# Saudi Arabia's Transformation: MBS and Vision 2030

## Introduction

In an era of global uncertainty, Saudi Arabia is emerging as a modern great power, undergoing an unprecedented transformation under the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS).

Since his appointment as crown prince in 2017, MBS has spearheaded Vision 2030, an ambitious plan to revolutionize the Kingdom's social and economic landscape.

This report examines the remarkable reforms that are reshaping Saudi Arabia, challenging long-held Western perceptions about the country's strict laws and conservative society.

## Economic Transformation

Vision 2030 represents a fundamental shift in Saudi Arabia's economic approach, moving away from oil dependency toward a diversified, sustainable economy.

The plan has launched comprehensive economic and financial reforms targeting transformation into one of the world's top 20 economies.

Key initiatives include:

- The Fiscal Sustainability Program, maintaining stable spending directed toward strategic economic transformation
- Enhanced productivity and increased private sector contribution
- Development of the "third sector" to create new economic opportunities
- Strategic utilization of Saudi Arabia's natural resources, geographical location, and cultural heritage

Despite global challenges including pandemic repercussions and geopolitical tensions, the Saudi economy has demonstrated remarkable resilience, enabling the Kingdom to confront international crises while maintaining growth and stability.

## Social Reforms and Religious Modernization

Perhaps the most visible transformation has occurred in Saudi Arabia's social fabric and religious landscape.

MBS has taken bold steps to curtail the influence of the Wahhabi religious establishment and moderate religious discourse:

- **Religious Police Reform**: The authority of the religious police has been significantly limited, marking a dramatic shift from their previously unchecked power in enforcing public morality.

- **Countering Extremism**: Vision 2030 prioritizes combating extremist ideologies and partisan thinking.

This has led to regulated religious discourse that distances itself from rhetoric that promotes division, violence, or destructive political motives.

- **Cultural Opening**: The Kingdom has embraced cultural development, establishing the Entertainment Authority and opening cinemas—venues previously banned.

This cultural strength and positive intellectual openness are actively dismantling the shackles of extremism that once constrained Saudi society.

MBS has been clear in describing religious extremism as "alien to Saudi society," signaling a decisive break from rigid interpretations that had dominated for decades.

## Women's Rights Advancement

The advancement of women's rights stands as one of Vision 2030's most significant achievements.

Under MBS's leadership, Saudi Arabia has implemented historic reforms:

- **Driving Rights**: The landmark decision to allow women to drive cars ended one of the world's most infamous restrictions on women's mobility.

- **Guardianship System**: In 2016, Saudi Arabia abolished the male guardianship system that had given men authority over women's life decisions.

- **Workplace Equality**: Vision 2030 has implemented reforms evaluating employees based on performance and achievements rather than gender or nationality, promoting equal opportunity in the workplace.

- **Leadership Roles**: Women have ascended to important positions across economic, developmental, and legislative spheres, playing major roles in community development.

- **Public Participation**: Women now have access to sports stadiums and public spaces previously restricted to men only.

As Prince Sultan bin Ahmed bin Abdulaziz, Saudi ambassador to Bahrain, noted: "Saudi women are not just individuals in society; they are part of their society in all economic, developmental, and legislative aspects.

"

## Human Rights and Legal Reforms

Saudi Arabia has linked human rights with economic and social development, gaining recognition in global classifications and receiving praise from international institutions.

The Kingdom has committed to reaching the best global levels in protecting and promoting human rights within Vision 2030.

MBS has acknowledged the need for legal modernization, stating in a Fox News interview: "Do we have bad laws?

Yes.

And are we working to change them?

Yes.

" This acknowledgment led to Saudi Arabia presenting its first written civil law, the Civil Transactions System, aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors and modernizing the legal framework.

## Global Cultural Engagement

As part of Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia is investing billions to become a cultural and economic powerhouse.

The Kingdom is forging international connections through investments in arts, sports, and entertainment, building bridges with global cultural figures and institutions.

This cultural diplomacy is changing perceptions and showcasing a new, open Saudi Arabia to the world.

## Conclusion

The transformation underway in Saudi Arabia represents one of the most significant social and economic experiments of our time.

Under MBS's leadership, Vision 2030 is fundamentally reshaping the Kingdom, challenging stereotypes, and creating a more inclusive, diverse, and modern society.

While critics may highlight ongoing challenges, the pace and scope of reform in Saudi Arabia are undeniable.

From curtailing the religious police's power to advancing women's rights and diversifying the economy, these changes reflect a deliberate strategy to position Saudi Arabia as a forward-looking nation while preserving its cultural heritage and religious identity.

For American audiences, understanding this transformation is essential.

The Saudi Arabia of today is not the Saudi Arabia of a decade ago.

Vision 2030 is not merely an economic plan but a comprehensive reimagining of Saudi society—one that is gradually but decisively moving toward greater openness, equality, and global engagement.

