Moody's downgrades three Kuwait banks for weak credit




LINK

Have you seen this covered anywhere else in our local media ?

Why when there is BAD news, almost no body covers them ??

How many bad things are happening and no body are talking about ??

Hiding bad news will have a devastating effect on us getting out of the crisis.

And it means that the crisis will be far form over even when everybody here say it is.

P.S. Now I know why the camel have stopped taking hits and started dancing .....!

Last day before Ramadhan & the Restaurants




Yesterday, I went to a shopping mall to have lunch. Most of the restaurants had their tables full and people were waiting.

This is the first time I witness the phenomena in this capacity.

Well, The restaurants should be making a lot of money on that day. And from now on they have to really prepare well for it.

And a scary thought crossed my mind ...!

With the rich people influencing almost everything around us. do you think we will see the day where rich people will try to push Ramadhan one day later to make more money selling food.

I was really terrified of that thought.

Let's keep a close eye .....

P.S. : by the way, I know most of the owners of the large restaurants in Kuwait and I know they would never even entertain anything thought this.

Wedding Tent Fire Kills more than 40



قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم :
كلكم راع وكلكم مسئول عن رعيته، فالإمام راع ومسئول عن رعيته، والرجل راع في أهل بيته ومسئول عن رعتيه، والمرأة راعية في بيت زوجها ومسئولة عن رعيتها، والخادم راع في مال سيده ومسئول عن رعيته، وكلكم راع ومسئول عن رعيته.

So please stop pointing fingers to one party than the other.

Every body who can take responsibility should take responsibility.

Steak Challenge : Roadster Diner , Beirut



A friend of mine took me to Roadster Diner in El Hamra , Beirut.

I ordered the T-bone steak , medium well.

It definitely better than chili's and applebees. but does not come at the top.

I liked the restaurant overall.

Its worth a try.

I give it (3/5).
