Dammam, February 22, SPA -- Deputy Chairman the Eastern Region's
Chamber of Commerce and Industry Saud al-Qusaibi has reiterated that
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia constitutes a fertile soil for the
foreign investors.

the Spanish businessmen has come at a time when the Kingdom is

intentional companies including the Spanish companies," he said
noting that these projects constitute a promising investment
opportunity.
