Did you try a search? I'm sure it's been discussed.

Hi
I did a search; there isn't much apart from some "score settling" between some members of staff...
Cheers VS |

| I am surprised that there has not been a plethora of posts asking about this Shangri-La near one of the former Neutral Zones on the Northern Borders of the Kingdom. |

I am looking for some information about Hafr Al-Batin. There are only very few information I could find from popular seacrch engines and most of the redirect to 'Holiday Inn'.
The management must be good, as it is managed by KFUPM guys and from my experience, the HR ppl seems to be excellent.
From google images, it seems that the place is almost like a village. I am curious to know how this place is like? I am more more concerned about the place than the college. 've they got any supermarkets/eat outs / shopping malls? Is it a safe place to live? |

| The Pleasure Domes and Palaces of Hafr Al Batin can be likened only to those of Xanadu decreed by the Mighty Khan Kublai. |

In that sense, the above statement can be applicable for the whole country. Can some one shed lights on the pros & cons of the place.
Why do you think so Scott? Is it a remote vllage ? or the ppl really bad?
Keen to hear from ppl who are actually living there or lived there. |

| A small town not a village. No different from any others in KSA. |

Dear scot47,
But that was conditionally-based on GOOD behavior.
