Saudi Arabia: Abdullah Bin Musaid, Olympic committee

Prince Abdullah Bin Musaid Bin Abdelaziz was unanimously elected chairman of the Saudi Arabian Olympic General Assembly on 16 July. The prince, who was named head of the General Presidency of Youth Welfare in late June, was unopposed for the role recently vacated by Prince Nawaf Bin Faisal, whom he also replaced at Youth Welfare. He will now hold the position until at least 2016. Abdullah Bin Musaid was born in 1965, and is a prominent businessman.
