[00:01:36] to hospitals in general, whether in
[00:02:02] and specifically from
[00:02:06] through the rounds that will be conducted with the launch of the "Bridges of Recovery" medical campaign activities organized by the SAMS team
[00:02:08] as part of its 15th campaign to Syria, with the participation of
[00:02:12] doctors and volunteers from
[00:02:15] field in this several countries. That's right, Yara. The campaign has a diverse medical program that includes
[00:02:19] specialized surgical medical
[00:02:21] about this fields, in addition to supporting local cadres and enhancing
[00:02:24] the exchange of expertise, provided that its tour includes a number of Syrian
[00:02:28] governorates. Our correspondent from Deir ez-Zor, Ahmed Al-Atra,
[00:02:33] and Syrian experts abroad will join us to tell us about the details of this campaign
[00:02:35] cases and experiences. And of course, and the most important services it provides to beneficiaries. Ahmed, good morning and welcome.
[00:02:38] Tell us, Ahmed, about the most important details of the "Bridges of Recovery" campaign
[00:02:42] that started its work from Deir ez-Zor, and what is the nature of the medical
[00:02:55] with this breaking news now in
[00:02:57] the National Hospital in Deir ez-Zor.
[00:03:00] The first cardiac catheterization
[00:03:03] to the area? operations in the governorate. And this is considered an achievement
[00:03:06] after the opening of the cardiac catheterization department in Deir ez-Zor.
[00:03:11] resident students or resident doctors in And now, almost four to more
[00:03:15] than five to six catheterization
[00:03:18] operations will be performed today within
[00:03:21] the "Bridges of Recovery" campaign, which, according
[00:03:25] to the head of the campaign, took its name from the Deir
[00:03:28] ez-Zor governorate and the Deir ez-Zor bridges. It was named
[00:03:32] the "Bridges of Recovery" campaign
[00:03:36] God willing. Aha, okay, starting from the eastern region
[00:03:40] and from touching 24 hours a day. and will include several Syrian governorates. This campaign is considered the largest
[00:03:43] among the 15 campaigns
[00:03:47] a shortage of cadres in this that came to Syria, affiliated with the SAMS
[00:03:49] fugitive rule. Holding this organization.
[00:03:51] the burden of expenses on It includes several specialties, including cardiology and general surgery
[00:03:55] in general, neurology, and pediatrics.
[00:03:58] There is also dental surgery. This campaign
[00:04:02] is characterized by
[00:04:06] radiologists inside and outside the diversity of this nationalities participating
[00:04:09] in it, whether from doctors or medical staff. There are doctors from
[00:04:12] the United States of America, doctors from Italy,
[00:04:16] and doctors from Switzerland, as well as from
[00:04:19] a project aimed at reducing Australia. This campaign includes approximately 64
[00:04:23] doctors
[00:04:26] this environment. We face many and volunteers. Of course, all are specialized doctors.
[00:04:31] The greatest benefit that Deir ez-Zor governorate reaps,
[00:04:34] according to the Director of Health in Deir ez-Zor, is the issue
[00:04:39] God willing, to develop this of training and providing the health or nursing
[00:04:42] and contributing with him staff with greater
[00:04:45] experience, whether in dealing with
[00:04:47] a diverse axis that included many cases or in dealing with patients or
[00:04:50] dealing with modern technology
[00:04:53] that
[00:04:56] of radiology in can be used in Syrian hospitals in general. Okay.
[00:05:00] Ahmed, this is a very important point: the exchange of experiences
[00:05:03] today to raise the level of
[00:05:05] periods and many local cadres, whether in dealing with
[00:05:09] cases or also from
[00:05:12] of hormonal drugs. This a technical perspective. Where are these operations performed,
[00:05:15] in which hospitals and centers in Deir
[00:05:18] ez-Zor?
[00:05:21] Of course, yes, in
[00:05:25] the operating room at the National
[00:05:28] Hospital, which includes several rooms.
[00:05:32] But now, cardiac catheterization operations
[00:05:35] are the first in the governorate
[00:05:38] and the first to be performed by the campaign in the National
[00:05:41] Hospital. Of course, the campaign will not stop in this hospital.
[00:05:44] Of course, there are doctors who will go to examine and also
[00:05:48] perform operations, whether gynecological or pediatric, at Al-Howaidi Hospital.
