كرامه ... الرجل البلوماسى الفطرة يغادر مسقط

I regretted that I have been away from Muscat and was not able to attend the farewell party of our sincere friend Karama. However I found comfort in the expressive words of brother Elfateh Elginaid.

By his high sense of duty and friendly attitude Karama has set a bright example for Sudanese Diplomatic and Consular staff everywhere about serving the Sudanese community with efficiency, equality and respect.

Karama has to feel proud of the appreciation expressed by everybody in Muscat for his faithfulness. The Ministry of Foreign affair is similarly to feel proud about one of its staff members achieving such success and gaining love of all.

Though this is not an occasion for expressing feelings of regional affiliations, however I have a special relationship with Karama as a Kordofanist from our beloved town of Elnuhood..

Best wishes for Karama and his family and happy retirement with relatives and friends in
Kordofan Elgharra Um Khairan Barra[/I
