HRH gave the directions while chairing a meeting of the Coordination Committee at the Riffa Palace, where he stressed the need to continue the housing achievements and services for citizens, reported BNA citing a senior MP Ahmed Sabah Al Saloum.

Prince Salman stressed that citizens were the focus of the development process and all service projects.
