History and profile
The Oman Daily Observer was established on 15 November 1981. It is the only English-language newspaper to be published on all seven days in Oman, as its two competitors have no editions during weekends.
The 'Observer' focuses on local, national, regional, and international news, covering current affairs, business, and sports.[citation needed] It also pays special attention to Oman's economic development, highlighting the country's natural, historical, and cultural wealth.[citation needed]
Abdullah bin Salim al Shueili, the current Editor-in-Chief of the Observer, has been in the post since 2013.[4]
