Legal challenges and regulatory responses vis-a-vis anti-dumping in Saudi market
Humans inherently strive for happiness. They work hard to earn money, embark on adventures, pursue advanced degrees, seek prestigious positions, and aim for great salaries to build large houses, buy magnificent cars, and wear fashionable clothing. Yet, despite having wealth, amenities, and fame, many fail to experience genuine happiness.People take different routes in their search for happiness. Some find it in money, others in physical pleasures. A third group discovers it in fulfilling the soul’s desires, while a fourth finds it in acquiring knowledge, building communication, and serving the needs of others.It is therefore essential to distinguish between pleasure, which is often temporary, and happiness, which is a lasting feeling.Happiness can be puzzling. We often find it more in...

Stability first: Saudi Arabia’s diplomatic message to the world
Artificial intelligence is no longer a purely technical matter, nor merely a development in tools of administration and productivity. It has gradually become an influential actor in shaping public decision-making and a silent component embedded within the fabric of policy, economics, and communication.As AI is increasingly deployed across critical sectors—from justice to education, from security to media—the urgent need arises to recalibrate the relationship between humans and algorithms, not only through the lens of efficiency, but also through the imperatives of sovereignty, accountability, and fairness. In this context, AI governance is no longer an optional regulatory step; it is a national and strategic priority.Notably, Saudi Arabia—positioned at the forefront of future-focused...

AlUla’s families at the heart of Vision 2030: A model for regenerative growth
Starting significant transformation inside a healthcare company is no easy task. Along with strategy and leadership, it calls for tenacity, evidence-based judgment, and a strong awareness of the human factor.Rising healthcare expenses, an aging population, and the weight of chronic diseases put institutions all around under more and more pressure to fundamentally rather than just incrementally change.The World Health Organization estimates that, at $9.8 trillion in 2022, global health spending accounted for about 10% of the world GDP.In the Middle East, Saudi Arabia alone allocated more than $50 billion to healthcare, representing 17% of its total budget.Many systems nonetheless suffer with inefficiency, inadequate patient experiences, and burnout among healthcare professionals despite...

Trump’s Riyadh visit: A signal of global recalibration
The premise that legal modernization requires dramatic reform is both overstated and misread. In many cases, the more enduring reforms are the quieter ones — the administrative, the procedural, and the contractual. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's introduction of a Unified Legal Contract for Lawyers is a case in point.What is being reformed is not the concept of legal advocacy, nor the essence of client representation, but the structure that holds it together. The reform requires that the relationship between lawyers and their clients be formalized, standardized, and digitally registered through Najiz, the national digital justice platform.The Minister of Justice and Chairman of the Saudi Bar Association, Walid Al-Samaani, has launched the Unified Contract for Lawyer Fees to regulate...
