Sohar University

Sohar University, in Arabic جامعة صحار, is a private university in the Omani port city of Sohar, opened in September 2001 and proud in its own official profile of being the first private university in the Sultanate of Oman, sitting near Sohar Port and Free Zone in the country's second-largest city.苏哈尔大学（阿拉伯语名 جامعة صحار）是阿曼港口城市苏哈尔的一所私立大学，2001 年 9 月开学，其官方档案引以为豪的是「苏丹国第一所私立大学」之名，校址邻接苏哈尔港与自贸区，坐落在全国第二大城市。

Its history is unusually well documented for the region, with the Australian institution of higher learning University of Queensland as early partner, an Australian-dollar 120 million campus commission from 2008, and, from 2016 onward, a dense web of Chinese university agreements and a Belt and Road incubation centre on its own grounds.其地区史料的密度高出同侪，早年伙伴是澳大利亚高校昆士兰大学，2008 年委托设计了造价 1.2 亿澳元的新校区，2016 年起又密集缔结中国高校协议、并把「一带一路」创业孵化中心建进校园。

In the 2027 QS World University Rankings Sohar University occupies the 951-1000 band, the Times Higher Education ranking for 2027 places it at 801-1000, the 2026-2027 US News compilation does not list it, and the OpenAlex file behind these standings credits the institution with 4,148 works and 61,309 citations.在 2027 年版 QS 世界大学排名中，苏哈尔大学居 951-1000 档，2027 年泰晤士高等教育世界大学排名列其为 801-1000 档，US News 的 2026-2027 年度榜单未收录该校，OpenAlex 机构档案则记其 4,148 项作品、61,309 次被引，构成上述名次的科研底座。

History

• Opening teaching in September 2001, Sohar University took the place of first private university in the Sultanate of Oman, the status its QS profile repeats in its very first sentence, eleven years after the country's only public university had started.苏哈尔大学于 2001 年 9 月开学，拿下阿曼苏丹国第一所私立大学之名，其 QS 档案开篇首句即重申这一身份，此时距全国唯一公立大学开学已过去十一年。

• Chinese encyclopaedia snapshots record an early operating scale of some 2,500 students taught by a staff of about 150, modest figures from which the institution grew through the following two decades into a multi-faculty university.中文百科的旧快照记下早期办学规模约为学生 2,500 人、教职工 150 人，学校正是从这一基数用之后二十年长成一所多学院大学。

• The degree-granting foundation was a licence from the Ministry of Higher Education of Oman authorising the institution to confer its own degrees, an authorisation that its encyclopedia entries place ahead of any national accreditation milestone in the institutional chronology.办学的法权基础是阿曼高等教育部颁发的自主授位许可，各百科条目都把这一授权放在机构年表中所有国家认证节点之前。

• From the outset the university stood beside the University of Queensland, an affiliation its Chinese encyclopedia entries describe as attaching Sohar to the Australian campus that leads the INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITAS 21 network of universities, a link formalised when the Queensland side had 21 member institutions in 2005.创校之初大学便靠在昆士兰大学一侧，中文百科将其描述为隶属这所领跑 INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITAS 21 高校网络的澳洲校园，而昆士兰大学 2005 年前后恰以 21 所成员机构为该网络定名。

• In 2008 the Queensland-based firm Noel Robinson Architects was appointed to design a new campus at a cost reported as 120 million Australian dollars, the equivalent of about 43.5 million United States dollars at the 2026 rate of 2.73 riyals to the dollar.2008 年，昆士兰的 Noel Robinson Architects 事务所受聘设计新校区，造价报道为 1.2 亿澳元，按 2026 年 1 美元兑 2.73 里亚尔的比价约合 4,350 万美元。

• That commission's building list included a new library, sporting facilities, multi-purpose lecture theatres, a graduation hall, faculty buildings for engineering, business, health sciences, social sciences and humanities, administration and student-services blocks, and postgraduate residences, the whole campus being designed in collaboration with the University of Queensland.这份委托的建筑单包含新图书馆、体育设施、多用讲堂、毕业典礼厅、面向工程、商科、健康科学、社会科学与人文的学院楼、行政与学生事务楼以及研究生公寓，全部设计都与昆士兰大学协作完成。

