Amman, August 11 (Petra) – Speaker of the Lower House of Representatives, Mazen Qadi, said Jordan, under His Majesty King Abdullah II's leadership, has successfully maintained its security and stability despite the region's crises.

Qadi also attributed this achievement to the citizens' awareness and "strength" of Jordan's army and security forces.

Talking at a meeting with a delegation from the "National Waqf Medal Initiative," Qadi urged direct communication between the House and citizens and listening to their demands, opinions, and aspirations.

Qadi said unemployment is a key challenge, requiring concerted efforts between the government and the private sector to provide job opportunities for youth and align education and training outcomes with needs of the labor market.

In turn, MP Qassem Qabai', who attended the discussions, called for working to expand the Kingdom's middle class, which would enhance awareness and provide a decent life for citizens.

Meanwhile, MP Mu'taz Abu Rumman said the meeting expressed pride in the House's "national" stances, which resonate with pulse of the Jordanian street.

The delegation's head, Haitham Abu Rumman, said the initiative was launched to commend the patriotic stance and defend issues of the Kingdom and its citizens.
