Is the GIA opening a lab in Bahrain?

I saw an article saying so but I couldn't follow the link- something was wrong with it. It was in Professional Jeweler, but their site is backed-up or something. So, I could be wrong, so let's have a denial or a second source.

I think this is really interesting news!

I think it is more along the lines of assistance: http://www.jewellerynewsasia.com/en/most_view/9299/Bahrain-GIA-sign-MOU-to-develop-pearl-centre.html

A great combination -- GIA and Bahrain!