[00:05:51] There is also a campaign or a group of doctors who will go
[00:05:55] to Al-Mayadin Hospital in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor,
[00:05:58] Chamiyah. And also, there are doctors who will go to the eastern countryside
[00:06:02] of Deir ez-Zor, Al-Jazira, to the Hajin area. And also, examinations
[00:06:05] and consultations will be conducted in addition
[00:06:09] to operations. The operations, of course, will be here at
[00:06:12] the National Hospital. The health
[00:06:16] seminars, first, and consultations and examinations will all
[00:06:19] be conducted in the other health centers.
[00:06:22] These, these are the lessons
[00:06:26] they give, the seminars that SAMS
[00:06:29] conducts, or even the practical lessons. Of course, according to the head
[00:06:33] of the campaign, there is
[00:06:36] of the doctors in this campaign dedicated only to accompanying Syrian
[00:06:40] doctors in the process of examinations and
[00:06:45] cases that come
[00:06:48] emergency or in outpatient clinics. Of course,
[00:06:51] there are examinations and there are also resident patients.
[00:06:55] There are doctors who will be
[00:06:57] accompanying the health staff, whether nursing or
[00:07:01] medical, to examine or to know
[00:07:05] the patient's condition and to give the appropriate medication, how to
[00:07:08] give the medication, how to diagnose, or to assist in the matter
[00:07:12] of detecting what the patient is suffering from, also
[00:07:18] the doctors coming from SAMS. Yes, and as you mentioned, Ahmed,
[00:07:22] to ensure the sustainability of this campaign, one of its goals is to train
[00:07:26] medical staff and new doctors as well. How is this training
[00:07:29] conducted? Is it theoretical and practical together? Tell us more
[00:07:33] topic.
[00:07:35] Of course,
[00:07:38] within this campaign, yesterday
[00:07:42] evening when the team arrived, there was a press conference
[00:07:45] to reveal what this team would do.
[00:07:49] Of course, we found doctors from the Faculty
[00:07:52] of Human Medicine in Deir ez-Zor at Al-Furat University
[00:07:56] present and who volunteered in this campaign to gain
[00:08:00] experience. Of course, this means
[00:08:02] according to the students themselves with whom I conducted
[00:08:06] interviews or opinion polls, they are all
[00:08:09] eager to gain experience, especially
[00:08:13] since they are in the teaching stage or in the student stage.
[00:08:16] They are still students and have not graduated, in addition
[00:08:19] to resident students. There are
[00:08:24] hospitals, and some of them
[00:08:26] are volunteers in this campaign and will accompany this campaign, whether
[00:08:30] in the operating room or in patient rooms,
[00:08:34] and they will be the main
[00:08:36] goal for all teaching doctors.
[00:08:40] There are teaching doctors
[00:08:43] in the campaign. These students will be the goal
[00:08:46] of the teaching doctors
[00:08:49] to educate them or provide them with the necessary
[00:09:49] And once again, welcome, our viewers. Now let's go to
[00:09:52] Idlib, specifically the industrial city, which is witnessing a remarkable
[00:09:56] turnout from industrialists and investors
[00:09:59] for the services it provides and facilities for investors,
[00:10:02] Yara. Exactly. Today we will learn about Bab al-Hawa Industrial City
[00:10:05] and the most important industries in it with our guest
[00:10:09] Engineer Madin Rashid, Head of the Investment Department in
[00:10:18] Good morning, Engineer Madin. First, tell us about the most important industries in the industrial city of Bab
[00:10:22] al-Hawa.
[00:10:24] The most important industries in Bab al-Hawa, in Bab al-Hawa Industrial City,
[00:10:28] are pharmaceutical industries,
[00:10:31] which constitute the main pillar of the local industry. The number of establishments
[00:10:37] has reached nine establishments, seven of which are factories
[00:10:40] producing human medicines. So far, the number
[00:10:44] of operating factories has reached four
[00:10:48] factories, and three factories
[00:10:50] are under construction, God willing.
[00:10:54] In addition to
[00:10:57] the existence of PVC bar manufacturing, which recently
[00:11:00] entered Syria and was an alternative to aluminum
[00:11:03] and wood in construction equipment. These
[00:11:06] are the most important industries in Bab al-Hawa
[00:11:10] Industrial City. Yes, okay.
[00:11:13] investment. Today, the industrialist definitely needs
[00:11:18] Does Bab al-Hawa Industrial City provide all the necessities for industry
[00:11:21] and the requirements of investors?
