is allowed to input any material except the Group Admin; who, normally places SAEEA-related news only. The other group “SAEEA Chatting Group” allows mutual chat exchange, etc. from all the participants. Entry into this group will remain optional. If you wish to join the group, just request the group Admin, and he will enter your name.
- Few SAEEA members make unnecessary changes in SAEEA groups. It is requested to all the members not to change or enter unnecessary material. Very recently a member changed the ICON of SAEEA Chatting group. KAF requested the Group Admin to re-adjust the old ICON.
