Well, Mr. Jaber Al Sabah sure was a popular person, no doubt there... How many days did Saudi Arabia shut down when their king, Mr. Fahad passed away... & how many days mourning did they have ? hmm... 36 comments on this matter… mine being the 37th one… Well, Mr. Jaber Al Sabah sure was a popular person, no doubt there…

I get paid to study abroad, so why not? The amir have died, 48 kuwaities around utah have gathered, 18 more are driving across the states on the way to the 2 story villa 800m2 that we have rented for a shortstay (5 days). We have bought flags, and everything to show our patriotism. what makes me laugh is that you guys over there are fighting over the 3 days where u cant visit marina or any of that shit, i pity you guys, seriously.. I wish i was in kuwait, The amir was one of the people to be respected. I wish i would grow to obtain 1 of his features, we ask god to place him in heaven inshalla, may he rest in peace.

Any private institution can be at shutdown at its own accord. And alot of businesses shutdown out of respect for the amir. As it was previously stated he did a lot for Kuwait, and I personally think that he was a great man for this country, and other countries. People mourn this man because of the many good things he has done, and all the hardships kuwait went through was during his riegn. My company shutdown, and I spent most of my with my family, but the first day I was at Slaybikhat, and the second day at Bayan Palace in the morning. And thats the least I could do in my opinion for someone who has done so much. You do not realize how much he affected Kuwait. Alah yur7am ubu el kil.

Closing down for a few days to remember someone who has died is a great thing to do, and shows respect for his/her family. It is a chance for us all to take stock and think about our lives/our families/our mortality/what is important to us. Yes, we're all going to die at some point and although our respective countries will not go into a collective mourning when we do, it is good to have the chance to stop and think about someone and their accomplishments. I am only just beginning to understand how much the Amir did for Kuwait and many, many other people around the world, and how a 3-day mourning period seems such a small gesture to honour someone of his stature.
