In January 2015, the journey began—a defining era marked by distinction, shaped by an unprecedented path and a character unlike any before it. Standards shifted, and ambitions rose toward a horizon of extraordinary vision, guided by principles of discipline and driven by maturity and wisdom. It was an era that brought about profound transformation and a true qualitative leap.
Yet every transformation carries its costs—its consequences and outcomes that capture public attention, dividing opinion between the perceptive and the unaware. Amid this divide, we bear the responsibility of conveying the message: to affirm what is true and to correct what has been misunderstood. And so, the stature of the Kingdom of Vision remains steadfast, standing firm between the clashing forces of rentier dependency and sustainability. We live within this era, shaped by its struggles and transitions, as the contest between these two forces intensifies—each revealing its presence in a fierce and ongoing duel, until the full picture becomes clear.
"Within the pages of this book lies a structured methodology and a compelling argument—one that responds to criticism not grounded in deep inquiry, understanding, and careful study. What you hold is the culmination of years of research and reflection, offering a perspective that empowers you to challenge the rentier system and align yourself with a future built on sustainability. In time, you will come to grasp the depth of the Vision’s philosophy and appreciate the height of its ambition—standing with patience before every change, and enduring the bitterness of its costs, like a necessary medicine whose harshness is temporary, yet essential in a transitional phase that will inevitably pass."

Why are oil revenues not enough for economic sustainability?
Oil revenues may finance the state temporarily, but they do not necessarily build a productive economy capable of generating income when the resource declines or prices change.
How does value-added tax affect consumption?
Value-added tax raises the cost of goods and services for consumers, and may reduce demand if not matched by income or productivity growth.
