The Tourism Ministry Office in Marib has launched a program for re-qualifying tourist facilities in the province in offering standard tourist services.

Inaugurating the program in an event in Bilqees Hotel in the city, the deputy governor Abdullah al-Babakry affirmed the importance of reviving local tourism.

"Marib's tourist and investment potentials are promising and banked on to be an important economic source of revenue," he said.
