Walid Tantawy, "The Falcon"
Those who hold the embers of education ” The Falcon “
(1)
Your writing reaches far, Walid …a mind that challenges and an intellect that gives light
Walid Tantawy
The features of the Egyptian are in his heart, as though God sent him to be a pen that writes so that words may shine
I met him on a joyful occasion, and the joy carried a taste of passion for quality in education
Yes, for the mother of quality and I, after long absence, long for quality as though longing for a loaf of bread made by our mother's own hands
Walid knows no impossible; he thinks and he creates
Mr Walid is the pivotal link between the Deputy Minister and the various departments and bodies. He has a striking ability to organise work, manage time and set priorities in a way that ensures speed of delivery and accuracy of execution without compromising the quality of performance. He also has a strong sense of responsibility and a full understanding of institutional work and what it requires.
When I cannot manage something …and I consult those around me …I tell them: look, that is enough, I am going to ask Mr Walid. And indeed his judgement is sound; that is one of God's blessings upon him
Long may your giving continue, Walid, and long may God's blessings remain with you
Walid is also marked by calm in his work, wisdom in his dealings and mutual respect with colleagues at every grade, which has earned him the trust and appreciation of leaders and colleagues alike. He does not simply run an office; he runs an integrated system of work built on commitment, effective coordination and precise follow-up.
He is also known for his constant concern to improve working methods, simplify procedures and solve problems in a positive spirit, while fully observing the rules and regulations. This has been clearly reflected in the efficiency of overall performance and the smoothness of communication within the workplace.
Mr Walid Tantawy's distinction comes not from his position or from his readiness to help everyone, but from his professional character, his high ethical standards and his dedication in carrying out his duties, which make him an honourable example of the public servant who combines competence, commitment and humanity.
When words sing, their sweetest letters must include Walid Tantawy
A special tribute to Mr Walid Tantawy, in appreciation of his dedicated efforts and his well-deserved distinction. We pray that his giving and his excellence may long continue
I know that we are all proud that he is one of us and one of the pillars of the education system
Some of us may be letters and some of us may be suns for the sake of the country
For the written word can change the course of a decision and can support those who make decisions
and the sun lights the path and rises with our wishes
So every good wish to that elegant word and that rising sun, Walid TantawyPhotograph 1 from: Walid Tantawy, The Falcon Photograph 2 from: Walid Tantawy, The Falcon