• Governance runs through a charter framework, the highest body being a Board of Governors of fourteen members charged with supervising academic and administrative affairs, alongside a university council and an academic board in the same charter account.治理依章程框架运转，最高机构是由十四名成员组成、督察学术与行政事务的董事会，章程叙述中另有校务理事会与学术委员会并立。

• By 2014 the university was recruiting long-stay internationals, a southern-China business college of Guangdong University of Foreign Studies announcing in May 2014 the selection of second- and third-year Arabic students for a one-year exchange at Sohar.至 2014 年学校已在招收长期国际生，广东外语外贸大学旗下商学院于 2014 年 5 月公布遴选阿语专业二三年级学生赴苏哈尔进行一年期交流。

• In 2016 the university opened a comprehensive relationship with the China Education Research Institute and founded on its own campus a Belt and Road entrepreneurship incubation centre, the BRIII facility, aimed at training talent for the six Gulf Cooperation Council states.2016 年，大学与中国国际教育研究院建立全面合作，并在校内创设面向海湾六国（GCC）培养人才的「一带一路」创业孵化中心（BRIII）。

• The incubation centre took shape in the university's own words as an innovation and entrepreneurship hub opened in January 2017 in partnership with the China Education Research Institute and the Institute of Industrial Economics of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the first such China-side platform of its kind in Oman.按校方口径，该中心由学院联合中国国际教育研究院与中国社会科学院工业经济研究所于 2017 年 1 月启动，是阿曼国内首个此类中方双创平台。

• In May 2019 an international-education forum on the Omani side concluded with signed memoranda between the university and Zhejiang International Studies University and Hebei Foreign Studies University, the Sohar delegation being led by its president, Barry Winn.2019 年 5 月的一场国际教育论坛收尾于苏哈尔与浙江外国语学院、河北外国语学院签署的合作备忘录，苏哈尔方面由校长 Barry Winn 率队。

• In July 2024 President Barry Winn called at Beijing Foreign Studies University, meeting vice-president Yan Guohua, the two sides agreeing to push student and teacher exchange and to explore joint research on Silk Road themes.2024 年 7 月，校长 Barry Winn 访问北京外国语大学，会见副校长闫国华，双方商定推动师生交换并探讨丝绸之路主题的联合研究。

• In June 2025 an Ali Al Shamli-led delegation visited the Arabic department of Peking University, presenting a model of the historic Sohar vessel and discussing study-abroad places, the department answering with its own Chinese-Arabic dictionary.2025 年 6 月，阿里·沙姆利率团到访北京大学阿拉伯语系，赠出仿古「苏哈尔号」木船模型并商谈访学进修，北外方面回赠自编的《汉语阿拉伯语词典》。

• Also in 2024 the university reached preliminary consensus with the UNESCO International Centre for Higher Education Innovation on an artificial-intelligence laboratory project, a UNESCO-facing research line that the Chinese encyclopaedia entries single out as that year's main external agreement.同样在 2024 年，大学与联合国教科文组织高等教育创新中心就人工智能实验室项目达成初步共识，中文百科条目把这条面向教科文组织的科研线列为该年度最重要的对外协定。

• Earlier national context places it squarely in Oman's first private wave, after Majan University College founded in 1995 as the first private college, ahead of the 2002 decree that created non-profit Nizwa and the January 2004 ministerial decree that created Dhofar University.放进国家背景，它稳稳立于阿曼私立第一波，前有 1995 年创设的首所私立学院 Majan University College，后有催生非营利尼兹瓦的 2002 年诏令与催生佐法尔大学的 2004 年 1 月部长令。

• Quality supervision follows the national pattern, the Oman Authority for Academic Accreditation and Quality Assurance of Education running an institutional accreditation process operational since 2010 and listing Sohar University among the private higher-education institutions brought into its quality-assurance architecture.质量监管循国家路径，阿曼学术认证与教育保证局的机构认证流程自 2010 年运行，其质量架构收录的私立院校名单即包括苏哈尔大学。

• The exact year of its own institutional accreditation is not stated in the consulted record, leaving the school's accreditation milestone dated only against sector benchmarks, Dhofar University being the first private university accredited nationally in December 2018.本校通过机构认证的确切年份在所查材料中没有落点，其认证节点只能借同侪标尺定位，佐法尔大学是 2018 年 12 月首家取得国家认证的私立大学。

