Oman plans $1.5bn 'medical city'



Oman plans to build a 570 million rial ($1.48 billion) medical complex and will invite bids this year to manage construction, a ministry of health official said on Monday.
"The project management tender will be floated this year to build the medical city in northern Batnah," Ahmed Al Qasmi, director general for planning at the health ministry, said at a construction seminar in Muscat.
Batnah is a northern coastal region which is the most populated area in Oman after the capital Muscat.
The government-funded project will cover 5 million square metres and include residential space and shopping malls as well as hospitals.
