Hala Oman contains all the information sought by tourists, foreign investors, residents and citizens of Oman. It includes the important tourist sites, hotels and restaurants as well as a comprehensive telephone directory including clinics, government bodies, hospitals and emergency services.
Graeme Selby, general manager at Mazoon added: 'We have tried to capture the essence of Oman and all it has to offer in this guide and it should be a constant reference point for the reader and we hope to see many people using the guide. We at Mazoon are very proud of this publication and are already working on the next issue'.
The event was well attended by specially invited guests including several sponsors and clients of Mazoon Press and Publishing.
The ceremony was followed by dinner and a video screening of the pages of Hala Oman.
Hala Oman will be distributed throughout the Sultanate and is free of charge.
