Ali Abdolalizadeh, the President's representative in coordinating the implementation of the general policies for sea-oriented development, elaborated on the importance of formulating a comprehensive plan to achieve these policies at the conference "Challenges of Governance, Legislation, and Executive Implementation of General Policies for Sea-Oriented Development." He emphasized that a comprehensive plan differs from the five-year development plan, noting that this is essential for defining the responsibilities of various agencies.
The necessity of planning and legal reforms
Abdolalizadeh stated that many agencies objected to the formulation of a comprehensive plan, considering it contrary to the law. However, the President's representative stressed that after the approval of this plan, reforming the laws related to the agencies will be essential. He also referred to the capacities of the Sea of Oman and the Makran region, saying: "The martyr leader of the revolution called the Sea of Oman and Makran a hidden treasure."

Challenges of developing Makran
He stated that tourism and shipping industries are important capacities of the Sea of Oman, emphasizing that the development of Makran must be carried out carefully. Abdolalizadeh asserted: "If we make a mistake in the development of Makran, it will not be possible to compensate for it." He referred to the development plans for Makran, stating that none of these plans included a large port.
Abdolalizadeh, by hiring a foreign consultant to examine the capacities of the Makran region, announced that this consultant needs two ports; one port with a capacity of 500 million tons in Jask and another cargo port in Gwadar. Additionally, a container port with a capacity of one billion tons should be constructed in Chabahar.
Environmental protection in the development of Makran
Abdolalizadeh also emphasized the importance of environmental protection, stating: "The nature of this region should be transformed into a tourist area, and no harm should be done to its natural environment." He called for geological and climatic studies in Makran and noted that this region still has unknown capacities.
In conclusion, the President's representative emphasized that a 30-year strategy must be defined for the development of Makran, and global consultants' experiences should be utilized. He also stressed the necessity of training local human resources to accompany the development of Makran, stating that we are in the process of establishing technical and vocational centers and art schools.
