  • Investigation Future Planning of Railway Networks in the Arabs Gulf Countries
    M. E. M. Najar & A. Khalfan Al Rahbi, Int. J. Transp. Dev. Integr., Vol. 1, No. 4 (2017) 654–665 INVESTIGATION FUTURE PLANNING OF RAILWAY NETWORKS IN THE ARABS GULF COUNTRIES MOHAMMAD EMAD MOTIEYAN NAJAR & ALIA KHALFAN AL RAHBI Department of Civil Engineering, Middle East College, Muscat, Oman ABSTRACT Trans-border railroad in the Arabian Peninsula dates back to the early 20th century in Saudi Arabia. Over the recent decades due to increasing population and developing industrial zones, the demands are growing up over time. The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is now embarking on one of the largest modern cross-border rail networks in the world. This is an ambitious step regarding the planning and establishment of the rail network connecting all the six GCC countries. This railway network will go through at least one city in each country to link the cities of Kuwait in Kuwait, Dammam in Saudi Arabia, Manama in Bahrain, Doha in Qatar, the cities of Abu Dhabi and Al Ain in the United Arab Emirates and Sohar and then Muscat in Oman in terms of cargo and passengers. The area of investigation covers different aspects of the shared Arabian countries rail routes called ‘GCC line’ and their national rail network. The aim of this article is to study the existing future plans and policies of the GCC countries shared line and domestic railway network. This article studies the national urban (light rail transportation (LRT), metro (subways) and intercity rail transportation to appraise the potential of passenger movement and commodity transportation at present and in the future.

  • Doing Business in the United Arab Emirates
    DOING BUSINESS IN THE UAE Dubai, © Sophie James DOING BUSINESS IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES Abu Dhabi, © Philip Lange DOING BUSINESS IN THE UAE INTRODUCTION Since the discovery of oil in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) more than 40 years ago, the country has undergone a profound transformation to a modern state with a high standard of living. This growth was for a large extent driven by income from oil and gas resources. Today the UAE is more than an economy based on oil and gas. Successful efforts at economic diversification in trade, logistics, banking, tourism, real estate and manufacturing have sig- nificantly reduced the portion of GDP based on oil and gas output. The diversified growth environment that is being created in the UAE provides abundant business opportunities. The UAE’s liberal climate towards foreign cooperation, investment and modernisation has prompted extensive diplomatic and commercial relations with other countries. With its prime geographical location at the crossroads of the major Western and Eastern economies, its established and efficient air and sea connections and developed infrastructure, the UAE is an exciting prospect for any business looking to establish a foothold, or expand, in the MENA region or wider Africa and Asia. In 2012, mutual trade between the Netherlands and the UAE was worth more than 3,2 billion euros according to figures from Statistics Netherlands (CBS). Total trade between the Neth- erlands and the Gulf region (Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain) was worth over 14 billion euros. While the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the Netherlands’ biggest trading partner in the Gulf region (6.9 billion euros), the UAE is the largest export market (nearly 2.4 billion euros).

  • UAE at 41 Uaeinteract
    UAE at 41 On 2 December 2012, the United Arab Emirates celebrated its National Day, marking 41 years since the state was established in 1971. For citizens and expatriate residents of the seven component emirates of the federation, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ra's al- Khaimah, Ajman, Umm al-Qaiwain and Fujairah, it has been a year during which the country has continued to thrive and prosper, despite the economic crises that have affected much of the rest of the world and the political turmoil that has continued to engulf much of the Middle East region. Located in the south-east corner of the Arabian Peninsula, with coastlines both on the Arabian Gulf and on the Gulf of Oman, the seven emirates, formerly known as the Trucial States, came together following the withdrawal of Britain after 150 years. Led by the UAE's founding father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the seven rulers decided to form a federation, to work together to bring prosperity and development to their people. Aided by the vision of Sheikh Zayed, the UAE has since emerged as one of the fastest- growing and most stable countries in the region. Sheikh Zayed died in 2004, after over thirty years as President. The process of growth, however, has continued under the leadership of his son and successor as President, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, their fellow members of the UAE's Supreme Council of Rulers and the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

  • Planning Abu Dhabi: from Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim a Dissertation S
    Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City By Alamira Reem Bani Hashim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair Professor Michael Southworth Professor Greig Crysler Summer 2015 © Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Abstract Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair The overarching objective of this research project is to explore and document the urban history of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is organized as a comparative study of urban planning and design processes in Abu Dhabi during three major periods of the city’s development following the discovery of oil: (1) 1960-1966: Sheikh Shakhbut Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule (2) 1966-2004: Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule; and (3) 2004-2013: Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s rule. The intention of this study is to go beyond a typical historical narrative of sleepy village-turned-metropolis, to compare and contrast the different visions of each ruler and his approach to development; to investigate the role and influence of a complex network of actors, including planning institutions, architects, developers, construction companies and various government agencies; to examine the emergence and use of comprehensive development plans and the policies and values underlying them; as well as to understand the decision-making processes and design philosophies informing urban planning, in relation to the political and economic context of each period.
