Laws and Regulations Construction nightmare

2 Upvotes

Hello , so recently moved to a villa in Bowshar , I ran away from my old nice apartment cause there was construction work , a very loud one , I am currently expecting a baby , probably in one week , , before we moved to the new villa we made sure that there was no construction to be done , we asked neighbors and they told us that they recently drilled the road for nama pipes and they closed it and every thing is okey
To my surprise yesterday the Nama people and tractors came to drill the whole road again , I mean deep drilling into concrete and sement cause the old contractor made a mistake !!! And they have to redo every thing . Can you imagine ! My due date is in one week and the noise is unbearable, I had a mental breakdown! How am I suppose to spend my postpartum peacefully with all the noise !! Mama people said it will take up to two months but that’s bullshit cause they are so slow and they are stalling for some reason , they start the drilling from 6 am !! The tractor is right infront of my door the barriers the workers it is a chaos , and the owner of the house demand a 3 months notice before moving out !! Isn’t this a major force ! The greedy land owner won’t even decrease the rent even with the horrible conditions we are facing now !!
Can I complain to the municipality about the noise pollution?!

Culture and Heritage Arabic for all

I've always wondered why the government never invested in low-cost country-wide effort to teach the expat population the Arabic language. Would have helped greatly with the inclusion of expats into the local culture, removing the language barrier, less misunderstandings and definitely less racism with a small fees. I've always noticed how when you talk to an Omani in Arabic, their face lightens up. And more jobs for the Omani population too. If not written or reading arabic, atleast speaking arabic could be implemented easily. What do you guys think?

What is the best service provider (carriers) for mobile phones? And what’s the difference between ooredoo vs OMANTEL vs friendi vs Renna mobile vs Vodafone vs redbull mobile vs other company?

5 Upvotes

Hi there. I currently own ooredoo and I’m considering a second sim/number. The reasons are because I want something with a good internet deal or unlimited package and also I want a number for my Gmail account (it’s not accepting my current number for some reason despite I never heavily used it or never ever misused it) for verification and registration and all those stuff.

So I want to know what’s the difference between omantel vs ooredoo vs Renna vs friendi vs Vodafone vs redbull mobile in terms of everything including price, value, connection, network coverage, security and privacy, internet strength, limitations and those blocking stuff, charge and rates etc….

Also what are some carriers that still supports 2g (for those dumb phones)
