HE the Advisory Council Speaker underlined that Doha Metro, which is considered one of the most advanced transport projects in the region and uses the latest technology in this field, is a great addition to the country's achievements, and sends a strong message to anyone trying to obstruct the development process in the country by marginal battles away from the basic objectives of building, progress, glory and serve the homeland.
