The visit was organised by Sablat Oman whose activities are sponsored by Bank of Beirut for the year 2017-2018.
The visit included the Department of Orthopaedic Accidents (traffic accidents) to check on the status of patients and give them guidance; as well as visiting the Paediatrics Department where gifts were presented to the children. Artists Saleh Zaal, Saud al Darmaki and the former Omani National Football Team player Khalifa Ayel joined Sablat Oman and the Bank of Beirut teams in this visit. Ramy Zambarakji, the Chief Executive Officer of Bank of BeirutOman Branches, expressed his happiness and gratitude that members of the bank were present at this unique event. “This event is part of the Bank’s social responsibility efforts while contributing in all service activities that lead to a better community” he said. MAJAN College once again demonstrated its strong stance against all forms of academic misconduct through the all-day activities that took place in the college to mark the International Day of Action against Contract Cheating. Contract cheating is a form of cheating in colleges and universities that happens when students submit academic work that was actually done by another person, usually for payment.
Both staff and students of the college participated enthusiastically in the day of action. Staff of the college, including the Dean, Dr Maha Kobeil, helped students to understand the concept of ‘contract cheating’ and to see why the practice is so reprehensible. A graffiti wall allowed individuals to express their thoughts on cheating and academic integrity, which is becoming a major problem in higher education in many countries. Some example comments from Majan students were: “No legacy is as rich as honesty. No cheating” and “I will earn my degree myself.” The college also provided a forum for debate via social media. ACROSS the Middle East and Africa region, official importer and dealers of new Maserati vehicles, will now offer a five-year warranty and service package on all cars sold, upping the ante in the luxury sports car segment.
With distinctive Italian style and breath-taking design features — and now with this value-added offer for the region, the brand is further underlining its key characteristics of design, exclusivity and performance. The comprehensive service contract which is available across the range, also covers engine oil and air filters, front and rear brake pad and discs kits as well as drive belts in addition to few select consumables. Maserati connoisseurs can choose from the sports executive sedan — the Ghibli; the flagship sedan — Quattroporte; the sporty GranTurismo; the four-seater convertible — GranCabrio; and the only SUV in the range — Levante.
“The point our vehicles leave the many showrooms across the region is not the point where Maserati experience ends — in fact — it is the very opposite,” said Luca Delfino, General Manager for Maserati Middle East and Africa.
“Maserati aims to offer exceptional after sales care and experience as we recognise this is such a crucial part of vehicle ownership. With this new package, we are cementing our commitment to our drivers further. Our new vehicles only need to be serviced once every 20,000 kilometres or 12 months — whichever comes first — offering our valued clientele peace of mind on our vehicle craftsmanship and performance,” comments Vito Caputo, Aftersales Director for Maserati Middle East and Africa.
