(MENAFN) Oman aims to borrow USD10bn from overseas markets in the coming four years in order to meet budget deficit in the severe fall in oil revenue.
However, a fall in oil prices has caused a large deficit in the budget since last year, while the government has to look for ways to meet these challenges.
