The Kuwait Boy Scouts Society has won three seats of the Financing Fund of Arab Scouts for the first time in its history. The seats went to Abdullah Al-Tureiji, Ibrahim Al-Baghli and Khawla Al-Haswai who is the first woman to invade this field and win a seat in the fund since its inception over 35 years back. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the first meeting of the fund board of directors held in Kuwait, the fund's chairman Abdullah Al-Fahad said the conferees had addressed an array of significant issues aiming at propping up the scout movement. Al-Fahad, who was elected as such during the scout gathering, said he was so delighted to serve the Arab scout movement, applauding Kuwait's unremitting efforts to host Gulf and Arab scout activities. He touted the scout movement as a core source of education since it inculcates in the minds of young generations patriotism, dedication and perseverance.
