Bio
Mazen Malas
I had the good fortune of working directly for Mr. Catalan for more than three years at Afaq for industry. In those years, I was privileged to get to know two aspects of his rich personality, the first was Mr. Catalan the visionary leader with his continuous pursuit of setting an example for what leadership and true management mean. I was continually impressed by his resolve and determination in leading Afaq at what can only be described as the toughest of times our country has seen. The second aspect was Mr. Catalan the accomplished engineer, with his impressive technical knowledge and diverse up to date interests, making him an inspiring and an understanding team leader. Truly a remarkable character with so much to offer. I really learnt a lot from him and I hope I'll have the chance to work with him in the future.