• Sector funding moved sharply around the school in the early 2020s, total Omani research and development spending rising from 121.27 million to 152.79 million Omani rials between 2022 and 2023, a 26 per cent increase in the published national accounts.2020 年代初期板块经费急剧上抬，2022 至 2023 年阿曼全社会研发支出由 1.2127 亿里亚尔增至 1.5279 亿里亚尔，公布的国家账目记为 26% 增幅。

• Within that rise the private contribution to research expenditure grew 44.6 per cent in 2023 over 2022, and the count of research centres housed in private higher-education institutions reached 21 by 2024, the numbers behind the sector the university heads.在这一升势中，2023 年私营部门研发支出较上年增长 44.6%，私立高校所属科研中心数到 2024 年达 21 个，正是这所大学所领跑的板块的底层数字。

• National research output rose 36.9 per cent in 2024 over 2023, a statistic released with the QS Oman Higher Education Report launched in Muscat in June 2025 under the patronage of Dr Khamis bin Saif Al Jabri of the Vision 2040 follow-up unit.2024 年全国科研产出同比增长 36.9%，该统计随《QS 阿曼高等教育报告》于 2025 年 6 月在马斯喀特发布，发布由愿景跟进局官员哈米斯·本·赛义德·贾布里博士主持。

• At the same launch Dr Mariam Al Nabhani, director general of private universities and colleges, noted that Omani universities ranked in the QS World University Rankings 2026 had grown from two to five, the private flagship among them being the Sohar institution.在同场发布会上，私立大学与学院事务总司长玛丽亚姆·纳巴尼博士指出进入 2026 年版 QS 世界排名的阿曼高校已由 2 所增至 5 所，其中的私立旗舰即苏哈尔这所。

• Arabic ranking directories present the school as the first private university in Oman to enter the QS global table, a claim consistent with the university's own trajectory from the 2025 band of 1001-1200 into the 2026 band of 951-1000.阿语榜单名录称它是阿曼首所进入 QS 全球排的私立大学，这与该校从 2025 年的 1001-1200 档爬进 2026 年 951-1000 档的轨迹彼此印证。

• The city that hosts it supplies the historical framing, Sohar having been a port on the ancient maritime Silk Road and today an industrial hub, a pairing the university's Chinese visitors of 2024 invoked when proposing joint Silk Road scholarship.所在的城市提供历史框架，苏哈尔既是古代海上丝绸之路港口又是今日工业枢纽，2024 年中国访客提出联合丝路研究时援引的正是这双重身份。

• Dating of the opening is not unanimous, a 2014 Chinese partner notice describing the university as founded in 2003, against the September 2001 opening carried by the QS profile, the English Wikipedia and every encyclopaedia mirror, the 2003 line being treated here as an outlier.开学年份并非铁板一块，2014 年中方合作公告把创校系于 2003 年，而 QS 档案、英文维基与各家镜像均作 2001 年 9 月开学，本文把 2003 之说按离群值处理。

Academics

• The current institutional shell is described in a 2026 Chinese compilation as six colleges running 67 programmes, a faculty-level list the compilation does not give and which the consulted English-language record cannot confirm by name.现制架构在 2026 年中文汇编中描述为 6 个学院、67 个专业，学院逐项名单该汇编未给出，所查英文材料同样无法按名核实。

• Its QS card counts 10 undergraduate and 47 postgraduate programmes, an offering weighted heavily toward graduate study for a private institution of its size, the ratio 1 to 4.7 distinguishing it from the flatter portfolios of its domestic rivals.QS 卡片计有本科课程 10 个、研究生课程 47 个，对一所同等规模的私立院校而言明显向研究生层倾斜，1 比 4.7 的比例与国内外平铺式的课程结构不同。

• In its earlier phase the teaching structure was departmental, Chinese encyclopedia entries listing departments of international trade, international education, arts, law, engineering management and English, served by the supporting Sohar University Language Centre.早年教学结构以学系为单位，中文百科列出国际贸易、国际教育、艺术、法律、工程管理与英语诸系，另有苏哈尔大学语言中心支撑。

• The language centre, known as SULC, runs graded courses in standard Arabic at elementary, intermediate and advanced levels, staffed by teachers drawn from across the Arab world and aimed at international students coming to learn Arabic rather than a degree subject.语言中心简称 SULC，开设初级、中级、高级三级标准阿拉语课程，师资取自阿拉伯各国，面向来修语言而非学位课程的国际学生。

