The dynamic capital hosts diplomatic, Islamic, political, economic, financial, trade, scientific, technological and educational institutions and is a fast developing national, regional and international center. Arriyadh is also a hub of administration with national cultural and heritage bodies and activities. the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman Bin Abdulaziz (may God bless him) has over many decades actively supported Arriyadh and its remarkable development. Today, with his Crown Prince, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Interior; and the Deputy Crown Prince and Defence Minister; King Salman is ably guiding the development of the Kingdom, its capital and provinces and ensuring the welfare, security and prosperity of the nation’s population. Evidence of this is seen in the range of visionary development and infrastructure projects, which are helping to transform the Kingdom and the wider region. The development process in Arriyadh does not focus on specific areas or sectors. Rather it embraces a wide and comprehensive range of projects and needs. These include ambitious programs in transportation. The King Abdulaziz Public Transport Project in Arriyadh City is the largest of its kind and will provide a network of metro and bus services in the capital. The King Khaled International Airport Development Project will considerably expand passenger and airfreight capacity; and national and regional projects to develop railroad and road networks will soon offer remarkable improvements in transportation within the Kingdom and GCC. The King Abdullah Financial District, the City of Communication and Information Technology, nano- technology and research centers are also emerging and helping to provide new and exciting opportunities for our youth. Other major projects in health, education, environment, infrastructure, housing, manufacturing, sport, welfare, culture and heritage are helping to make Arriyadh a favored destination of leading projects and secure inward investment. The Investment Climate Report is part of the ongoing efforts of the High Commission for the Development of Arriyadh to annually provide up to date information and highlight the numerous and emerging opportunities provided by the city. As well as revealing the progress in our capital and nation as a whole, this report in its English edition, is a welcome and valuable reference and resource for those around the world who are keen to learn of the investment opportunities in Arriyadh as well as for the general reader interested in the remarkable story of our capital and nation.

The visionary and ambitious plans, programs and projects for the city also open the doors wide to welcome local, regional and international investors in a wide range of economic sectors. Arriyadh’s favourable position is enhanced by a comprehensive range of strategic mega projects, which are being executed under the leadership and supervision of His Royal Highness Prince Faisal Bin Bandar Bin Abdulaziz President of the High Commission for the Development of Arriyadh, may God bless him. These multi- sectoral projects, along with localisation and diversification of the economy are promoting and accelerating Arriyadh’s pace and quality of development.

  • Saudi Arabia Under King Faisal
    SAUDI ARABIA UNDER KING FAISAL ABSTRACT || T^EsIs SubiviiTTEd FOR TIIE DEqREE of ' * ISLAMIC STUDIES ' ^ O^ilal Ahmad OZuttp UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF DR. ABDUL ALI READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1997 /•, •^iX ,:Q. ABSTRACT It is a well-known fact of history that ever since the assassination of capital Uthman in 656 A.D. the Political importance of Central Arabia, the cradle of Islam , including its two holiest cities Mecca and Medina, paled into in insignificance. The fourth Rashidi Calif 'Ali bin Abi Talib had already left Medina and made Kufa in Iraq his new capital not only because it was the main base of his power, but also because the weight of the far-flung expanding Islamic Empire had shifted its centre of gravity to the north. From that time onwards even Mecca and Medina came into the news only once annually on the occasion of the Haj. It was for similar reasons that the 'Umayyads 661-750 A.D. ruled form Damascus in Syria, while the Abbasids (750- 1258 A.D ) made Baghdad in Iraq their capital. However , after a long gap of inertia, Central Arabia again came into the limelight of the Muslim world with the rise of the Wahhabi movement launched jointly by the religious reformer Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab and his ally Muhammad bin saud, a chieftain of the town of Dar'iyah situated between *Uyayana and Riyadh in the fertile Wadi Hanifa. There can be no denying the fact that the early rulers of the Saudi family succeeded in bringing about political stability in strife-torn Central Arabia by fusing together the numerous war-like Bedouin tribes and the settled communities into a political entity under the banner of standard, Unitarian Islam as revived and preached by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab.
