Answer
It can be seen
that oil and gas are the main sources of the Oman economy. Both of these
products are involved in playing an important role in the economic growth of
Oman. This country thinks that the export of these products will allow the
country to solve many problems that are related to economics in a proper way. The
largest export of Oman is Oil products. They have calculated the value of these
products for the upcoming years. This is the reason this country has blind
trust in the export of oil products in different countries that will help them
in economic growth.
The export of
these products will also damage the economic growth of other countries. The
reason is that oil is one of the major factors in moving the country in a proper
way. This oil mostly imported by other countries by Oman. This country has the
authority to increase the export prices of Oil. In doing this, it will increase
the import prices of oil in other countries. This result in weakens the
economic growth of these countries (Ebenstein, 2012).
References of reliance on oil and gas exports make Oman growth vulnerable to changes in other economies?
