We have always emphasised
the importance of learning
and knowledge and we have
always been open to the
adoption of new development
in this field .
Information technology and
communication have now
become the main element that
move forward the development
process in this third
millennium; therefore, we
have accorded our attention
to finding a national
strategy to develop the
skills and abilities of
citizens in this domain with
the aim of further
developing e-government
services. We are closely
following the important
steps that we have made in
this regard. We call upon
all government institutions
to speedily enhance their
performance, and to
facilitate their services by
applying digital technology
in order to usher the
Sultanate into the
constantly evolving spheres
for applying knowledge .
