In the event Abdul Rahman Jawahery, GPIC General Manager expressed his thanks and appreciation to the Chairman of the Public Authority for Protection of Marine Wealth, Environment and Wildlife HH Shaikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa for its continuous support for the company’s programmes and activities. He thanked the British Ambassador to GPIC and his familiarisation with GPIC’s environmental projects.
According to him the company shares close relationship with the inhabitants of the neighbouring villages without whom the project would have not been a success. He explained that the students’ participation and attendance of this event are tangible evidence of their keen interest in supporting the efforts made by the company for environmental projects.
He also praised the steady and continuous efforts made by the Charity Fish Farm Committee Chairman and members to develop and to ensure the success of this environmental project. Jawahery informed that this project has achieved its objectives since its establishment, as the fishes are grown in a suitable natural habitat and contribute to the growth of the country’s fish stocks.
GPIC has distributed the farm’s fish to the needy families as a part of its charitable efforts. The main purpose of the project is to enrich the Bahrain fish stocks and to educate the community about industrial development that should not conflict with the safety of the environment.
Commenting on this the British Ambassador expressed his pleasure at the concern of the Company with the environment and praised the consistent efforts. He considered this project as a means of supporting fisheries and a useful addition to the National Centre for Marine Farming and the release of live fish in the natural marine areas.
