“In today’s session at PSA, the national state planners outlined to our participants the vision they have planned for our country – and made it very clear to all of us: if we are to achieve the goals outlined in Qatar National Vision 2030, our programs’ participants will have to play their respective roles as the architects of our future, in which Qatar achieves exemplary progress through self-sufficiency.”
