@@rick-be Good: Good quality of life. Good economy, plenty of subsidies. Very cheap oil and water prices. Stable country. Friendly people (in general, although some might be prejudiced). Not many taxes as an expat (you won't feel like getting ripped off just like anywhere else as an expat). Great scenery and outdoors. Lots of culture mixed in (highly expat-central country) so everyone speaks English except for some folks of the interior, but mostly all can speak a conversational level English. (Almost) non-existent crime. Strong national currency. Bad: A bit more than normal (expensive) groceries except water, milk, and bread. Virtually non-existent public transport (you have to have your own car to get anywhere). While it has great scenery it loses in entertainment and city life compared to its neighbours Dubai and Abu Dhabi. As a result of being a highly expat central country for decades they have made it harder for new expats to come. Hard to get driver licenses (you'll probably fail the first times and then try again).

Compared to the other GCC countries, Oman is still very slow and calm whereas other GCC countries like Qatar and UAE are miles ahead but still the peace and hospitality you will find in Oman is something you just cannot find in other GCC countries. His Majesty Sultan Qaboos was a legendary man. Under his reign, Oman boomed SO MUCH and he played a very important role in maintaining not just peace within the GCC but around the world.

They Witnessed The First Human Period Rain, Which Becomes The Zam Zam [Named By Hagar In Egyptian - Stop Flowing] Well. Then God Sends An Asteroid From The Heavens, Which Lands, Which Is Later Placed On The Corner Of The Kaaba [First Temple]. The Kaaba Akin To King Solomon's Temple, As Been Destroyed And Rebuilt. Indian Hindu's also put a red dot, on their heads, to connect to the Kaaba, All Lost Knowledge, From Time. All The Prophets Of God, Went To Becca [Now Mecca] For The Hajj [Pilgrimage] Adam & Eve Built The First Temple There, With Witnessing The First Rain From The Heavens. Akin To King & Prophet Solomon's Temple, It Has Been Destroyed And Rebuilt. It Was Destroyed After The Flood Of Noah, Then Abraham Rebuilt It, With His Second Wife Hajar, Whom Founded The First Spring Again, After It Was Lost In Time [Called Zam Zam - Egyptian For Stop Flowing]. Psalms 84 [Books Of David]: Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage [Hajj]. As they pass through the Valley of Baca [Now Mecca], they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools. They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God.. Quran [Last Testament]: 95. Say: "(God) speaketh the Truth: follow the religion of Abraham, the same in faith; he was not of the Pagans." 96. The first House (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakka [Now Mecca]: Full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings: 97. In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to God,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, God stands not in need of any of His creatures. The Word Tefillin Derives From Tawaf, Circumambulation Around The Kaaba. Adam & Eve Were Sent Down Separately, They Both Meet Up In The Valley Of Becca [Now Mecca]. Whenever A Scripture Becomes Corrupted, Then God Almighty Sends A Update [Similar To Windows Or Apple IOS].

Are you just saying this because criticism of the Sultan is illegal? The restrictions on freedom of expression and laws against Blasphemy are archaic. "The Penal Code weights the evidence of woman just the half of the evidence of a man, according to Islamic law. The family law discriminates women in divorce, child custody, inheritance and legal guardianship. Men are legally considered to be the heads of the households (Article 38 of the Personal Status Law). After a divorce, men receive the right of child custody. Female heirs inherit generally half as much as male heirs, in accordance with Islamic law. Muslim men are allowed to marry Muslim, Jewish or Christian women, women are only allowed to marry non-Muslim men if they convert to Islam." "It is illegal to advocate secularism or church-state separation, or such advocacy is suppressed It is illegal or unrecognised to identify as an atheist or as non-religious." "It is illegal to register an explicitly Humanist, atheist, secularist or other non-religious NGO or other human rights organization, or such groups are persecuted by authorities!"

