Mr Khalid, you've already left a mark for generations to learn and emulate a lot from what you've achieved in your life. You're already a role model for the youth not only in Saudi Arabia but elsewhere in the world as a large number of expatriates that worked in the Kingdom know about your personality and a deep understanding that you've you have shown by highlighting their plight through your column in Arab News. Mr Mo has asked some very good questions that let's us know about your personality and how you became the Editor-e-Chief from the day one of your interview at Arab News, the leading newspaper of Saudi Arabia.

#KhaledAlMaeena a Living Legend, a most respected name in #KSA media, a veteran #Saudi Media person. Very enlightening interview, while I watched-it was so much to recall; felt like living again some of the very memorable moments😍

[@whistleblower786]

He has held back many serious issues for fear of the government and he may be out behind bars. Or get disappeared like Jamal Khashogi. Someday the hidden truth will come in front

Really worth listening to a great person, with a great history of Arab media, Ustaz Khalid Al Maeena and his brother Ustaz Tariq are the pioneer of bringing expatriate problems on the papers and media . ONE OBJECTION WHY THE interviewer is asking about the retirement of a young man ? ( Ustaz Khalid, we have to learn a lot from his experience . ) Mo .. please keep it up and bring in the show such type of noble people .

[@ajbatterjee2264]

[@here.a7med]

انا احب ذلك انه جميل 🥀

[@hamzacholassery7502]

Great.

[@Natalyatta]

great content, great guests and great hosting, but having watched many of the episodes, it it very depressing not finding any guests with success stories who didn't already come from rich or high status backgrounds, most have had exceptional help or opportunities that gave them a head start which regular folks/citizens would never dream of having. Not saying this as anything particularly against them since it seems this is how things are going all over the world.

[@nobelacademyforonedayexams8774]

Very lucent not a lackadaisical interview I came across regarding this issue thanks for giving lustrous things in a very gregarious way Thanks to usama bhai one of my relatives owner at Mehfil Restaurant for sharing a precious link looking forward to getting more ecstasy in future too.
