 Jubail New Industrial City & Saudi Arabia's Economic Development
Established by the Royal Commission for Jubail and Yanbu over 25 years ago, the scope and scale of Jubail is one of this century's major industrial development undertakings.
Although the full extent of public and private investment in Jubail's development from the mid 1970's to the early 1990's is difficult to determine, various published sources estimate the overall investment to be over 75 billion SR (over US $20 billion) with over two-thirds coming from the private sector.
This mainly was a sense that in the enormous undertaking of Jubail, which involved tens of thousands of foreigners on just this one project in their country, the Saudi people demonstrated a constant basic hospitality, kindness and sense of fairness in their daily dealings with us under sometimes exceedingly trying circumstances for all involved.
