Gotta spend that criminal income somehow right? And i mean why not? They have a army of forced labour force aka modern day slave labout army. So its ultra cheap actually. They dont have to pay jackshit for the workers. A big portion of cost in moderatly normal countries comes from the actual labour being done on it. But since saudi and many of its friends actually actively engage in slave labour, its way cheaper.
I remember one mega-project called "Jeddah Tower". Let's see how it's going: holy cannoli, Godfather, that project started in 2013? That was a long time ago! It's finished, right? Ohh Noo! 😱 "Status: ON HOLD"! "Estimated completion: UNKNOWN" Hey, Saudi guys: maybe finish ONE of these projects first. You know, the one you started a DECADE ago? That one.
Jeddah tower is a private project, not a government one and the reason that why it's stooped because the owners of it got arrested for corruption (the Ritz Carlton corruption crackdown), and its still on hold ever since.

A 14% poverty rate is a wild underestimate, too … Saudi Arabia’s population is not just citizens, but comprises in large part migrant laborers and undocumented immigrants from all over the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, and beyond, who often serve as de facto slave labor for these obscene mega-projects. (Saudi Arabia in fact largely subsidizes the lavish lifestyle of its sprawling monarchy with slave labor, an obscenity which the industrialized world largely ignores in exchange for the steady flow of oil.) If we, as we should, regard Saudi Arabia’s population as being not just the kingdom’s citizens but in fact all its residents - or, in the nomenclature of absolute monarchies, “subjects,” ugh … didn’t France have a whole revaluation over shit like this?? - then the poverty rate is considerably higher than 14%, and probably closer to, *at a minimum,* 34% … and probably much higher, but the Saudi government is notoriously opaque with its figures and routinely blocks the U.N.’s special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights from accessing economic data.
Let us know when they complete any of their other mega projects first. How many things have they abandoned after starting or had implode because the aesthetics were more important than the engineering?

And all I can think of is When the Prophet (ﷺ) was asked about the signs of the Final Hour, one of the signs he mentioned was "when you see the barefoot, naked, destitute shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings.”. When asked to elaborate further, the Prophet (ﷺ) said that they are from the Arabs
It's quite unlikely that's gonna happen so soon. The larger a project is the longer it takes to be built and projects much smaller than this one take usually more than 7 years to complete.
Although all of these megaprojects look cool as fuck, l'm wondering if they are getting ahead of themselves being a little over ambitious working on 3 of them simultaneously, they should just focus on one at a time
That's what I was thinking. To fund multiple projects at once just seems short sighted - money problems happen, and if you're dividing that money between multiple sights not even one thing will get done.
The Kingdom tower is a private development by business men not government the government can finish mega projects Paris was a government mega project when it was built not a private project .
After seeing a video of a woman dragged across a busy street and her head cut off with a big sword in front of a police officer/security in Saudi Arabia, as long as Saudi Arabia's laws allow the beheading of people, the imprisonment of people if they deny believing in Muhammed - they call it blasphemy laws, and as long as a Crown Prince gets away with ordering the dismemberment of a journalist in a Saudi Embassy in Turkey while the Prince listens in on a phone back in Saudi Arabia... dont' expect the world to drop everything to come running to Saudi Arabia - a theocratic monarchy - to live or as tourists.
Agreed. At the very least, the Saudis would have to ease up on some of their strictness like the UAE has. Dubai has drawn more investment (Burj Khalifa, etc.) precisely because they've liberalized somewhat on the ultrastrict Shaira laws. Tourists, for example will want to visit beaches in bikinis and drink booze, both of which happen in Dubai, but in Saudi Arabia? Nope.
This is the most realistic of all their mega projects. But I wish they use their money to convert the whole desert to a vast green forest with a thriving ecosystem.
Yeah but that would make sense and wouldn't make their country's dick look longer to other Arab countries. Gaddafi was going to make Libya green by digging into the enormous underground aquifers but he got... interrupted in the process