my grandfather was one of the first foreigners to go to Oman right after Sultan Qaboos came into power. they had to bring all their own machinery and basically beached the enormous freighter and had to offload by hand, first small cranes then use those for bigger machinery etc. They had to build their own roads and compound before they could even start with any sort of oil industry. My father and our family got posted there in the late 90s and when my grandfather visited us he couldnt believe his eyes. The only things he recognized were the ancient walls around the port of Muscat. i ended up growing up in Oman until the mid 2000s. It was an amazing place, super friendly people, beautiful landscapes etc The Sultan was very popular, may he rest in peace. and his chosen successor seems to be doing a good job continuing the policies. The people have developed a culture of tolerance and neutrality. there are ofc still massive issues with the treatment of low skilled guest workers, but thats not unique to Oman

The late Sultan was definitely partially responsible, but the fact that Oman has been an ally to the West since the mid-1800's has also played a great part in their prosperity. Oman is an example of how Western secularism and Muslim fundamentalism can be balanced and used to bring progress to the region. The ideals and values espoused by Islam need not be at odds with secular life. Much of the region would do well to emulate Oman.

To say that a country needs to exist without external influences is like saying that a person needs to exist without being influenced by anyone else in the world. It's unrealistic. As long as there are people around you they'll always try to influence you one way or the other. Sometimes they do it to further their own agenda, sometimes they do it thinking it's for your own good, sometimes they do it because they feel their own survival depends on it. Either way, no country can be free of external influence because countries are ultimately made up of people. And people will always have an agenda. A country's success or failure depends on its ability to further its own agenda without getting derailed by those of others. That's also true of individuals.

When my father was alive he was probably America's top expert on Oman. There were only two other competitors but he deserved it. He loved exploring their caves and took many photos of their mountains. He wrote a tour book, met the sultan one and a half times, had ambassadors call him with questions. He discovered a geologic formation akin to New Hampshire's late Old Man of the Mountain and dubbed it Old Man of Oman. He was in the process of giving tours to Hollywood set location scouts and he worked with the Omani government to promote tourism too. Then a thing happened about 20 something years ago and nobody wanted to go to the middle east on vacation, ruining my dad's dreams. He said both on 9/10 and 9/12 the Omani didn't care to promote themselves. They were great. They knew they were great. They figured they didn't need to shout about how great they were. They thought people would just naturally want to come see their prosperous, happy, beautiful, peaceful nation. Talking about Oman isn't like talking about most minor countries that nobody can seem to find on a map. When i told people my dad was an expert on Oman they didn't say "where's that." They would say " what's that." Oman is a country so obscure people don't even know it's a country.

