Kuwait from a paramotor
Someone shot a video of Kuwait while up in a paramotor (powered paraglider). I don’t recognize the area but it looks beautiful. [YouTube]

the operator of paramotor… wasn’t he shotdown dead? i think they made it illegal to fly paramotors after him being shot down (notice how they didn’t not try to make it illegal to shoot people. lol!)
14. sam | November 10th, 2009 at 2:55 pm

I DO KNOW THIS AREA
our company has one of the projects there
i’ll tell u exactly where he was shooting bcoz i went there on a photography session for our chalets
بالضبط طيرانه كان على الخور المفتح واللاجون الصناعي في مشروع لؤلؤة الخيران بين الشاليهات الملك والمشاريع على الجزر الصناعية اخر الخور المفتح من جهة مارينا الخيران
طبعاً مجموعه كبيرة من الشركات اشترت الاراضي كبلوكات مساحة البلوك الواحد 1200م م وبنت عليها مشاريع عبارة عن مجموعه متشابهه من الشاليهات
قضيت يوم عمل كامل هناك أصور .. الماي أزرق عجيب والرمل ناعم جداً واللاجون والخور معمق من جهة المشاريع يوصل الى 7 م أو 9 م مو متأكده
مقابلهم الشاليهات الملك مع شاليهات الوطنيه
لحد الحين ما تسلمت الشاليهات لأصحابها من كل الشركات اللي هناك
so i really advise you all to take a tour there in this nice weather ..
i did .. again .. off work ..
:”)

If Kuwait was properly cleaned, maintained by the municiplaity and there were effective laws against litter etc, and properly ‘greened’ (palm trees) it would be a beautiful country. It really would.
22. AbeerA | November 12th, 2009 at 3:39 am
I wish Kuwait were greener! I really do, if everyone in kuwait were to plant just one tree and spend their time keeping their country beautiful it would be such a beautiful place! Not that it isn’t now, it would just be 10 times better!
Instead people seem to think if you’re picking up after yourself or actually doing SOME form of manual labour you’re lower class. sad. but true.

@ AbeerA – You can say that again. If you pick up your Mac or Burger King leftovers to throw in the trash, you feel embarassed because everyone looks at you as if you are mad not to let the poor Bangali clean up such a menial task.
Grow up people & it is not just the Kuwaitis I have seen leaving behind their waste. The other nationalities are worse than Kuwaitis these days …
