Qatar replaces energy minister Attiyah

For future reference, Zawya is a reliable source - its an affiliate of Dow Jones and in the ME is knows as Zawya Dow Jones.

are sada's here in power to hold the thumb ministries??

you didn't get me , i got what has happened.

i am confused because wondering,

is this change good to Mr,al-attiyah? or bad?

and as a rank which is better energy ministry or diwan?

and yes , another question, what happened to the ex-chairman of emiri diwan,or it is new position?

fine genesis

with a PhD from UK made him authentic for this post ;)

coz he is been given a new post..HH the Emir Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani issued on Tuesday the Emiri decision No. 2 of 2011 appointing a Chairman of the Emiri Diwan.

H.E Al Attiyah was Qatar’s Minister of Energy and Industry. DR Al Sada, had the post of Minister of State for Energy and Industry since 2007 & was the 2nd Man in the sector ever since. He has decades of experience in the Oil and Gas business in Qatar and a PhD from the UK.

Dont know what to say. Big change though!

i am confused now :$

H.E.Dr.Mohammed saleh Al-sada has been the Minister of state for Energy & Industry Affairs since 2007.

In a limited cabinet reshuffle, Qatar's Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani appointed Attiyah as chief of his staff, QNA reported

The Persian Gulf nation is “just at the start of negotiations with Sinopec,” Deputy Prime Minister Abdullah Bin Hamad Al-Attiyah said today in a telephone interview. He declined to provide the quantity of supplies being discussed.

This is funny: two hours later he was fired.

It's Hamad's Shuffle.

Esp for Oil and Gas professionals!

Hiding from Khattak n Khanan ;)

But what was Rizks doing in Ningarhaar?

shall i put the name of culprit?

it was Rizk, later on he named it Bela :P

Why the news is not appearing in this page? Is it (zawya) a reliable source?

CrySpy...you can also break the news of your goat being kidnapped by your neighbour in Ningarhaar.

Za marra

as it is 'Qatar' Living...

is this a breaking news to share on QL?

might be some health issues...

he is one of the strongest and smartest memeber of the cabinet..

There are no details whether Mr. Attiyah has been given some other portfolio or not. He was one of the strongest member of the cabinet. I wonder what prompted H.E. The Emir, to replace him.