SALaM, SHLAMa, SHLOMo, SHALoM, NAMASTe, PEACe. The Star of David, Crucifix & The Crescent, Are Found In Hinduism. Vedas [Hindu Bible] Mentions Adam, Abraham, Moses, Noah & Muhammad, Within Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Hinduism. Adam Was Swayambhu Manu (4000BC), Cain Was Indra (3200BC), Noah Was Vaivaswat Manu (3000BC), Abraham Was Rama (2100BC) Moses Was Krishna (1500BC), Mahamada Was Muhammad. Origins in the Indus Valley. Hinduism Vedas = Monotheism Guru Books = Trinity & Polytheism. Hinduism Was The Largest Monotheistic Religion In Ancient Times, But When They Added The Trinity And Polytheism, The Religion Declined. The Holy Kaaba was recorded by the Greek historian Diodorus Siculus before Christ Era. In John (4:21-24) Jesus Christ also told that woman that neither at Jerusalem nor in its mountain God will be worshipped, why? CLEARLY, THE PLACE & DIRECTION OF WORSHIP WOULD BE CHANGED TO THE FINAL TEMPLE SINCE THE HOUR IS ABOUT TO COME!. Because God is Spiri*t, therefore, the *true worshippers would worship HIM as spirit & not as God Incarnate in human form. The Kaaba, a black cubical building at the center of the Grand Mosque of Mecca; it is the most sacred site in Islam. The Jewish Tefillin [Prayer Leather Box] With The Seven Straps Around The Arms, Relates To The Seven Circumambulation Around The Kaaba. They Witnessed The First Human Period Rain, Which Becomes The Zam Zam [Named By Hagar In Egyptian - Stop Flowing] Well. Then God Sends An Asteroid From The Heavens, Which Lands, Which Is Later Placed On The Corner Of The Kaaba [First Temple]. The Kaaba Akin To King Solomon's Temple, As Been Destroyed And Rebuilt. Indian Hindu's also put a red dot, on their heads, to connect to the Kaaba, All Lost Knowledge, From Time. All The Prophets Of God, Went To Becca [Now Mecca] For The Hajj [Pilgrimage] Adam & Eve Built The First Temple There, With Witnessing The First Rain From The Heavens. Akin To King & Prophet Solomon's Temple, It Has Been Destroyed And Rebuilt. It Was Destroyed After The Flood Of Noah, Then Abraham Rebuilt It, With His Second Wife Hajar, Whom Founded The First Spring Again, After It Was Lost In Time [Called Zam Zam - Egyptian For Stop Flowing]. Psalms 84 [Books Of David]: Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage [Hajj]. As they pass through the Valley of Baca [Now Mecca], they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools. They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God.. Quran [Last Testament]: 95. Say: "(God) speaketh the Truth: follow the religion of Abraham, the same in faith; he was not of the Pagans." 96. The first House (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakka [Now Mecca]: Full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings: 97. In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to God,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, God stands not in need of any of His creatures. The Word Tefillin Derives From Tawaf, Circumambulation Around The Kaaba. Adam & Eve Were Sent Down Separately, They Both Meet Up In The Valley Of Becca [Now Mecca]. Whenever A Scripture Becomes Corrupted, Then God Almighty Sends A Update [Similar To Windows Or Apple IOS].

@@deadaeninixxx I hate to say this, for fear of sounding like a jerk, but I've been to Indonesia. As a man of mixed race, I personally experienced racism from Indonesians, while there. My experience in Indonesia was markedly different than that of my white colleagues, with whom I was sharing the trip. The clashed between your people and the Yemenis in Indonesia may be due to cultural differences and the fact that Yemenis, like most Arabs, don't take kindly to being disrespected. There seems to be an inherent bias in many Asian nations, favoring people with light skin tones, whilst shunning those with darker complexions. I would hazard the guess that the dismissive treatment I received in Indonesia is not too dissimilar to how Yemenis are welcomed there.

I gotta qualify this. I'm someone who hates ads so much that I get angry whenever anyone brings them up, be it sponsors or plugging their own videos. I immediately skip them as soon as I smell the ad, which usually happens before they drop the name. However for this video, you integrated it into the content so well that I didn't notice up until I was already interested in the "plot" of the ad, so I actually watched it till 41:45 when it turned into a canned ad. What I watched was infinitely more effective in making me consider the service than the canned ad, which I didn't even give a chance. I hope they pay you and other people skilled enough to do this more for doing it, b/c it is effective and far less irritating.

I did a report on Oman in Eighth Grade. I don't remember much of what I wrote by the details, but thinking back, I remember feeling like it was an unremarkable country with pretty buildings. Now, I know it's a perfectly functional country, and it being unremarkable is a built-in feature.

The most important reason is the religious tolerance of Oman, the peace-loving people of Oman in addition to brilliant and peace-loving leaders. I am an Indian who lived there for 25 years.

What a great Segway into the advertisement for those of us who stayed till the end. But honestly, that really really makes me want to use ground news.

20:01 foreign workers in Saudi Arabia were required to have a sponsor to be able to work in the country ,but Yemeni citizens were exempt from that requirement in compliance with the 1934 treaty of Taif . after the government of Yemen supported Saddam's invasion of Kuwait , the Saudi government as a retaliation , imposed the sponsorship requirement. so those who were not willing or able to get a sponsorship had to leave the country .
