These accomplishments are all the more remarkable due to the great distances between cities and the rugged terrain of much of the country.

New Saudi Transport

The price of oil has dropped and, in a world where environmental pressures mean global powers are determined to stop burning it as fuel. Saudi Arabia has launched a wide-reaching social and economic initiative, Saudi Vision 2030, with an ambitious goal to develop the economy across industries that include technology, healthcare, tourism, education and finance.
