MORE PELICAN DIGGING
Eldoradude! LOL! I love the money trail! Ant crumbs indeed!
I went away and found some possible crumbs for you! Time will tell if they have yeast and will grow!
AL WALID BIN TALAL
Searching for SA connection to Gulftainer/Pelican Project
Was thinking “SA” and the big players back then, whose strings to NWO Hillarypuppet were cut, were such actors as Al Walid Bin Talal.
You made that excellent suggestion to follow the money, so, since Talal had (has) a lot of money - let’s see what we turn up. He seemed as good a place as any to find a target rich environment for money/ant crumbs.
I learned of some of his investments. I also found a list of some of the people who were arrested along side of him. Both the investment entities as well as the other SA people could bring us closer to finding out if SA was indeed involved somehow in Pelican Project... not just the UAE. What would be ideal at this juncture would be to learn if he ever invested in CEMEX. We know he did invest in Disney and Fox, and Apple - but what about CEMEX? Hmmmm As I write this intro, I see another bunny hole forming in front of me!”

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-03-20/alwaleed-reveals-secret-deal-struck-to-exit-ritz-after-83-days
Excerpts:
“…In the 1980s, he went broke. In 2008, during the financial crisis, he lost billions of dollars on Citigroup Inc. …”
“…with news reports pinpointing Alwaleed as the most prominent among hundreds of tycoons, government ministers, and other princes who were being detained at the Ritz-Carlton. Shares of his main company, Kingdom Holding Co., plummeted 21 percent in three days….”
“…His fortune of $17.1 billion places him 65th on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. And his international profile—forged through friendships and business partnerships with the likes of Bill Gates and Rupert Murdoch—rivals that of Prince Mohammed. Kingdom Holding’s portfolio includes Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts, Citigroup, Euro Disney, and Twitter. Rotana Group, which he controls separately, is the Arab world’s largest entertainment company.
The government offered detainees a stark choice: pay up, sign an admission of guilt, and walk free—or refuse and languish. According to a Wall Street Journal report, the price for Alwaleed’s release was $6 billion…”
“…So were there never any charges? Were you ever accused of anything?
There were no charges. Because I have a fiduciary responsibility to my shareholders in Kingdom Holding, to my friends in Saudi Arabia, and to the world community, because we have international investments all over the place, it’s very important to say that there was zero accusation and zero guilt.
YOU DESCRIBED IT AS A MISUNDERSTANDING
When I say misunderstanding, it’s because I believe I shouldn’t have been there. Now that I’ve left, I would say that I’ve been vindicated. Yet I have to acknowledge to you, for the first time, that yes, we do have with the government a confirmed understanding, going forward.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
It is very confidential. I cannot get into that. But there is a confirmed understanding between the kingdom of Saudi Arabia and me personally….”
[Editorial:]
…”Prince Mohammed’s plans include Vision 2030, an economic program that may see Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil company, go public. Movie theaters, banned since the early 1980s, are back, and in parts of Riyadh women walk without an abaya covering their heads. Starting in June, they’ll be permitted to drive for the first time since 1990….”

The crown prince has also become the biggest Saudi investor, plowing tens of billions of state dollars into Uber Technologies Inc. and funds run by Blackstone Group and SoftBank Group”…

Excerpts:
“…Alwaleed bin Talal, who has degrees from Menlo College and Syracuse University, controls the Saudi-listed investment firm Kingdom Holding, which owns stakes in Citigroup, Twitter and many other companies. Through Kingdom Holding, he also owns the George V hotel in Paris, has a stake in the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan and controls satellite television networks in Arab countries. Alwaleed owns 95% of Kingdom Holding. The 62-year-old prince has a net worth $18.7 billion, according to Forbes estimates….”
“…Also reportedly arrested: 76-year-old Saudi billionaire Saleh Kamel (net worth: $2.2 billion) and his sons. A representative for Kamel could not be reached for comment. …”

[Business interests to look into]
http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-ct-saudi-alwaleed-release-20180127-story.html
Excerpts:
“..Through Kingdom, Alwaleed has built up a diverse portfolio, ranging from high-end hotels such as the Savoy in London and the Plaza in New York to Lyft and Apple.
Alwaleed has also had a long relationship with Disney, dating to 1994, when the prince agreed to buy about $300 million in newly issued Euro Disney stock. That deal helped restructure the debt of the then-flailing Euro Disney theme park.
Just last year, Alwaleed agreed to exchange nearly all of Kingdom’s Euro Disney shares for Walt Disney Co. shares, allowing Disney to take full control of the Paris theme park during a time when the Burbank entertainment giant sought to delist Euro Disney from the Euronext stock exchange. Kingdom retains a 1% stake in Euro Disney.
Alwaleed also has been a longtime ally of Rupert Murdoch but recently sold his stake in Murdoch’s 21st Century Fox. He previously owned about 5% of Fox….”
“…Alwaleed has always said his fortune, now estimated at $17.8 billion by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, was self-made. In 1991 he catapulted into the financial limelight by reviving a then-floundering Citibank with almost $600 million of fresh capital. Other notable investments over the years included Motorola Inc., Time Warner Inc. and, more recently, Twitter Inc. and Lyft Inc.
Much of Alwaleed’s wealth is in Kingdom Holding Co., the investment company he took public in 2007 and still controls with a 95 percent stake. Those shares have dropped almost 21 percent since his arrest, cutting his wealth by at least $1.3 billion. The rest of his fortune is in a variety of assets, such as jewelry, media companies and real estate…”
“…When I last saw Alwaleed in the desert, he showed me a book he was reading: “Why We Sleep,” by the neuroscientist and Berkeley professor Matthew Walker. I told him it was something I too planned to read …”

HRH Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed bin Talal: Forging A KBW Investments Framework
by
Fida Chaaban
GUEST WRITER
Chief Communications Officer, KBW Investments
Excerpts:
“…Director General of Abu Jenna’s private office, Mustafa Al Ansari, and the aforementioned Alkhosaibi both have expressions of sheer incredulity (and sometimes amusement) during the course of my two-and-half-hour conversation with the Prince. At some point, Al Ansari laughingly tells me that I’m “really pushing it.” The result? An honest and surprising discourse with one of the most private royals in the MENA region. Before I ask you to move past his Princehood, I have one (hilarious) royal-related factoid to share.
“…Abu Jenna is a partner in TechnoBuffalo.com, a technology enthusiast website. In 2009, Abu Jenna emailed TechnoBuffalo.com founder Jon Rettinger explaining that he wanted to invest in the Internet startup as a passion project because he “really liked what they were doing.” According to a vlog post by Rettinger, he then “Googled Khaled Alwaleed” and found him to be “a Prince in Saudi Arabia!” Once Rettinger confirmed that this was indeed the Khaled Alwaleed, things moved quickly. Abu Jenna laughs as I comment that this story is very similar to the emails I get from a “Nigerian Prince” who wants to transfer me €40 million as part of some far-fetched inheritance payout…”
“…HRH Alwaleed bin Talal’s tech investment methodology “favors high-growth, high-risk technology companies, which he identifies with the help of a small Riyadh-based investment committee.” The Prince says that while the latter is true, the “high-risk” factor isn’t, and points out that HRH Alwaleed bin Talal’s investments are usually astronomical sums in huge companies, not the startup sort the statement suggests. “My father has given me a lot of advice throughout my business career- …”
