 Mishaal bin Abdulaziz protested more than once that he should have been crown prince since he served as both a governor and a minister and was older than some of his brothers.Mishaal's firm, Mishaal International, along with its German and Chinese partners, is the leading contender to build much of the Kingdom's new multibillion-dollar railway system.On the other hand, it is argued that he was immediately excluded from the competition for the title of crown prince by the Sudairi brothers.
