Sayyid Hamoud bin Faisal al Busaidy, Minister of Interior, affirmed the keenness and attention accorded by His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik to the Shura march and his profound belief in citizens’ participation in the nation-building process and their contribution to the legislative developments which will lead to the realisation of the objectives set for the Council of Oman.
He praised the unprecedented development and modernisation the electoral process has witnessed in the Sultanate of Oman that resulted in the simplification of the election procedures and processes.
