Jeddah/Kuwait, November 29, SPA-- The Custodian of the Two Holy
Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has affirmed that the
economy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is excellent and that Saudi
'sovereign' funds are safe in the global economic crisis.

that the five-year development plan will be administered as planned,
calling on the people of the Kingdom to be assured and aware of that,
and stressing that they will not suffer any losses.


The King said, "The visual and audio international media everywhere
in the world have created a fearful atmosphere, as if what is
happening in America can happen in Riyadh, Jeddah or any of the
cities of the Kingdom. People facing this abundance of information do
not know whom they should believe. We assure the people based on the
facts that we know and aware of."

peace, stability, security and safety."
