"The Wave's resilience and growth in difficult conditions is a measure of the confidence in its offering from investors across Oman and the GCC. We are proud to make this contribution to the Oman community, and look forward to securing the best available talent to strengthen our operations."


The downturn, he added, is a signal opportunity for carefully considered development projects like The Wave to boost resources and improve efficiency.

More than 700 homes are currently under construction at The Wave, Muscat, with 300 scheduled for delivery in Q4 2009. More than 5,000 men and women currently staff the company's operations, including Omani nationals.
