In 2029, the Asian Winter Games will be held in Saudi Arabia.
The Wahhabi kingdom, centered in the technologically advanced metropolis of Trojan, will be the region's first host of the sporting event.
Saudi Arabia's proposal to host the AWG TROJENA2029 has been accepted, and the country's Minister of Sports, Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki al-Faisal, has announced as much. |
On Tuesday, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia officially announced that it would play host to the 2029 Asian Winter Games.
The event, which would take place in a mountain resort in the Wahhabi Kingdom, is currently being planned. Using the money from oil sales, the government in Riyadh is constructing stunning new cities with an eye toward tourism, commerce, and environmental sustainability. Saudi Arabian authorities announced the formation of a closed joint stock corporation called NEOM on January 29, 2019. The Public Investment Fund, the country's sovereign wealth fund, owns this corporation outright, and its mission is to create a thriving economic hub in the NEOM region. In an interview, NEOM joint stock company CEO Nadhmi al-Nasr said that 100% renewable energy would be used to power the project.
The Saudi government suggested designating Trojena as the venue for the Asian Winter Games in a letter submitted to the Asian Olympic Council (AOC) in August.
This proposal was part of the Saudi government's Vision 2030 strategy. It is anticipated that 32 Asian countries will take part in this edition. In a Twitter post, Minister of Sports Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki al-Faisal said that the organization had approved the plan and that the Kingdom had received the necessary response to the request after discussions on 3 and 4 October in Cambodia. AWG TROJENA2029 is the name of the issue.
Developing a technologically advanced metropolitan area is a primary goal of NEOM. Trojan, a city in the mountains in the country's northeast, has been selected to host the AWG. Vision 2030 calls for finishing the city's development by 2026. Elevations range from 1,500 to 2,600 meters, and it may be found 50 kilometers from the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba. The project's website states that its goal is to "redefine mountain tourism" by capitalizing on the area's varied climates to make it a desirable location for year-round activities, including skiing, water sports, and hiking, as well as residential flats, chalets, and hotels.
When finished in 2026, TROJENA will provide "an unrivalled experience and a global milestone for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia," according to a statement on the resort's website.
King Salman's son is an essential character in the introduction of a massive plan to overhaul the oil-dependent economy of the monarchy. |
Mohammed bin Salman ( Prince of Saudi Arabia) has started work on his most ambitious endeavor yet, the National Energy Optimization Plan (NEOM). The massive NEOM high-tech infrastructure on the Red Sea will have a carbon-neutral metropolis in addition to industrial and logistics hubs across 26.5 square kilometers.
The prince stated, "NEOM is a place for individuals who dream of a better tomorrow, and The Line is a confirmation of our strong commitment to propose a project to the whole world."
The NEOM corporation is working on more than just the Trojan City project. The business is planning The Line, the next generation of futuristic cities, as part of its Vision 2030 initiative. MBS, or Mohamed bin Salman, revealed the plans for the NEOM project for the new city and claimed it would serve as a model for other cities worldwide.
