Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tarik has ordered the creation of 32,000 jobs this year to appease protesters demanding more employment opportunities.
Several hundred unemployed young Omanis in the northwest industrial city of Sohar and in the southern resort of Salalah started protesting on Sunday, with pictures and videos of the demonstrations posted on social media.
We are very grateful for Sultan Haitham to announce the new jobs and may God bless him. I have been looking for a job for more than a year now
Yasser, 25
The protests, which have taken place for three consecutive days, were also reported in other towns including Rostaq, Nizwa and Sur.
