Prince a former Liberian youth leader is expressing hope that by having more young Liberians study in Israel, it will not only provide opportunities of exposure to ”best practices” in the areas of water, agriculture, technology, defense and the hi-tech industries which are crucial to Liberia’s development, but also, it has its significance for impacting and facilitating a cross generational relationship between the youthful population of both nations, one which could give a new meaning to the great friendship that has always existed between Liberia and the State of Israel, especially for the trajectory of years ahead.
