Hi dchoudhary57,

"Luxury" is subjective.

One full meal a day, for a starving individual would be a luxury.

A place to sleep comfortably, would be a luxury for a homeless person.

What does the word 'luxury' mean to you ? It all depends on that.

Plus of course on what your package includes / excludes.

R.O. 800/- for a bachelor is not a bad deal. But R.O. 1,800/- is better, if you know what I mean.

Khimji's are perhaps the oldest business families who came from India and have set up businesses here in the Sultanate. Khimji's are in Oman for the last 145 years ! For all practical purposes, the country in itself is just 45 years old (since His Majesty Sultan Qaboos Bin Said took over the reigns, to transform the reclusive desert nation to what it is today - a modern and confident cosmopolitan country).
