Seef Properties unveils plan for a complete revamp of its flagship property, Seef Mall

Seef Properties announced a comprehensive plan to relaunch Seef Mall – Seef District with a bold new look as part of a major drive to redefine shopping and entertainment in the Kingdom. The goal is to deliver a more modern, state-of-the-art experience at one of Bahrain's best loved destinations. Over the next two years, the facility will undergo a complete transformation to redefine its identity. Introducing a more contemporary concept, it will blend shopping, entertainment, and upgraded amenities in a more inviting environment. This will create a seamless experience that better serves citizens, residents and visitors. The redevelopment will take place in phases, ensuring the mall remains fully operational while maintaining a comfortable and convenient experience for visitors. The first phase will see an upgrade to the destination's jewellery section to meet growing demand for luxury goods, while adding more variety for shoppers. Future phases will see the introduction of several global brands to the Bahraini market, including the well-known French fashion label Kiabi. The mall will also undergo a thorough review of its dining options, introducing new indoor and outdoor dining concepts. Alongside the interior renovations, surrounding green spaces will be redesigned to include shaded walkways and areas for social and family gatherings, allowing comfort of movement for mall visitors. Parking facilities will also be expanded to accommodate the anticipated rise in demand. Entertainment offerings will also see a major upgrade as part of the redevelopment. Magic Island will be relaunched with a new identity, covering approximately 3,900 square meters, including an extra 600 square meters dedicated to interactive children's games built around imaginative concepts and characters. As part of its commitment to supporting and engaging the youth, the plan includes a 2,500-square-meter social space designed for fun, energetic, and creative activities, including a range of programs and games. The overarching vision is to reinforce Seef Mall's position as a leading destination for family entertainment and leisure. The redevelopment also reflects Seef Properties' commitment to sustainability. Advanced technologies will be deployed to reduce energy and water consumption and minimize the mall's environmental footprint. These efforts align with Bahrain's goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2060, making Seef Mall a model for sustainable development in the commercial sector. Seef Properties Chief Executive Officer, Ahmed Yusuf said: 'This strategic redevelopment reflects our long-term vision to reinforce Seef Mall's position as a leading shopping and entertainment destination that evolves with retail trends. We are dedicated to developing high-quality projects that support Bahrain's urban and economic growth while contributing to key sectors such as tourism and retail. The project is also part of our strategy to diversify our portfolio and create greater value for our shareholders, partners, and the wider community.' Since its launch, Seef Mall has been a pioneer of Bahrain's retail landscape, becoming the first destination to fully integrate shopping, entertainment, and world-class amenities. With this redevelopment plan, Seef Mall reaffirms its commitment to delivering a unique experience that resonates with new generations, while remaining a first choice for families in Bahrain, the Gulf, and beyond.

France and Bahrain Celebrate a Golden Friendship

TDT | Manama A Festive Bastille Day, was marked with grandeur and diplomacy at the Sofitel Bahrain, where French Ambassador, His Excellency Eric Giraud-Telme, delivered a powerful speech celebrating the deepening ties between France and Bahrain. In his address, Ambassador Giraud-Telme reflected on a year of significant milestones in the France–Bahrain relationship, emphasizing shared values, mutual respect, and a commitment to global peace and development. One of the most symbolic moments of the past year was the official visit of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa to Paris. During a meeting with President Emmanuel Macron at the Élysée Palace, both leaders reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening cooperation in key sectors such as energy, infrastructure, defense, and transportation. Ambassador Giraud-Telme emphasized the importance of cultural diplomacy and the promotion of the French language in Bahrain. He described culture as a 'bridge between nations' and highlighted several ongoing initiatives supporting education, arts, cinema, fashion, and professional training. French businesses have shown growing interest in Bahrain, with major delegations visiting the Kingdom in recent months. Institutions are actively supporting partnerships in tourism, finance, and infrastructure. The Ambassador spoke firmly on global issues. He reiterated France's call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, the release of hostages, and humanitarian access. He also reaffirmed France's support for Ukraine in its defense against Russian intervention, in line with international law and the UN Charter. UN Security Council Partnership Ambassador Giraud-Telme congratulated Bahrain on its recent election to the United Nations Security Council, stating that France looks forward to working side by side with Bahrain starting January 2026. 'We share many common views on international peace, diplomacy, and development,' he said. A Festive Bastille Day The evening was more than just diplomatic — it was a celebration of French culture and friendship. Guests were treated to French cuisine, music, and a unique artistic showcase that included elements of artificial intelligence.

Syria signs $800 mn port deal with UAE-based company

Syria signed an $800 million deal with UAE-based company DP World yesterday to develop the port of Tartus, state media reported, as the new authorities continue their efforts to support post-war reconstruction. Following the toppling of longtime Syrian ruler Bashar al-Assad in December, the new Islamist authorities have worked to reconnect the country to global companies and kickstart reconstruction after 14 years of civil war. 'In the presence of President Ahmed Al-Sharaa, an agreement was signed between the General Authority for Land and Sea Ports and DP World, valued at $800 million, as a strategic step aimed at enhancing port infrastructure and logistics services in Syria,' state-run news agency SANA said. Following the signing of the deal, DP World CEO Sultan Bin Sulayem said Syria's economy had 'significant assets, including the Port of Tartus, which represents an opportunity to transport and export many Syrian industries.' In a statement also shared by state media, he pledged to make Tartus 'one of the best ports in the world.' DP World operates dozens of marine and inland ports and terminals globally, particularly in Asia, Africa, and Europe. The Syrian civil war devastated the country's infrastructure, and the new authorities hope to use the lifting of Western sanctions to attract investments and fuel reconstruction efforts. Qutaiba Badawi, head of the General Authority for Land and Sea Ports, said the parties were 'not merely signing a technical agreement, but we are laying the foundation for a new phase of field and maritime work in Syria, repositioning ourselves on the regional and international economic map.' In May, Damascus signed a 30-year contract with French shipping giant CMA CGM to develop and run the port of Latakia. That same month, Syria signed a $7 billion energy deal with a consortium of Qatari, Turkish, and US companies as part of efforts to revive its crippled power sector.
