''The humanitarian initiative will serve medical science in the Arab World,'' Al Qutami said.

The UAE's offer came in a message sent by Al Qutami to ISBT's recent conference in Netherlands.

It was conveyed by Dr. Amin bin Hussein Al Amiri, Director of Blood Transfusion and Research Department, Health Ministry, and Regional Manager of the 26-member East Mediterranean Office for Blood Transfusion Services.

''The initiative underlines the UAE's high sense of responsibility towards and commitment to Arabs and to provide basic medical services needed by nationals and residents in the UAE,'' Dr. Al Amiri said.
