LONDON, Nov. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Summary
The sharp fall of global oil prices hit the major revenue generation source for the Middle East, forcing the Gulf countries to reform their economies so as to weather further decline of the economic condition. While the oil prices are slowly becoming dearer, the Middle Eastern economy is gaining a bullish outlook as reflected by the ICT budget
