(MENAFN) Oman’s economy contracted last year after five years of growth, primarily on account of the drop in crude oil prices in the global market.
Furthemore, net exports faced a setback last year due to low oil prices, while prudent financial consolidation measures redcued government expenditure.
On the other hand, GDP contracted 14.1 percent in 2015, reflecting a reduction in two key constituents of aggreagte demand.
Accordingly, the creation of adequate employment chances for Omanis has been one of the main macro-economic objectives of the government in the recent years.
