A Court Case to Follow

December 26, 2007

Sometimes i hate how hard it is to follow court cases in Kuwait
because some of them are realy important

One Case that just came up is very important to all bloggers and webmasters in kuwait because it will set a precedent
From Alaan news site

وجهت النيابة العامة صباح اليوم رسميا للدكتور سعد بن طفله العجمي-ناشر جريدة - اتهاما بالإساءة إلى مؤسسي شركة أمانة، وذلك بموجب قانون المطبوعات والنشر رقم 3 لسنة 2006. وقد دفع الدكتور بن طفله بعدم اختصاص النيابة النظر في هذا الاتهام بناء على:
1. عدم الاختصاص القانوني لأن قانون المطبوعات والنشر لا يشمل النشر على شبكة الانترنت.
2. عدم الاختصاص المكاني لأن الحاوي الرقمي (السيرفر SERVER ) لموقع جريدة الان موجود في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية.

The Prosecutors office today morning officially accused Dr Saad Bin Tiflah al Ajmee - the publisher of al alaan - an accusation of abuse toward the Amana company founders , under the press & publishing Law of 2006 , Dr Saad Claimed that Prosecutors had no jurisdiction to consider this accusation for these reasons
1- Lack of legal jurisdiction :The press & publication law does not cover online publishing
2- Lack of jurisdiction :The server which host Alaan online newspaper is in the USA

That would set a precedent for all us bloggers ( as far as i know , most blogs use Blogger or wordpress and some use private server neither of which are in Kuwait )

CNN = Racists ?

December 18, 2007

Maybe not shocking to some , but i was shocked while reading one of their latest article

it was about ” 101 Dumbest Moments in Business ” for 2007 and while checking it out i see this

CNN

86. Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin-Talal
Fly the I’ll-join-the-mile-high-club-
if-I-damn-well-please skies
Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin-Talal buys his own Airbus A380, paying more than $320 million for a “flying palace.”

So why they consider him dump ? because he bought a Plane ? i don’t see them calling Richard Branson dumb for buying more than one …

2007 Kuwait Car show , why the focus on women ?

December 11, 2007

So me and couple guys went to the Kuwait Car Show 2007 , i was planning on replacing my car sometime soon ( mostly in the next 6 months ) so i went to check whats new and price ranges

Something realy strange i noticed this year , the excessive Usage of booth babes in this Show
It seemed as if every Company had some women who her sole duty is to look pretty and know how much the car is worth
