In its editorial entitled "Constructive Results of His Highness's Tour," Al-Sharq said that HH the Amir's European tour culminated in positive and constructive results and a great welcome for strengthening relations between Qatar and each of the Kingdom of Sweden, the Kingdom of Norway and the Republic of Finland. HH the Amir's tour and fruitful discussions with the leaders of the three countries, the atmosphere of friendship and understanding that prevailed, and the agreements and memoranda of understanding that were signed during the tour, contributed to strengthening bilateral relations and opening broader horizons for expanding and developing joint work in various fields, Al-Sharq added. HH the Amir's tour reflects the State of Qatar's commitment to strengthening its international partnerships and expanding the scope of its cooperation with friendly countries. The tour constituted an important step in the path of expanding the State's political and economic relations and the establishment of a strategi c partnership with these countries, Al-Sharq concluded. In the same context, Al-Arab considered HH the Amir's recent European tour an important strategic step that enhances Qatar's relations with the three countries and opens new prospects for joint cooperation in several fields, mainly technology, education and clean energy. Under the headline "European Tour... Qatari Strategic Step," Al-Arab said the tour reflected Qatar's efforts in expanding the network of its relations with various world countries, diversifying its economic and political partnerships, and building sustainable relations with developed countries that enjoy strong economies and successful development models. HH the Amir's official visits to the three European countries were an important step towards strengthening strategic relations between Qatar and the countries of Northern Europe. These relations are not merely economic and commercial, but extend to include cultural, environmental and humanitarian fields, Al-Arab concluded. Commentin g on another topic, English newspaper, The Peninsula, highlighted the Cabinets approval on Wednesday of the Civil Service and Government Development Bureaus (CGB) proposal on working hours, flexible working arrangements and remote work, considering it a pivotal decision for employees in the government sector. In its editorial titled "A pivotal Decision for Employees," The Peninsula said the initiative, set to be implemented on September 29, 2024, reflects the governments commitment to fostering a work environment that aligns with the diverse needs of its workforce while upholding operational efficiency. The introduction of remote work options, allowing up to 30% of employees in each administrative unit to work from home for up to a week annually, and for a month annually for Qatari mothers with children under 12, demonstrates a progressive shift toward work-life balance, it added. This flexibility can significantly enhance employee well-being, reduce commuting stress, and improve overall productivity, the paper stressed. (QNA) Source: Qatar News Agency
