People of yore brought alive Our 1970’s opus bring forth a variety of heartwarming stories of people who made their mark in the lives of many and helped bring about the wondrous world we see around today.

With their sweat and blood, their dreams and vision, these men and women, along with this country’s chief architect and great visionary, His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said, brought about the towering structure of modern Oman.

This book provides a glimpse into the past and brings several aspects of it alive.

Astounding in their own right, these stories also bring several historical contexts, the untold past, clearly and fascinatingly alive so that we are able to interlace them with the current to make it an oral history that is forever embedded in posterity.

16 Cover: By Hala Mahmoud

The interest these people and many others have taken to bring the past and its protagonists alive and well is again a testimony to the love, care and attention Omanis have for their country, their people, past and present. There is a genuine need from their side to chronicle the past and preserve it and thus, from our end, it is an enriching exercise that brings in rich dividends as we are able to become the mouthpieces of a unique generation that we hope to keep alive forever through this book!

approach and untiring perseverance. “He was a man who lived, breathed and loved Oman and its people!�

Sheikh Breik was born in Salalah in 1934. He studied in the famous Al Saiydiyah School in Salalah. His father, Sheikh Hamoud bin Hamad Al Ghafri was the Wali of Dhofar. Therefore, Sheikh Breik was exposed to the world of governance at a very young age. It also gave him an insight into the challenges that particular part of Oman faced and slowly gave him an idea as to how to rise above these challenges. “Getting close to His Majesty the Sultan was a turning point in his life. He understood the far reaching vision of His Majesty and believed in his values.

Sharing the vision of His Majesty for the need of a wholesome change in Oman, he set about to slowly work in the direction that His Majesty had wanted the country to move. Top on his agenda was the need to bring about a change in Dhofar and to restore peace in the area.

Unlike many, Sheikh Breik was a man who took the bull by its horns and he confronted every problem in this manner. He did not let anyone else fight for him, a fact that was witnessed in the manner he used to travel on the mountains in Dhofar to look into the welfare of the people affected.

“His Majesty was concerned about the welfare of each and every citizen in Oman and Sheikh Breik was given this task to make sure that everyone was well taken care of.

“He used to tour the mountainous areas and found out ways to develop them and would be constantly on the move checking out both mountains and valleys in this regard. It was not easy to move about in the mountains, but he was indifferent to the harshness of the mountain areas and slowly by dint of hard work and tireless effort, he managed to bring about change in the area.

He achieved in not only in developing the harsh environment but also brought about security, stability and peace there.”

Following the instructions of His Majesty, he also made sure that the immediate requirements for progress like education; water and electricity and other necessary amenities were all provided for. I remember that he was the one who introduced the project of the ‘flying doctors’”. These facts were also featured in a documentary – prepared upon the order of His Majesty, the Sultan – on Sheikh Breik, which

Teaching the Holy Quran in the ‘70’s “As a teacher I learnt many lessons of life that helped me live a simple life. Teaching has made me confident and also become a leader. The 1970s saw a new Oman being planned and created. If you look at the opportunities ladies have today, I can proudly say Oman is one country where womenfolk are given all opportunities in life, from education to arts and science, and in corporate and national governance too. I am proud to be an Omani and salute His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said who made Oman a better place to live in. The progress and development is unique and is not instant. It is the hard work and dedication of many under the wise leadership of His Majesty the Sultan. We all should strive hard to maintain the pace of the progress to create a new and positive world. Oman today has thousands of schools, and the youth should make the maximum of the facilities available and serve the nation to progress. Progress is one thing that has to be on going.

Place your faith in the Holy Quran “I wish the younger generation will attend the Holy Quran classes along with the regular academics. The older generation was equipped to face the challenges of life because they were strong in character and had morals to guide them forward.

too.” Ahmed Fareed recalls one such incident when one of the local newspapers erroneously published a photo of His Majesty saluting with his left hand. It was a mistake, but we still had to get to the bottom of it. I was asked to find out details as to how the error occurred. It was a bad weather day and heavily pouring. When I reached the ministry of information, everything was flooded and rooms were leaking, water was flowing all around.

