He commended the ASBU and its leadership for the achievements made in the past 50 years, including the building of a professional and independent union coping with the growing technological developments.
The ASBU meetings, held in Khartoum on Dec 5-12, indicated that “our country has recovered and pressed ahead towards the construction process,” Al-Burhan added.
