AMMAN — Amman Governor Saad Shihab on Monday received USAID Deputy Mission Director Lewis Tatem and discussed ways to steer the agency’s support towards projects and programmes of high national priority.

Tatem said target fields of cooperation are water, healthcare and economic sectors, adding that the support will focus on underprivileged areas that suffer from lack of basic services.
