Saudi Arabia eyes 10 spots on world's top 50 cities: Al-Hogail

Minister of Municipal, Rural Affairs, and Housing, Majed Al-Hogail, said that the ministry aims to earn at least 10 spots on the world's top 50 cities list.

This will be realized by achieving governance and sustainability, interacting with residents to meet their aspirations and desires, and offering high well-being for them, Al-Hogail said at the Global Smart Cities Forum.

He added that four Saudi cities have been named to the smart cities index last year.
