Timeline
Khalid bin Faisal Al Saud (خالد بن فيصل ال سعود Khālid bin Fayṣal Āl Suʿūd; born 24 February 1940) is a Saudi Arabian politician, artist, and poet who is the governor of Makkah Province, in office from 2007 to 2013 and again since 2015.
Prince Khalid was born in Makkah on 24 February 1940.
He is the third son of King Faisal.
His mother is Haya bint Turki bin Abdulaziz Al Turki.
Prince Khalid's full siblings are Prince Saad and Princess Noura.
In 1948, Prince Khalid attended Model School in Taif to receive secondary education.
Like King Faisal's other children, Prince Khalid was educated abroad after completing secondary education in Saudi Arabia.
He attended the Hun School of Princeton in New Jersey and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political economy from the University of Oxford in 1966.
After returning to Saudi Arabia, Prince Khalid served as director general of the Presidency of Youth Welfare in the ministry of Labour and Social Affairs in 1967.
He was also the governor of Asir Province from 1971 to 2007.
He served as the adviser to King Salman.
His term lasted until April 1971 when he was appointed as governor of Asir Province, replacing Fahd bin Saad in the post.
At the end of the 1990s and the beginning of the 2000s, he sought to use its natural beauty and cool climate to attract Arab tourists.
But many inhabitants were resentful that the oil-based welfare state had not provided for them.
As governor, Prince Khalid held majlis, an open-house meeting with citizens, twice a day.
The region also had its first telephone line under his governorship.
According to a leaked diplomatic cable, Prince Khalid went to extraordinary lengths to renovate his late father's palace to host a party for Prince Charles during his 2006 visit.
The cable revealed that at the time Khalid had been living in the old palace which was in dire need of renovation.
He directed a Western business associate to renovate the palace in three weeks and rewarded the businessman with $13,000 when Prince Charles was impressed.
Khalid then built a new palace while the old palace was converted into a university.
Khalid was governor of the province until 2007.
He was credited with bringing the province a measure of modernity and prosperity.
On 16 May 2007, Khalid was appointed governor of Makkah Province by King Abdullah, replacing Prince Abdul Majeed bin Abdulaziz who died in office.
The province includes the Muslim holy city of Makkah and the second largest city in Saudi Arabia, Jeddah.
In 2010, he ordered hotels, restaurants, shops and wedding halls in the province to drop all their non-Arabic names and use Arabic only for signboards.
As governor, he played a major role in managing the annual Hajj in Makkah.
In 2010 Prince Khalid was mentioned as a future king when succession in the Al Saud passes on to the grandsons of King Abdulaziz.
He was also considered to be among the possible contenders after Prince Nayef's death in June 2012.
However, the other sons of King Faisal, Turki bin Faisal and Saud bin Faisal, were said to be regarded unfavourably within the royal family due to their perceived air of intellectual superiority.
On the other hand, Prince Khalid might have advantages over brothers as a result of his long-term tenure as governor in that he is well known to the public.
Khalid Al Faisal criticized the negative coverage of Saudi Arabia by the Western media.
