I had the privilege of living in and travelling through Oman for a couple of months last year up until Corona came about and sent me back home. Even then, in just a short period of time, Oman managed to climb its way up to the first place on my list of favourites. I will be back. Oman hasn't seen the last of me. And I certainly haven't seen the last of her.
I was in the country when Sultan Qaboos passed away. May he have found his peace. The mourning was devastating but moving at the same time. I felt the sadness in my heart of hearts. With Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said following up shortly. Domestic politics in Oman have seemed to taken a fast turn.
With all the recent talk about Omanization, I was wondering if someone could update me from a national perspective. How is the process taking shape? What are the reactions and consequences? What is your take?
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 34%. (I'm a bot)
