Speaking at the Together We Progress Forum's session on culture, sports, and youth, he said that work is in progress to prepare an innovative industries map.
HH Sayyid Theyazin said that despite the financial challenges facing Oman, "We have reevaluated the priorities and working on some amendments."
As for the new integrated sports city in Musannah, HH Sayyid Theyazin said, "We have hired a British company with a high international reputation that has provided us with some models, which will be revealed after we make a decision. The location of the sports city will be in Mussanah, near one of the resorts."

Bausher Sports Complex
The restoration of the Sultan Qaboos Bawshar Sports Complex is an essential issue and we are working on plans.
Privatization of clubs
Work is underway to study the privatization of clubs, and the plan is to start with four clubs with the help of major companies. They are in the process of completing a study.
The project will start by setting some standards to improve their performance and focus on one activity to give them more attention and care.
