In the real estate market, the trading volume in September increased by 16% compared to the same month last year, reaching about 720.5 million dinars, while apartment sales increased by 17%, and more importantly, the value of non-Jordanian ownership during the first nine months increased by 17%, reaching about 168.3 million dinars.
Also among the important news is the start of the implementation phase of the Aqaba-Shidiyeh-Ma'an railway project, a strategic project that can enhance the transport and logistics system and connect production areas with ports and markets, thereby supporting Jordan's ability to benefit from its geographical location.
In the public spending file, the government's announced measures to rationalize the travel of officials and official delegations have contributed to saving about 3 million dinars for the treasury so far, with the expected savings reaching 4 million dinars by the end of the year, and the figure may not be large compared to the size of the budget, but it reflects the importance of rationalizing spending and enhancing the efficiency of public money management.
Of course, these numbers do not mean that all challenges are over, as Jordan still has economic, living, and employment files that need continuous solutions, but optimism does not mean ignoring difficulties, and the presence of challenges should not make us ignore the progress being made.
In conclusion, these indicators confirm that we have an economy with the resilience and opportunities worth building upon; the increase in reserves, the growth of companies and capital, the movement of investment, strategic projects, and the rationalization of spending are not just numbers, but tools that can be transformed into growth, job opportunities, and added value felt by the citizen.
