MideastYouth.com launches an Arabic version

January 7th, 2009Rima (Syria)

meyarabicI think many of you do not know me yet, so I’ll use this opportunity to introduce myself to you all.

I’ve been following topics on the website for months as they kept dragging my attention, until I decided that it’s important to spare some time in this busy life for an honost word.

And I volunteered assisting in hosting and technical issues related to this site’s server as it’s my educational experience.

Enough about myself, I’m honored to announce that MideastYouth.com continues the hard work and starts a new Arabic website to open a platform for Arabic speaking youth to engage in discussions concerning Middle Eastern and North African matters.

Check it out. Please join if you are interesting in being a contributor.

    This is great! :)

    I cannot wait for the Fari version to launch as well. Both the Arabic and Farsi versions will enrich the quality of our discussions and expand our reach.

    We are working hard now on launching the Farsi version. We will achieve this sometime in February.

    Ah Esra’a, I didn’t know about the Farsi version, the only Farsi website I thought of was the Afganistan’s website that you guys created, I read the news there, it is a very wonderful website and the news is of a very good quality, the tone is respectful , it is a very good job, I can imagine how the Farsi website would look like :) Thank you Esra’a !
