It's time for an update on the Save Energy Oman campaign. I do not have any data yet on the actual savings but what i can say is that many public and private institutions have joined the campaign. Here are a few: Ministry of Fisheries Wealth, Ministry of National Economy, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Interior, HSBC, Oman Arab Bank, Omantel, nawras, City Center, Oman Cables Industry, Ahli Bank, Microsoft and many more!
The campaign is these days in Salalah, for the famous Salalah Tourism Festival which is taking place from 15th of July to the end of August. If you have not been there yet i suggest a visit as it is the greenest and coolest place in the Middle East this time of the year.
Visitors to the stand, beautifully designed by navyblue, can hear tips on how to save electricity, and money, within their homes and at their workplace, while cute Noor, the animated White Oryx and the campaign’s unofficial spokesperson, will appear on a number of TV screens talking about how and why everyone should sign up to the cause.
Here are a couple of photos of the inauguration of the stand by the Minister of State and Governor of Dhofar H.E. Abdullah Aqeel Al Ibrahim as well as the popular "kids zone".
There are lots of freebies to be collected too, if you hurry, as well as a grand prize of a 32” LCD TV kindly donated by OTE.

Oh, and don't forget to set your AC units on 23 degrees or Noor will be upset!
Great ^-^
ReplyDeleteHi Princess, if you happen to go to the festival check out the stand and let me know what you think about it...:)
ReplyDeleteThis is what customers ask for! No company will sell these days without doing anything for the environment. And I am a very bad girl because the environment is not always important to me, I just do what I want. Maybe they should brainwash me, so I become a good girl :).
ReplyDeleteRamadan mubarak for you
ReplyDeleteDomino, I'm sure you're not that bad...:)It just takes time to change our habits but we can all contribute to the environment in many ways with very little efforts. For instance, every day i turn the PC monitors and TV completely off, so I'll save energy and a little money too.
ReplyDeleteSonnet; thank you and Ramadan mubarak to you too.
