Blog Review: Driver's License In Oman

I don't do much of these reviews but I only do so when the Blog is related to Oman and different. What I mean by different is, that it is a blog on a specific aspect of the country that is not discussed much on other Blog. The correct terminology to that is "niche".

One of my past review was on the Omani Cuisine Blog which you may read by clicking here. And as the name suggests, it is a Blog that is specifically made to cover the restaurant atmosphere in Oman with visits and reviews.

In today's review of mine, I am going to talk about a Blog that covers a topic very dear to my heart. A topic that, I think, deserves more attention from the government and something that needs to be worked on. This Blog covers the topic of the driver's license in Oman.
One thing before I continue, the Blog is in Arabic so, if you can read Arabic then you are at luck but if not, then try using a good translation program because the Blog is worth reading and following.

Now back to the review, this topic has been making a lot of noise in the media lately and I've spoken about it in a number of occasions. The rules regarding them are very vague and unclear and so, it is being handled very unfairly.

So this Blog comes in the picture and talks about the unfairness and the latest updates happening in that department. And since the pose between each test and the other is always changing, this Blog will help you stay up to date on that.

The Blog's name is (رخصة القيادة في عمان) which means: Driver's license in Oman and the author of the Blog is Abdullah Bader who currently works in real estate.
Abdullah was inspired to start his Blog by the unfairness that he have seen his family and friends go through.
The situation is very bad and thinking of it, i said more exposure will lead to awareness that eventually will change it to the better. I hope; said Abdullah.

Abdullah also explains that the source of his information is through friends and relatives who have been in the situation, the website of R.O.P, Blogs, some forums and the local media. And he plans to maintain his Blog by being in contact with some trainers and trainees that he knows.

In my opinion, this is great. I like to see more specified Blogs that are related to Oman. It really helps fix current problems and raise the name of our country.
All in all, his Blog is great and I hope he continues doing what he does. I will definitely be supporting him in any way possible until this license situation is, one day, fixed.

James Noble Knives Ltd

Want to run your own business? This could be your chance to get a slice of the action.

British business man, Tim Noble, is looking for an entrepreneurial young person in the Gulf region to build their own business using his already tried and tested products and marketing techniques. Tim’s ancestors were Scottish Clansmen, a fierce tribe of warriors who lived centuries ago in the Scottish Highlands above Perth – right at the top of the UK in the hills and glens. They were well known knife and sword makers 100’s of years ago and over time the traditions of making these knives have been passed on from one generation to another.

Tim now owns James Noble Knives and is looking to expand the business into the Gulf region. He has already sold many knives to wealthy individuals in the Middle East but he is now looking to find someone who wants to run their own business. This is your chance to become the owner of the Middle Eastern part of James Noble Knives Ltd.

He will supply all of the knives and marketing materials and you – if you are interested – will run the business here and take all of the profit after you have paid the agreed cost of each knife. It’s a ready-to-go business, all you have to say is yes. There are no costs; you don’t have to pay any money…just spend a bit of time and effort to get things moving. For someone that already owns a shop or a web site that sells nice cars, hunting holidays, prestigious gifts, or something aimed at wealthy people in the Gulf you could be on your way to making more money with no investment required from you at all!

James Noble Knives. Fine knives, traditionally made.


Each craftsman made knife by James Noble Knives Ltd is a one-off, custom made item that – with minimal care – should last for generations. Every part of a James Noble knife is hand-worked and finished in their workshops. They only ever use the highest quality materials, the steel hand-forged to highest tolerances and the handles made from hand selected hard wood burl – for the best grain through the hand, together with the finest colour and contrast – Samba Antler is also used, as well as mammoth ivory and teeth – taken from 10,000 year old wooly mammoths found under the ice in Siberia.

This knife was made by one of their apprentices to help him qualify as a craftsman…it has a hand carved wolf on the Samba Antler handle. The Damascus steel blade is hand blued by using heat to create a stunning effect.


There are plenty of other examples of the other hunting, fishing and camping knives they make…each is a beautiful companion for anyone who likes beautifully made items that last a lifetime.
