‘Fatal handling of education’ – ARAB TIMES – KUWAIT NEWS – Arab Times Kuwait English Daily

My friend, former ambassador, says that Mr. Youssef Abdel Moati taught him the Arabic language in Salah El-Din Intermediate School in the late 1950s, and he remembers that he spoke only English besides his Arabic, and that he was a good teacher, and after his retirement he worked as a researcher at the Research and Studies Center.

Abdel Moati was known for his affiliation with the Muslim Brotherhood, and was among those who fled early from the brutality of the Nasser regime in Egypt, and perhaps this affiliation helped him subsequently to obtain the Kuwaiti citizenship, to be one of the few Egyptians who had this honor.

He was also able to naturalize his children, even though the naturalization law at his time did not allow this, and perhaps his relations with Muslim Brotherhood also facilitated his affairs, as usual.