Saudi Arabia today is a country that looks to the future to be an active member of the transformational industry in the Middle East, looking to change the historical models and stories of the past that have shaped the Middle East since the end of World War II.
The decisive political developments in Saudi Arabia revolve around the creation of a balanced political path adapted to the surrounding international transformations, based on the changes taking place in Saudi Arabia, especially in the main strategic project of Vision 2030, an ambitious vision to make Saudi Arabia an investment space at all levels. The Kingdom ’ s vision gives it to investors in all fields.
The developmental discourse of Saudi Arabia focuses on technology, investing in youth, creating a balanced social transformation, strengthening the historical link between leadership and society and overcoming hard challenges by placing Saudi society on an international path that conforms to its potential as an ambitious society willing to develop and its values towards an effective international role.
Confronting structural changes in the economic and social rules requires a lot of efforts and practical structures carried by Saudi Vision 2030, which allowed the outside world to feel strongly the magnitude of the transformation that took place in Saudi Arabia. Achieve balanced and unprecedented achievements.
The anti-corruption campaign was the biggest title and the bold step that received social acceptance in an open horizontal manner, and this step facilitated the detection of many tracks that were circumventing the regimes and enabled the leadership to send direct messages at home and abroad to confirm that this approach is heavily linked to Saudi geopolitical and economic motives that will find their way into Saudi foreign policy. This is not reflected in the Saudi geopolitical pattern, which is willing to play a pivotal role as an international middle power capable of achieving achievements.
Saudi Arabia today is a country that looks to the future to be an active member in making transformations in the Middle East region looking to change the historical models and stories of the past that have characterized the Middle East since the end of World War II, and because Saudi Arabia is the most qualified in this region, especially after the region went through all these fierce storms that affected the Middle East, most recently the Arab revolutions. Saudi generosity and swallowing what it offers without reflecting on the reality for which it was granted, whether it was money or political or cultural initiatives, in a precise sense the Saudi approach coming from this land must be built healthy and correct ways to bear fruit.
When His Excellency the Minister of Finance stated at the World Economic Forum: “We are changing the way we provide aid and development assistance, we used to provide grants and direct deposits without restrictions and we are changing that now ”, this strategic approach marked an important turning point for Saudi foreign policy. She pointed out the missing elements of the upcoming Saudi strategy, its geopolitical space, and its actual role as a state that has the ability to lead the region in an effective and participatory manner to serve the Middle East region.
Countries are evolving and many will not simply accept that Saudi Arabia leads the region with an advanced evolutionary methodology that goes beyond many of the usual values of the Middle East countries. Saudi Arabia has the acquired right to shape its geopolitical model according to its potential. An actor in the G20; the world ’ s largest economies.

Rights in Saudi Arabia: A Leading Experience of Development and Reform
(MENAFN- Al Watan) With utmost transparency and clarity, the Saudi delegation presented its report during the fourth round of the Universal Periodic Review of the United Nations Human Rights Council, which described in full detail the progress achieved during the period from November 2018 to October 2023, highlighting the many positive changes that have taken place in these five years, representing an integrated legislative breakthrough that was necessary. Fulfilling the requirements of the Kingdom's accession to many international charters and covenants.
The report presented by the Chairman of the Human Rights Commission, Dr. Hala Bint Mazyad Al-Tuwaijri, was thorough and professional, as it answered all inquiries and explained the extent of the Kingdom ’ s growing efforts to promote these rights and the many measures it has taken to consolidate them and make them part of the culture of society.
He explained the extent of the efforts made during the past period, and the determination to continue on the same path to complete the achievement of the rest of the goals.
The Kingdom attaches great importance to the issue of human rights and has linked it to economic and social development, which has gained increasing momentum as a result of the unlimited support it receives from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who paid great attention to the development, establishment and protection of these rights. It received the acclaim and appreciation of the relevant international bodies and institutions.
The report was comprehensive and contained all the necessary information that reflects the state of human rights in the Kingdom and explained that the Kingdom is determined to move forward towards achieving the best international standards in the protection and promotion of human rights within the framework of Vision 2030. The human being is given every consideration.
The report explained in an integrated manner the legislative boom experienced by the Kingdom in this prosperous era to complete the system of laws and regulations, especially those related to human rights, strengthen governance and institutional, and uphold the values of transparency, accountability and integrity.
He also stressed the Kingdom ’ s belief in the importance of the Universal Periodic Review mechanism as one of the effective tools of the Human Rights Council to improve these rights, so it has shown the utmost cooperation and seriousness in dealing with them, as evidenced by the implementation of 85% of the 450 recommendations made to it in previous sessions, which is a high achievement rate that clearly indicates the seriousness with which the Kingdom deals. With this case.
The report also noted the great cooperation shown by the Saudi authorities with the special procedures of the Human Rights Council and the effective response to the inquiries of mandate holders with a response rate of 99%, as well as participating fully in the consultations of mandate holders for the preparation and submission of their reports to the Human Rights Council and the General Assembly of the United Nations with a rate of 98%.
This great cooperation proves the clear fact that Saudi Arabia views human rights as a fundamental issue and deals with it very seriously, in response to the desire of its society and its needs and not subject to dictates or external pressures.
What distinguishes these endeavors is that they are not limited to government efforts, but that civil society organizations have become partners in promoting these values to entrench them within the culture of society, where efforts are integrated to promote them.
These organizations play leading roles that complement, support and emphasize government efforts, and they have proven their worth and competence to play their intended roles.
In the same context, this unique approach to fulfilling the voluntary pledges made by the Kingdom in relation to the international track coincides with the huge legislative boom currently taking place in our country. While the competent institutions with the recommendations of the international mechanisms show an unprecedented response to these recommendations and achieve a high rate of achievement, which is reflected in the fact that Saudi Arabia is the first country in the Middle East and North Africa uses the database to track the implementation of these recommendations, and the process of amending the rest of the laws continues in an integrated vision that takes into account the scale and actual needs.
It was remarkable during the submission of the Kingdom ’ s report that it affirmed its belief in the principle of the universality and indivisibility of human rights and the importance of giving them the same attention, because they are one system. The world in which we live has become a small village with no room for differentiation. It is essential that the same human being find the same rights in the rest of the world, without discrimination or double standards.
Based on my previous participation in such events, I register my appreciation for the recent report submitted by the Saudi delegation because it was integrated, and will have many positive effects in the coming period, in addition to that the clear dealing mechanism adopted by the Commission, which is based on hard evidence, hard evidence and official figures will contribute to confirming the truth. The time and the times.
Therefore, I can say with the utmost confidence that the Kingdom is steadily on its way to strengthening its international position in the field of human rights, and it reaps every year renewed gains, using the unlimited support provided by the wise leadership, and the clear strategies brought by the vision of the Kingdom 2030, which called for the promotion and improvement of human rights as an integral part of the heritage of this country. its people and their ancient traditions.

