RIYADH: The General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) hosted the opening of the 2019 Global Aviation Summit (GAS), a two-day international forum, at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Riyadh on Monday.
In his opening address, Saudi Minister of Transport Dr. Nabeel Al-Amoudi discussed the value of the industry to the Kingdom, stating that civil aviation generated an estimated $126 billion annually, as well as providing 527,000 jobs.
He also discussed the recent accidents involving two Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, saying there were no immediate plans to allow the model to operate in Saudi airspace. 鈥淭here were no 737 MAX aircraft flying in the Kingdom at the time,鈥� he said, 鈥渁nd there aren鈥檛 plans for them to fly again in the near future.鈥� Boeing鈥檚 top-selling MAX jet was grounded globally last month after two fatal crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia.
Boeing鈥檚 senior managing director for commercial marketing, Darren Hulst, gave a keynote address where he discussed the Kingdom鈥檚 peculiarly opportune position in the global aviation industry.
鈥湺兑醵淌悠� is unique, both as a strategic location and a destination, through pilgrimage and the Hajj and Umrah sector, and growing tourism opportunities,鈥� he said.
鈥淭here is also the whole economic industry that comes along with aviation. Boeing has been a part of building that industry here in the last few decades, with various partnerships and joint ventures, and we are continuing to accelerate those investments.鈥�
The history of civil aviation in 抖阴短视频 effectively began in 1945, when a twin-engine Dakota DC-3 was gifted to King Abdul Aziz by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt. It was the first aircraft to land in the Kingdom, and it marked the beginning of Boeing鈥檚 relationship with the country.
鈥淲hen we think about where we are today and where we can be as an industry in the next decade, the opportunities are limitless,鈥� Hulst continued. 鈥淲hen you take into consideration the number of airplanes to support, the number of people to train, and the value of goods and services produced, we think this country has a unique advantage. In general, aviation growth has always doubled in relation to economic growth. Here in 抖阴短视频, though, because of all of its advantages, we see a fourfold multiplier effect. Boeing looks forward to being a part of it.鈥�
The GACA鈥檚 media spokesman, Ibrahim Al-Rosa, said: 鈥淲e are hosting over 150 high-profile individuals, including the heads of the world鈥檚 largest aviation companies. The GACA has long believed in the importance of this industry, its development and progress, which includes investment opportunities and the ushering in of a promising young generation of men and women.鈥�
Female GACA employees also spoke at length about their roles and experience in the aviation industry. At the 鈥淲omen in Aviation鈥� panel discussion, Haifa Hamedaldean, transformation project manager for the Saudi Air Navigation Services (SANS), discussed the roles women now hold in aviation.
鈥淚鈥檓 delighted to represent SANS as a vehicle for female empowerment in the aviation industry,鈥� Hamedaldean said. 鈥淪ANS not only attracts women in administrative roles, but also in operational ones. In little over a year, SANS has grown the number of women employed from zero to 38. You鈥檒l find them in strategy, management, engineering and information technology. You鈥檒l see them in human resources, in training and recruitment. Eleven of our women serve as air-traffic controllers and we are expecting 15 more to join us by the end of this year.鈥�
As 抖阴短视频 continues to diversify its economy, the civil aviation industry represents a key pillar in that change, given the country鈥檚 location as a global logistical hub. Investment deals proposed at the GAS could see thousands of jobs created, and would raise the Kingdom鈥檚 global ranking in the Logistics Performance Index from 49 to 25. Direct foreign investment, currently at 3.8 percent, would rise to 5.7 percent of the gross domestic product. At the GAS, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the Kingdom and Argentina on air transport cooperation, while agreements were also signed with Georgia and Chad, in addition to an air service agreement between the GACA and the Cypriot government.
