For his part, President of the SCCS, Fawaz Junaid, expressed his appreciation for Jordan's warm hospitality, affirming that the memorandum marks an important step toward opening new avenues of cooperation between the contractors of both nations.
The two syndicates will work on strengthening partnerships through joint conferences and seminars, as well as studying the unification of systems and regulations to serve the profession's interests.
