To take the other side of the coin for once. Perhaps management is afraid of pissing off MOT or HOM or whatever acronym you choose and causing further delays so they stay quiet. Also very possible that they have no info to offer. The fact that we were led to believe, managment as well, that we are down to decorating and now have this unexplained delays could mean several differnet things but to me only options are:

1. Omani's dont care. In the scheme of things this project is a grain of sand and whenever they feel like it they will give the green light.... or not

2. they are delaying for political reasons

3. pressure from other projects causing delays

4. perhaps they stall long enough we go away and they go it alone (why they would do this I dont know but several plausible explanations)

BOTTOM LINE. My statement is total GUESS based on my own crazy brain telling me that something just isnt right in Denmark
