Oman, this land, has offered so much to its sons on the hopes that the day will come when these young minds work together to build this land’s present and future. These aspiring souls are still alive and fueling on the far-reaching Omani history using the same limited but determined hands to secure their daily needs. These hands were put together to plow lands and channel water through steep mountains in order to spread life. The same hands grew palm trees to provide food and altered their wasted parts into daily used tools. The same hands went on and built entire homes out of clay and palm tree branches establishing a system of self-sufficiency for hundreds of years.

And driven by the desire to communicate with the world around him, the Omani citizen made his boat out of branches, drove it into water and harnessed the sea wonders. He stood on the ocean’s shore aspiring to communicate with the worlds’ civilizations to exchange human’s experience. This is what the Omani has always been characterized with, a determination that knows no boredom, and relentless endeavor.Hope is now in your hands dear graduates. It is our hope that you recognize the size of the responsibility placed in your hands and carry on the legacy that led us here.
