The circular stated that, in light of the formation of the National Committee to prepare for the celebration of the Baptism of Jesus Christ in 2030—chaired by the Prime Minister to set general directives and policies, as well as oversee planning and preparations for the event—all ministries, official departments, public institutions, public universities, municipalities, Greater Amman Municipality, and government-owned companies must refrain from engaging in any communications or activities related to the celebration outside the framework of the National Committee, as it is the sole national entity authorized to manage all preparatory work for this event.
The circular highlighted the significance of the event, which will enhance the Kingdom's global standing as a religious tourism destination, representing the Land of Baptism and a message of peace. It stressed the importance of unifying the efforts of national entities alongside local and international partners to adopt strategic plans and projects and follow up on their implementation.
The Prime Minister had chaired on Monday the first meeting of the high-level National Committee to prepare for the celebration of the 2,000th anniversary of the Baptism of Jesus Christ in 2030. The committee's membership includes ministers, religious and community leaders, and representatives from relevant entities.
