MUSCAT: Omantel, the premier telecom provider in Oman, has announced that on the occasion of the Omani National Day on November 18, it will organise a number of activities this month for the people of Oman.

Omantel has several celebrations planned, within its offices and externally, to celebrate Oman’s rich cultural heritage and independence.

Said Salim Al Shanfari, general manager, Marketing Communication and Performance said, “We are a true Omani company at heart and are excited to celebrate the spirit of Oman during this action-packed month. We have a range of offers and festivities planned for our customers and are looking forward to their participation in the celebrations.”

“Omantel celebrates this month every year and rewards its customers with an exciting range of products and services. More details on the offers and activities will be provided as the month progresses. We are pleased to invite everyone to enjoy our events throughout the period of November 16 – 18,” Al Shanfari added.

“To celebrate Oman’s 47th National Day aligned with our brand purpose to connect and enrich the world of our valued customers, Omantel will be hosting an engagement event. The key activity at the 3-day event will involve the contribution of selfies and images from the community at large and these individual images will be compiled together into a larger portrait of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said. The images will be collected from our social media platforms and at the event held in Muscat Grand Mall. The events will also entertain the audience with a series of concerts from popular Omani musicians Mohammed Al Minji and Mohammed Rafi along with other performers,” Al Shanfari concluded.

Customers can now enjoy the free National Day ringback tones free of charge for one week, which started from November 8. After the free trial, customers can enjoy the service for 400 Bz for 3 months.
