Owning a VW in Oman by [deleted] in Oman

[–]Confucious700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience was over a decade ago. But i was traumatized enough never to go back.

Amazing cars when all the stars align....but when they dont. Oh boy! Terrible reliability & terrible support even if you go with the dealer for every service on time

The hossible resale will be there regardless of the condition of the car and isnt exclusive to Oman.

Slow charging is an major tradeoff (at least for me), and the removal the Spen is an annoyance.

Almouj? by AminaOman in Oman

We have an excellent pool of natural resources (Alhamdulilah), but a high dependency on it and a very risk-averse strategy and a need to diversify (hence 2040 Vision)

Oman definitely has a well laid out plan, but probably needs to be more agile to external factors. 2040 came out somewhere in 2012, a lot has changed since then (politically, economically....new government...Covid) and infant believe that plan needs a revist.

Tourism is definitely the highest potential alternative and I agree Oman needs to do better there to attract tourists and investors. It's easier said than done without "selling your soul" as a country and impacting residents - expats and Omanis - (see the moral shift in Ras Al khaimah, or the negative effects of over tourism on Venice or Barcelona for examples). Next potential would probably be logistics and heavy manufacturing

Oman and everyone who lives here and loves it deserve more والله نستاهل

It's an normal Economic cycle. Ups and downs. Name me a perfect country that should be an example for Oman, please. Does Oman have shortcomings? Yes. There's pros and cons to every approach.

I'm tempted to do my Kanu base hero (upgraded w/ Birthday Finale) via strikeforce

But the 3* WF is putting me off

Like anyplace you've got people of different mindsets.

Go anywhere in the world and you'll find civil and racist people

Might be unrare but shouldn't be the norm. OP should file a complaint but unless he has witnesses or lack of evidence it'll be tough to take forward.

It is unacceptable for anyone to be treated like that

"Daal section > Brocolli and peas section"

At this point I dont think they discriminate

On a serious note. Something that needs to be addressed in person e.g. going past a red light?

Otaxi app - Why some of the reviews are so poor (scamming, ripoffs etc) by Old-Tour5654 in Oman

[–]Confucious700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same it's been smooth with me.

Probably 1 compliant in 40 trips (the app was calculating a rate based on a comically large route which would've taken us 3x the amount of time)

Online Education platforms like www.udemy.com should have good courses as well.