You do not know how to pray in order to criticize the country that started Islam. We are not obligated to feed every human being on this planet. Work in your country so that you can eat and do not wait for charity from other countries.
Anyone heard about a Saudi project called "The Egg"? Nothing precise is known yet about the timetable, the architectual form and the site but it is expected to be ambitious and should be finalized by 2030....
When you say "we" you mean that you are involved in the construction of this building? Because if this is one of those arguments of "humanity is bad" you could start thinking that not everyone in humanity is building this stupid cube or even wasting resources.
The most important question is if \slamic Sharia Law would be enforced within Neom/The Line, as it is through out Saudi Arabia. If that's the case, the entire project is a completely futile excercise.
Sharia in Saudi is not the same has it is in Qatar. I would ask anyone reading this to look up the appalling laws against women under Sharia in Saudi Arabia.
considering they take zero refugees and the only money that leaves the country is to build and staff mega mosques in Europe, while being completely religiously intolerant on their soil, while if you're a Saudi and say, grape or murder a citizen abroad, all you need do is get to an embassy where they will give you a fake passport and a private jet home.
So... what is the fire escape plan in this building? Will there be underground fire safe exits? This entire building has electricity running to literally every inch of the perimeter. One fire incident and it’s all going up.
It sure looks like the leaders of Saudi Arabia come up with some highly unusual ideas for cities and buildings. This plan for a huge cube shaped building reminds me of the cube shaped space ship of the Borg on Star Trek. A giant size cube is an ugly shape for a building and will likely be impractical common uses.

None of these are as big and ridiculous as these. Also, these mega projects are based on ACTUAL, sustainable NEEDS....these new ones are just made so they can have large sources of income after their oil is depleted, and there's nothing wrong with that.

If I need to use Saudi Arabia's mega ambitious projects to show that megastructures is the next step of evolution for us then I will. Hence why this is fascinating. Hopefully, decades later, other countries will start to build skyscraper high arcologies to house a large population efficiently and more compactly.
@@theonlythingihavetosayis9333 vertical expansion is NOT more eco friendly or efficient. Vertical expansion only makes sense if you have no arable land left to build on like Japan where most of Jaoan's area is rocky mountains. Otherwise, skyscrapers are literally the opposite of effeciency, the amount of infrastructure, and structure needed to support and supply them is HUGE compared to medium rise buildings of the same capacity. What saudi is doing is basically creating problems then solving them using advanced technology, which is DUMB but most importantly extremely inefficient, they're wasting money, resources, and energy all for what??? An "iconic" building??? Seems desperate. There are zero forest there they can build on most of the land that is available. A building being "big" will NEVER be impressive unless there's an ACTUAL NEED for the building to be this big, like a certain city or region actually NEEDING such a large structure to fulfil their needs. Otherwise it's just for vanity reasons and a complete waste of capital. You know NOTHING about architecture and urban design and it SHOWS

mabye spend that money to raise the remaining 14% of the population out of poverty? big cube is cool to i guess.
A 14% poverty rate is a wild underestimate, too … Saudi Arabia’s population is not just citizens, but comprises in large part migrant laborers and undocumented immigrants from all over the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, and beyond, who often serve as de facto slave labor for these obscene mega-projects. (Saudi Arabia in fact largely subsidizes the lavish lifestyle of its sprawling monarchy with slave labor, an obscenity which the industrialized world largely ignores in exchange for the steady flow of oil.) If we, as we should, regard Saudi Arabia’s population as being not just the kingdom’s citizens but in fact all its residents - or, in the nomenclature of absolute monarchies, “subjects,” ugh … didn’t France have a whole revaluation over shit like this?? - then the poverty rate is considerably higher than 14%, and probably closer to, *at a minimum,* 34% … and probably much higher, but the Saudi government is notoriously opaque with its figures and routinely blocks the U.N.’s special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights from accessing economic data.

Agreed. At the very least, the Saudis would have to ease up on some of their strictness like the UAE has. Dubai has drawn more investment (Burj Khalifa, etc.) precisely because they've liberalized somewhat on the ultrastrict Shaira laws. Tourists, for example will want to visit beaches in bikinis and drink booze, both of which happen in Dubai, but in Saudi Arabia? Nope.

@@theonlythingihavetosayis9333 vertical expansion is NOT more eco friendly or efficient. Vertical expansion only makes sense if you have no arable land left to build on like Japan where most of Jaoan's area is rocky mountains.
Otherwise, skyscrapers are literally the opposite of effeciency, the amount of infrastructure, and structure needed to support and supply them is HUGE compared to medium rise buildings of the same capacity.
