There are misconceptions about Arabs, whatever the reality may be. KSA scientific endeavours will correct these anomalies and I am glad about the developments.

You are sounding like Western media, and politicians. That's only the idiotic Western public's view fed to them by their Jewish controlled media. .

I am from the west.... I am British Bangladeshi. I can only rely on personal experience.

Really!? I have great respect for them but they are not highly educated nor sophisticated.

Exactly. Moreover the majority of ‘Berbers’ of Algeria (25% of the population) hate completely all Arabs of Golf.

Thats a very good news, it should happened much earlier, we must build spare parts and parts of our weapons locally, it is very important we don't need to be blackmailed by sellers when there is a crisis and we need it.

Mosa, ignore the haters, they are the one's who ran away to other countries because their own dont provided them with enough opportunities.

Yound and educated saudis are more moderate and work oriented than the previous generation i assume? And more willing to take up the high tech jobs?

even my university teachers are going to Saudia for their MS Degree or PHD Degree from King fahad Uni where your first super computer is situated. What i like to see your universities collabrate with MIT and raise their standards up to such extent no body has to go america or europe for higher studies.
