The event was also attended by a number of senior officials from the Bahrain government and the Kingdom's business community. CIO, IBM and GBM have worked closely together over the last two years to build an end to end e-government infrastructure for Bahrain on a platform based on open standards. Bahrain is the first government in the Middle East to join a growing number of governments around the world who are adopting open standards for their e-government initiatives in order to benefit from reduced costs and increased flexibility. 'Standards based technologies offer unprecedented opportunities for modernization throughout society in our country and we believe that this is the best way to move forwards with e-government projects not only in Bahrain, but in the whole Middle East region as well,' said Sheikh Ahmed Ateyatalla Al Khalifa, President of the CIO. 'We have a unique experience in that we've built our e-government infrastructure on open standards and I am proud to say that it has been a successful project. The establishment of the centre today will allow us to share our experience with other government organizations and enable them to access the latest open standards solutions they can use for their own e-government initiatives.'

Bahrain: Government Structure, 1993 Shaykh Isa ibn Salman Al Khalifa, ruler of Bahrain Courtesy Embassy of Bahrain, Washington Manama, capital of Bahrain Courtesy Embassy of Bahrain, Washington In 1993 Bahrain was a constitutional monarchy in the form of an amirate with an executive-cabinet form of government and a separate judiciary (see fig. 8 ). The amir is head of state and also supreme commander of the Bahrain Defense Force (BDF); he exercises ultimate authority in all matters pertaining to the government. In addition to the amir, Shaykh Isa ibn Salman, principal government officials include his eldest son and heir apparent, Hamad ibn Isa, who is commander in chief of the BDF and deputy prime minister, and several other members of the ruling Al Khalifa. In accordance with the constitution adopted in 1973, the office of amir passes from father to eldest son unless the amir designates another male relative to succeed him. This clause of the constitution is not subject to amendment. Although the amir has substantial executive powers, in practice he has delegated decision-making authority to a cabinet since 1956, when an amiri decree created the Administrative Council, an eleven-member body that advised the ruler on policy and supervised the growing bureaucracy. In 1970 Shaykh Isa ibn Salman issued a decree that transformed the Administrative Council into a twelve-member Council of Ministers. The president of the Council of Ministers, the prime minister, serves as the head of government. The amir appoints the prime minister, who then forms a government by selecting members of the Council of Ministers, albeit in consultation with the amir. The ministers are directly responsible to the prime minister, who, like the amir, has authority to veto a decision by any member of the council.

Home World Map Rankings Countries from A to Z A B C D ...

He championed a program of democratic reform shortly after his succession. In November 2000, Shaikh Hamad established a committee to create a blueprint to transform Bahrain from a hereditary emirate to a constitutional monarchy within 2 years. The resulting “National Action Charter” was presented to the Bahraini public in a referendum in February 2001. In the first comprehensive public vote in Bahrain since the 1970s, 94.8% of voters overwhelmingly endorsed the charter . That same month, Shaikh Hamad pardoned all political prisoners and detainees, including those who had been imprisoned, exiled or detained on security charges. He also abolished the State Security Law and the State Security Court, which had permitted the government to detain individuals without trial for up to 3 years. On February 14, 2002,one year after the referendum endorsing his National Action Charter, Shaikh Hamad pronounced Bahrain a constitutional monarchy and changed his status from Amir to King. He simultaneously announced that the first municipal elections since 1957 would be held in May 2002, and that a bicameral parliament, with a representative lower house, would be reconstituted with parliamentary elections in October 2002. As part of these constitutional reforms, the government also created an independent financial watchdog empowered to investigate cases of embezzlement and violations of state expenditure in July 2002.

The legislation, currently before the government, will provide a legal framework for the establishment of trade unions and has been devised as part of the ongoing and wide reaching reform process enacted by Bahrain's government. The legislation was drafted following a directive from the Emir, Sheikh Hamad, on 28 May 2001 for the creation of independent trade unions. The directive called on the General Committee of Bahraini Workers (GCBW), the most senior representative body for Bahraini employees, to assist in the drafting of a new legal framework. On 17 September, the annual meeting of the GCBW approved the draft legislation on the creation of independent trade unions after a day of scrutiny and deliberation. Seventy-five workers representatives attended the annual meeting, where discussions took place with the guidance of experts, specifically a team from the International Labour Organisation, led by Mr Obaid Al-Bureiki. The Head of Labour Activities Projects Financing, Mr Walid Hamdan, and representatives from the Bahrain Lawyers Society, were also present at the annual meeting.

January 2001 Volume 2 Issue 1 Produced by the Gulf Centre for Strategic Studies Human Rights Watch World Report Human Rights Watch (HRW), the US-based human rights organisation, published its annual World Report in December 2000. The report presents a different picture of Bahrain in comparison with previous years, and highlights some of the encouraging developments that the country has experienced over the last year. This edition of the Bahrain Brief has been extended to present those references to Bahrain contained in Human Rights Watch's World Report along with our comments. HRW's World Report refers to both the positive and negative in Bahrain's human rights file, but unlike previous years does not allocate a specific section to Bahrain, instead the country is mentioned only in passing in the section on developments in the Middle East. All the paragraphs quoted in this edition of the Bahrain Brief can be found in the Middle East chapter of the World Report. HRW's new approach reflects an appreciation of the steps taken by the Emir, Sheikh Hamad, and, perhaps to some extent, the greater array of sources of information on Bahrain now available. Foreign based groups that oppose Bahrain's government have been used to presenting their message unchallenged, but the multiplicity of sources of information on Bahrain has helped to give a more balanced picture of the country, and this has been reflected not only in HRW's report, but in Amnesty International Annual Report 2000 and the British Foreign Office's Human Rights Report.
