LOCATION AND POPULATION The Gulf region, located between Europe and the Indian sub-continent, remains a strategically important area of the world with over 65% of the world’s oil reserves. The main trading block in the region is the Gulf Co-operation Council (“GCC”) comprising Saudi Arabia, The United Arab Emirates (“UAE”), Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar. Although not as firmly integrated as the European Union, there is now a common import tariff (generally 5%) and plans to introduce a common currency by 2010. (It is likely this will be linked to the US dollar as most GCC currencies currently are). To the north of the Gulf are Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon, where there are large scale developments to house the increasing population along with substantial investments going into infrastructure. Across the Arabian Sea are Iran and the Indian sub-continent. All these areas have enormous commercial potential and they all trade with the GCC states. The Gulf region has one of the fastest growing population rates in the world. The high birth rate, coupled with the wealth resulting from the oil reserves and now the large scale gas production, has created a dynamic high growth economy in the region.

  • 1 Editorial Bahrain Is Considered to Be One of the Most Open Countries in the Region from an Economic and Financial Point Of
    Market Overview Bahrain Editorial Bahrain is considered to be one of the most open countries in the region from an economic and financial point of view. The Independence of Economic Freedom Report for the year 2007 ranked Bahrain the 39th on a world scale of liberal economies and 2nd out of 17 countries in the Middle East/North Africa region. By pursuing a strategy aimed at liberalizing the economy, diversifying sources of national income and attracting investments, the country has been able to make noticeable progress in the past years and further developed its best performing sectors. In addition, Bahrain has strengthened its prominence as the region’s hub for financial institutions and Islamic banking. Bahrain’s real estate market witnessed major growth in the past few years triggered by the economic boost from oil revenues, expansion investment policies coupled with the opening of the real estate market to GCC & foreign investors. Given world political events in Europe and the US, many GCC investors choose to re-invest their capital in the region. Bahrain is considered one of the most attractive countries to invest due to low inflation rates and transparent legal system with minimal barriers to foreign investments. According to data available from the Survey & Land Registration Bureau of Bahrain, the real estate market in the 1st quarter of 2008 has experienced consistent growth in terms of activity and number of transactions traded in the past few years.This increase is indicative of the ongoing demand for real estate properties given the increase in foreign investment, excess Engel & Völkers Middle East , Dubai 2008 1 liquidity in the market and the government’s liberal policy towards non-Bahrainis to ownership laws.

    HAQ: Movement of Liberties and Democracy‐ Bahrain ﺣﻖ: ﺣﺮآﺔ اﻟﺤﺮﻳﺎت واﻟﺪﻣﻮﻗﺮاﻃﻴﺔ- اﻟﺒﺤﺮﻳﻦ www.haaq.org, Email: [email protected] HAQ submission to the OHCHR: Universal Periodic Review MOTIVATED CHANGE OF DEMOGRAPHY.. INFRINGEMENTS OF POLITICAL RIGHTS and INADEQUATE LIVING STARDARDS 19 November 2007 Movement of Liberties and Democracy in Bahrain‐ HAQ is concerned about the systematic infringements of political, economical and social rights of Bahrainis by the local Authorities. Irrespective of the provisions in the Bahraini legislature to respect and maintain these rights, the practices on the ground result in marginalization, disfranchise, poverty and deprivation of the majority of Bahrainis, as well as the fear of extermination of cultural identity of the indigenous Bahrainis. On April 25th, 2006, the Bahrain has expressed its pledge to respect and maintain human rights values to the UN when applying for membership of its Human Rights Council, became party of many conventions, acceded the ICCPR and ICCES, and interpreted such commitments in many of its legislature. However, such vows and commitments were not respected on practice, as easily exemplified by the regular reports and frequent statements produced by many UN bodies (Appendix A: List of citations for reports of UN Bodies) and renowned human rights organizations (See Appendix B: List of citations for reports by human rights organizations). In addition to the basic rights of expression, assembly and association reported in many reports mentioned in Appendix B, HAQ will shed light on three major rights which have grossly been violated, related to decent human livelihood and existence of Bahrainis. These include genuine participation in the public affairs (political rights), the right for the existence of adequate living standard and the politically motivated change of demography and its relationship with the other relevant rights.
