The long-awaited housing project for journalists is set to kick-start soon.
The master plan of the project has been completed and is awaiting approval, Bassim Al Hamar, the Housing Minister, told the President of Bahrain Journalist Association, Isa Al Shaiji, yesterday.
The Housing Ministry, he said, is expecting project clearances by the end of this year.
Upon receiving necessary clearances, the ministry, he said, will start working on the project at Hoorat Sanad, the project site.
Explaining further, the minister said, “the Housing Ministry plans to execute the project in multiple phases.”
“The project, in its first phase, will have 50 housing units,” the minister said during a meeting with the BJA board members.
“The project is part of the comprehensive development march spearheaded by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa,” the minister told BJA President Isa Al-Shaiji and board members.
The minister wished BJA members every success, lauding the national role played by the Bahraini press. Al-Shaiji affirmed his readiness to cooperate with the Housing Ministry, especially for ensuring social stability for journalists.
