I want to read an excerpt really for the benefit of our audience from Vision 2030.
00:05
It goes as follows.
00:07
This ambitious roadmap leverages the kingdom's unique strengths,
00:12
its pivotal role in the Arab and Islamic worlds,
00:15
its strong investment capabilities and its strategic geographical position.
00:19
Vision 2030 is a blueprint that is diversifying the economy, empowering citizens,
00:24
creating a vibrant environment for both local and international investors
00:28
and establishing Saudi Arabia as a global leader.
00:31
Vision 2030 is transforming the socioeconomic landscape of the country.
00:35
It is improving the quality of life for our citizens and residents.
00:39
Saudi Arabia is forging a future where tradition, innovation and sustainability go hand in hand,
00:44
providing endless opportunities for citizens to realize their potential
00:48
and ushering in a new era of development and prosperity for the kingdom.
00:53
You know very well that the vision has three key pillars.
00:59
One of them is entitled A Vibrant Society.
01:02
I'd like to ask you, how does Vision 2030 balance these various goals?
01:08
You know, it's got Saudi heritage and values on the one hand,
01:11
traditional, quite conservative, and a push for modernization on the other side.
01:17
How do you reconcile the two?
01:18
It's a fantastic question and it's a important question.
01:22
And that's a process that's actually continuous.
01:24
It's still till now.
01:26
For me, what I would say is that I think striking this balance
01:30
and I think the negotiation between managing the traditions
01:35
and I think the aspect of modernity or the social reform
01:42
is not something that just started within 2030.
01:47
I think this was a discussion that was really taking place even before.
01:51
You know, it's very fascinating how, you know, young the Saudi state is
01:58
and how big the gaps are between the generations.
02:02
You know, it really leapfrog a lot of these things.
02:06
So, I mean, you know, in my parents' generation,
02:09
there were probably barely cars around.
02:11
And then all of a sudden, here I am in our generation,
02:16
you know, being a kid in the 90s and 2000s,
02:20
there were worlds apart.
02:23
They were literally worlds apart.
02:24
And then you have this generation, Generation Z.
02:26
The one that
02:27
And then you've made it.
02:28
It was amazing.
02:28
That's a design.
02:29
The one that you surveyed is how much of the Prince gets
02:30
is, we have a challenge and there.
02:31
And look at this example.
02:32
So we're actually able to consider a change.
02:33
This experience is, you know,
02:34
theseلم 하는ococytes,
02:34
you know,
02:36
and your clients try to help them tiếng the same way of love.
02:36
And it's very easy.
02:37
You know,
02:38
that's a big time,
02:38
like,
02:39
you know,
02:40
you know when you're gelecek.
02:41
You know what about the 2017?
02:42
The three games that I put a ball on,
02:44
Right.
02:45
So,
02:45
this is a game that existe.
02:47
That's a game that starts with
02:48
you know.
02:49
You know,
02:50
this is something that you can hear.