Content: The Saudi economy.
Empowerment and sustainability
|
In order to develop and diversify the economy, renew its effective tools and reduce dependence on oil, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia launched "Vision 2030" based on several economic and financial reforms, which aimed to transform the structure of the Saudi economy into a diversified and sustainable economy based on enhancing productivity, raising the contribution of the private sector, and empowering the third sector.
During its modern era, the Saudi economy has witnessed a diversified growth in many sectors, taking advantage of the Kingdom ’ s natural resources and its distinctive geographical and cultural location.
This growth has built a solid economic base, becoming one of the top 20 global economies and an active member of the G20, and one of the key players in the global economy and oil markets, supported by a strong financial system, an efficient and stable banking sector, and giant government companies based on qualified national cadres.
Over the past years, the Kingdom has also witnessed structural reforms on the economic and financial side, which promotes raising economic growth rates while maintaining financial stability and sustainability.
This is evident in the improvement of the business environment in the country, the continuous endeavor to enable the private sector to support economic diversification by improving the business environment and overcoming obstacles to make it more attractive, in addition to investing in previously untapped sectors, as well as improving the investment environment and increasing its attractiveness to local and foreign investors.
In this context, the Cabinet renewed its determination to continue implementing economic initiatives and reforms to achieve the objectives of Vision 2030. The financial indicators for the first quarter of this year came in accordance with all plans set before, and confirms the strength of the public finances and its ability to implement its obligations on time. In the first quarter of this year, which exceeds the forecast of average revenues estimated in each quarter by 261.25 billion riyals, "General revenues were estimated at 1045 billion riyals," which means that revenues have increased by 6.41% from the estimate, compared to that 220.5 billion riyals were spent in the first quarter of this year, while the estimated for each quarter at an average of 238.75 billion riyals. During the first quarter of the estimated average of 7.64 percent, all of which resulted in a surplus in public finances of 57.5 billion riyals during the first quarter of this year, and the budget of 2022 was estimated to have a surplus for the fiscal year as a whole of 90 billion riyals.
There is no doubt that the figures speak for themselves, these indicators that indicate the strength of public finances were not only the result of the rise in oil prices, but also the interaction of the data of the new Saudi economic equation diversified, oil is an important factor but not absolutely, and the performance of public finances on non-oil revenues has improved strongly and continuously during the recent indicators. The vision, with all the details of its programs and initiatives, is the most appropriate model for the Saudi reality so far.
Since the launch of the vision, the Kingdom has succeeded in implementing several supporting initiatives and structural reforms to enable economic transformation. This transformation included several major efforts focused on a sectoral dimension, including enhancing local content and national industry, launching and developing promising economic sectors, and an enabling dimension aimed at maximizing the role of the private sector and SMEs, and enhancing the sustainability of public finances.
These structural shifts have contributed to the Kingdom ’ s economy ’ s ability to steadily weather the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
The pace of this structural transformation towards sustainable economic growth is expected to continue in the coming years, especially in light of a number of investment and giant initiatives, under the umbrella of the Public Investment Fund and leading companies.
It is also expected that the pace of localization of knowledge and innovative technologies will accelerate.
Since the collapse of oil prices in 2015, the Kingdom did not stand idly by in front of the reality of the oil market, but contributed under the guidance of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and great efforts and supervision and follow-up of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in re-engineering the market and its governance to get back on its feet quickly and overcome the crisis. The market is even on the most difficult days, such as during the health crisis and the war crisis in Ukraine.
In contrast, Saudi Arabia has worked on an economic reform model from within that focuses on issues that play an important role in long-term growth, such as human capital development, knowledge economy, research and development, and innovation, while recognizing the importance of saving and capital accumulation. I came out of the pandemic with record growth.
It should be noted here that the preliminary statement of the Ministry of Finance on the 2022 budget said that the non-oil sector has grown by 8.4%, and is the best since the second quarter of 2011 (i.e.: within ten years) - the private sector grew 11.1%, and the government sector 2.3% during the second quarter of 2021 on an annual basis.
Non-oil revenues also managed to achieve significant growth, reaching in 2020 about 369 billion riyals, while they did not exceed 127 billion in 2014.
This march of economic reforms came with full commitment to achieve the vision plans, the most important of which is the program of the Public Investment Fund, which jumped from 570 billion in 2015 to more than 1.8 trillion by the end of 2021, and gross contribution to GDP 8%, with the development of human capital with more than 365 thousand jobs. The Council of Ministers, headed by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman and in the presence of the Crown Prince and continuing to implement economic initiatives and reforms, has a clear message to move forward in the hard work that has put its daughters in the first phase of the vision of a sustainable Saudi renaissance.

Content: Johnny Depp's bizarre bromance with MBS: Pair have a 'genuine connection' and Pirates of the Caribbean star has 'become a believer that Saudi Arabia is in the midst of a cultural revolution'

  • The Pirates of the Caribbean star has struck up a friendship with Saudi Arabia 's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after the kingdom's ruling family invested millions in his latest film project
  • MBS has spent billions under his Vision 2030 plan to make Saudi Arabia a cultural and economic powerhouse
  • Depp insists that Saudi Arabia, a country plagued by accusations of human rights abuses, is experiencing a 'cultural revolution'

Johnny Depp has struck up a bizarre friendship with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after the kingdom's ruling family invested millions into the actor's latest film.

