A merging Corporate family [Archives:2005/871/Local News]

SANA'A- Sabafon, the first GSM-service provider in the country has made arrangements for the joint wedding of 20 grooms on August 26th. The wedding, the first of its kind in Yemen's private sector will occur with the aim of enhancing solidarity between company employees.

Sheikh Hamid al-Ahmar, Chairman of the Board of Directors at the company said the initiative would economize marriage by reducing the often insurmountable cost of a wedding.

He also speculated that a 20-groom joint wedding would deepen company relations by spreading an atmosphere of love and cooperation among workers.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors gave warm congratulations to the 20 grooms, though it remains to be seen if conflicting work and family life in such a fashion will indeed be a success.