“We have no shelter here and you are asking me about an error? The gentleman from the other side of the room asked me jokingly. But, whatever the situation, it was no laughing matter. I remember driving home the message to him that the right communication was a must. The world is watching… in the next 30 minutes, I found out how the

error occurred and I went back to the ministry. So we all tried to get the things under control... the initial teething troubles were common in all departments, but a handful of good responsible citizens made the difference and maintained sanity, doing their duties with utmost sincerity and commitment!”

Tough times saw the emergence of tougher men and women who worked along with His Majesty to tirelessly work for the nation. “The 1970s saw many people joining hands to be part of the renaissance movement initiated by our beloved leader His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said. I would say selflessness was an important attribute of all then; a trait that is hardly ever seen today. All of us worked for one common cause – our nation, guided and unified by one leader!”

Career took us places In the early years, the government and the authorities concerned planned to create healthy departments in all sectors. “Time, money and energy were invested on training people the right way. There were no standards to measure and every career took people places. His Majesty the Sultan has said that human resources are the assets of every nation.

Pearl diving Pearls were in good demand in those days and the money kept the divers motivated. “Most of the times the pearls turned out to be rare and small, but we always found buyers. Oman was famous for pearls and we had good Asian and European visitors who bought them as well as some regular buyers. The local market was not thriving and healthy, but we, the young fishermen, made our extra money by selling pearls.

On one occasion, in the late 60’s, Mabrook had an exciting lucky experience: “I dove as usual and found oysters, but this time one of them had a cluster of small pearls – not one or two, but 30 -- embedded inside! It was an unbelievable find for me!”

Many valuable lessons If the pearl industry in Oman had thrived, all of those who were in that profession would be in a better position today, he feels. But the sea taught him not to have any regrets. “It taught me not just that – but everything! So many valuable lessons!

“Simple tricks, employing the trial and error process etc., taught me how to live. When I used to get queasy or sea sick on sea, I would drink a mouth of sea water. It may taste bad, but, it made me alright! Just a mouth or two, more will make you sicker! Everything should be taken in moderation!

“When you are alone and have to fend for yourself, what do you learn?

Courage! Yes, a life of sailing and fishing has taught me to be brave and more importantly to have patience. It taught me to face life head on and to swim out of darkness. I have had a happy life, though there are times

when I wish I could have done better, sailed to other countries too!” But, he immediately noted how tough and challenging life was then. “I was the sole bread earner for my family and I had to bring home the bacon! The sea taught me great patience and it also taught me how to deal with life and even sudden surprises – even nasty ones -- and rise up to any challenges.

“Today, thank God, I am still alive to tell you all these tales. I am the sole surviving member of that fishing and pearl diving clan of that time in Muttrah.

All of my friends have passed away … now whenever I get a chance, I will pass on the seafaring and pearling tales of my time, detailing to the youngsters of today the stories of fear as well as triumph, also teaching them a few fishing tricks that I have learnt during my time. “I never had a camera or nor even thought of recording any of the events of my humble past, but, I have still managed to sketch some of the vessels that I had sailed on for my children and my grandchildren to see!”

Seashells collector Don became a collector of seashells as a result of the family’s weekend visits to the local Omani beaches, where he found the seashells on the shore. He wrote to the Museum of Natural History in New York City, asking them if they would be interested in specimens collected from Oman. The museum responded with enthusiasm, advising that they would be happy to identify any specimens that he sent, as their scientists had very little knowledge of the seashells of Oman.

Exploring writing skills Dr Bosch also explored his skills in the writing field and in 1982, he and his wife co-authored their first book on Oman’s seashells, Seashells of Oman. Two other books, Seashells of Southern Arabia (9189) and Seashells of Eastern Arabia (1995), followed. The good doctor, his wife, children and grand children were involved in discovering 20 species of seashells in Oman, which were new to science. Some of them were named after the family members.
