Will SAUDI ARABIA fail or succeed the NEOM CITY project? – KJ Vids

The NEOM city project is born from the ambition of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 plan which seeks to reduce Saudi Arabia’s dependence on oil, diversify its economy and develop public service sectors. NEOM is the world’s first zone to extend across three countries, stretching its borders into neighbouring Jordan and Egypt.

But is this gigantic project likely to materialise? I’m Kasim, this is KJ Vids and in this video, we will look at Saudi Arabia’s plans to build the NEOM city.
