Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA) Commissioner Muhammad Saqer said the volume of projects underway in the southern port city stood at $18 billion.

However, Marsa Zayed, a $10 billion real estate venture, is one of the mega projects in ASEZ, said Saqer, noting that other big health, environmental, industrial, tourist, transport and educational projects had been launched in the city.
ASEZ was inaugurated as a bold and timely initiative by the government of Jordan to ensure that Aqaba’s commercial and cultural prominence continues into the twenty – first century.
