Grill the PM for Music Classes!

“We will not allow our schools to become centres for graduating dancers,” said Hayef

Seated above, this hipster has decided to grill the prime minister for making music classes compulsory in schools in Kuwait.  What happened to the education system itself, or the health care system, or the mishref waste plant mess? It must be a talent finding the most irrelevant issues to unsettle your National Assembly and country. How about sitting down during the national anthem and texting?

    Its funny how extremists always come up with the dumbest things.

    A day in the life of Hayef :

    Driving on the way home Hayef turned on the radio in his car, but to his surprise what he was hearing was not the station he usually listens to! It was the Song “Single Ladies” by Beyonce he quickly pulled up the windows and stared to sing along to his favorite tune, when all of a sudden whilst parked in front of his home his friend opened the door and ask “Hayef what are you doing!?” Hayef shocked that his friend witnessed his hidden secret started to think and quickly came up with the first thing that was in his head ” What what what am i doing… Im listening to this devil music that our kids are listening too!” his friend ” and why are you doing that!?” Hayef replied ” because im going im going to remove this from our schools so that our children dont become devil worshipers!!!”

    thank you for reading “A day in the life of Hayef ( The devil slayer ) ”

    Great timing whoever took that picture. This should be posted and plastered all over the papers. The thing that bothers me about extremists is that they don’t back up most of their claims with any proof. It always tends to be out of spite. “Music is the devil”, “music makes people hate their religion”, etc. I wish for once that they would take a look at the many practicing Muslims and realize that they do listen to music, whether it’s Um Kalthoum, foreign or on the TV.

    Don’t get me wrong, everyone has the right to speak their mind and fight for their beliefs. That’s the beauty of Kuwait. But please, if you decide to do so, come up with hard facts first. One fact about music implemented in school systems is that it helps children pay attention to detail, something it seems many kids lack in this A.D.H.D (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder), Sony PSP, Nintendo DS era.

    Bring your facts to the table without the whole drama please. For the sake of Kuwait.

    The whole political situation keeps getting more frustrating with each passing day! It seems every area of life in Kuwait is decaying, and in need of immediate attention to find a solution, yet these idiots are concentrating on mediocre issues!

    What happened to instilling creativity into our children? Or encouraging teenagers to pick up music or art as a creative outlet instead of wasting time driving around in cars and in malls? When did teaching music become the reason behind schools “graduating dancers.” His reasoning is so absurd!

    (Perfect picture btw!)

    this picture was plastered over all the newspapers, but like you can imagine nothing really happened. so many lost talents, so many lost opportunities.

    Its sad where we stand now. The political situation is getting worst by the second, the economy is falling apart, the education & health is a disaster!!! No one is doing anything or wants to take action in the time we need the most attention and solutions. We concentrate on such stupid, tiny and nonsense issues, when having major problems in the country that need to be fixed and looked at. PLEASE HELP….we need you..coz we love you!!!

    If this was a US Senator or Congress man, he’d be chastised in the media, and unlikely to win re-election. Here in Kuwait, he’s viewed by his constitutes as a rebel and respected and re-elected. There is something extremely wrong with the fabric of our democracy, its things like this that make me want the entire parliament to shut down Not only doesn’t anything productive come-out of it, but gives idiotic politicians a venue to showcase their nonsense.

    DMQ the economy will never blossom as long as you have uneducated agenda-driven politicians running the parliament. The whole point of a parliament is to represent the country and the people’s interest.

    Its a very sad state of affair, we have no options, our bureaucracy is ridiculous with everything we have to go through, the problem is that not just one thing is broken, everything is broken and if one man tries to fix it then everyone attacks him for doing it!

    Did you mean hipster or hamster, i was a little confused anyway a hamster in my vocab

    • http://uptill1.com Triple-A

      Bader : no i meant hipster. its a slang word. according to urban dictionary :

      Someone who thinks that they are being “special” and “unique” for liking some underground bulls*** no one else cares about. And they pointlessly look down on people who don’t know anything about indie culture, because that’s the only thing they know anything about. They’re quick to call the rest of the world conformists when in reality, they are the ones conforming by partaking in a “too cool for mainstream so i am going to reject it by looking and acting like a grungy ass****” way of life only to seem uber-fashionable. They just end up looking like idiots
