Im reporting this blog for Anti-Kuwait!
The boys at national security will be coming soon !XD
ITS A JOKE CALM DOWN
Gotta give credit for trying.
even the elevator doesn’t sit level with the pavement and the button is too high.
It is a misunderstood photo!
This elevator takes the handicapped people from basement level to this ground level (as what the photo shows!). If William didn’t understand, Kuwaitiful didn’t understand, Mark you should understand.
I can say now blogger-fails!
AAM
duh, we know that. the issue here is the steps to get to the elevator.
and now you are famous loooool
-1.
Regardless from where to where is taking the people you still have to get in or out from the elevator. And as FYI highlighted the elevator is not flushed with the floor nor has an access ramp to get in or out; not to mention that you have to “fly” with the wheelchair over the two big steps to reach to the elevator.
So my friend it is a FAIL and you FAIL too.
Whatever the case is based on comments above, Arabella itself is horribly planned and executed. It’s a massive project with only one point of access for entry/exit, a poorly-accessible parking with narrow spaces, low ceilings and insufficient capacity, a valet area for less than ten cars, bathrooms with substandard finishing and plumbing and nonexistent signage in the elevator lobbies and staircase landings.
For a project that cost so much and took years to put together, I would’ve expected much more.
“..I would’ve expected much more.”
Did you forget where we are? Stop expecting anything.
We’re in Kuwait, which has the highest budget surplus of any Gulf state

Clearly, Kuwait is doing something right otherwise we wouldn’t have the strongest fiscal position in the GCC.
That’s the kind of attitude that lets people get away with this shit, shame on you
+1 the infrastructure could have been much better
This is not funny… It’s pathetic…
they tried.. 😛

i’m so ashamed
