 When I started the Arabic Nadwah in April 2004, my main objective was to attract Arabs who live in Hong Kong to read Arabic poetry. Later on, I focused more on non-Arabs who are interested in Arabic poetry or poetry in general. Translating poems from Chinese and English into Arabic and vice-versa became the core of the Arabic Nadwah which turned into a trilingual poetry session and sometimes we read poetry in more than three languages. Now there are poets from different nationalities attend the Nadwah and their attendance is the real fuel that keeps it running. All the attendants, poets or non-poets, should have the real credit for the existence of the Arabic Nadwah. What is really important is the role that the Arabic Nadwah is playing now as a bridge between different cultures. In a time that everything seems blurry, and chaos dominates the scene, understanding is what we really need. All Arabic poets are welcome to send their works for publication subject to be suitable for our site.
