Kuwait: In cooperation with the World Anti-Doping Agency, the 10th GCC & Yemen RADO Board meeting opened at the Kuwait Regency Hotel on Tuesday under the chairmanship of Dr. Mohammed Saleh Konbaz from Saudi Arabia.

The three-day event – which includes the board meeting on May 1, the third results management workshop on May 2 and the second test distribution plan workshop on May 3 – has been organised by Reza Charim, Director of the OCA’s Anti-Doping Department, and Nadia Al Samali, Director of GCC & Yemen RADO.

At the opening ceremony, OCA Director General and Technical Director Husain Al Musallam stressed the significance of the meeting. “This is a very important meeting in fighting against anti-doping in our sports within RADO GCC & Yemen region,” he said.

"Our efforts to make clean sport have been seen not only inside the field but also outside the field. We have achieved a lot in the past four years but still face many challenges. I wish and trust all of you will have a successful and fruitful meeting.”

The GCC & Yemen Board Council members, including Vice Chairman Dr. Sultan Al Busaidi (Oman), Dr. Hussain Al Haddad (Bahrain), Dr. Ahmed Al Hashimi (UAE), Dr. Nabil Mohammed Mahdi Al Abhar (Yemen), Ahmed Al Khazaal (Kuwait) and Dr. Nasser Al Ansari (Qatar), all attended today’s meeting.
