In the next 5 years, Qatar has committed to spend some $145 billion in the energy, tourism, infrastructure, airlines, utilities and other sectors.

Surrounded by water on three sides, Qatar is a peninsula in the Arabian Gulf with its only land border existing at the southern end where Qatar meets Saudi Arabia. The entire country is approximately 240 kilometres from north to south, and less than 160 kilometres wide.

Qatar enjoys sunshine just about everyday of the year. The people of Qatar are friendly and make visitors feel very welcome. Arabic is the official language, although English is widely used.
