On the 17th of October, the nation shines in celebration of the jewel of its crown and the pillar of its future: the Omani woman. A wise path charted by the late Sultan Qaboos may his soul rest in peace and carried forward with wisdom and determination by Sultan Haitham bin Tariq may God protect and preserve him. May every year see the glorious Omani woman continue to transform challenges into achievements, and inscribe the finest meanings of dedication upon the pages of loyalty.
