Before I get into the heart of the matter, I would like to comment on an issue that was raised, even if this comment comes late, but the matter is, as they say, “still troubling me.” This is related to our wise government adding a clause to the draft law of the High Elections Commission requiring adherence to the rules of Islamic Sharia for female voters and candidates, and after the objection of some Representatives amended it and made women equal to men with these conditions, while acknowledging that this clause is useless because it is unconstitutional. Here comes the first question: If this clause was unconstitutional, why did you put it and create a state of gossip among the people? What are the legal rules you are talking about? Is it just the hijab? For example, if there is a veiled woman who does not pay zakat and does not pray, is this considered correct or incorrect? Also, there are some of the candidates who do not pray or fast, and some of them have no obligation? How can those in charge of the Commission evaluate and distinguish between them? Then, which doctrine will the Commission deal with? My fellow representatives, dear government, you must reform state institutions and improve services, education, and health. As for people’s freedoms and beliefs, you have nothing to do with it. I remind the representatives to those who lived in Kuwait in the past and who do not know the people of Kuwait well. The people of Kuwait, since their inception, are mostly people of prayer, worship, and moderation, and previously the “Brotherhood” tried » They invaded under the pretext of implementing God’s law, and one of their conditions was prohibiting cigarettes. The people of Kuwait confronted them and presented martyrs from the city and desert in the Battle of Al-Jahra. The people of Kuwait are people of moderation and tolerance. Charitable work started from Kuwait, and the hijab in its current form also started from Kuwait, without any guardianship or coercion from anyone or laws imposing this on them, nor by imposing religious institutes in every neighborhood in order to create a religious society. It is more important, dear representatives, that you stress The Ministry of Education stresses the need to pay attention to the Arabic language, as this is more important, as many of our students cannot read or write, and this is a fact, and without that, all your laws are useless. We are with a civil state and a people who are religious and conservative by conviction, not by the rule of law, tolerant and reconciled with others, and not with a religious state and a people that have failed. I return to another proposal from another group of our esteemed representatives. That group wants to seize the votes of voters and, consequently, transfer control of the state to them. Their proposal to distribute 20% of the profits of sovereign funds to citizens equally at the end of each fiscal year is something difficult to accept, and the proposal was not The second is from another group in the best condition. Our friends want to legislate life imprisonment for anyone who embezzles more than 100,000 dinars. Here I say to my dreaming brothers, what about the one who embezzles 99,000? What will be the verdict on him? This law of yours, as was reported, may be interpreted to mean that we will punish the big thief, but as for the small thieves, there is no blame on them, and those who receive bribes from citizens in exchange for completing their transactions, which are essentially legal, are these people free of the pen, as they say? Some members completed it and demanded that the trial sessions of the accused be transferred. Regarding public money issues on radio and television, here we must stop at the word “accused” and ask those who proposed the proposal: How many of the accused were found innocent? And to these people, their dignity is restored as a result of their defamation during their trial? I believe that there is a legal principle that says that “every defendant is innocent until proven guilty.” How I wished that you would consult with those specialized in the penal law before you put forward such strange suggestions. Of course, there are some funny suggestions that have been put forward, the funniest of which is the suggestion of greening and beautifying the new airport. I think it is better for you to ask: When will the airport be completed? So far, no one knows the actual delivery date, and secondly, this proposal, despite its importance, is within the jurisdiction of the municipal council and the responsibility of the Agriculture Authority, and it is more appropriate that you are talking about the plants and palm trees in our streets that died standing from thirst and neglect, and for your knowledge, what happened to those trees will happen to the trees. If the situation in the Agriculture Authority is not addressed seriously and effectively at the airport, what is also important is the dear brothers’ proposal to impose a fee of 100 dinars per square meter on those who own more than two houses. Frankly, such a proposal deserves the preparation and sorting of an article of its own.
Stay safe.
