From Our Own Correspondent Thursday, 22 September 2005, 15:09 GMT 16:09 UK Country profile: Qatar The State of Qatar has developed from being one of the poorest Gulf states, with its income based on pearl fishing, to become one of the richest, thanks to the exploitation of large oil and gas fields since the 1940s. Today its people have one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. Dominated by the Al Thani family for almost 150 years, the mainly barren country was a British protectorate until 1971, when it declared its independence after following suit with Bahrain and refusing to join the United Arab Emirates. In 1995 Crown Prince Hamad Bin Khalifa deposed his father to become emir, since when he has brought in several liberal reforms. Press freedoms have been extended and the Qatari satellite TV station Al Jazeera has become one of the most important broadcasters in the Arab world. In 1999 the country's first elections - for a 29-member municipal council - were held in which women were allowed to vote and stand for office. A constitution, providing for democratic reforms, came into force in 2005. On its heels, voting for a partially-elected legislative body is expected to take place by 2007.

The discovery of oil in Qatar in 1939, and its commercial exportation which began in 1949, were turning points in Qatar's development, heralding a new era of accelerated progress in a wide range of fields, including administration, infrastructure and the economy, together with associated improvements in the social and cultural arenas. This new oil-age helped to transform Qatar's economy from its reliance on traditional marine oriented activities such as pearling and fishing, together with some small scale farming into a modern and much more diversified industrial economy. The flow of oil revenues created a more affluent society and one in which rapid increases in living standards, education and health care services was possible. Along with this came a significant population increase, from an estimated 30,000 in the 1950's to, according to recent census figures, more than half a million people today. Throughout this period of rapid growth, which commenced in the late 1950s, Qatar has made great strides towards establishing its modern status and independent character. The country's impressive modernisation programme is continuing under its present leader, HH Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, who has expressed a special interest in consolidating the valuable steps that have already been taken within the framework of its Arab and Islamic identity. Plans are now in place to build a modern, strong and promising state which can continue to play a worthwhile role, regionally, within the Arab world as a whole, and within the global environment.

The Economic Development The economic policy of Qatar is based on diversification of national income resources through expansion of industrial and agricultural production, in combination with development of human resources. It also aims to provide a larger role to the private sector. A key objective is to achieve a surplus in the balance of payments through increasing exports and tightening budgetary control through implementation of essential reforms in financial policy. To this end, several joint stock companies have been established such as the Qatar Manufacturing Company with a capital of QR 400 million and the Qatari Water and Electricity Company at QR 1 billion. Incentives have also been offered to the private sector in order to encourage investment in industrial projects. Several laws have been passed in connection with this programme, including Law 25 of 1990 which deals with organisation of foreign capital investment in economic activity, and Law 11 of 1992 regarding income tax. So far as the hydrocarbon industries are concerned, Qatar has been able to maintain its oil production capacity, and oil production and exports have continued at levels which meet the country's financial requirements and development needs. Particular attention is also paid to agricultural projects which aim at securing self sufficiency. The Qatar government has provided strong support to farmers and has encouraged local capital investment in this sector. The number of registered farms has recently risen to 1131, with 891 active farms, while the overall agricultural area has reached 285,018 donum. Significant agricultural developments include the Mushabiyah Date Palm Project, the Qatari Arab Company for Vegetable Production, the Qatari Arab Company for Poultry Production and the diary and sheep project in Abu Samrah area.
