Hello there MOHAMMAD ADNAN FAROOQUI,

Welcome to expat-blog!

It will be much appreciated if you could help member Mukesh with some infos on the topic he posted as you are optometrist.

Feel free to share and enlighten Mukesh.

P.s It will be much appreciated if you lower your caps when you write on the forum. Upper caps are often viewed as "shouting".

Hi mukesh, I will do my best to clear u r doubts.
Salary of 400 omr is good n reasonable. There are many hotels which provide food for three times a day for 35omr so as per my knowledge u can save near  about 310omr per month comfortably.

Still any queries feel free to ask me.
Thanks
