Corporate Strategy Plan Project In light of the evolving global and regional economic environment, and to continue being the spearhead of the Kingdom’s economic development, the Royal Commission for Jubail and Yanbu has decided to review its vision, mission and strategy as well as the Business Plan for the coming 25 years. As such, the Royal Commission has put in place a dedicated team to lead this effort, supported by an international consulting firm (Booz Allen Hamilton). In the coming weeks, the team will be conducting interviews within the organization’s footprint in Riyadh, Jubail and Yanbu and will also hear the views and opinions of Stakeholders, key thought leaders, private sector players, government officials, as well as current and prospective customers. This effort was launched in November by the Chairman of the Royal Commission H. H. Prince Saud Ben Abdullah Ben Thunayyan Al Saud and will continue over the next 4 -5 months.

Riyadh and Jubail among the world's top three leadership cities u SAUDIA ARABIA. Two Saudi Arabian cities, Riyadh, the capital and Jubail Industrial City have been short listed as two of the world’s top three leadership cities : Riyadh in the category of Health and Jubail in the category of Economy and Employment. Applications on behalf of both cities were submitted by the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority )SAGIA(, as part of its ongoing efforts to promote the competitive advantages Saudi Arabia enjoys.

Cont… u Jubail’s selection in the Economy and Employment Category was unsurprising considering the great strides made by the tiny village within three decades. From humble beginnings lacking schools, roads or any form of modern infrastructure to the world’s largest petrochemical center, seeking to grow into the role of diversified global energy hub, Jubail’s is an inspiring story of perseverance and strategic development. In addition to economic advancements, Jubail has also developed an unskilled, native population with a negligible literacy rate into a skilled work force to meet the needs of future employers. u Paying tribute to the leadership of the Royal Commission of Jubail, the submission by SAGIA elaborated the milestones of development consisting of city planning, infrastructure development, regulatory environment establishment, human resource development, education and health care facilities and construction.

An Invitation from the Director General of The Royal Commission, Jubail u u u On behalf of the Royal Commission for Jubail & Yanbu, you are cordially invited to attend Saudi Arabia: Major Investment Opportunities in the 21 st Century. The conference is being held under the patronage of H. R. H. Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince, Deputy Premier and Head of the National Guard, and will be organized jointly by the Royal Commission and the World Development Federation. The conference will address key economic issues in light of the Kingdom’s new investment laws that promote investments by private and foreign investors. It will, I believe, provide a superb forum for Saudi and foreign businessmen and investors to meet and explore various investment opportunities in the Kingdom. Jubail Industrial City is a world-class industrial city, created on the desert shores of the Gulf just 25 years ago. Together with its twin, Yanbu Industrial City, which is situated some 350 km. north of Jeddah on the Red Sea, it is a testament to the vision of Saudi Arabia’s leadership and the rapid growth the Kingdom has experienced over recent decades. With its skilled and enthusiastic workforce, modern infrastructure, abundant natural resources and strategic location between East and West, Saudi Arabia is the place to invest and do business in the 21 st century. Come and see for yourself the Kingdom’s remarkable achievements. We look forward to meeting you in Jubail Industrial City. H. E. Dr. Jasem Muhammad Al-Ansari

Environmental u The Royal Commission for Jubail and Yanbu made a conscious decision to balance industrial development with environmental protection. Based on the results of the studies that took place before the inception of the city, an environmental program was developed. The basis of environmental protection in Jubail is the Environmental Monitoring and Control Program which Royal Commission launched much before the establishment of the city. If pollution is not controlled, it will not be possible to develop industry without damaging the environment or the health of the population. Implementation of advanced technologies and use of the best techniques to control pollution made industrialization, protection of the environment and building a healthy city possible. This could not have been achieved without the blessings of Allah, and then the continuous support from the government of the Custodian of the two Holy Mosques and the top management of the Royal Commission.

Cont…. . u As the result of the Royal Commission efforts in the protection of the environment, three awards were received : the Sasakawa Award from the United Nations, the Award from the Regional Organization for the Protection of the Marine Environment and from the Arab Cities Organization. To ensure a sustainable balance between industry and environment and to protect the health of residents, the Royal Commission made the protection of environment one of its major priorities and concerns. The RC Environmental Control Department, staffed with specialized people and equipped with latest tools, has taken the responsibility for achieving the goal of protecting the environment in Jubail Industrial City.
