The NEOM project is the largest project on top of the Vision 2030 projects launched by the Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman in 2017, which has become today a focus for exposing injustice, corruption and lack of vision of Saudi Arabia under the mandate of King Salman, and his young and inexperienced son, Mohamed bin Salman, after he overthrow and imprisoned his uncle.
The project has become full of protests by the people of the region, who MBS security services have been forcibly expelling them from their homes and lands, and placing those who oppose them in prison for prolonged periods of time, thus turning this project into a social obstacle from its first day.
NEOM’s major crisis is not in the embezzlement of the people’s financial capabilities that are pumped out by the Kingdom’s sovereign fund, but it is tearing the fabric of society for residents of the Neom region, which went through bad management and deliberate sabotage of the Saudi society.
The Saudi media, loyal to the crown prince, Mohamed bin Salman, has accused Al-Huwaiti sons with treason and terrorism, lies and falsehoods, in order to please the Crown Prince, even Abdel Rahim Al-Huwaiti, who recorded his last moments in life, before the security forces killed him on higher orders, was accused by the media of terrorism and resisting the authorities and wanted to create a popular army and mobilize groups against each other.
According to the misleading statements regarding the crimes it commits, the security services issued a statement saying: A number of weapons have been found in the house of Abdel Rahim Al-Huwaiti, at the time when the members of the tribe falsified this statement, and said that all weapons confiscated by the authorities had legal documents and were licensed according to the Saudi law.
The NEOM project which the crown prince wants to establish its foundations on killing the hopes of 20,000 people who were asked by the security services to leave their homes and lands and migrate to another place, in order to make way for the first stage of the project plan to be implemented , which was supposed to end in 2023, then it was changed to be in 2025, then the Administration of NEOM project that the plan is flexible, amid news of investors withdrawing from the project, and the worsening economy of the Kingdom due to the Corona epidemic and the suspension of the Hajj and Umrah.
The city of NEOM, according to the plan of Mohamed bin Salman, was to be built in the northwest of the country, to overlook the Red Sea, and will include flying taxis and robots, and it will cost $500 billion at a period of low oil prices, and at a time when the government of Saudi Arabia issued an emergency plan to cut expenses, and the Minister of Finance, Mohamed Al-Jadaan, warned against “taking strict measures, which may be painful, to confront the economic downturn due to the spread of the Corona virus and the collapse of oil prices, however he did not mention the application of those measures to NEOM, although it will be applied to all sectors of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
