The Editorial Article by Lamk Al-Lamki "UN Millennium Development Goals and Oman: Kudos to Oman on its 40th National Day" published in the December 2010 issue of SQUMJ1 depicts comprehensively how Oman has fared in relation to the Millennium Development Goals (MDG's) benchmarks. Indeed, Al Lamki's article has also provided a well articulated discussion of Oman's development and progress in the health field in the last 40 years that has exceeded all expectations. There is no doubt that Oman has made impressive gains in achieving health-related targets and evidence for that was carefully provided in the article. In this regard, I would like to comment on three important points that were especially mentioned in that article.