MBS has spent billions under his Vision 2030 plan to make Saudi Arabia, plagued by accusations of human rights abuses, a cultural and economic powerhouse by investing in the arts, sports and forging personal connections with stars.

Depp, 60, first met MBS, 38, after filming Jeanne du Barry, which Saudi Arabia had invested millions, in the summer of 2022.

'They made a genuine connection. It's a shock to many of the people who know [Depp], but it's what happened' a friend of Depp's told Vanity Fair

Both men have faced a reckoning in the public perceptions of their carefully crafted images in recent years.

Depp was found to have domestically abused his ex-wife Amber Heard when he lost a libel case in the UK in 2020.

Two years later a series of further disturbing details, including accusations of sexual abuse, were made public after he successfully sued Heard for libel two years later.

MBS, once a favorite among Western leaders who considered him a great reformer, irrevocably harmed his image by sanctioning the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018.

Depp insists that Saudi Arabi is experiencing a 'cultural revolution.'

'Though I admit I was somewhat naïve at first to what was transpiring in the region, I've since experienced firsthand the cultural revolution that is happening there' Depp told Vanity Fair.

The country has 'emerging young storytellers radiating fresh ideas and works of art to a blossoming film infrastructure and a newfound curiosity for innovation' her explained.

Adding: 'I've had the opportunity to meet people from various parts of the region who have been most welcoming in sharing with me their culture, their traditions, and their stories.'

Indeed, MBS has spent hundreds of billions on sports, tourism, the arts and other ventures such as real estate to move the country away from its dependence on oil money and become a diversified economic powerhouse.

MBS' Vision 2030 plan has made the entertainment industry, including film production, as key focus as it increases tourism and cultural perception of the kingdom but also encourages the country's 30 million residents to do their leisure spending domestically.

The Kingdom's Public Investment Fund (PIF) has invested millions in establishing the LIV Golf tournament, attracting players such as Dustin Johnson and Sergio Garcia.

The PIF also provided the bulk of the funds for a Saudi takeover of Newcastle United football club in 2021, a controversial deal that became a hot button issue for the UK government.

'We're making up for lost time and making sure that our country realizes its potential,' a Saudi government adviser told Vanity Fair.

Depp previously associated with another Saudi prince, Abdulaziz bin Fahd, but a member of his entourage was convicted of raping a woman in 2012 at the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan, where the prince had rented out a block of rooms.

Prince Abdulaziz stopped appearing in public in 2017, having been detained by MBS along with 300 of Saudi Arabia’s richest men on suspicion of corruption.

The prince  eventually reemerged, smiling for a photo with MBS, but he has kept a very low profile ever since.

The sudden disappearance reportedly made Depp wary of an initial meeting with any further Saudi royals.

However, he was talked around and met with Prince Badr, the kingdom's culture minister in July 2022.

A few months later he flew to Jeddah for the 2022 Red Sea Film Festival and during the trip was introduced to the Crown Prince.

Depp visited again in early 2023 and was invited to MBS’s royal camp in the mountains.

The actor also flew on multiple occasions by helicopter to MBS’s yacht, one of the largest in the world.

The two men are now close friends, according to Vanity Fair, and friends of Depp told the publication he values the friendship and doesn’t want anything in return.

However, Depp's team are in talks with the Saudi government are in talks over a seven figure deal for him to attend events and shoot films in the country, the outlet reported.

Content: Riyadh
What is happening in Saudi Arabia?
The modern Saudi methodology was based on taking advantage of all resources, diversifying sources of income, building strong and innovative arms, in addition to maximizing the impact of returns on all possible resources.
I will begin my article by borrowing this sentence, from a Western media source who very much prefaces what I would like to say: “As the world sinks into crisis, Saudi Arabia is recommended as a modern superpower. ”
At a time when some were betting on the imminent fall of the Kingdom and the end of its project as an important power in the region, Saudi Arabia was busy renewing itself through a solid reconstruction in all fields, this time away from oil as the only source of income by rediscovering its sources of potential power in terms of religious prestige, mineral wealth, human power and geographical space.
What happened in a few years was amazing, and it backfired on the dreams of the skeptics.
Until recently, talking about Saudi Vision 2030 seemed like a fantasy, at least to skeptics.
The actions came out loud, and the proofs accelerated, project after project, and success after success.
Until 2015, Riyadh was a political and economic power only with a strong religious heritage to embrace and care for the two holy mosques and honor them by serving them and caring for their visitors and pilgrims, but it was not interested in the rest of its other aspects, which lost it expansion in new sectors.
The modern Saudi methodology was based on taking advantage of all resources, diversifying sources of income, building strong and innovative arms, in addition to maximizing the impact of returns on all possible resources.
Previously, the talk was about the “American Dream, ” and later, it was about the Singaporean and Korean experiences.
And in every field you find a leading country referred to as a forerunner...
What we have reached is the repeated reference to the Kingdom as a modern developmental state, applying different standards in the region, and leading the world in a number of areas.
The West bet – and still does – on democracy alone to achieve anything, and discovered that monarchies have their own recipe.
Despite all that is achieved, it represents only the first seed of the large Saudi tree.
Major projects that are not duplicated anywhere in the world, building economic cities, bringing in investments, supporting innovation and innovators, pioneering new fields, and many more.
All in the process of verification.
The Saudi flare was quick to happen.
What needs decades of work has been achieved in years, and this equation needed a serious official will and desire, sound modern planning, exceptional data, empowered human resources, and a great societal acceptance to move towards transformation and change.
All this was available, waiting for someone to hang the bell, and something unexpectedly happened.
What the Saudis dream of, what others do not wish for, and others work against it, and I am satisfied with this description.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman came with his civilized development project, to find the great support waiting, and everyone - without exception - engaged in the ambitious vision project.
Everyone has found something similar in change, according to specialization, interest, desires and needs.
I do not deny, nor do any sane person, that there are challenges facing the mega project; however, the advantage is that they are dealt with quickly and flexibly.
It is not uncommon to hear about the cancellation, development or integration of projects, initiatives or programs, and the response to the accompanying circumstances, which reflects positively on the basic objectives of construction.
Perhaps the most important step, as a ground for achieving everything, is to declare war on extremism.
Saudi Arabia has led an early domestic and international project to fight extremism.
It supported official organizations, established alliances and centers, and aborted the project of extremists, to sow its place of development.
In my opinion, if the same project aimed at fighting extremism was carried out in another country, under the same conditions, we would find what can be described as disasters.
As a reactionary and natural result of a comprehensive change of collective thought, this did not happen in Saudi Arabia.
It was the result of the project "We will destroy them now...
And immediately, very tight, as the best possible result with the least damage expected, but where are the fair ones?
Despite all that is achieved, it represents only the first seed of the large Saudi tree.
Major projects that are not duplicated anywhere in the world, building economic cities, bringing in investments, supporting innovation and innovators, pioneering new fields, and many more.
All of them are in the process of being investigated, and others are expected to be investigated.
The long stagnation weighed down the desire to respond in the beginning, but successive achievements awakened the genie.
We are promised an unprecedented development renaissance, whose impact extends beyond geographical borders, to include all countries that take the initiative of shaking hands and partnering with us to engage in a development project that the region has been eagerly waiting for after many decades of suffering under the weight of the equations of conflicts and crises.

