Yemen has a functioning government created through open and democratically based elections, albeit not without some criticism, which have produced a President and Prime Minister led government. Political unrest has been a theme in recent years of Yemen and recently the Prime Minister resigned over an apparent inability to deal with ethnic and factional violence and demonstrations. As the political climate stabilises, focus will again turn to economic growth and the opportunities associated with the Oil and Gas industry will again manifest themselves. The security situation is stable enough to provide an operating environment for commercial entities however significant care must be taken and SAKOM is well positioned to provide such care to current and prospective clients.

Our in country management team has been operating in Yemen for three years based in Sana’a and is one of the most experienced in country security teams with this constant presence.
