Last update: 11 hours ago

Retail & Tourism: Jollibee officially opened a flagship outlet at Bahrain City Centre, bringing its Chickenjoy, Jolly Spaghetti and Peach Mango Pie to one of Manama’s highest-footfall hubs, with senior group executives and the Philippines’ ambassador among the guests. Maritime Security & Trade: Bahrain and Greece used high-level meetings in Athens to stress freedom of navigation and secure sea lanes, including the Strait of Hormuz and Bab Al Mandab, with both sides calling for arrangements to follow international law. Cruise Growth: Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority joined Seatrade Cruise Med 2026 in Spain under a “Cruise Arabia” pavilion to court cruise lines and build Bahrain’s presence on regional itineraries. Banking & Youth: NBB wrapped up its EVOLVE summer internship programme, training students across schools and universities with modules spanning AI, fintech, cybersecurity and entrepreneurship. Talent & Skills: Chery Bahrain highlighted Bahraini winners at the 2nd Chery International Skills Contest, with top performers set to represent Bahrain in China. Policy & Tax: MPs will debate a VAT zero-rating proposal for social care services supplied to charities, clubs and youth/sports bodies, despite government concerns about revenue impact. Regional Energy Context: CENTCOM said over 1 billion barrels have cleared Hormuz in two months with support for more than 2,000 commercial transits, underscoring the ongoing Gulf shipping risk backdrop.
