He prayed to Allah to perpetuate these blessings on Oman.
Then, His Majesty the Sultan reviewed matters of local concern.
His Majesty the Sultan affirmed that the Sultanate of Oman is pressing ahead with plans and programmes in various spheres. He commended the accomplishments made in 2023 which, he said, reflected positively on economic conditions and maintained the amelioration of financial performance indicators—an evidence of the government’s success in implementing development of strategies and goals of Oman Vision 2040. This paved the way for a verdant present and a future that promises sustainability for the Omani economy and prosperity for the people of Oman, His Majesty noted.
His Majesty the Sultan also lauded the positive outcome of implementing decentralization, the System of Governorate and the Municipal Council Law, besides delegating broad powers to governors and assisting them with the financial and administrative resources necessary to manage and develop their governorates.

His Majesty the Sultan expressed his personal keenness on witnessing the economic growth of Musandam due to the Governorate’s strategic location and the investment opportunities that abound there, notably in the sectors of tourism, fisheries and services. He encouraged investors, merchants and entrepreneurs to take advantage of these opportunities and promote commercial activity based on ports and other infrastructure being developed by the government. He exhorted all to set up light industries in industrial zones, noting that this would undoubtedly help enhance economic activity and generate employment opportunities for citizens in the Governorate.
His Majesty the Sultan was briefed by some ministers about development and service projects being implemented in all wilayats of the Governorate. He gave instructions to the officials in charge to complete the projects on time and in accordance with the approved programmes. His Majesty also underlined the need to generate employment opportunities for citizens from these projects.
