The Family Room


Welcome to the family room

I was born in Nablus, Palestine, many years ago, and graduated from the American University of Beirut in Business Administration and Economics.

I spent most of my working life with the United Nations mainly FAO in Rome, as a permanent staff member,  but also with other U.N. Specialized  Agencies: United Nations Office in Geneva, Unesco in Paris, Unido in Vienna, IFAD in Rome, IMO in London,  in addition to the World Bank in Washington D.C. I finally retired completely in 1998.

After about twenty five yeas in Rome I  moved together with my wife to Southern Spain where we lived for about twenty years and now we live in  Amman Jordan.

I have three wonderful sons and seven grand sons and daughters.
