Scheduled for completion by 2028, the 725-meter high, 131+ story tower offers an exquisite mix of residential, hotel, retail and entertainment spaces. An ultra luxury mall, home to most high-end fashion brands, will occupy the retail section. The residential section will include luxurious one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments.

Moving up, the luxury apartments will be topped by ultra luxury penthouses, ranging from one to five-bedroom units and enjoying exclusive access to all amenities. Separate lobbies will serve the residences and the penthouse units.
Up even higher along this vertical world is an all-suite seven-star hotel, set to become a major attraction that will take Dubai's standards of luxury and opulence to new heights. Inspired by seven cultural themes – Arabic, Chinese, Persian, Indian, Turkish, French and Russian – the hotel will offer a new standard in comfort and hospitality, including culturally styled restaurants for each cultural theme. An authentic Emirati restaurant will be another key feature of the hotel. Moreover, the hotel will include a luxury ballroom and a beach club.

Surge in conflicts fuels extreme poverty: World Bank - Region
Conflicts and related fatalities have more than tripled since the early 2000s, fueling extreme poverty, the World Bank said. Economies in fragile and conflict-affected regions have become "the epicentre of global poverty and food insecurity, a situation increasingly shaped by the frequency and intensity of conflict," the bank added in a new study. This year, 421 million people get by on less than $3 a day in places hit by conflict or instability -- a situation of extreme poverty -- and the number is poised to hit 435 million by 2030. Global attention has been focused on conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East for the past three years, said World Bank Group chief economist Indermit Gill. But "half of the countries facing conflict or instability today have been in such conditions for 15 years or more," he added. Currently, 39 economies are classified as facing such conditions, and 21 of them are in active conflict, the Washington-based development lender said. The list includes Ukraine, Somalia, South Sudan, and the West Bank and Gaza. It also includes Iraq, although not Iran. The report flagged that moves to prevent conflict can bring high returns, with timely interventions being "far more cost-effective than responding after violence erupts." It also said that some of these economies have advantages that could be used to reignite growth, noting that places like Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and the Democratic Republic of Congo are rich in minerals key to clean tech like electric vehicles and solar panels. "Economic stagnation -- rather than growth -- has been the norm in economies hit by conflict and instability over the past decade and a half," said Ayhan Kose, World Bank Group deputy chief economist. The bank's report noted that high-intensity conflicts, which kill more than 150 per million people, are typically followed by a cumulative fall of around 20 per cent in GDP per capita after five years.

OPEN// Bulgaria seeks Chinese investment in high-value-added sectors, says BCCI
SOFIA, June 26 (MENA) - Bulgaria is seeking to attract Chinese investment in sectors where the country holds traditional advantages and in industries that generate high added value and enhance economic competitiveness, said Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) Vice President Vasil Todorov. He was speaking Thursday at an international conference marking the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the Association for the Promotion of Agricultural Cooperation between China and the Central and Eastern European Countries (APACCCEEC), taking place at Grand Hotel Sofia, the Bulgarian News Agency reported. Among the key sectors for investment, Todorov highlighted agriculture, mechanical engineering, automotive manufacturing and parts production, electronics and electrical engineering, information and communication technologies (ICT), and tourism. Todorov noted that relations between Bulgaria and China date back to 1985, when the first cooperation agreement was signed between the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade and BCCI. He emphasized that BCCI has been a long-standing partner of the APACCCEEC since its inception, and a memorandum of cooperation was signed in 2016. The two organizations have jointly organized various events, disseminated information to stakeholders and institutions, and collaborated on the agricultural startup accelerator program run by APACCCEEC. Todorov added that the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry also takes part in events related to the One Belt, One Road initiative, recognizing the benefits of cooperation between China and the CEE countries.
