Landscape Middle East

The end of a year of change
Last January marked what will go down in history, as the beginning of a revolution in the Middle East. We can all say that we witnessed it as the first stone was thrown in Tunisia then Egypt, Yemen and Libya and Syria. No doubt the unrest will continue into 2012 but we can only hope that this year brings an end to the uncertainties and upheavals that have engulfed the whole region on both a political and business front.
As we take the time to briefly reflect on 2011, and what it meant for the entire Middle East we can only hope that the challenges ahead are met with an renewed energy and spirit as a resulted of the many lives sacrificed over the past year.  

Only time will tell if the winds of change have altered the region’s business and political landscape for the better or worst.

Either way it was remarkable to witness the energy and raw passion of the Arab youth that galvanized the social media into action and reignited the believe that the Middle East region as a whole is buzzing with creativity and innovative approaches that will slowly represent itself in all aspects of the our community life.

Let’s hope that this energy and enthusiasm can be used in other ways in the year ahead, to literally transform the region’s landscape and put environmental issues at the top of the agenda for 2012, in order to prevent climate change and water shortages that will affect us all in the not too distant future.

Till we meet again, and as Landscape Magazine January 2012 issue goes to press we take the time to wish all of our readers, staff and numerous supporters a happy and peaceful New Year. God Bless you all
