Wish you a serene day.

In the 2003 elections in Oman, both men and women received an equal chance to vote for the first time. Women obtained permission to vote for members of the Majlis al-Shura, the elected governing body of Oman, and could even run as candidates in 2012. Omani society is becoming more aware of how important the woman’s role is, in pushing the wheels of development in the country along with men.

Under the Basic Law of Oman’s government, women are entitled to the same wages and treatment as men.
