Saudi National Day 23septemper 2011
I don't know about you, but for me this National day was the best National day I've ever seen !!!.
Last 4 or maybe 5 national days were a disaster, no one really knew how to celebrate on this day and no one even told us anything except that there will be a very strict actions for anyone color his car or dance on the cornish street or put any flags outside the cars.
This time the message was so clear to the population YOU CAN DO whatever you want!!! with your fingerprints all over it AS LONG AS you don't harm anyone around you.
Police officers were on foot in all main cornish streets both Dammam & Khobar, providing the citizens safety and also celebrating as a one community.
I raised my sound system UP!! with all that national songs in the middle of Al-Khobar cornish street in front of police officers and no one stopped me or say anything & people who were walking on foot near by my car start dancing and congrats me for the national day as if we were brothers and friends for a long time,SERIOUSLY!!! I have never seen Saudi's more close to each other and act like if they knew each other the way I saw them on 23septemper 2011.
Of course putting "Riot control" in the middle of the cornish was the best guarantee for everything to run smoothly on this day, but all the time I was there which is from 9 - 10 pm I've not seen anyone get on Riot control bus, I think Saudi's specially khobar citizens have learned that it's ok to represent your self in any way you want on national day as long as you don't hurt or intimidate anyone.
Everything I wrote is real,all happened in front of my eyes & not from my imagination!!, I know other parts of Saudi Arabia may had some problems on national day, which is still lack of communication between the government and the people, but that's not what happened in Al-Khobar Cornish
