Fan-freaking-tastic post!
Second life as a portal to promote Oman tourisim? Joke. I am calling your bluff man, this is a test to see if we are paying attention.
Just in case you are not kidding, I am in total agreement that second life is not the forum to showcase Oman for potential tourists.
In addition to the good reasons that you listed, there are countless PR pitfalls that opening a second life business would leave Oman vulnerable to. Let's say Human Rights Watch stages a virtual Sit in? Or the Rainbow Coalition organises a Virtual Gay love fest to protest discrimination against Homosexuals in the Arab World?
The possible PR disasters are endless, and would likely break into Mainstream media. Bad, Bad, Idea.
Um, Who pays for these seminars? And can I get invited because I really like free food, and Chocolate Fudge.

Suburban, these events are open to the public, they are organised by PEIE/KOM, you just need to reserve your seat prior to the event. I'll let you know when they have the next one!
