Interview with Khaled S. Al-Sultan, Rector (or President) of King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals (KFUPM) in Saudi Arabia. Interesting look into e-learning in the region and in particular into future administrative structures. Al-Sultan, in particular, is not in favour of a multi-national online university. "There are too many factors that we must take care of, too many decision to be taken, and from my experience, it will not be successful. We cannot wait for people to share their resources, and go through bureaucratic procedures." PDF.
