Saudi Arabia Strengthens Road Safety with New Truck Regulations and Showcases Leadership in Global Industrial Collaboration and Anti-Corruption Efforts
Saudi Arabia is stepping up its road safety and fair competition measures with new regulations for foreign trucks. These trucks must settle all transportation violations before entering or exiting the country, obtain electronic transport documents, and adhere to national carrier terms, aiming to ensure road safety and infrastructure preservation.

Meanwhile, Saudi Industry Minister Bandar Alkhorayef recently explored the cutting-edge systems at the New York Stock Exchange. During his visit, he gained valuable insights into trading mechanisms and promoted global industrial collaboration at an event with the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, encouraging innovative solutions and inviting global leaders to upcoming conferences in Riyadh.

In other international engagement, a Saudi delegation led by Mazin Al-Kahmous attended the GlobE Network Meeting in Beijing, strengthening their commitment to fighting transnational corruption. This network, started by Saudi Arabia during the 2020 G20 Summit and adopted by the UN in 2021, now includes over 120 countries, with Saudi Arabia serving as vice chair.

The United Nations has also praised Saudi Arabia for its advancements in meteorological services and environmental initiatives. The World Meteorological Organization highlighted the Saudi Green Initiative's role in environmental protection and noted the nation's efforts in combating desertification and managing water resources through effective collaboration.

Reinforcing its anti-corruption leadership, Saudi Arabia's participation in the Global Operational Network of Anti-Corruption Law Enforcement Authorities plenary meeting in Beijing was acknowledged. President Mazin Al-Kahmous emphasized the kingdom's ongoing commitment to combating transnational corruption, showcasing the impact of the GlobE Network.

Lastly, the Saudi Local Conference of Youth 2024 in Riyadh highlighted efforts to empower young people in climate innovation. Organized by the Saudi Youth Climate Network and Global Shapers Community Jeddah Hub, the conference featured expert discussions and concluded with a National Youth Statement for COP29 and a Memorandum of Understanding to boost youth climate action, aligning with Vision 2030.
