<HRH Prince Sultan bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, Chairman of the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage, emphasized the effectiveness of the tourism sector in economic development and is not affected by the decline in oil resources and fluctuating prices.
<This came during his speech at the opening of the Fourth International Conference and Exhibition for the Preservation of Urban Heritage, which opened in Dubai recently, under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority and President of Emirates Airlines.
His Highness pointed out that the current deterioration of the Arab world is due in part to the removal of man from the place, the values and ethics of that place and its national and historical identity, pointing out that the GCC countries have been alerted to this through their recent projects to rehabilitate the heritage and link
His Highness praised the efforts made by the GCC countries to preserve the heritage.
His Highness praised the great interest of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques - may God protect him - in supporting the national heritage in the Kingdom for more than 50 years, since he assumed the Emirate of Riyadh until the present time, which culminated in his adoption of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Project for Civilized Heritage to highlight the cultural dimension of the Kingdom's land in a way that consolidates its cultural status and historical depth throughout the ages, based on his belief that the national heritage is one of the main components of the future of our country.