What the first could not | Mohammed bin Salman.. Saudi Arabia ’ s answer to a question that no one asked
While the Middle East was looking to Western governments where young people assume leadership positions and their energies explode in order to elevate their homelands, no one expected to see a similar experience in our Arab countries soon, before circumstances gave us a chance to see the experience of Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Wednesday turned 37, the youngest crown prince in Saudi Arabia ’ s history.
On April 29, 2015, the royal order was issued to choose Prince Mohammed bin Salman as crown prince, amid a state of regional and international surprise at the unprecedented and “previous ” step, and amid anticipation of what this young man might do, the question was:“ Is he qualified to carry out the duties of this heavy position in such a great country? ”
The obvious truth is that Prince Mohammed bin Salman did more than this question and answer it, but it was an answer to a question that did not occur to him, a question about the revolution to change the face of the Kingdom and lead it towards the future.
How did the young prince change the face of the kingdom?
Prince Mohammed bin Salman has shown since his tenure the Kingdom ’ s era an open mentality that flushed the dust of reactionary and extremist thought about the Kingdom, a task that was not imagined that anyone would dare, the challenge of the common mistake is the task of misery, where he will not forgive you your sanity and will not protect you from doubt and denigrating, but the steadfast leader does not turn and go his way for the sake of his people.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman made history when his reign saw Saudi women allowed to drive and enter sports stadiums and then established the Entertainment Authority.
His views have always been clear in categorical terms, when he described “religious extremism ” as an outsider in Saudi society, and that there is no place to waste women ’ s rights according to misconceptions about Islam, as the kingdom under King Salman bin Abdulaziz abolished the guardianship system for women in 2016.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman told The Atlantic: “Before 1979 there were more flexible social customs, and there were no guardianship laws in Saudi Arabia. ”
He refers to a series of disparate pieces of legislation that have not taken the status of law since the late 1970s that have limited the rights of Saudi women as minors in need of a guardian.
Bin Salman was aware of a real understanding of the change he is leading, aware of the challenge and aware of the essence of Islam, where he described those who oppose the project of “Islamic awakening ” and the mixing of the sexes in work as“ extremism, ” saying: “These extremists are contrary to what the Prophet and the adult caliphs were like, ” and hinted at the imminence of allowing Saudi women not to wear the“ black cloak. ” It is a legal text that requires the abaya to be black or the veil to be black. ”
The decision to grant licenses to open cinemas in Saudi Arabia came after 40 years of prohibition, in addition to the decision to establish the General Entertainment Authority in Saudi Arabia.
Also, in the context of openness, in February 2020, several cultural bodies were established to take care of the Saudi cultural heritage, working to preserve and disseminate it at the national, regional and global levels after it was absent in light of the extremism prevailing in the Kingdom, and on the other hand to establish cultural sectors to contribute to economic diversification, including: the Heritage Authority, the Museums Authority, the Film Authority, the Music Authority and the Library Authority.
All this points to a young man who has a real intellectual approach and a strategy that clearly sees the future, knows how to go to it with the legacy of his country and its history.
A New Economy for Saudi Arabia
The most prominent project of the young crown prince is the "Saudi Vision 2030" plan, which aims to make the Saudi economy based on investment, in addition to not relying on oil as a basic and sole income, as he promised to end the relationship of dependence of the Saudi state on oil, which he described as "addiction".
The vision coincides with the date set for the announcement of the completion of the delivery of eighty giant government projects, which cost the least one of them the equivalent of four billion riyals.
Through this plan, and related programs, Mohammed bin Salman aims to increase Saudi non-oil revenues sixfold from about $43.5 billion annually to $267 billion annually.
In addition, the share of Saudi non-oil exports increased from 16% of Saudi GDP (in 2016) to 50% of Saudi GDP (in 2030).
As well as the giant NEOM project, the land of opportunities and dreams, announced by Prince Mohammed bin Salman in October 2017, which aspires to serve as a global commercial and economic capital that represents the spirit of the age associated with artificial intelligence.
NEOM is located in northwestern Saudi Arabia on an area of twenty-six thousand five hundred square kilometers in partnership with Egypt and Jordan.
Everything mentioned is just a tip of the iceberg, they are just examples to cite that the young prince has something beyond the youth and his enthusiasm, but he also has the vision and the necessary qualities and requirements to lead the change.

