Sorry for not posting for a while, been working on many stuff lately and had no time to even blog plus i was forced to update my wordpress and then started having problems like logging in to the blog itself, and still having problems with the wordpress because of the conflict with the theme now. So if some have advice out there please help… anyways the last time i wrote anything it was before the credit crisis hit Kuwait and i know everybody is fed-up with the crisis talk so i will discuss something else. I always had a question lingering in my mind, and it only popped when the Shaikh al fally episode started; Does Kuwait Finance House (KFH) staff Shiites? I have been listening to rumors that it never does staff shiite and when you apply to the bank they tend to find out if you are, well i really wish this is untrue because to me the tipping point of racism in the world is when obama got elected, a country always attacked for their racism just elected the first African American president and we are still staff employees by their last names. If anybody knows at least one shiite that works in KFH ( a kuwaiti) that would be great for me to remove this horrible thought that we still in Kuwait think in such a way.

for one , they are privite sector they can hire whoever they want
from what i know , there is no guidelines as such , and you can’t force a company to hire someone they think isn’t qualified for the job
oh and i’m sunni and was rejected in KFH

Hi forzaq8, offcourse they can hire who ever they want but thats not the point Shiite are a minoraty but surley one or some should work at KFH, i mean they are all over kuwait working in all of its other banks except KFH.

do we know for a fact that none work at KFH ?
again if they are a minority it is not impossible statisticly that they don’t work there

forzaq8: offcourse i dont but i sure wish that i’m wrong, if the Kuwaiti population is spread around 30% shiites and 70% sunni, then yes using normal random statistical probabilities, there should be shiites there.

Think about it this way, would a shiite want to work for KFH?
Would he/she want a Salafi or e5wanchy for a boss?
I wouldnt think so
So if there are very few shiites working in KFH or none at all, wouldnt that be a major reason for it?

Chance: well you got a point but everthing has a first time, and how can you run a business that targets all religoius kuwaitis but then only employees a certain part of them?