[00:11:24] Yes. The city was equipped with a complete infrastructure
[00:11:28] to serve the industry, including an electricity network,
[00:11:31] water, optical fiber cables, roads, and sewage
[00:11:33] systems. Beautiful, yes. So what distinguishes
[00:11:37] investment today if we are to talk about this
[00:11:41] industrial city, Bab al-Hawa City, as an attractive
[00:11:44] environment for investment today, and of course, we are talking
[00:11:47] about an area close to the Turkish
[00:11:51] border? The industrial
[00:11:55] city is located near the strategic Bab al-Hawa border crossing
[00:11:59] with Turkey, which connects the city
[00:12:03] to Europe as well. This
[00:12:06] location played the biggest role in the city's development due
[00:12:09] to the ease of importing necessary raw materials
[00:12:13] for industrial facilities and securing production
[00:12:15] requirements, in addition to the ease of export if
[00:12:18] there is an intention to export. Aha, sure, and the geographical location
[00:12:22] changes the equation of investment. Okay,
[00:12:26] every industrial work faces obstacles
[00:12:29] and challenges. Are there specific challenges
[00:12:32] facing industrialists in this city, and how are you
[00:12:36] dealing with these challenges?
[00:12:39] So far, thank God, there are no challenges
[00:12:42] due to addressing the difficulties and challenges
[00:12:46] facing industrialists directly as
[00:12:50] a result of the close relationship
[00:12:53] that has developed between China
[00:12:57] since the first moment of establishing the industrial city. Aha, this
[00:13:00] contributed to overcoming all obstacles
[00:13:02] and difficulties for industrialists.
[00:13:06] Aha. Okay, you mentioned that the infrastructure was worked
[00:13:10] on very diligently, and there are no
[00:13:13] challenges in this city. How are the two most important
[00:13:17] elements for industry, electricity
[00:13:19] and water, being provided? Are they provided continuously?
[00:13:23] Is there a challenge in providing electricity and water
[00:13:28] There is no challenge.
[00:13:31] Electricity is available in the city, and water
[00:13:34] is available continuously 24 hours a day.
[00:13:37] We are currently working on extending a dedicated electricity supply
[00:13:41] line to the city from the Al-Kamouna electricity
[00:13:44] substation to ensure the stability of electricity
[00:13:48] or the stability of the electrical current in the city. There are also
[00:13:51] two water wells to supply the city.
[00:13:59] Aha, so electricity
[00:14:02] There is no reliance on alternative energy, such as solar
[00:14:06] energy. Of course, most factories, a large percentage
[00:14:09] of factories, rely on solar energy. Solar energy is
[00:14:12] a way to reduce
[00:14:16] the factory. Many large companies or establishments
[00:14:20] have started or relied on solar energy
[00:14:23] to provide electricity for industry. Aha.
[00:14:27] Okay, here we move to another very
[00:14:31] important point. As an investor
[00:14:33] and a business owner, I want my
[00:14:37] factory or plant to be in this area. What
[00:14:40] facilities can you provide to me to facilitate
[00:14:43] work and entry into the industrial zone in
[00:14:47] Bab al-Hawa? Aha. The most important thing for us here in the industrial city
[00:14:51] is the ease of administrative procedures and following up with the relevant
[00:14:54] authorities continuously. We have no problem,
[00:14:57] God willing, in terms of subscription, providing the necessary documents
[00:15:01] for subscription, delivering the
[00:15:04] plot,
[00:15:07] in the first moments in planning
[00:15:11] and starting production. Aha, meaning great flexibility
[00:15:14] and bureaucracy, we can say, is at its minimum.
[00:15:18] Okay, keeping up with the market today always requires renewal.
[00:15:21] Are new and specialized industries being introduced?
[00:15:25] In your opinion, which industries are truly promising today?
[00:15:29] Currently, we have a factory
[00:15:32] under construction, which is a factory for the production
[00:15:37] type of drug is very limited
[00:15:39] in Syria. We are currently starting
[00:15:45] factory and establish it. We also have another factory, a metallic can
[00:15:48] factory suitable for food use.
[00:15:52] This industry
[00:15:55] of the few industries
[00:15:58] in Syria. Promising industries, we hope, God willing,
[00:16:01] to establish in the coming days factories
[00:16:04] that will operate
[00:16:06] in the electronic field. Aha, okay.
[00:16:10] As the head of the Investment Department in Bab al-Hawa
[00:16:13] Industrial City, what are your future
[00:16:16] plans to improve the investment situation in
[00:16:20] Bab al-Hawa City?
[00:16:24] for subscription in Bab al-Hawa Industrial City, we
[00:16:27] are about to start expanding the city from the eastern
[00:16:30] side. The current expansion is 39
[00:16:33] hectares. This expansion is considered
[00:16:37] the first phase of the expansion stages in the industrial city, God willing.