• Law teaching reaches back to the departmental era and survives in a 2026 directory that lists the university as Oman's top private provider in the north with LLB degrees and a Master of Law in preparation, a table estimating undergraduate enrolment in law-linked programmes at 2,000 to 2,800 students.法学教学可上溯到学系时代，并留存于 2026 年的一篇目录，该目录称其为阿曼北部私立法学教育之首，授 LLB 且硕士项目在筹，并估其法律相关本科在读规模 2,000 至 2,800 人。

• Campus buildings commissioned in 2008 name the disciplinary ambitions in their titles, faculty blocks being specified for engineering, business, health sciences and social sciences and humanities, a quartet the earlier departmental list had only partly anticipated.2008 年委托的校园建筑以题名宣示学科志向，学院楼按工程、商科、健康科学、社会科学与人文四类指定，这一四分格局超出早先学系名单的覆盖。

• Enrolment carries three coexisting counts, 4,595 students in the QS profile, 7,119 students and 184 academic staff for 2022-2023 in the English Wikipedia with a citation-needed flag, and 15,289 students with 23,621 graduates accumulated to 2026 in the Chinese compilation.在校生规模有三个并存口径，QS 档案为 4,595 人，英文维基 2022-2023 学年记学生 7,119 人、教师 184 人并挂「来源待补」警示，中文汇编则称 2026 年在校 15,289 人、累计毕业 23,621 人。

• The QS file also fixes the staffing profile at 145 faculty with 77 of the student body coming from abroad, figures published beside the Very High research-output label the same file assigns to the university.QS 档案同时把师资定为 145 人、海外生源 77 人，这两个数字与其研究成果 Very High 等级标签同屏发布。

• Research volume is recorded in the OpenAlex institutional file as 4,148 works and 61,309 citations, an average of about 14.8 citations per work that is the quantitative baseline for the school's research claims.科研总量在 OpenAlex 机构档案中记为 4,148 项作品、61,309 次被引，篇均约 14.8 次被引构成其科研叙述的数量底线。

• Subject-level standing exists, the QS World University Rankings by Topic for 2026 placing the university's Business and Management Studies entry in the 401-450 band, the only subject line carried in the ranking mirrors consulted here.学科维度有名次可写，2026 年 QS 世界大学学科排名将该校「商业与管理研究」列入 401-450 档，是本文所查镜像中唯一一条学科线。

• External academic partnerships are anchored on the University of Queensland relationship, extended in Chinese encyclopaedia accounts to long-standing friendly ties with the University of Jordan and with Xi'an International Studies University.对外学术伙伴关系锚在昆士兰大学关系上，中文百科的叙述又将其延伸到与约旦大学、西安外国语大学的长期友好合作。

• China links carry dated instruments, the 2014 one-year exchange with a Guangdong University of Foreign Studies business college, the 2019 memoranda with Zhejiang International Studies University and Hebei Foreign Studies University, and the 2024 Beijing Foreign Studies University understanding on staff and student mobility.对华链接有带日期的文书，2014 年与广东外语外贸大学商学院的一年期交换、2019 年与浙江外国语学院和河北外国语学院的备忘录、2024 年与北京外国语大学关于师生流动的谅解均属此类。

• The Peking University channel opened at departmental level in June 2025, the visit of Ali Al Shamli proposing study-sojourns for Chinese students at the campus's Arabic centre, the counterpart gift being a compiled Chinese-Arabic dictionary.北京大学通道在 2025 年 6 月以系级打开，阿里·沙姆利的到访提出中国学生赴校阿语中心访学，对方回赠一部编纂中的汉阿词典。

• Incubation and innovation sit inside the academic estate, the BRIII centre being set up in 2016 to serve graduates and entrepreneurs across the Gulf Cooperation Council market rather than the Omani labour pool alone.孵化与创新嵌在教学区之内，2016 年设立的 BRIII 中心面向海湾六国（GCC）市场的毕业生与创业者，而不止服务阿曼一国劳动力。

• The 2024 agreement-in-principle with the UNESCO International Centre for Higher Education Innovation to build an artificial-intelligence laboratory extends the estate into machine-learning teaching infrastructure, the single clearest research line of that year in the record.2024 年与联合国教科文组织高等教育创新中心达成的共建人工智能实验室初步共识，把校区延伸至机器学习教学基础设施，是当年记录中最清晰的一条科研线。

