Sane’s filters

On building a new house, those close to the owner start offering free advice to help him avoid mistakes they had made, such as taking care of the quality of electrical wiring because of its significance to safety. However, the most important piece of advice they offer is about installing a central water filter.

Nevertheless, regardless of the quality of that central filter, one will still have to install smaller ones in the kitchen or for water coolers to get the purest drinking and cooking water and to ensure the safety of family members. Therefore, we see many houses install more than one filter next to each other.

The idea of using multilayered filters was the same used by former Minister of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs Yaaqoub Al-Sane, with a slight difference that he did not use it in his house - it is up to him if he does not even install a single filter there. Sane used the idea at his ministry, where he formed four committees to decide who deserves to be appointed in leading positions.

The first committee Sane formed is responsible for listing candidates who match the conditions set for the position. The second committee is responsible for checking the first committee’s work. The third committee interviews candidate and finally the fourth committee endorses the final selectees. These four committees act as a four-process filter to make sure only the best get through.

Four-layer water filters at home ensure that drinking water will be purer than spring water on top of Everest and Tibet. Similarly, Sane’s four filters are the main reason behind severe criticisms and accusations pointed at Sane, questioning the committees’ decisions!
