Modern, dynamic public sector key to growth
Manama : A modern and dynamic public sector that can facilitate long-term prosperity through private sector growth enjoys prime priority in the next phase of Bahrain’s development, said Deputy King, His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, yesterday.
Prince Salman was visiting the Majlises of the sons of the late Ali bin Yousif Fakhro and Mohamed bin Abdulla Al Mannai. HH Shaikh Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa accompanied HRH during the visits.
Welcoming the national efforts to achieve the Kingdom’s development goals, the Deputy King stressed the importance of doubling these efforts during the next phase of the Kingdom’s development programme, led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.
His Royal Highness highlighted that the key priorities of the next phase of development includes delivery of a modern and dynamic public sector that can facilitate long-term prosperity through private sector growth, supporting innovation to increase competitiveness, and investing in citizens’ futures to further improve their living standards.
The Deputy King also added that enhancing public services and legislative frameworks in order to strengthen Bahrain’s international competitiveness, and streamlining government procedures, are vital to transitioning development goals into tangible results that directly benefit Bahrain’s citizens. In this regard, Prince Salman pointed out that major strategic projects being implemented by the Kingdom exceed $32 billion in value, creating a solid base on which to drive the growth of Bahrain’s non-oil sector.
