40th National Day in Oman 2010
is being prepared for in Salalah
Though it’s a few months away the preparations for Oman 40th National Day on 18th November 2010 are under way.

Football in Oman
a win for National day
Al Taawn Football Team, which we sponsor, had a good win in the local league competition to celebrate Oman’s 39th National Day . They won the first round 4:1 and went through to the final against Hai Aldhahir .
In a very competitive game the single goal was scored by Yahya AlBusafi of Al Taawn . So it’s probably the only time Arabesque will overcome the might of Toyota – as we sponsor the winning team and they the losers.
