马斯喀特国庆节,阿曼,1993年

穿戴着穆斯林传统长袍和头巾、提着灯笼的男孩们已经成为阿曼国庆节(9月18号)不可或缺的一景。这个穆斯林国家靠乳业和现在的石油业富裕了起来,但是他们不得不考虑寻找新的出路,因为他们很快将面临油井枯竭的困境。





英文注释:
Muscat National Day, Oman, 1993

Boys dressed in traditional robes and turbans hold lanterns as part of Oman's National Day (November 18) celebrations. This Muslim country has enjoyed riches from frankincense and now oil, but is struggling to reinvent itself as its oil wells are expected to soon run dry.