• Degree authority and quality audit sit with different hands, conferral rights issuing from the Ministry of Higher Education while the institutional accreditation regime, operational since 2010, is exercised by the Oman Authority for Academic Accreditation and Quality Assurance of Education.学位权与质量审计分属两手，授予权出自高等教育部，机构认证自 2010 年起由阿曼学术认证与教育保证局执掌。

• Instructional language and local custom divide the curriculum as elsewhere in Oman, Arabic serving the language centre and humanities teaching while English carries business, engineering and law courses in the colleges named in the campus building programme.教学语言与当地习俗把课程切开，阿拉语供语言中心与人文教学使用，英语则承担校园建筑清单里工程、商科与法学的学院课程，这一点与阿曼各校通例一致。

• For comparison within the private cohort, the QS programme cards put Nizwa at 62 study programmes and Dhofar University above 50 bachelor and some 20 master degrees, Sohar's combined 57 undergraduate-and-postgraduate lines with 67 compiled majors sitting among them.放到私立梯队里比较，QS 卡片记尼兹瓦 62 个课程项目、佐法尔大学本科逾 50 且硕士约 20，苏哈尔 57 项本科与研究生课程合计、汇编口径 67 个专业，与其同处一个量级。

Campus

• The campus stands in the heart of Sohar, the industrial hub that ranks as the second-largest city of the Sultanate, positioned close to Sohar Port and Free Zone and described in the official profile as giving easy access to Muscat and to the United Arab Emirates.校园坐落在苏哈尔市中心，此地是苏丹国第二大城市与工业枢纽，紧邻苏哈尔港与自贸区，官方档案称由此往返马斯喀特和阿联酋都很方便。

• Road distances given in Chinese encyclopedia accounts put the campus two hours' drive from the capital Muscat and two hours from Dubai, a twin-hour framing the school has used to court international students.中文百科给出的公路距离是距首都马斯喀特两小时车程、距迪拜两小时车程，这一「双两小时」表述也是学校招徕国际学生的话术。

• Postal addressing runs to Al Jameah Street in Sohar, the English Wikipedia adding the postcode 311, while the coordinate data used in the ranking file reads 24.34745 degrees north and 56.70937 degrees east, near the 24 degrees 17 minutes by 56 degrees 46 minutes stated in the same encyclopedia entry.通信地址为苏哈尔的 Al Jameah Street，英文维基补邮编 311，排名档案所用坐标为北纬 24.34745 度、东经 56.70937 度，与同一词条所载 24 度 17 分、56 度 46 分几乎重合。

• The campus core described in the official profile is a Learning Resources Centre presented as world-class, ringed by flexible learning spaces and social and recreational facilities, the building acting as the hub the profile places at the heart of student days.官方档案里的校园核心是一座被称为世界水平的学习资源中心，四周布弹性学习空间与社交休闲设施，这幢楼被档案安放在学生日子的正中心。

• The same profile singles out the university's laboratories, its labs being presented as an impressive array providing the means for research, knowledge transfer and student engagement rather than teaching only.同一档案特别点出实验室，称校内实验室阵容可观，为科研、知识转移与学生参与而非单纯教学提供手段。

• The 2008 architectural commission's programme gave the campus its graduation hall, multi-purpose lecture theatres, sports facilities and postgraduate residences, the residential element marking an explicit push toward graduate education in the building list itself.2008 年建筑委托的任务书给了校园毕业典礼厅、多用讲堂、体育设施与研究生公寓，居住配套的出现意味着任务书本身已明示向研究生教育发力。

• Campus figures that the public record does not carry, area in hectares, floor space and library holdings, are left unmentioned here, the sources consulted fixing only the built list and the street and coordinate positions.公开材料未载的校园数字，占地公顷数、建筑面积与图书馆藏量，在此一概不落笔，所查来源只固定了建筑清单、街道门牌与坐标位置。

• In the 2027 QS World University Rankings the university occupies the 951-1000 band, the grouped interval it has held since the 2026 edition, before which the same table had placed it in 1001-1200 for 2025.在 2027 年版 QS 世界大学排名中，该校居 951-1000 档，这一并列区间自 2026 年版起持有，此前 2025 年版将其放在 1001-1200 档。

