Public anger is growing over rising fish prices in Kuwait, with consumers calling for a boycott of fish purchases to pressure traders to bring prices down. A social media campaign urging people to stop buying fish has been gaining attention, with supporters calling for collective action against what they describe as excessive pricing and market exploitation.
Consumers participating in the campaign are urging people to avoid purchasing fish until prices become more reasonable. Supporters believe that a coordinated boycott could put pressure on traders and market operators while encouraging greater transparency and competition in the fish market.
The campaign comes amid criticism that government authorities and the Fishermen’s Union have not done enough to address rising prices. Supporters say they plan to continue the campaign in the coming days, hoping that reduced consumer demand will encourage prices to return to more affordable levels.
