[00:01:36] is a space for youth
[00:01:38] for entrepreneurs. This platform
[00:01:41] is for our Jordanian youth who are looking for work to acquire
[00:01:45] new skills, future skills that
[00:01:48] enable them to create
[00:01:52] job opportunities instead of looking for

[00:02:34] of graduating
[00:02:35] drew you on youth who create job opportunities instead of
[00:02:39] seeking them. Yes,
[00:02:40] and nationalities. Don't Your Excellency, today, through the launch of such
[00:02:44] centers and platforms, there must be positive outcomes
[00:02:47] and reflections. What do you expect
[00:02:51] these platforms to leave as a positive
[00:02:54] and moral impact on our Jordanian youth, especially
[00:02:57] those seeking, or as you mentioned, through your statement, Your
[00:03:01] Excellency, transforming Jordanian youth from job seekers
[00:03:05] to job creators? The outcomes are
[00:03:08] clear, and we measure success
[00:03:12] higher than by the size of the impact. Today, Jordan is distinguished by its youth
[00:03:17] outside. Of course, we should pay attention to and entrepreneurship. 27% of
[00:03:22] leave them in closed and dreams formed from startups in the last 25 years in the Arab world were created by
[00:03:26] Jordanian youth, and we represent 3% of the Arab
[00:03:30] world's population, so you can imagine these youth. That is,
[00:03:34] we have a culture of entrepreneurship among Jordanian
[00:03:37] youth, but this culture needs support,
[00:03:41] and clarity in needs skill refinement, needs empowerment, and this platform
[00:03:45] came to provide what is required
[00:03:48] of it for
[00:03:49] and stay informed. This Jordanian youth. Yes, another part of this
[00:03:53] our appointment every evening at meeting, Your Excellency, is that you also have another tour in Irbid Governorate after
[00:03:56] the completion of the opening
[00:03:59] and economic news at of the Technology Center here. To the Irbid Governorate Electricity
[00:04:02] Company to launch its electronic projects. Let's talk about this
[00:04:05] project. I am very happy
[00:04:08] that private sector companies,
[00:04:11] especially Irbid Electricity
[00:04:14] And a determination that Company, have started to digitalize their electronic services.
[00:04:17] Digitalization is not only for the government but also for
[00:04:21] private sector companies to facilitate citizens.
[00:04:24] The series of procedures that the
[00:04:27] it is witnessing at the close government has recently taken regarding digital signature,
[00:04:30] Sand and its development,
[00:04:34] and empowering Jordanians to use it easily
[00:04:37] and smoothly and add services to it. Today,
[00:04:41] Irbid Governorate Electricity
[00:04:44] will launch its digital services, relying
[00:04:47] on the development that has occurred
[00:04:51] platforms. We always go live on in the Sand
[00:04:52] and supported by a rise in application and digital signature. So they want to move from paper
[00:04:55] procedures
[00:04:57] would be like the bus, all on to digital procedures and digital signature. So, they will
[00:05:01] use the Sand
[00:05:04] planted in application or log in through the Sand application to provide
[00:05:06] all their services. I am very happy
[00:05:10] that this company has taken
[00:05:15] the rest of the
[00:05:17] companies will follow the example of Irbid
[00:05:20] Governorate Electricity Company. After that,
[00:05:25] most likely you will ask me, we will move to Ajloun
[00:05:29] Governorate to open the comprehensive government services
[00:05:32] center in Ajloun Governorate. As you know, today
[00:05:35] we, that is, there was a commitment

[00:05:45] mandate to establish these
[00:05:47] centers, and the Prime Minister committed to establishing
[00:05:51] 15 centers, and thank God, we were able
[00:05:54] to launch 16 centers, and
[00:05:58] the governorates each had a share
[00:06:02] of these centers that provide all

[00:11:10] northwesterly, moderate in speed, but they are sometimes active during
[00:11:14] the day. That is, there is a possibility that they may
[00:11:17] lead to a decrease in horizontal visibility
[00:11:21] due to dust in the Badia areas tonight.
[00:11:24] Temperatures will be moderate in most areas, but it will be moderate in the Badia,
[00:11:28] Ghor, Dead Sea, and Aqaba. We will notice the appearance of some clouds
[00:11:31] at low altitudes in the north and center of the Kingdom. As for
[00:11:35] the expected maximum and minimum temperatures in East
[00:11:39] Amman, around 34 degrees Celsius for the maximum, and 20 for the minimum. As for
[00:11:42] West Amman, 31 for the maximum, and 17 for the minimum.

[00:11:49] 13 and 15 degrees Celsius for the minimum. As for the Badia, 39 for the maximum,

[00:12:08] which is the weekend holiday, will be very
[00:12:12] suitable, God willing, for picnics, outdoor
[00:12:15] activities, and domestic tourism, because the weather will
[00:12:19] remain normal summer in most areas of the Kingdom
[00:12:21] and pleasant also during the night in
[00:12:25] most areas, with the appearance of some
[00:12:28] clouds at low altitudes in the north of the Kingdom.
[00:12:31] Najwan, I wanted to talk about the weekend, and today
[00:12:35] Jordanians, as you know, the weekend is important for practicing
[00:12:38] domestic tourism and going to the Dead Sea, Aqaba, the Golden Triangle, and Wadi
[00:12:42] Rum. Today, are there any awareness messages
[00:12:45] and advice on the timing of
[00:12:49] leaving homes today for domestic tourism, and also advice
[00:12:52] today for children
[00:12:55] direct exposure to the sun? Of course, we have normal
[00:12:59] summer weather, Hussein, in most areas of the Kingdom, but we
[00:13:03] warn our fellow citizens in the Badia, Ghor, Dead Sea, and Aqaba
[00:13:06] during peak hours against direct exposure to sunlight.
[00:13:10] If it is necessary, head coverings
[00:13:14] should be used, sufficient quantities of
[00:13:17] water should be drunk, and
[00:13:20] light-colored and loose-fitting
[00:13:24] clothes should be worn. As for
[00:13:27] children, do not leave them in closed
[00:13:31] vehicles because temperatures inside closed
[00:13:35] vehicles are much
[00:13:37] the temperature
[00:13:42] flammable materials. We should not
[00:13:47] vehicles, and we hope from our fellow citizens in all
[00:13:51] circumstances that they do not start fires