One of the first priorities of the Kingdom ’ s Vision 2030 since its inception is its keenness to address and fight extremist ideas and partisan and movement ideologies, and this has led to the control of the Da ’ wah discourse and away from what provokes sedition and division or incites violence or promotes incoming ideas with subversive political aims.
The decisive moment in history was when Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman announced the elimination of extremism, the Awakening project and the rhetoric of international policy advocates saying: “In one year we managed to eliminate an ideological project made over 40 years! ” and when he said“ we will return the kingdom to moderate Islam ” The Guardian picked up the most important global political message in the speech of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
The researcher and observer of the movements and groups of political Islam in general and the Muslim Brotherhood in particular is aware of the great role played by the Kingdom ’ s Vision 2030 and how it was able, through achieving the intellectual dimension of its achievements, projects and programs, to overcome the intellectual danger of extremism and terrorist ideologies that existed in a previous era and to eliminate the project of awakening.
Our society has suffered in a period of time many and many of the scourge of terrorism because of the power of the Awakening and the penetration of the terrorist Brotherhood in the joints of many institutions and its tools and symbols of the advocates of politics and revealed the truth of the events of the Arab Spring.
Therefore, it was one of the first priorities of the Kingdom ’ s Vision 2030 since its inception is its keenness to address and fight extremist ideas and partisan and dynamic ideologies, and this has led to control the Da ’ wah discourse and distance from what provokes sedition and division or incites violence or promotes foreign ideas with subversive political aims. How the Saudis are becoming more proud of their homeland
The cultural power, tolerant immunity and positive intellectual openness to the world are destroying the shackles of extremism in society. This combination of anti-extremism and extremist ideas is the backbone of the development process in any society. Development is a mobile process, and its wheel drives strategies, money and action. They are called “enemies of development ”.
They were shaking the society by deluding it with ideas through which they seek to stop the wheel of development and stand in its way, different attempts, once we see them using religious justifications for the purpose of striking a project or shaking its idea, and other times by militarizing society under the banner of corruption and loss of public money and waste of wealth, they talk about things they do not understand and do not know the details, some of these people think that Plan the future of the country.
They linked their vocabulary and accusations to Islam, and this is the habit of the activists, that they make all their passions and political purposes from the order of Islam and its provisions, and development is not an outsider, unless they want to return the societies that are moving towards development to a lifestyle that resembles the primitive caves of the Taliban and others.
The development and diversification of the economy, the development of the judiciary, the development of education, the development of health, the construction of dream cities, unprecedented tourism projects, and everything that achieves quality of life and entertainment and the development of all areas of life and management are not alienation but the movement of normal life that should be.
Simon Henderson, a foreign affairs expert at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, praised the Crown Prince ’ s remarks in the NEOM interview, saying: “The statements of the Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman, about restoring Islam in his country to moderation as in the past, is an unusual statement, saying:“ What Prince Mohammed bin Salman said is unusual. Sort of "!
The Washington Post described in a report in 2017 that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is "re-engineering the Kingdom," and although social engineering is a very difficult work, not easy, and failed by several countries, but it is different in Saudi Arabia!
The decisions that some may see as easy or normal to make in other societies are not so in societies where the cost of intellectual change is high, and require courageous leadership capable of leapfrogging this society in the horizons of development so that there is no limit to ambition and at the same time in a safe manner!
Every courageous decision was left behind by a courageous leader; he was able to jump in his community and contribute to changing the thinking of that community, and his freedom from the societal reasons that prevent him from not facing the idea of   hindering him from making progress or keeping pace with global development.
Saudi society has proved to the whole world that it is the growth of change led by the godfather of change and the godfather of vision. Saudi society is very supportive of the new reforms and the way the Crown Prince works. All this is evidenced by the society ’ s “optimistic ” reaction and the absolute confidence of the Saudis, which enabled them, according to the report published by Edelman Barometer 2021. Proud and serious about building their own country when talking to Saudi citizens about Vision 2030, they say,“ We ’ re going to amaze the world! ”
This astonishment, in fact, was not the exclusive preserve of the Saudis.
CNN ’ s Richard Quest recently visited Saudi Arabia and wrote, “I ’ ve seen countries change before, but I don ’ t think I ’ ve seen anything like the change happening in Saudi Arabia. ”
Today, as we race against time with the vision of the Kingdom 2030, it is ironic that the terrorist Brotherhood has been for decades saying wait for the year 2023 and here comes the year 2023, but what happened and got that was the elimination of the dream of a terrorist project worked on by this terrorist organization and its tools for decades and eliminated in one year!
If 1979 was the birth of the Awakening Project, history will record that 2017 saw the announcement of the Awakening Judiciary and the Brotherhood Project in the region by a great leader when he said: 70% of the Saudi people are under the age of 30, and frankly we will not waste 30 years of our lives dealing with any extremist ideas. We live with the world and contribute to the development of our country and the world. ”

