I want to congratulate every Omani woman on this amazing day and thank her for her efforts to build our beloved country. I would also like to ask her is what is the fear she has managed to overcome in this one year.

Time flies fast so it is always good to reflect on what you have done and to congratulate yourself on your efforts. Women usually forget to do that and I think when we reflect and look back, it helps us realise what has been accomplished in a year and where we are going from here. A national day for women is an amazing gift that has been given to all of us Omanis. But we need to use it wisely. We must think of new and creative ideas to give back to our country in every way. I know that each one of us has put in a lot of efforts for our beloved country and this is the time to pat your back for the good work done.

We are now going through a lot of changes and I think as women we help maintain a balance in society. Also, as women it is important that we work side-by-side with the men of this country to build our beloved country together.
