Issawi visited the Imad Din Zinki Secondary School for Boys in Central Madaba, which His Majesty ordered its maintenance and rehabilitation during his recent visit to the governorate, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. 

During a tour of the school facilities, Issawi listened to a briefing about the school's main needs, problems, and requirements for rehabilitation. The school, which has 340 students from the first and second secondary grades, comprises 11 classrooms.

In line with the Royal directives, comprehensive maintenance will be carried out at the school, including classrooms and facilities, as well as providing it with necessary furniture and equipment, and rehabilitating the adjacent pitch.

In the Faisaliah area, Issawi checked on a project for medical supplies and an apparel factory, which is being implemented as part of the initiative of satellite branches and production units, in accordance with His Majesty's directives during his meeting with leaders and dignitaries of the Central Badia.

During the tour, Issawi reviewed the progress of the project, which has reached a completion rate of 70 per cent. The scheme is the first of its kind in Jordan and is capable of producing some five million pieces of medical supplies and apparel, accounting for 70 per cent of the local market's needs.
