Gulf to issue rights reports
COUNTRIES in the GCC may start to issue their own annual reports on terrorism, human rights and human resources to offset those compiled by international organisations.
GCC Secretary General Abdulrahman Al Attiyah proposed the move at the seventh GCC consultative meeting on Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
He claimed there is a need to counter reports on the GCC by international organisations because they “may be inaccurate”.
“My proposal was well received by the leadership of GCC states at the meeting,” he said following yesterday’s Press conference at the Foreign Ministry, in Manama.
A new department is now expected to be formed at the GCC General Secretariat specifically to issue reports, which would be compiled in co-operation with relevant government and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in member states.
Another of his proposals, which he said received the backing of Gulf leaders, was to reassess and upgrade GCC strategies for economic co-operation.
“The move aims to take into consideration changes in legislation in member states, as well as global developments,” he said.

Shouldnt this have been posted under the “Need a Good Laugh” thread in the forums? It is most certainly a joke! I would rather see a GCC report on what the various leaders and members of the ruling establishments have been doing with the wealth of their nations. Drinking and gambling sprees in Europe during Ramadan? New and bigger palaces here in the US? That would make for much more interesting reading.

That was the funniest post I’ve ever read! I was giggling as I was reading the article, then scrolled down and burst out loud…
You’re an absolute legend!
Thanks:)

Asalaamo alaykum!
I actually think it’s a good idea. It would be great to compare information from say, Amnesty International with what GCC nations say about themselves. If the divergence is too great, it will make the GCC nations look like lying fools. At the end of the day, I think that there is a chance that this might be used to bring up and face some real issues that need to be addressed.
It can’t hurt…