Content: Human rights in the UK.
How did the vision contribute to the status of Saudi Arabia at an advanced level?
It was based on its principles, its deep-rooted values and the will of its leadership that advances man on every consideration.
Riyadh
The Kingdom has been able to achieve great strides in the advancement of human rights, moving from the stage of slogans to legislation and practices, based on a national vision that considers human rights as an integral part of its values and authentic culture.
Based on the position of the human being above all consideration, the Kingdom ’ s Vision 2030 has harnessed its programs and objectives to ensure equal opportunities and reduce inequality on the basis of sex, disability, age or any other form of discrimination, in order to benefit from the possibilities of all citizens and residents of the Kingdom without discrimination.
These steps have been in line with current developments, and the Kingdom has worked to understand the effects of artificial intelligence on human rights, with the aim of promoting a future in which technological progress is in harmony with fundamental rights and values.
The Kingdom is embarking on this ambitious path, seeking to reach the best international standards in the protection and promotion of human rights, based on its established principles and values, and the will of its leadership that advances human beings on every consideration, according to the head of the Saudi Human Rights Commission, Dr. Hala Al-Tuwaijri.
Al-Tuwaijri said: The Kingdom adopts the principles of equality, dialogue, cooperation, neutrality, objectivity and transparency, which the Kingdom seeks to be a basic pillar and a common ground for any interaction and joint action between countries in the field of human rights.
The President of the Human Rights Commission delivered the speech of Saudi Arabia at the Human Rights Council in Geneva, discussing the most prominent reforms and developments achieved in her country in the field of human rights and related to the topics of recommendations submitted to it.
She added that more than 150 legislative, institutional, judicial and procedural reforms and developments have been achieved since the adoption of Vision 2030, and these reforms have not stopped even during the circumstances that hit the world, represented by the Coronavirus (COVID-19).
The Kingdom's efforts have shifted from commitments to best practices in the field of human rights, through its own experiences, stemming from its established values, the will of its leadership, and the awareness of its society, in addition to sharing experiences with others.
In light of the Kingdom's belief in the principle of integral equality between men and women and that the integration of the relationship between men and women is an ideal way to promote and protect human rights, including women's rights and eliminate discrimination against them, its regulations derived from Islamic law have adopted the principle of ensuring equal opportunities and reducing inequalities by eliminating discriminatory practices and promoting appropriate legislation, policies and procedures in this regard.
The Kingdom's regulations do not contain any distinction, exclusion or restriction that results in the weakening or thwarting of women's recognition of human rights and fundamental freedoms in all fields.
Equality between men and women in the areas of human rights is absolute, such as the right to work, education, health, economic rights, and others.
In an effort to strengthen this trend, the Kingdom has issued and amended several laws, policies and regulations that support equal opportunities and reduce inequality; among them, several reforms that empower women, which exceeded 50 reforms, and allow them to participate fully and effectively in various fields, including the establishment of the Center for Gender Balance.
The Kingdom has promulgated the Law on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which aims to protect and promote their rights and ensure their equal access to all services.
It promulgated a system of rights and care for older persons, which seeks to enable them to live in an environment that preserves their rights and dignity, organizes and implements appropriate programmes for them, and rehabilitates facilities to suit their needs.
In addition to those groups, the Kingdom had worked to protect children and promote their rights on the basis of equal opportunities.
These laws have not been unchecked, as this task has been assigned to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, which follows up the implementation of the policy and prepares a framework for follow-up and monitoring, and has established effective remedies for discriminatory practices in order to receive complaints of all forms of discrimination in employment and occupation.
Aware of the consequences of "trafficking in persons", which is the use, attachment, transfer, harbouring or reception of a person for the purpose of abuse, the Kingdom has paid great attention to this issue and has worked to develop its legal and institutional structure.
It has also strengthened the prosecution aspect through the establishment of specialized prosecution offices in all branches of the Public Prosecution to investigate these cases, and judicial chambers in the courts of first instance and the courts of appeal to hear cases of trafficking in persons.
To promote this policy, the Kingdom has formed a committee to combat trafficking in persons within the Human Rights Commission, comprising the Ministries of the Interior, Foreign Affairs, Justice, Human Resources and Social Development, Information, Public Prosecution, Education, Health and Human Rights.
Its functions include coordinating with the competent authorities for the return of the victim to his or her country of origin in the State to which he or she is a national, or to his or her place of residence in any other State if he or she so requests, and recommending that the victim remain in the Kingdom and regularize his or her status so as to enable him or her to work if necessary.
In addition to the legal system, the Kingdom has acceded to a number of international conventions and protocols, signed several memorandums of cooperation with relevant international organizations and bodies, in addition to local cooperation between the Human Rights Commission, government agencies and civil society organizations to strengthen efforts to prevent and combat trafficking in persons and take national measures to counter such crimes.
These regional conventions and instruments include the Arab Protocol to Prevent and Combat Human Trafficking, the Arab Charter on Human Rights, the Arab Convention on Combating Transnational Organized Crime 2010, and the Arab Comprehensive Strategy to Combat Human Trafficking Crimes.
Reference is also made to the international conventions and instruments to which the Kingdom has acceded, including the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime of 2000, the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, and the United Nations Global Plan of Action to Combat Trafficking in Persons 2010.
For her part, the Executive Director of the OIC Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission (IPHRC), Noura Bint Zeid Mubarak Al-Rashoud, said that Saudi Arabia has shown a firm commitment to promoting human rights globally both within the OIC and at the United Nations, citing Riyadh ’ s hosting of the Secretariat of the OIC Human Rights Commission in Jeddah, which demonstrates the Kingdom ’ s leadership and support for the OIC mission.
As Chairman of the 14th Summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Saudi Arabia has strengthened its commitment to promoting human rights in the Islamic world, strengthened international cooperation in this regard, and addressed pressing humanitarian issues.

