Magical majlis
The ballroom at the Dorchester Hotel was transformed into a festive diplomatic majlis as over a thousand guests crowded in to congratulate HE Khaled Al Duwaisan, the Ambassador of Kuwait and the popular dean of the diplomatic corps on his country’s national day. Renowned for their hospitality, the Al Duwaisans did not disappoint with a mouthwatering Middle Eastern banquet, music and glittering ice sculptures.
