I lived in Kuwait in Al shaab area. 2 min walk from beach off gulf Street. I happened to be in England for my summer holiday when Iraq invasion happened. Never went been back since. I was only 8 years old. I loved living in Kuwait so much, was a great place to be in 80s. Makes me sad to think how my life would of turned out if I still lived there. Thank you for this video, it put a tear to my eyes
I'm an Arab-American expat around your age- we ended up going back after the invasion and I'm still here (back and fourth though). The older generation looks back at the pre-invasion years with nostalgia. These days we have fractured and vision-less leadership, a highly-materialistic population, local animosity/hostility towards expats, Islamist politics (a bikini-clad woman at Salmiya beach would get a visit from the police), skyrocketing corruption, a pathetic public healthcare system, amongst other negative changes. It's not all bad though; the local startup scene is very much alive, shopping and restaurant options put many countries to shame, we have all sots of shiny new sky scrappers. Consider visiting sometime, but know that the country you left behind is long gone.
@@melaniehenderson4756 but compared to the 80s it's less acceptable. In 2010, the National Assembly tried to ban wearing bikini but the court declared the law unconstitutional. Nevertheless since then very few woman wear bikini
Oh my God, the memories are flooding back. I had the best diverse friends ever in my life then as a kid in Kuwait. We had a "BMX gang" riding around the neighborhood after school, checking out buildings under construction at night with torch lights, making up stories...
I am an Indian, born and raised in Kuwait. I was born after the invasion and it is always nice to see how Kuwait was before 1990. Nevertheless, I love Kuwait. I left Kuwait and I am in Australia now, but I will never forget Kuwait. I love Kuwait and I hope to return some day. God bless Kuwait.
Wonderful Kuwait. Indian, born and raised in Kuwait. Parents came in the early 50's. I lived in Salmiyah. Studied in Indian School. Beautiful place. Went back to India in 86' and now live in Canada. Kuwait is in my blood. Didn't know the difference between any nationality... we were all one. Played Football (Soccer) between the spaces of the buiding. Ate excellent Shawarma from Salmiya center. Had only 100 fils then... went around with friends to cassette shops... Sultan center was a posh place then... Great Video... reminds me of good ol times...
God, I am a daughter of the country. I was young, about 10 years old. My mother used to take my brothers and I on an outing at that time. We used to go on outings in the old Kuwaiti market, called Mubarakiya Market. Even now, when I am older, I go to this market and remember my childhood, and my soul dances with joy between the past and the present. Thank you, owner of the channel. My greetings to you from Kuwait.🇰🇼❤️🌹
Many people said keep your memories in your head , because if you turned back you'll find everything is changed, so keep your beautiful memories, may God bless Kuwait and everyone who lived there.
انا عشت تلك الفترة في الكويت كانت زهره الخليج سبحان مغير الأحوال سبحانك يارب كم احن للكويت وأحبها الله يديم الكويت أمنه مستقره !!! والله العمر يركض حلم قصير !!!
As an Indian-born who resided in Kuwait since 1999, and lived long to see this place as of 2018, I'm now in fourth year of college in the States, I find it fascinating to see footage of late-80's Kuwait. And I was surprised that some of the buildings, such as the Kuwait Regency Palace, still remain in present day.
حتى السعوديه ادخلي ع مقاطع قديمه تحصلينها نفس الشي سقيمه انتي ماتعرفين الا تسبين ذا سلاح المتخلفين والهمج وبعدين الكويت صغيره مررررا وموقفه تطور وعمران من الثمانيات نفس ماهي للحين فارقي
Thanks for sharing this video. My family and I came 1976 from Germany to Kuwait. Unfortunately we had to leave during the Iraqi invasion. Kuwait was our second home. Was that Messilah Beach?
Wow! Coś pięknego! Zetknięcie się z taką metropolią w porównaniu z prl-owską rzeczywistością to był prawdziwy szok! Czy leciał Pan do Kuwejtu prosto z Polski, i jeśli tak to loty były wykonywane samolotami iljuszyn 62? Zapewne bilet w tamtych czasach był równowarty kilku miesięcznym pensjom w Polsce.