[00:16:40] Now, the Turkish company Al-Isra
[00:16:43] has studied
[00:16:46] the expansion, and currently,
[00:16:49] we will start, God willing, implementing
[00:16:52] the expansion to secure the necessary plots
[00:16:55] for industrialists interested
[00:18:01] From Idlib to Hama, and also as a step towards development,
[00:18:05] Hama city hosts the activities of the first Syrian
[00:18:08] Radiological Conference under the title "Developments in
[00:18:12] Radiology," with the participation of a select group of doctors
[00:18:15] and radiology specialists from various Syrian
[00:18:18] governorates. It is very beautiful. The conference also included medical expertise
[00:18:22] from outside the country, in addition to national expertise and the latest
[00:18:25] methods and techniques used in diagnosing diseases. To talk
[00:18:28] more about this conference and its importance, we welcome our guest, Dr.
[00:18:32] Wael Mohammed Al-Mahmoud, Head of the Board of Diagnostic
[00:18:36] Radiology and Imaging and Head of the Radiology Department at the Faculty of Medicine
[00:18:39] at Idlib University, and also Head of the First Radiological Conference held in
[00:18:43] Hama, which we will talk about now in our segment.
[00:18:46] Good morning and welcome, Doctor. Tell us at the beginning
[00:18:50] about the importance of holding the first Syrian Radiological Conference
[00:19:01] just a fleeting scientific event. It is actually a message that
[00:19:04] Syrian medicine, specifically radiology, is still alive
[00:19:08] and capable of recovery. Of course, why was Hama specifically
[00:19:12] chosen to be the starting point for this message? Because it is, in fact, a city
[00:19:15] that carries the scent of history and knowledge and has a special symbolism
[00:19:18] in the hearts of all Syrians, as you know, especially
[00:19:21] its people who suffered greatly during the dark period of Assad's
[00:19:26] conference in Hama today is a message in itself, a message of life
[00:19:30] and victory for knowledge over injustice, and an affirmation that this city, which
[00:19:34] was wounded for a long time, is capable today of being a beacon
[00:19:37] of knowledge again. From here, through this conference, we wanted to reconnect
[00:19:41] the bridges between Syrian
[00:19:43] the country, and to lay the first stone
[00:19:47] for a permanent and continuous scientific path, God willing. Aha, of course,
[00:19:50] Doctor, this conference was held under the title "Developments
[00:19:54] in Radiology." Tell us about the most important scientific
[00:19:58] axes and topics that you are highlighting and addressing
[00:20:02] in the conference.
[00:20:04] In fact, the conference covered four main scientific axes.
[00:20:08] The science of radiology is very vast, and in fact, it is not possible to cover all its branches
[00:20:12] in one conference only, but it will be a series of conferences, God willing.
[00:20:16] In this conference, we covered musculoskeletal radiology,
[00:20:19] neuroradiology, interventional radiology, in addition to
[00:20:24] interesting topics that concern radiologists in their daily practice.
[00:20:28] Aha, meaning this diversity in
[00:20:32] the conference, there is no doubt, enriches the discussion. How does
[00:20:35] the participation of elite radiologists and Syrian experts
[00:20:39] from inside the country and even outside contribute to the exchange of
[00:20:43] expertise, Yes, that's right. In fact, this
[00:20:47] participation is the essence of the conference's idea. Because the Syrian
[00:20:52] carries with him modern knowledge and techniques,
[00:20:55] and his colleague inside the country has practical experience and resilience
[00:20:58] in the most difficult circumstances. When these meet under one roof,
[00:21:02] in fact, a real exchange of knowledge will happen, and together we will build
[00:21:05] a permanent bridge between Syrian expertise wherever it is. Aha.
[00:21:09] But as long as we are talking about developments
[00:21:13] specialty specifically, how do you assess the state
[00:21:17] of radiology today in Syria, and to what extent
[00:21:21] are modern technologies in the field of medical imaging, if we are talking
[00:21:24] about MRI, CT scans,
[00:21:30] available in
[00:21:32] Syria? Let's be frank,
[00:21:35] Miss. In fact, the specialty went through very difficult
[00:21:38] years, like all other specialties
[00:21:41] in Syria. Entire departments were damaged, entire hospitals
[00:21:45] stopped working, devices broke down, and a large number
[00:21:48] of competencies emigrated. But despite that,
[00:21:52] those doctors who remained continued to perform their duty
[00:21:55] faithfully. And today, we are in a true
[00:21:58] rebuilding phase, where we are working to restore institutions and rebuild
[00:22:01] and
[00:22:04] gradually return, God willing, to a level that befits the history of Syrian
[00:22:07] medicine. God willing, Doctor, especially since we are talking about
[00:22:11] technology, which is certainly the biggest concern for medicine. What role
[00:22:15] can artificial intelligence play in improving the accuracy and speed of radiological
[00:22:18] diagnosis as well?
