TOKYO: Jordan’s new government, led by Jaafar Hassan, appointed Lina Annab minister of tourism and antiquities. Annab has been serving as Jordan’s ambassador to Japan since 19 June 2019. She is a graduate of Georgetown University in the United States.

Annab’s new role as the minister of tourism and antiquities in Jordan’s new government comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities.
