Qatari Contractor Mr. Mohamed Moataz Al Khayyat Focuses on Green Real Estate Projects in the Arabian Gulf Region
Mr. Moataz Al Khayyat of UrbaCon Contracting and Trading comments on the relationship between the rise in the volume of tourists visiting the Arab Gulf and the increasing need for green ecofriendly construction projects.
Doha, Qatar, May 21, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Taking a break out in the Persian Gulf region has never been more attractive with the ever increasing choice of high-end ecofriendly holiday resorts, shopping centres, residential-business complexes along with a variety of multinational restaurants catering for all. The growth of tourism is reflected in the rapid pace in which projects are being developed in the major cities such as Dubai (UAE) and Doha (Qatar).
According to the World Tourism Organization, tourism in the Arab region grew in 2014 by two percent as a result of increased traffic in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and indicates revenues from tourism in the Gulf region went up by as much as 10.4 per cent in the year 2015. The increase in the number of visitors creates a need for construction of new real estate and growth of the service industry.
Qataris moving strongly towards the implementation of green real estate projects, which reduces both the negative impacts of buildings on the environment as well as the construction operating costs.
