Well, one regional economy that doesn't have to worry about making ends meet is Libya. Oil and gas account for more than 80% of its annual economic output and for almost all of Libya's export revenues. That means, of course, it's done very well out of the recent high oil price. But it also leaves Libya very vulnerable. Oil prices, as we well know, fluctuate sharply. So what else does the economy there have to offer? Rana Jawad reports from Tripoli.
"When Libya's security problems dominate the headlines, it's easy to overlook that its economy is actually functioning. The Libyan may have bucked the economic stagnation trend in post-Arab Spring countries chiefly because of its oil industry and exports rapidly returning to pre-war levels. There are other projects flourishing or waiting patiently for an opportunity to materialise. The recent Libya Build fair, coined by one of its organisers Harrick Blavy as the country's biggest event ever, is a good case in point. Its 2,000 square metres of exhibiting area at the sports arena overflowed with stores from 714 companies from more than two dozen countries."利比亚就无需担心它的经济入不敷出。石油和天然气产量占到了年度经济产出的80%以上，这也几乎是利比亚全部的出口收入。当然这意味着在最近高油价的行情下，利比亚确实做得很好。但这也显露了它的弱点。因为我们知道，油价极易波动。那么利比亚要生存下去还需要什么呢？拉娜·贾瓦德从的黎波里带来报道。
“在利比亚因安全问题不断活跃在各版头条时，人们很容易忽略一个事实，那就是它的经济也在运转。经济停滞一度困扰着阿拉伯之春国家，但因为利比亚的石油产业和出口迅速回升至战前水平，它可能会扭转这一趋势。还有其他的项目不断兴旺起来，或者耐心等待着实现那天的到来。最近举办的利比亚国际建筑博览会，作为该国有史以来最隆重的盛会，由其中一个组织者哈瑞克·布拉维发起，是个很好的例证。运动场上的展区有2000平方米，挤满了来自超过24个国家714个公司的商铺。”
