Enough is enough

Iheard an MP, during a parliamentary session, confirm that Kuwaiti society in its entirety is satisfied with the parliament’s performance! Here comes the great shock because of those words, which start with a direct question to all “deputies of the nation” to whom we gave our votes to become our support and backup to build a better society did you conduct a popular survey about your parliamentary performance to reach this conclusion?

I believe that my following statements reflect the opinion of the majority of Kuwait’s society, which is still not enjoying all its constitutional rights, and here are some, not all, of the questions to our members of parliament:

• Did you provide our students with model schools?

• Do we now have many hospitals that are equipped at the highest medical level?

• Are all our youth who are at home waiting for a government job employed?

• Did we get universities that receive all our graduate students from the secondary stage?

• Is security and safety available completely to the Kuwaiti society?

• Have crimes and killings ended in Kuwait?

• Were those who committed medical errors in our society punished?

• Was the traffic crisis solved?

• Did you bring justice to every person that submitted a complaint to you?

• Did you discuss and settle the domestic help price rise?

• Did you give the right of each one deserving it in employment?

• Did you reform the employment graduation scale?

• Are our streets and our infrastructure in agreement with correct and sound specifications?

• Did every citizen get a house?

• Does the Kuwait citizen enjoy his constitutional rights?

A last word, among the sublime messages of HH the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad on Oct 30, 2016:

“Among the most important basics of parliamentary work is to comply with what was mentioned in the constitution in the form of principles, headed by separation of powers, while they maintain cooperation, and this is a national and constitutional duty, because it is the foundation of any successful institutional work. So members of the two authorities are asked to transform the cooperation wishes into reality and actual practical method through an agreement on national priorities that determines the fundamental issues, which we need to achieve during the current parliamentary term, be it in the fields of security, planning, development and other important issues that are on the citizen’s mind.”
