The group\u2019s portfolio also includes King Abdullah Financial District Museum, a project being developed by Al Raidah Investment Company; and the King Abdulla Center for Cancer and Liver Disease, by King Faisal Hospital and Research Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the latter, Al Bawani\u2019s scope of work covers the preparation of the shop drawing, the procurement and delivery of construction materials, and the testing and commissioning of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Al Bawani is also carrying out works for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building in Riyadh, a project that is nearing the 90% completion mark. According to the company, its scope of work includes quality finishing, facade works, and extensive landscaping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new ministry building will reportedly comprise an auditorium, lecture halls, a library, classrooms, and a hall for visa applicants, among other features. The building is also expected to be able to accommodate a number of shared facilities, such as a cafeteria and prayer rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.constructionweekonline.com\/article-44997-2017-construction-week-power-100-21-30\/8\/\">http:\/\/www.constructionweekonline.com\/article-44997-2017-construction-week-power-100-21-30\/8\/<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Low liquidity, delayed payments, and an overall challenging market may be a reality for a number of construction firms operating in Saudi Arabia, but Fakher Al Shawaf remains positive about&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1236,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1235"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1237,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235\/revisions\/1237"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1236"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albawani.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