[00:22:22] In fact, in the world today, all the talk is about artificial intelligence.
[00:22:25] It cannot be denied that it has become a true partner for the radiologist.
[00:22:28] Of course, there is no substitute for it as an aid in detecting
[00:22:32] subtle lesions that may be missed by the human
[00:22:35] eye. Of course, it will facilitate the diagnostic process in emergency
[00:22:38] cases. Of course, we are talking from experience.
[00:22:42] It also raises the accuracy of medical decisions. Of course, and we in Syria
[00:22:45] are greatly looking forward to gradually introducing
[00:22:49] this technology into our future
[00:22:52] plans, God willing. And we have started working on it theoretically
[00:22:55] now, God willing. Aha, okay, Doctor, does the conference include
[00:22:59] new Syrian experiments or research that could
[00:23:03] also add value to the medical
[00:23:05] specialty? Yes, that's right. In fact, we received
[00:23:09] a number of Syrian research and studies that were
[00:23:12] evaluated within the conference itself, because the conference was, in fact,
[00:23:15] peer-reviewed and had points, as specialists in this field know.
[00:23:19] So, they were subjected to strict scientific arbitration and dealt with real local
[00:23:25] this is, in fact, an important indicator for us, because it proves that scientific
[00:23:28] research is still alive in Syria despite all these
[00:23:31] circumstances. Aha, especially the outputs.
[00:23:34] So, at the end of such meetings, they remain the most important. What are the recommendations
[00:23:38] that the conference seeks to achieve? How can they be translated into practice
[00:23:42] after these activities end? And did you participate
[00:23:46] in external conferences as well?
[00:23:48] In fact, regarding the recommendations, like any
[00:23:51] important conference, we came out with clear
[00:23:54] practical recommendations. The most prominent of them
[00:23:57] is the unification of specialized training programs,
[00:24:00] improving the training environment for resident doctors, which is our current
[00:24:03] major concern. In fact, activating the role of the Syrian Radiologists'
[00:24:06] Association, encouraging scientific
[00:24:09] research, and benefiting from the experience of expatriates, as
[00:24:12] we mentioned earlier. Of course, these recommendations will not remain, God willing,
[00:24:16] ink on paper. Rather, we will submit them to the relevant
[00:24:20] authorities and will work to follow up on them periodically
[00:24:22] to ensure their implementation,
[00:24:26] Doctor, from reality
[00:24:30] reality, this specialty today in Syria is not in a good
[00:24:34] state. Is this situation due to
[00:24:37] specialty or a lack of the required
[00:24:40] and advanced technologies that are needed
[00:24:43] in Syria today?
[00:24:46] In fact, the specialty, as you know, went through
[00:24:50] the period of the Syrian revolution, like other
[00:24:53] specialties, as we mentioned earlier, facing very great difficulties due to
[00:24:56] the lack of expertise, the emigration of cadres, and worn-out equipment
[00:25:00] that has become very old, in fact. Therefore,
[00:25:04] we faced many difficulties, and residents currently face, as
[00:25:07] we mentioned, many difficulties in terms of training and providing specialized
[00:25:10] cadres. The necessary ones to provide
[00:25:16] challenges, but we are gradually working with the Ministry
[00:25:20] of Health and the Ministry of Higher Education to move
[00:25:24] forward in establishing a foundation that we can rely on in the future,
[00:25:29] training. Yes. So, Doctor, what was the role of the doctors
[00:25:33] who came from outside the country? Did they offer their expertise in using
[00:25:36] radiology equipment and also their expertise in general in this specialty during
[00:25:40] the conference? Of course,
[00:25:44] indeed, the science the outside
[00:25:47] world, outside Syria, due to our circumstances
[00:25:50] as mentioned, developed greatly in the past
[00:25:55] modern technologies were introduced. Aha.
