Labour Ministry unveils vocational plan for governorates
Salalah: Sayyid Salim bin Musallam al Busaidi, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Labour for Human Resources Development, affirmed that the Ministry is advancing a new generation of specialised training and development programmes tailored to the specific needs of each governorate. These efforts aim to strengthen human capital and align skills development with the priorities of Oman Vision 2040. Speaking at the 11th Annual Human Development Conference in Salalah, al Busaidi announced that customised training initiatives will be introduced for each governorate, focusing on building local leadership and technical specialisations that directly address regional development requirements. He described the initiative as a strategic step towards decentralised, results-oriented training. He further noted that the Ministry is working to establish clear vocational pathways beginning at the intermediate school level. These pathways will enable Omani youth to pursue professional education aligned with their individual aptitudes and the economic priorities of their local communities. Each governorate will benefit from a unique comparative advantage, with vocational colleges and training centres delivering programmes tailored to those needs. 'We are currently piloting two models to establish a comprehensive vocational track that links education with employment and improves the job readiness of our youth,' said Al Busaidi. He emphasised that these initiatives build upon previous achievements, with renewed focus on enhancing training quality and expanding developmental impact. Al Busaidi concluded by reaffirming the Ministry's commitment to empowering Omanis across all governorates, stating that these targeted programmes represent a transformative phase in national workforce development, built on principles of specialisation, decentralisation, and future-readiness.

Iran-US nuclear talks in Oman cancelled after Israeli attacks
The nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States scheduled for Sunday in the Omani capital Muscat have been cancelled, Omani Foreign Minister Badr Al Busaidi said in a post on X on Saturday as the conflict between Iran and Israel rages on. 'The Iran US talks scheduled to be held in Muscat this Sunday will not now take place. But diplomacy and dialogue remain the only pathway to lasting peace,' Al Busaidi wrote. The Iranian Foreign Ministry said earlier that the government sees no purpose in continuing the negotiations following Israel's large-scale attack on Iranian nuclear sites, military leaders and top scientists early on Friday. Tehran called the onslaught a declaration of war, and retaliated, firing dozens of missiles and drones towards Israel on Saturday. Washington and Tehran have been negotiating over Iran's controversial nuclear programme for around two months, mediated by Oman. Tehran was in return pushing for international sanctions to be lifted. US President Donald Trump has threatened military action should the talks fail. The US and Iran resumed their talks in April for the first time since Washington withdrew from the Vienna nuclear agreement in 2018. That deal came amid fears in Israel, the US and other Western countries that Iran is secretly developing nuclear weapons, though Tehran continues to insist its programme is solely for civilian purposes. The 2015 Vienna agreement saw Iran agree to restrict its nuclear programme after lengthy negotiations with China, Russia, the US, France, Germany and the UK. However, after Trump unilaterally withdrew from the pact in 2018, he imposed new, harsh sanctions, crippling the Iranian economy. (DPA)
