New director appointed to the City board

[Prestwich_Blue]

We appear to have a new director on the City board.

Mr Abdullah Al Khoori, described as a "government employee". There's a few people of that name in Abu Dhabi so don't know much about him.

Is there anyone in the UAE who can throw some light on who he is and what he does?

He's a board member of the Abu Dhabi Media Zone Authority, which licences and regulates all media activity, and a director of a media company. So I'm guessing he's there to guide us on brand management and our media activities.

It's shortened to Executive Affairs Director at conferences, or the EAD to his mates.
