Support for Qatar's leadership continues to soar in the wake of the unjust blockade imposed on Qatar as evident in the unveiling of the permanent 'Tamim Al Majd' mural by Ali Bin Ali Group at its headquarters on Tuesday.
"We love and Support Qatar","Stand Tall Qatar',"Long Live Tamim the Glorious","We love Qatar" were some of the messages that were written at the 'Tamim Al Majd' portrait wall at the Ali Bin Ali Headquarters.
Ali Bin Ali Group Chairman Adel Ali bin Ali, Vice-Chairman Nabeel Ali bin Ali and the artist of the portrait Ahmed bin Majed al Maadheed led the employees to write encouraging words for Qatar and its leadership.
The three also did hand prints on the mural using green, yellow and orange colours.
The mural will be a permanent feature at the ninth floor of the building.
Vice-Chairman Nabeel Ali bin Ali said the 9-metre by 7-metre artwork will be there permanently for generations to see.
"We have decided to put this portrait here permanently. After 20 years, they will remember and know what had happened and thateverybody stood with Qatar," he said.
Nabeel Ali bin Ali said the occasion was really important because they wanted to stand in solidarity with Qatar."We are one of the leading companies in Qatar and we are supporting our government and we are standing with them," he said.
Praising the Emir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al Thani, Nabeel said,"The Emir is one of the most powerful leaders in the world."
The mural was signed in different languages, including Arabic, English, Hindi, Greek, French and Polish just to drive their point home.
Hussein Mahir, a Sri Lankan and an employee of the company, said,"Qatar is my second home and I am happy to support the country."
Another employee, Manal, a Moroccan said,"I have been in Qatar for the past nine years and I am happy living here."
Another employee from the French community said that they signed for Qatar, the Emir and the people.