[00:25:58] Of course, we hope, God willing, to acquire some of these devices and introduce
[00:26:02] these technologies into Syria gradually, God willing,
[00:26:06] so that we can try to gradually reach
[00:26:10] what the world has reached in the science of radiology in
[00:26:12] our environment. And this work actually requires work on several
[00:26:16] levels. We do not say that the issue is easy, but
[00:26:19] it requires a lot of logistical support and financial
[00:26:23] support, in fact. So, God willing, we strive to secure this
[00:26:27] gradually. How will these devices
[00:26:29] be secured? How will they be introduced and provided
[00:26:33] today in Syria within the available capabilities
[00:26:36] today? And are there some parties,
[00:26:39] some organizations that have taken
[00:26:43] it upon themselves
[00:26:46] context?
[00:26:48] In fact, the Ministry of Health is constantly striving
[00:26:51] to
[00:26:53] use or, I mean, to acquire
[00:26:56] devices through, of course, there might
[00:27:00] be supporters and intermediaries
[00:27:03] and organizations that are still cooperating
[00:27:06] or trying to open channels with the Ministry of Health. The Ministry of Health
[00:27:09] is open to all these parties,
[00:27:11] in fact.
[00:27:15] Support actually needs several parties,
[00:27:18] as we mentioned earlier. And the main issue, frankly, is no secret
[00:27:22] to anyone, which is the renovation of departments and maintenance of what exists. All
[00:27:26] of that costs large sums that cannot be bypassed or overlooked.
[00:27:29] So we are facing an equation that requires planning
[00:27:33] and patience, and at the same time, genuine financial support
[00:27:36] from the state and supporting and donor
[00:27:40] entities, because willpower alone is not enough to buy an MRI machine
[00:27:43] or renovate a completely damaged radiology department, so that
[00:27:47] That's right, with the openness you talked about, Doctor, and the rapid
[00:27:51] development in diagnostic technologies, how can
[00:27:53] we truly keep up with these developments and provide them within the available
[00:27:57] capabilities in hospitals now?
[00:28:00] Exactly, a very important question. Of course, this requires work on several
[00:28:04] levels, and everyone is responsible for this.
[00:28:08] Of course, first, we can
[00:28:10] talk about securing the necessary support to gradually upgrade
[00:28:13] equipment, as I mentioned. Our equipment has become old
[00:28:16] and worn out in most hospitals
[00:28:19] in Syria. The other matter that must be discussed, frankly, is investment
[00:28:23] in training cadres to operate these technologies
[00:28:26] efficiently. This is a very important matter,
[00:28:29] in fact. Thirdly, I believe cooperation, as you mentioned,
[00:28:32] with international bodies
[00:28:35] to transfer knowledge and technology.
[00:28:38] And I reiterate that this requires
[00:28:42] willpower and a lot of money. Of course, new doctors are a real
[00:28:46] asset, and they are our next project. In fact, we
[00:28:49] rely on them, God willing, and it is our responsibility to train
[00:28:52] them well, and it is the responsibility, of course, of this message that I send
[00:28:55] to all our doctors and professors in all hospitals in Syria
[00:28:59] to be up to the responsibility so that a resident
[00:29:03] doctor is well-trained and can be relied upon later,
[00:29:07] God willing. Of course, we are proud of all these cadres and we are proud
[00:29:10] of the efforts made for more
[00:29:14] development and to keep pace with everything new in the world of medicine.
[00:29:17] We hope that the legacy is not
[00:29:21] light at all. It is a heavy legacy to overcome
[00:29:23] these difficult challenges regarding
[00:29:51] Amidst the daily and increasing challenges faced by cities due to
[00:29:55] traffic congestion and the chaos that may
[00:29:58] accompany vehicle movement, attention turns to young people's ideas
[00:30:01] and innovations that contribute to improving daily
[00:30:05] life. Exactly,
[00:30:08] congestion that It is quite congested in many
[00:30:12] Syrian governorates. Therefore, from here
[00:30:15] specifically, the idea of a student from the Faculty of Applied Engineering
[00:30:18] began, and he worked on creating
[00:30:22] traffic congestion and organizing traffic flow.
[00:30:25] More details in the following
[00:30:27] material.
[00:30:32] Honestly, my first and last goal was to help
[00:30:35] the Syrian state in the field of digital transformation and solve
[00:30:39] the problems we are suffering from, which is the traffic problem with the increase in the number
[00:30:43] of enormous cars that have arrived in the Syrian capital, Damascus. So
[00:30:47] it was the only suitable area for me to help the country with this traffic congestion problem.
[00:30:51] I make all traffic intersections
[00:30:54] and signals open and close through
[00:30:58] AI and algorithms.
