President's speech

صلاح باتيس وقف أويس القرني

Mr. Salah Bates

كلنا يعلم المكانة العظيمة التي يحظى بها اليمن واليمنيون في قلوب الناس جميعا، فهم أصل العرب وأرق الناس قلوبا وألينهم أفئدة وبلدهم ذات الموقع الجغرافي جنوب غرب الجزيرة العربية، على مضيق باب المندب الذي يعتبر موقعا استراتيجيا هاما لجميع دول العالم، إضافة إلى ثروات البلاد الطبيعية ومناخها المتنوع.

ويبقى الإنسان اليمني أهم ثروة وعامل فاعل في التنمية بما يتميز به من صفات وتحمل وصبر وتأقلم مع ظروف الحياة المتقلبة وخلال الهجرات المتتالية لليمنيين على مر التاريخ شهدت لهم كل شعوب الأرض بالتعايش والتسامح والقدرة على الاندماج والفاعلية، إضافة إلى الانضباط واحترام قوانين البلاد التي يهاجروا إليها.

كما يعتبر رأس المال اليمني المهاجر ثروة هائلة، حيث أصبح اليمنيون في دول الخليج وشرق افريقيا وجنوب شرق آسيا وأمريكا وأوروبا من كبار المستثمرين، وبعضهم أصبحوا من صناع القرار في تلك البلدان.

هذا الإرث والحضارة والتاريخ الذي يمتلكه اليمن لا شك أنه دافع كبير لأهل هذا البلد العظيم لإحداث تنمية شاملة وازدهار واستقرار وتطور لا حد له، لذا اخترنا أن نبادر في هذه الظروف العصيبة فمن رحم الألم يولد الأمل ومن وسط الظلام يبزغ الفجر.

وأطلقنا هذه المبادرة التشاركية والفكرة الطموحة المتمثلة بوقف أويس القرني تُرك لليمن السعيد.

أيها الكرام .. مستقبل بلادنا يبشر بخير عظيم، فأبناء اليمن في كل مكان بالعالم يحققون نجاحات كبيرة نراها كل يوم فمنهم العلماء والمخترعون والمتميزون في ميادين العلم والفن والرياضة والإبداع نسعى أن يكونوا الداعم الرئيسي لرؤية

وأهداف الوقف للوصول إلى اليمن الجديد، وإعادة صياغة الهوية الوطنية الجامعة، ونشر ثقافة التعايش والتكافل ونبذ الاختلاف والفرقة والعصبية بأنواعها، ونكون #كالجسد_الواحد

هيا بنا نقرأ الماضي بعمق ونحلل الواقع بدقة ونستشرف المستقبل بتفاؤل وأمل، ونكسر حاجز اليأس ونستثمر الفرص ونتجاوز المخاطر ونضع رؤية شاملة لتنمية الوطن وبناء قدرات أهله وتأهيل كوادره وتطوير مؤسساته الرسمية والأهلية، والاستفادة من التجارب الناجحة التي نشاهدها حول العالم.

دعوتي لكل أبناء اليمن ومحبيه بكل مكوناتهم وفئاتهم وانتماءاتهم أن نلتف حول هذه المبادرة ونبني معا وقف أويس القرني ليكون انطلاقة عملية تشاركية نوعية لبناء اليمن السعيد بعون الله.

صلاح باتيس

رئيس الوقف

We all know the great significance that Yemen and Yemenis hold in the hearts of people everywhere. They are the origin of the Arabs, the kindest of people in hearts, the softest in nature, and their country is located in the southwestern part of the Arabian Peninsula, on the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, which is considered a strategic location for all countries in the world. In addition to the natural resources and diverse climate of the country.

The Yemeni people remain the most important asset and active factor in development, characterized by qualities of endurance, patience, and adaptation to changing life circumstances. Throughout the successive migrations of Yemenis throughout history, witnessed by all peoples of the earth, they have demonstrated coexistence, tolerance, the ability to integrate, and effectiveness, in addition to discipline and respect for the laws of the countries they migrate to.

The Yemeni migrant capital is also considered a huge wealth, as Yemenis in the Gulf countries, East Africa, Southeast Asia, America, and Europe have become among the top investors, and some of them have become decision-makers in those countries.

This heritage, civilization, and history possessed by Yemen undoubtedly serve as a great impetus for the people of this great country to bring about comprehensive development, prosperity, stability, and limitless progress. Therefore, we chose to take the initiative in these difficult circumstances, for from the womb of pain comes hope, and from the midst of darkness emerges dawn.

We have launched this collaborative initiative and ambitious idea represented by the Oweis Al-Qarni Endowment, left for a happy Yemen.

Dear all, the future of our country promises great goodness. Yemenis everywhere in the world are achieving great successes that we witness every day. Among them are scholars, inventors, and distinguished individuals in the fields of science, art, sports, and creativity. We strive for them to be the main supporters of the vision and goals of the endowment to reach the New Yemen, to redefine the national identity, spread a culture of coexistence, solidarity, reject differences, divisions, and all kinds of sectarianism, and to be #Like_One_Body.

Let us delve deep into the past, analyze the present accurately, and look forward to the future with optimism and hope. Let us break the barrier of despair, seize opportunities, overcome risks, and develop a comprehensive vision for the development of the nation, building the capacities of its people, qualifying its cadres, and developing its official and civil institutions, and benefit from successful experiences that we see around the world.

I call on all the sons and daughters of Yemen and their lovers, with all their components, categories, and affiliations, to rally around this initiative and collectively build the Oweis Al-Qarni Endowment to be a qualitative collaborative launch for building a happy Yemen with the help of Allah.
