I think it is good that Saudi Arabia is making strides towards progress, mashaa Allah.

I think it would best if people stopped viewing the world in just black and white. Are there problems in and with Saudi Arabia? Yes. However, let's not deny the good. At the end of they day, these advcandments were made by individuals who I assume are Muslim, so let's be glad for them at least. If you were a scientist and you made a scientific advancement, would you want your work to be met with a simple, "maashaa Allah", or a long discussion on how your country is evil due to various reasons, reasons which can be applied across the board since all countries are involved in something which is not in line with Islam.

jazak Allahu khair akhi

as teh brother said, noone is saying saudi isnt devoid of issues but the same can be said everywhere including other lands that are regularly praised here like turkey so we should be happy for any muslim land that makes some development and pray taht there is more of it inshAllah as this is how Allahs help will materialise inshAllah, in development, unification and strengthening of the muslim lands bi ithnillah
