MUSCAT : This initiative aims to enhance interaction and communication between the government and society, and voting will remain open until October 23.

Participants can contribute to the selection process by accessing the electronic questionnaire via the following link: https://2u.pw/QfKI6iDd, which has been disseminated through various media outlets and social media platforms.

The questionnaire outlines three main areas for public consideration. The first focuses on ‘Economy and Development’, covering topics such as the upcoming eleventh five-year plan, economic diversification efforts, local content, and entrepreneurship. The second, titled ‘Private Sector and Investment’, addresses subjects including the role of the private sector in creating job opportunities, investment in future technologies and artificial intelligence, and the Oman Investment Authority’s initiatives in promoting local and foreign investments. The third pertains to ‘Governorate Development’, encompassing discussions on the local economy, sustainable cities, and urban planning.

To foster inclusivity, citizens are encouraged to suggest topics outside of those specified in the questionnaire. The topic receiving the highest number of votes will be considered for discussion at the forum.

The ‘Together We Advance’ Forum serves as a vital platform to strengthen communication between society and decision-makers. It facilitates direct meetings and open dialogues, allowing participants to learn about development policies, programs, and government initiatives while expressing their opinions and sharing ideas in a collaborative environment.
