Scouting was introduced in Lebanon by two teachers, Abdul Satar and Abdul Jabar El Kliairi. They came to Lebanon from England in 1912 and established the first Scout troop in the school where they worked. This troop had lots of activities later including a trip to Istanbul, Turkey, where they met the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] sultan (head of state). Members of this troop played a great role in spreading Scouting in Lebanon and other countries. | Scouting was introduced in Lebanon by two teachers, Abdul Satar and Abdul Jabar El Kliairi.
