37 years in the making

It's been reported in the Oman Tribune that:

The Ministry of Regional Municipalities, Environment and Water Resources is carrying out a comprehensive study to assess hazards of flooding in the areas affected by the recent unusual weather conditions in order to identify the natural and unnatural reasons which caused the flooding and to find solutions to avoid such damage in future.

So, in actuality, this study took 37 years to be realized in necessity when the government gave out land properties to the citizens in wadi streams and after such immense damage was done throughout the years that the Sultanate had a large amount of rainfalls in?

Wow.

And I thought I was slow.
