CLOSURE OF COMMERCIAL ESTABLISHEMENT AT 8PM IS SERIOUSLY AFFECTING ECONOMY

  • 06/07/2021

Kuwait City: Owners say commercial establishments closing at 8pm have repercussions on the economy. Losses range from 30 to 40 percent. Shopkeepers unanimously say the decision to close shops at 8pm is bizarre, irrational and does not produce any health benefits. In the summer, most of the trade takes place after 8.30 pm.


And considering the Maghrib and Isha prayer times, people go out at night for their needs. In addition, the opening of restaurants will be reflected in sales and commerce. Ali al-Rashid al-Badr, a member of the Supreme Council for Planning, also called for the inclusion of a member of the Corona Committee in the committee to prevent future decisions that could jeopardize the country's economy.
