Kuwait Traditions
Marriage:
Marriage is an important aspect of every Kuwaiti man and
woman’s life. As both are not obliged to be married to a person they don’t like
or feel uncomfortable with but they will eventually be forced to get married
when they reach a certain age which is from 28 to 30 years of age. In Kuwait
and Islam too it’s “OK” for a man to get married to four women even though
women do not appreciate the fact that her husband has feeling towards a
different woman then herself. When
Kuwaiti couples get married the husband must give his wife a present of 22
thousand dollars before the wedding ceremony so his wife would go and get ready
and buy what she wants and needs. However there are two ceremonies before the wedding which : are the first
family gathering of both the husband and wife families gather to meet and the
second one is the engagement ceremony where they both exchange rings. Finally
in the wedding the man enters the ballroom and walks toward his wife where she
awaits him on the beautifully designed wedding chair where he takes off her
white veil and kisses her on the cheeks. (No lip kissing!!)
Dowaniya:
Most Kuwaiti men spend their time in the “Dowaniya” where
they meet with their friends and have fun laughing, exchanging jokes and even
talking about some political issue in their country also other issues in their
life too. In the Dowaniya not only do friends come and meet even some
politicians go and pay a visit to many Dowaniyas to talks to the men their so
they would vote for him. Adding to that many families gather a huge amount of
money to build them a dowaniya in a well know area in Kuwait so it would stand
out and give their family a good reputation of owning a dowaniya in a fancy area
in Kuwait.
Clothes:
Both men and woman in Kuwait pay a lot of attention towards
what they wear and what brand it is. However Kuwaiti traditional clothes are
luxuries but many people do not know that. Kuwaiti men wear a Dishdasha which
is a long white colored dress looking outfit but what most people don’t know
that the fabric of the dishdasha is very expensive that may cost more than 5
thousand dollars just to buy it without sowing it. On the other hand
traditional Kuwaiti woman clothe consists of many fabrics put or worn on top of
each other along with gold and silver that gives it a more fashionable and
feminine look.

Today while I was browsing on youtube I notice something
that really get my attention . I really was shocked in the same time but I really
like it .
As you knew that almost all of our leader and president has
their our sharp character . they always talk so influence with high vocabulary . Also their life is so invisible , no one
knew how their house look like from inside , what they eat , where they spend
their vacation…etc however president Obama had change this role . he is the first
president that act like any other citizen . He goes to burger store and order
without any protection or bodyguards. He walk and talk to the citizen like he knows
them from a long time . he spend day in the park with his family , he play basketball
with his friend and stuff . please tell

In our modern world, we can see that the whole world is in development , every day , every hour and every minute there is something new because of the high technology revelation . In order of that governments are trying to develop and update their citizen so , they can compete with the most economical and developed country and If ask yourself how could government develop their citizens the answer would be by education . As you knew that Kuwait in one of the most economical and developed county today. Kuwaiti government is providing citizens with all of their needs like free health care , free housing and free education with paid scholarship to any country in the world .
First of All , As person who had been living and in Kuwait for almost 17 years I have to say that Kuwaiti citizens are so spoil because there is no other government provide their citizens with their need as much as Kuwait . Also families are giving and provide their children with their need too so children are so bless with what they have . I have to say that I was one of the children that had been given whatever he ask . However everything had been changed after I arrived to the united state . from my personal experience in the state I realized that life is much more than being spoil kid who owns whatever he want without giving effort . so my knowledge and understanding had change from limited knowledge to unlimited knowledge this is the first thing that I had learn when I came to the United State
Secondly , I had learn how can I depend on myself without asking anyone from helping me . because while I was in Kuwait I was sitting like ponich potato all day doing nothing . for example if I want to eat I just have to call the kitchen and talk to the cooker to cook what I would like to eat and it’s the same thing for washing clothes , fixing bedroom , cleaning and even driving car . However I had learn all this thing while I was in the United State because there were no cooker to cook or house maid to clean my bedroom or driver who take me to the ELC every morning . this is one of the thing I have learned because of being student abroad
Third , I had learn who can I communicate with people all over the world . As you knew when you live in place where all your friend from your same country and same culture you’re not getting anything new . although , staying with friends who understands where you came from and how you think is fun but its not useful. In the other hand if you have friend from different part of the world with different culture tradition and language you will feel like your leaning a lot of thing . So , from my experience I had learn who can I communicate with American , chiness , Korean and mangolyan without facing any problem
In consolation and in few words , living abroad had effect my in very positive way . Also there is alot benefit that had been added to my personality , knowledge and education . probably that’s why the Kuwaiti government and our present want us to study in the state because of high education , friendly people and the experience that we are getting . In my opinion and believes that studying in the United State changes every student attitude be making him a fixable persona how can be successful in his life
i would like to share with you how is life in kuwait and how we are living this video had been taken before the goverment allowed women to vote
thanks
