The Omani citizen has been the focus of all the national development efforts, plans and programmes for the past 49 years.
With the participation of the Omani citizen, the country’s human and material resources have been mobilised in all fields of education, health, social care, training and culture.
Over the past 49 years, the determination and strong will of Sultan Qaboos with the support, solidarity, loyalty and efforts of his people led the country to remarkable fruitful achievements in all fields.
Since the beginning of the blessed renaissance, the Omani citizen’s participation in development and decision-making has been at the forefront of Sultan Qaboos’s priorities.
He has ensured that Oman has its own experience in the field of Shura, democratic work and citizen participation in national decision-making, which strengthened the development process, contributed to the establishment of a state of institutions and law, and strengthened the values of partnership and the multiplicity of opinions in the context of ensuring the achievement of national interest.
