Muscat - Pop icon Michael Jackson has arrived in Oman, amid reports the superstar intends to invest in a large tourism project in the Gulf Arab state, newspapers reported on Wednesday.
Jackson was seen on Tuesday at the VIP lounge at Muscat airport where "many passengers were surprised at being able to see Michael Jackson from such a close distance," said Al-Shabiba daily.
The paper said Jackson was on a private visit to Oman where unconfirmed reports said the star was planning to invest in a large tourism project.
Jackson took off for the Gulf state of Bahrain shortly after his acquittal on June 13 on charges of molesting a 13-year-old recovering cancer victim.
In August, the singer was seen touring the Gulf emirate of Dubai, where he is also reportedly considering buying property.
