Judges: Jordan Can Lead Regional Silica Project
Jordanian Minister of Industry and Trade, Yaacoub Qudah, emphasized that the kingdom possesses the resources and capabilities necessary to establish a comprehensive regional project in silica industries. The goal is to strengthen its presence in advanced manufacturing sectors and achieve high value addition. He proposed a regional initiative that capitalizes on Jordan's silica reserves by integrating the processes of purification, silicon production, and silicon chip manufacturing, linking these production stages with neighboring countries such as the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait. This integration aims to enhance the supply chain to encompass semiconductors, solar energy, and fiber optic industries, thereby expanding investment and export opportunities and elevating the region's market standing globally. He affirmed that such collaboration would boost the area's competitiveness in data industries and modern technologies, representing a step toward self-sufficiency through regional cooperation across different production stages. This relies particularly on rail connectivity and integrated infrastructure to ensure trade flexibility and increased competitiveness, while also leveraging free trade agreements to facilitate the expansion of these projects.
