“I had the privilige to work with Charles during his stay in KSA. He is, not only a socially skilled person, but also very intelligent. We faced many difficult moments, on different side of the fence, and he was able to find solutions that no one of us could see. He has taught me new creative approaches of financial and operational issues, and I am looking forward to work with him again, either as a colleague or partner in any business venture.”
