Pakistan International School-Jeddah (PISJ) is in the process of upgrading its transportation facilities, said Fazal Subhan, chairman of the school’s managing committee.
He said an acute shortage of school buses was causing grief to students and their parents.
Speaking at an event where 14 new buses were added to the school’s fleet, Subhan said: “The managing committee is planning to auction off buses that need total overhaul because repairing them is an expensive proposition. However, buses that need minor repairs or have bad air-conditioning will be sent for maintenance.”
New buses, he said, will be used on long-haul routes. Mohammad Afzal Gondal, who is in charge of the committee’s transport section, said with the addition of the new buses, the total number of the school fleet now stands at 64.
School Principal Mohammad Bilal also spoke on the occasion.

Saudi Arabia welcomes US decision to designate Muslim Brotherhood as global terrorist entity
- The Saudi foreign ministry said in a statement on X the Kingdom affirms its condemnation of extremism and terrorism
DUBAI: Saudi Arabia welcomed on Wednesday a decision by the United States to designate the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon as a global terrorist organization.
The Saudi foreign ministry said in a statement on X: “The Kingdom affirms its condemnation of extremism and terrorism, and its support for all that achieves the security of Arab countries, their stability and prosperity, and the security of the region and the world.”
The US administration labeled the groups in Jordan and Egypt as “specially designated global terrorists”, and blacklisted the Lebanese organization as “foreign terrorist organization” (FTO).
The decision on Tuesday came weeks after President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing his administration to start the process of blacklisting the groups.
