ON THE PATH TO GROWTH

Today, the Sultanate celebrates the 48th Blessed Renaissance, marking the beginning of a new era in Oman’s history. This is the day when the people of Oman renew their pledge to maintain allegiance and loyalty to His Majesty Sultan Qaboos, who made this country an oasis of peace, security and welfare.

Since His Majesty ascended the throne 48 years ago, there has been a special and deep relation between the leader and his subjects. For him, the citizen has been the most precious wealth in the country.

Accordingly, the focus has been on development of human resources.

The Government of Oman accords great emphasis on social development with special focus on generating jobs and training opportunities, diversifying sources of income, encouraging investments in productive projects and promoting SMES in the growth of the national economy.

Improving the citizens’ standard of living continues to remain top priority in Oman’s budgetary spending.

So, the government always ensures that importance is given to social welfare measures.

Today, the people of Oman enjoy all facilities, including health, education, road, electricity, water and communication services.

Upon ascending the throne in 1970, His Majesty embarked on a mission of transforming and reinvigorating the education sector in the country. His commitment to improving the “human individual” found outlet in numerous education investments.
