One of the suggestions included promoting Indian patent technologies to the world. "The whole world knows India for its software. My humble suggestion would be to display Indian patented technologies to the world", said a member.
"A welcome email that is a brochure suggesting some of the do's and dont's for the tourists who come to the country" is another recommendation that was given.
There were a lot of social workers who had suggestions to improve the conditions of the blue collar workers including bringing amnesty to Oman.
A youth forum for all the high school where they can share their ideas not just for cultural and educational purposes but also for policies and decision making of the nation was an idea that was well received by both the ambassador as well as the community.
