Optimism is leaders’ language
As you can see, we are living in tough times, with the swiftly changing times shifting all things around us, especially in the economic sphere. As a result of these rapid changes, one feels a sense of achievement when one searches for something and finds it, overcomes the currents to feel one’s empowerment, and to savor the results of one’s efforts. That’s the euphoria Saudi Arabia is witnessing these days.Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, a harbinger of change, gave a new impetus to Saudi Arabia’s empowerment story with a momentous speech last week. The dynamic speech provided Saudis the most cheerful news as the leadership seeks to change the lives of the nationals for the better. I believe, Crown Prince underlined his future plan to improve citizens’ lives and this led to...

Optimism is leaders’ language

G20 summit and hope in post pandemic era
“Once you choose hope, anything’s possible,” said Christopher Reeve. As for Nelson Mandela, he summarized the relationship of hope and peace of mind in one phrase when he said: “May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.”Hope and tranquility are an emotional state and whenever the mind embraces this, it takes its holder to an exalted position. I narrate this to illustrate our state of mind in the post coronavirus pandemic period.There is no doubt that peoples around the world will share with us almost the same feeling as we approach the G20 leaders summit, which will be held virtually over two days on Nov. 21 and 22, under the presidency of the summit’s leader Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman.The convening of the 15th session of the summit under the...

What’s left when integrity is lost?
Somebody made an incisive observation that largely holds true. The statement was that in looking for people to hire, you look for three qualities: Integrity, intelligence and energy. And if you don’t have the first, the other two will kill you.Why is integrity important? Most significantly why today. We are raising this question in the backdrop of the recently concluded presidential election of United States of America where this integral characteristic was at a premium. But it is not only in US, but also globally that integrity is lacking.Integrity is actually a trait that lends strength to our moral fiber, which in turn shapes our character. The test of our integrity is constant in the many and different ways we walk in our lives and reflects what we do and how we really think.When we...

The gold in Jazan is green!
Prince Muhammad Bin Abdulaziz Bin Muhammad Bin AbdulazizDeputy emir of JazanONE of the cultural treasures of Saudi Arabia is located in the southwestern part of our country, which is rich and distinct. The cultural arch is amazing with its diversity and uniqueness in the Jazan region. Although my testimony is about the region that I fell in love with, this impression prevails on any visitor of the Red Sea coast, mountains, and vast plains of Jazan.When you turn your face toward the highlands of Jazan, Khawlani coffee trees will captivate your attention to the mountainous regions of Jazan such as Al-Dayer, Fifa, Al-Aidabi, Haroub, Al-Aridha, and Al-Raith that are deeply rooted in the epochs of history, originality, and perfection and where no voice is louder than the sound of coffee, as...

The key question is how Biden will deal with the region’s issues
At a time when the Democratic candidate Joe Biden is all set to assume the presidency of the United States of America, some of the American leftist media and the media around us have begun to ask some questions. This is mainly about how Biden would deal with the region, and its countries, especially the countries of Arab moderation? In this respect, everyone tries to instill some sort of reassurance among his followers, whether they are the leftists or those associated with political Islam.First and foremost, Biden is a political candidate whose main concern and goal is the American voters and their interests and not the region, especially since the US foreign policy had not figured in the recent presidential election campaign.Now, Biden has come to power with a political career spanning...

Saudi Arabia’s anti- corruption crackdown
In such a competitive world, corruption is a real problem and must be solved globally. For that governments must deal with it seriously as an acute internal crisis.Sadly, Saudi Arabia is one among many countries that faces corruption. But luckily our government has a qualified system and strategy to fight it — (Naming and shaming the corrupt institutions, situations, numbers, corrupt tactics and positions).Saudi Arabia, which is fighting corruption in an organized manner, only last week brought up 123 criminal cases on corrupt people. Under the lead of Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman, the anti-graft body is seriously processing cases with no boundaries and, this is a subtle slap in the face of those who are corrupt yet!SR400,000,000 was the amount that was realized from one of those...

KAUST – the fancy city
King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Jeddah started as a dream for King Abdullah, may Allah have mercy on him, and this dream became a reality. Once established the fancy city has become a place in Saudi Arabia where all dreams come true for humanity.I no doubt believe that the political and economic stability of Saudi Arabia was the main reason to found KAUST here, for it accommodates almost 110 nationalities of different race, culture, and color in private housing.For many years KAUST was isolated from any contact from those outside its perimeter, and it was not in a position to show off its real capability due to the limits of the then regulations, which does not resonate with Saudi Arabia’s culture.However, with the change in regulations KAUST is shining...

Iran and its priorities of hostility
During the end of the 1970s, the region was faced with two sharp contradictory models: the Egyptian-Israeli peace, and the Khomeinist Revolution creating a “turban” state and transforming politics in the region from the art of possible into a fatwa of halal (permissible) and haram (forbidden.)At that time, the Arabs boycotted Egypt in defense of the Palestinian cause, but they found themselves boxed in with fetters around them as the Khomeini regime unleashed his ambitious political Islam coupled with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and that was labeled then as “jihad.”At that time, the region was facing an Iranian revolution that claimed to be Islamic, the resurgence of political Islam, the jihad in Afghanistan, the Iraqi-Iranian war, and the trading with the Palestinian...

COVID-19 and travel outside Saudi Arabia
The decision to suspend domestic and international flights was one of the many important decisions taken by the Saudi government following the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic and it helped the Kingdom achieve remarkable success in containing it. It was a right and decisive decision at that time just like what the rest of the world did.Many countries have now resumed their international flight operations with strict COVID-19 precautionary measures in place. This is because of the fact that the world cannot continue to remain in a state of disruption for long and humans cannot remain locked down indefinitely.What happened in our case was to grant exemptions for travel abroad for a number of specific groups in accordance with certain definitive conditions. But ever since the announcement...

The power of influence
CONTROL over our lives is something we all aspire to have. But in a universe in which everything is so much interconnected, none of us has an absolute control over anything. Rather, what we all have in abundance is influence.But what is influence? To put it briefly, it means to have the power to affect and manipulate things as a thought or decision, and in order to be an influencer, you need to be worthy and trusty.Let me share an inspiring story that deserves to be told as it resonates with the idea of “being influential.” It underlines the importance of Saudi Arabia at the global level and how the Kingdom plays an important role in shaping general opinion and attitude and creating transformational changes in the world.On the other hand, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s...
