Mahboula Residents Decry 3-month Total Lockdown
To confront and control the spread of the coronavirus pandemic precautionary measures were applied by the government in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh and Al-Mahboula by slapping total lockdown on these two regions before Hawalli, Khaitan and Farwaniya joined them.
The lockdown of Jleeb Al- Shuyoukh was justified because this region is infested by bachelors who live in squalid conditions but Mahboula differs greatly to a large extent because people in these areas live in buildings and complexes rented by companies for their workers.
These complexes and buildings are occupied by Europeans and Americans and people of various nationalities who are involved in what is called high-end occupations and some of them work for the American army and for oil companies.
The total lockdown of the region has harmed those residing in the area as a result of the lack of services, according to the people living in the region. Some of the residents in Mahboula stated that after three months of total lockdown they feel they were unjustly treated for many reasons, especially since those residing in the region are a large group of foreigners holding prominent positions, in addition to the Kuwaitis who were treated like marginal workers, as some of them described the situation.
They stressed Mahboula lacks basic services such as a cooperative society and said one of the schools was chosen and equipped as a branch of a cooperative society that does not meet all the needs of the people like the cooperative societies and the supermarkets in the neighboring areas.
They also claimed the region lacks cooking gas cylinders center and other family supplies. Many foreigners, especially Americans and Europeans, spoke of their desire to move to another area immediately after a decision is issued to lift the total lockdown of Mahboula.