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has affirmed its strong commitment to combating racism and discrimination in the workplace, promoting equality and diversity, and is doing so through its adherence to Islamic law, which confirms the rejection of such practices as ignorance, and through the Saudi Vision 2030.
As revealed by the Permanent Delegation of Saudi Arabia to the United Nations in New York via the platform « X », this came during the speech of Saudi Arabia during the general debate of the work of the Fifth Committee at the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly, item (136) « Combating racism and promoting dignity for all ».
He added that the fight against racial discrimination is a fundamental pillar in promoting social, economic and cultural progress around the world, and that diversity is a source of strength and creativity to achieve development in work and sustainable development, especially for an ancient organization such as the United Nations, which includes many different races and nationalities.
Through Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia has been able to implement a range of initiatives and reforms that have enabled it to evaluate employees on their performance and achievements rather than on their gender, nationality or other racial criteria.
Saudi Arabia also encourages the United Nations and Member States to implement all that helps to reject racism and discrimination in the workplace.

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”

She pointed out the missing elements of the upcoming Saudi strategy, its geopolitical space, and its actual role as a state that has the ability to lead the region in an effective and participatory manner to serve the Middle East region.
Countries are evolving and many will not simply accept that Saudi Arabia leads the region with an advanced evolutionary methodology that goes beyond many of the usual values of the Middle East countries. Saudi Arabia has the acquired right to shape its geopolitical model according to its potential. An actor in the G20; the world ’ s largest economies.

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”

She pointed out the missing elements of the upcoming Saudi strategy, its geopolitical space, and its actual role as a state that has the ability to lead the region in an effective and participatory manner to serve the Middle East region.
Countries are evolving and many will not simply accept that Saudi Arabia leads the region with an advanced evolutionary methodology that goes beyond many of the usual values of the Middle East countries. Saudi Arabia has the acquired right to shape its geopolitical model according to its potential. An actor in the G20; the world ’ s largest economies.

An economic boom envisioned by the Financial Times
Strong action led by the Crown Prince to expand the private sector and provide jobs and homes
The Financial Times published a lengthy report on the economic and social changes and economic growth experienced by the Kingdom in recent years, at a time when many countries complain of high unemployment, inflation and economic decline.
The kingdom is undergoing a period of rapid reforms under the strong work of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as Riyadh works to expand the private sector and provide jobs and homes for Saudis.
Unemployment fell to 10.1 percent this year, the lowest level since 2008, and more than 400,000 citizens entered the labor market last year as the government pushes more citizens to join the private sector.
Economic development, job creation and stimulating investment across the country are among the key issues for the crown prince.
The International Monetary Fund praised the reforms and the recovery of the GDP of the Kingdom to 3.2% in 2021 despite the Corona pandemic, and thanks to the boom experienced by Saudi Arabia is expected to reach 7.6% this year, and inflation this year is among the lowest rates in the G20 countries, where the consumer price index rose to about 3% last month.
There are also many new buildings rising in the kingdom and more Saudis are buying homes with government-backed mortgages, which has led to an increase in home ownership rates among Saudi Arabia from 47 percent in 2016 to more than 60 percent this year, and there is a high demand for Saudis with the required qualifications and experience.
According to the newspaper, one citizen who drives an Uber to raise income to open his own business said: “There are a lot of jobs, but all we need is the desire to work. ”
According to the report, Saudi officials say they are aware that some cities need more work and are planning development projects, vocational training and supporting families to set up their own businesses, while another official said hundreds of billions of riyals have been invested or allocated by the government and the private sector to the regions.

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”

Amnesty International Criticizes Saudi Sanctions Bill, Calls for Change
Amnesty International on Tuesday criticized a leaked version of Saudi Arabia ’ s first draft sanctions law, saying it would codify practices ranging from flogging to gender discrimination, and called for changes to bring it in line with international standards.
The draft law “dispels the illusion ” that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is seeking“ to implement a real reform agenda, ” the organization said in a report, referring to the social and economic changes he has introduced to develop the kingdom, attract investment and stimulate tourism.
The draft law was first leaked in 2022 and was confirmed by Saudi legal experts.
She added that the Saudi Human Rights Commission denied the validity of the bill, after the organization sent two letters to it and the Saudi government to inform them of its analysis.
The regulator was informed that the bill was currently under legislative review.
Neither the kingdom ’ s government media liaison office nor Saudi Arabia ’ s human rights body have so far responded to questions from Reuters about the report.
The leaked bill, a copy of which was shared with Reuters, has no date and is 116 pages long.
The kingdom ’ s legal system has for years been based on judges ’ interpretation of provisions of Islamic law and has not been written into a written law, making rulings dependent on the discretion of the judiciary.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed announced in 2021 plans for judicial reform that would eventually lead to a fully codified law.
Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard said: “The Saudi authorities have a critical opportunity to transform their abusive criminal justice system into one that respects human rights with the first written penal code.
“However, our analysis of the leaked draft law reveals that it is a statement of repression that would entrench human rights violations and suppress freedoms. ”
The kingdom has seen changes in recent years, including reforms that have restricted the power of its religious police, allowed cinemas and allowed women to drive.
Riyadh has come under international criticism for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018, the imprisonment of women activists who campaigned for women ’ s right to drive, and the issuance of death sentences or prison sentences for decades for posts on social media.
Crown Prince Mohammed indicated in an interview with Fox News in September that he wanted legal reforms.
"Do we have bad laws?" he said in the interview.
Are we changing it?
"Yes."
In December, Saudi Arabia introduced its first written civil code, a civil transaction system aimed at creating a more stable environment for investors.
Amnesty International said the bill criminalizes the right to freedom of expression, thought and religion, along with criminalizing consensual “illegal ” sexual relations, homosexuality and abortion, and does not protect women and girls from gender-based violence.
The leaked bill also codifies the use of the death penalty and continues to allow for corporal punishments such as flogging.
With the bill currently under legislative review, authorities still have a chance to prove to the world that their “reform pledges are more than empty promises. ”
