The music video above is dedicated to the people of Kuwait from the expats of Kuwait (the remaining expats who still haven’t been deported). The video features a bunch of talented expats including a few I know like Monstariam and Basil Al Hadi. Check it out above. [YouTube]

Why did you say “from the expats of Kuwait (the remaining expats who still havenโt been deported).” You speak as if all Kuwait is doing is deporting expats.
It’s a joke based on the fact that kuwait seems to want to deport expats for random reasons (like illegal barbecuing) so don’t get your panties in a bunch.
That was a rumour or proposal that was sensationalized by the media. Kuwait isnt a single entity with unified officials who share the same views. Government officials and MPs have different views when it comes to expats. Don’t judge an entire nation by the views of some municipal officials.
who here is judging an entire nation? not me. if you don’t have a sense of humor or you don’t find my jokes funny its not a big deal.
rumour!? are you mental? Im an expat and i can tell you that people who were instantly deported – no trial no nothing straight to the airport with their families left behind in kuwait. Dont make up stupidities just to be patriotic –
Until Kuwait announces a law to deport expats for random reasons, you’re just blowing hot air
The sensationalist media is blowing everything out of proportion, proposals are not laws. Proposals are merely proposals.
they’re ridiculous proposals and i’m poking fun out of them. no harm in that so get over it.
It was a funny joke about something that deserved to get made fun of.
lol
Yeah. Wtf, get a sense of humour dude.
Take a chill pill or a panadol or something.
Great music video, thank you expats for making it
From a Kuwaiti to expats. You are one of us <3. A document doesn't make you less of a Kuwaiti.
You live here
You contribute here
You're welcome here
Society based on ethnicity will fail, accepting people for their contributions to society creates the best civilizations ;). Just my opinion.
Thanks, it is good to know there are very few people share the same view. I have lived in Kuwait for more than 20+ years now. My family has struggled through the invasion too.
But I have to point out the obvious. Kuwait (I mean the government) has become increasingly hostile towards expats especially from India. In light of the recent diplomatic row regarding maids, the situation is only getting worse. Soon we will have to leave.
Ya, that comment was not necessary.
Ya, thats Kuwaits goal: deport all the expats!
Com’on Mark we dont need anymore pessimism in this country!
+1
must be easy being optimistic when you’re a kuwaiti. not so easy for a lot of us
Whoever produced and engineered this song could have at least pitch-corrected those who can’t sing.
Yep i also felt offended by this comment u should remove it Mark
i’m not going to remove shit. its a joke and if you don’t find it funny you don’t find it funny, doesn’t mean I have to censor myself just to make you happy.
#idowhatiwant
if you dont find it funny then GTFO of the internet.
see what i did there!?
hmmm interesting – only arab expats! Although not surprising!
Shut up Ahmad…it’s a sense of humor which is acceptable considering the draconian laws kuwait puts on expat…it’s not just deportation but also Laws on driving license,hospital timings, visa laws banning visits for even families of certain nationalities!do you want me to mention more or are you going to accept your country has a seriously racist inhumane policy towards expats…kuwaits policies towards expat is one of the most racist in the whole world…
Remember by having racist attitude you think you can escape but to you can’t escape Allah`s wrath..Racist societies have been punished from within, history is witness to that
Yeah.
*stands behind mark and gestures hand going into pocket of my hoodie, harlem / campton style *
Thank you very much expats who made this song and video ๐
You guys are awesome ๐
I think it’s more like the Arab expats for Kuwait. It would make so much more sense if it also featured or at least showed a face or two of Asian expats which make such a large population here.
Geez, no one is ever satisfied with anything. Mark was making a sarcastic joke which is his right considering it is HIS website, since when is everyone so sensitive? Then we have the people upset that the video doesn’t feature expats of non-Arab nationality, go make your own video then. What a bunch of Debbie Downers! Bloggers work day and night trying to bring interesting things to people and this is the thanks they get? Just the other day everyone was praising and congratulating Mark on his website anniversary and how quick you all turn when something he wrote ruffles your feathers.
People need to relax and be grateful for his public service.
Wow! That sounded sooooooo ironic coming from you
crazy – shut up yeah?! The smell of turd is strong from you.
My comment was based on the fact that Arab expats are able to integrate into mainstream (read upper) society here unlike a lot of asian expats. no doubt you will have plenty of examples of why this is not the case and i applaud you for already knowing people who are the exception. WELL DONE!!!!
it wasn’t a complaint against the video – it’s just not representative of expats per se – its representative of arab expats. Now you may return to being a twat of the highest order!
This is weird. According to expats on 24am, they hate Kuwait.
correct. a lot of us do. point!?
good job ๐
lool nice touch ๐
I love drama.
It is strange that Kuwaitis still say ‘Expats’ and ‘Immigrants’ about people who were born and raised in Kuwait. smh
