The full text of the royal speech
His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said bin Taimur Al Said - may God rest his soul -
We are pleased on the occasion of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development to address the whole world, and we speak to the two conferences in particular, recalling their previous international meeting in (Stockholm) That historic meeting, which is the first correct step, to establish a healthy relationship between man and his environment, twenty years have passed since that meeting, during which the world witnessed many environmental disasters resulting from its conflicts and the commission of its hand, before it realized the dangers of danger again. We are in the Sultanate of Oman In the Arab world, we would like to pay tribute to the decision of the United Nations General Assembly, and its organizational role for this conference, as we thank the friendly government of Brazil, for its effort and coordination. As a scientist living together, on this earthly planet, we have neglected a lot of the issue of preserving the environment, natural resources In the absence of collective coordination, but we went in the opposite direction in a strange race in search of luxury and industrial progress, without taking into account the assumed balance between development and the environment, and without taking into account the dire effects of this industrial progress on our atmosphere and the Ozo layers The waters of rivers and seas, the extinction of life and forests, and fertile soil contamination, and if the situation continues in this way, humankind may witness a kind of collective suicide. O conferees ... The preservation of the environment is a collective responsibility that is not bounded by the political borders of countries, this has been proven only once Accordingly, wherever it is, a person must contribute to preserving the environment, reconcile with it, deal with it rationally, and pay attention to the many causes of pollution, whether natural, biological, industrial, chemical, or physical, and for many people, limit random reproduction and preserve On what remains of its pastures and waters, away from the effects of desertification and drought, we also call on the industrialized world to stop this technological competition and race against it, and to narrow the wide gap in the global economy, between it and the developing countries, in order to maintain the required balance between the desired development And keep his environment pure. We are confident that your conference will attach the utmost importance to the issues related to this issue. We in the Sultanate of Oman with our personal attention and our permanent directives to our government and in coordination with the countries surrounding us, we are making sincere efforts to preserve our environment and regional waters away from pollution and noise, and the Gulf region and the Middle East have recently witnessed unfortunate environmental disasters It is painful as a result of its conflicts, and unless the regional problems are resolved in a proper way, the efforts made to preserve the environment and continue in rational development remain prone to waste.
