Ahmed bin Hassan al Theeb, Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry for Commerce and Industry and Chairman of the Award Jury, highlighted the importance of the Sultan Qaboos Award for Voluntary Work and its noble goal. He pointed out that the voluntary works are within the activities promoted by the government, and they highlight those in charge of them in various possible ways, and the need to honour and encourage others to give, thus the award is found.
