I think, finally, the Saudi government under Prince Salman has started making decisions which are worthy to be noticed.  These decision whether they are in the field of education, culture, religion, entertainment, economy etc., all are for the well being of its subjects.  They are needed in the 21st century to be able to compete on a global basis.  Yes, Saudis have lots of oil reserves, but how long they will last.  What happens when the oil wells go dry.  How would Saudis survive?  What Saudis need is a good educational curriculum, good universities pursuing high educational system teaching students science, math, different global languages, engineering and architecture etc. so that Saudis can compete with the global talents also.  I am glad that Prince Salman has realized that 7th century Muslim ideology is obsolete and it needs to be replaced with the new thinking and new ideology to survive.  It is always prudent to change with the changing times.  Saudi government should also attract more manufacturing in Saudi Arabia, instead of just buying material from other countries.  The bigger, multi-faceted and expanded manufacturing base a country has, the better off that country is.