Thank you so much for this video, got back so many memories, I was born here in 1968 Kuwait City where the KPTC bus depo stands now, and moved to Salmiya at the age of 5 years, I was reliving my child hood again in your video.
Was born in sharq raised in salmiya.. studied in salmiya had a reali great time i was born in 1987 i miss old kuwait realy want to get in contact with old contacts from all over
اهم شي اللي يفترض انه يرقص في الدقيقه الاولى يطقطق على ربعه و هم يحسبونه فنان و ما فيه يوتيوب و الا دش ذيك الايام عشان يشوفون و يعرفون ان خويهم نصاب ههههههههه
O God, it took me back in 80's my area behind Al Hamra building . What a beautiful child hood with my bicycle & collecting GirGian in the month of Ramadan. cycling every evening . lovely memories thanks God.
This's a proof for who still thinking Kuwait has no streets. no streets means no buildings. I've been asked several times on that question and the problem is it's still until today. Thank u so much boobalisa.
Nice video missing good old days spend in Q8 one thing for sure this soil got lots of Prosperity if u made any money from this soil it will last long god bless Kuwait and Kuwaiti citizen
Thank you so much for uploading this video which just revived a lot of memories in me!! Kuwait was and is the best place on earth i can't wait for vacation to go back there
My father had a camera at that time, I wish if he caught on camera all the places we visited in kuwait specially Abu halifa where we lived ..oh i miss those days 😔

بكل بساطه...الشوارع كانت فاضيه نوعا ما لان الوافدين كانوا اقل. واحد الى واحد تقريبا مقارنه بعدد الكويتيين انذاك. و الكويتيين كانوا اهل الديره تقريبا مضاف اليهم شوية مجنسين. حاليا الوافدين ثلاث اضعاف و الشعب بعد الغزو صار دبل بسبب التجنيس العشوائي.و النتيجه بلد يحتلها الفساد و النهب و الانحلال الاخلاقي و انعدام القيم. ومانقول الا حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل باللي سويتوه فينا و بهالديره
mann jack يا ريت ماتعممش على الاقل المصريين ما سرقوا البنوك و البيوت و المحلات ايام الغزو انا اتولدت و عايشه غى الكويت بحافظ و زعلانه عليها أكثر منك و اعتبرها ديرتى الثانية بس الحكومه بخيله كل شئ بصير بالجهود الذاتيه و الكويت تستحق تكون احسن من دبى لكن مالكم سالفه
Noticed on video 0:09-0:11 that is an idea place for a paddle wheel type lighting sytem generated from natural currents that run twice in a 24 hr period time frame. That might could produce light that would show in the dark when the fish are eating on the local insects.. Sorry for the No show on Last Boat show. had some ideas on fishing. Hope they did good on the shrimping. Those Kuwait shrimp are Huge and well worth the cost. The vacum packing system will preserve the fish. Semak Raul.
أحلى شي إللي بيرقص ديسكو هههههههه ، كانوا أيامها بيحضروا حالهم علشان منافسات الديسكو بالأعراس ، الله يرحم لما كان الديسكو قمة الإنحلال الأخلاقي والميوعة في هذيك الأيام ، هههههههههه بيرقص ديسكو وشنبه أطول منه
الكويت كانت سابقة كل دول الشرق الأوسط هذه الأيام و كانت كدبي حاليا، و لكنها تدمرت بعد الغزو العراقي إلى يومنا هذا و ظهرت صفات شعبها السيئة العنصرية و لن تعود لسابق عهدها
بالعكس احنا شعب انساني جداً و رحيم و متسامح على عكس ما يطلعه الاعلام للناس و طبيعي الاعلام يحب يظهر السئ لان هذا اللي راح يثير الجدل و يطلع ( ترند ) احنا اكثر شعب محب للخير و العطاء بدمنا

I'm originally from Afghanistan but I was born in Kuwait and lived there until I was 8. I have a lot of good memories living in Salmiya.
Great family you have , thanks for treasuring those moments...it's like time travelling.
