Foreign direct investments (FDI) in the GCC countries fell 35 percent in 2011, according to The World Investment Report 2012 powered by the UN Conference on Trade and Development.

Nevertheless, the GCC remains one of the fastest growing world markets with an unbelievable role to the global economy that attracts FDI due to the following reasons:

Global strategic location with no barriers between the GCC states and zero taxes
The major crude oil and gas exporter
Resistance to the latest global financial problems
Young population
Global hub of green events
Rapid groth in business services, investments, real estate, infrastructure, constructions and green economy

GCC should implement principle of zero waste

Dr. Mohamed A. Raouf, 7 November, 2010, Gulf Research Center

Growing population and high levels of urbanisation have increased the demand for urban services in the Arabian Gulf region, including solid waste management. Further, owing to acceleration in the pace of industrialisation, the generation of hazardous and non-hazardous industrial wastes and biomedical waste has increased. Waste generation rates are affected by socio-economic development, degree of industrialisation, and climate change. Generally, the greater the economic prosperity and the higher the percentage of urban population, the greater the amount of solid waste produced. Read more