• The US News Best Global Universities compilation for 2026-2027 does not carry the institution at all, unlike its inland rival, the University of Nizwa, which the same cycle's table holds at 996, a point of divergence within Oman's first private wave.US News 的 2026-2027 年度全球最佳大学榜单完全未收该校，与其内陆对手尼兹瓦大学形成对照，同一周期表把尼兹瓦列在第 996 位，阿曼私立第一波内部就此分野。

• The 2026 ARWU academic ranking of world universities, the ShanghaiRanking Consultation main list, has no line for the university, so its Shanghai-based standing is written as absent rather than replaced with any earlier year's result.2026 年软科世界大学学术排名主榜没有该校一行，其在软科的位次据此写为「未进入」，不以往年结果顶替。

• Regionally the QS Arab University Rankings card shows the university at 81 in its current version, the trend of the same table's earlier snapshot having it at 100, a rise mirrored in the mirrors that carry both versions of the card.地区层面，QS 阿拉伯地区大学排名卡片现版显示该校列第 81 位，更早快照同屏作第 100 位，两张卡片的先后版本在转载镜像里都能查到。

• QS's sustainability ranking table places the university in the 1251-1300 band, a second global listing beside the main ranking and the Business and Management Studies subject line of 401-450 scored in 2026, the school's subject-level entry.QS 可持续性排名表将该校放在 1251-1300 档，这是主榜之外的第二个全球名单，加上 2026 年记入的「商业与管理研究」401-450 学科线，构成其学科层面的入场券。

Student life

• Its adopted catch-motto, given in the Chinese encyclopedia boxes as Your way to a promising future, sits alongside an official value list that promises a supportive academic environment combining study with social, cultural, sports and leisure opportunity.中文百科信息框给出的通行格言是「Your way to a promising future」，与官方价值清单并列，后者承诺把学业同社会、文化、体育与休闲机会熔成一个支持性学术环境。

• Values published in the institutional description promote the highest academic and professional standards with open and critical thinking, and a respect for students and staff of different countries, religions and cultures, the diversity clause written into the governance charter itself.机构描述公布的价值观主张最高学术与专业标准、开放而批判的思维，并尊重来自不同国家、宗教与文化的师生，多元条款直接写进治理章程。

• The equality article of the same value list rules discrimination on sex, race, colour, religion, disability or age unacceptable and reports an implemented policy statement raising equal-opportunity awareness among all students and staff.同一价值清单的平等条款宣布基于性别、种族、肤色、宗教、残障或年龄的歧视为不可接受，并声称已落地提升全员平等机会意识的政策声明。

• International student life runs through the Sohar University Language Centre, whose elementary to advanced Arabic courses bring learners from across the Arab world to the campus, the school advertising a pure language environment with few Chinese students and plentiful jobs.国际学生的校园生活绕不开苏哈尔大学语言中心，其从初级到高级的阿语课程把阿拉伯各国的学习者招进校园，校方宣传的卖点是语言环境纯正、中国学生稀少而就业机会充裕。

• A partner brochure from 2014 pitched the student experience with a mobility perk, enrolled students at Sohar travelling visa-free to the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait, a Gulf-wide circulation promise made in the Chinese-language notice.2014 年的中方合作简章用一项通行便利推介留学体验，在苏哈尔注册的学生前往阿联酋、巴林、卡塔尔与科威特免签，这份海湾全域流动的许诺写在中文公告里。

• The English Wikipedia infobox gives the vice-chancellor as Hamdan Sulaiman Al Fazari, while Chinese management listings for earlier years style the same man vice-chancellor for resources with a master's in business administration and a French doctorate, the office's current occupant therefore unfixable from the record.英文维基信息框把校长（副校长职衔）记为哈姆丹·苏莱曼·法扎里（Hamdan Sulaiman Al Fazari），中文管理名录早年版本则以其为资源副校长、衔工商管理硕士与法国博士学位，在任者因此无法从材料中钉实。

• Yan Guohua, vice-president of Beijing Foreign Studies University, is the Chinese counterpart recorded in the July 2024 meeting, a host name rather than a Sohar one, preserved here for the completeness of the exchange trail.闫国华，北京外国语大学副校长，是 2024 年 7 月会见记录里的中方对手方，属东道姓名而非苏哈尔人名，为交换线索的完整而存此一笔。
