AMMAN — Jordan Chamber of Industry President Ayman Hatahet on Sunday said the Kingdom is going through a deep economic crisis that requires collective collaboration from the private and public sectors to avert the country further consequences. Hatahet also voiced confidence in Jordan's ability to overcome the economic dilemma and achieve considerable growth rates, citing an institutionalised partnership between the public and private sectors as the best mechanism for that end. He said that industrial exports, according to certificates of origin issued by Amman, Irbid and Zarqa chambers of industry, have grown by 5.5 per cent during the first six months of 2014 to reach JD2.6 billion compared with JD2.4 billion for the same period of last year.
