Kuwait: We want our piece of the oil pie

At yesterday’s opening session of Kuwait’s second legislative session of the eleventh Parliament, about 50 citizens rallied in silent protest in front of Parliament requesting a bailout of citizens’ financial debts. The group calling itself, “Al Takafal Al Ishtemai” were draped in black scarves and adorned with black badges saying “Yes to the waiver of loans”.

Across the board the men noted the large oil surplus proceeds flooding into the state coffers and they reiterated one after another their beliefs that the people should share in the proceeds.
