Taiwan and Oman have long enjoyed friendly and cordial relations. We have close cooperation in many fields. Bilateral economic cooperation and cultural exchanges are increasing year by year.
Nowadays the Omani government is focusing on promoting the development of a wide range of sectors, such as agriculture, fisheries, finance, solar energy, tourism as well as small and medium enterprises. We therefore encourage Taiwanese companies to explore business opportunities in these sectors.
In April, 2016, Taiwan conducted a successful workshop and travel fair in Muscat for local travel tour agents. Medical tourism in Taiwan is very advanced. High quality treatment is provided to patients at reasonable prices in Taiwan. There is huge potential for bilateral cooperation in this field
.
In June, 2015, Oman’s Capital Market Authority (CMA) signed a contract to engage the Taipei Exchange as expert consultants. The Taipei Exchange will provide assistance in the design and development of capital market products and services in Oman aimed at supporting the growth of SMEs.
Taiwan is now offering its expertise in the field of aquaculture to Oman as the country is diversifying its economy. Solar energy is another area for cooperation as Taiwan is one of the largest producers of solar cells in the world.
Taiwan looks forward to working with Oman to widen market access, expand cooperation, and take bilateral trade to new heights. We hope that enterprises from the two sides will increase their direct engagement, explore new opportunities for cooperation, and cultivate new drivers for all forms of economic cooperation.
Our office here in Oman will spare no effort to build bridges for communication and cooperation between our business communities and further contribute to the development of mutually beneficial and pragmatic cooperation between Taiwan and Oman.
