Amman a huge graveyard

Author: Alaa Abdelhaq

7 Oct

While coming back to Jordan on a plane feeling happy that you missed her, you start approaching Amman
you look down through your window, you say DAMN!
what a huge graveyard! dont you ever said that or at least got the feeling??
plus its a real graveyard for youth for dreams and hope, no wonder the majority wants to leave it and live some place else.
Me and many of my fiends wanna immigrate to a better places like Newzeland for an example!!
Hopefully it works someday!!

man … try to be positive … take a look to the other arabic countries … i don’t want to say that Amman is the dream land but try to think about your childhood in it, your friends, your school and all of these beautiful days that you have spent on it …. believe me you will feel better … in my opinion all what we are miss here is good economical level.

I have an idea, 1 nuclear bomb would do the job

Juggling your thoughts, my thoughts, our friends’ thoughts, and other people thoughts, all I can say from what I’ve seen, if living in Amman was like hell, once you get good cheese (Money $$$) you forget everything else.

“graveyard for youth for dreams and hope”, well it is right, the youth (us) have many dreams that we wish to come true, and we aren’t able to fulfill these dreams because of many issues, such as:
- Some companies do not help you at all to fulfill certain tasks, which you know you can do, this can negatively affect your self confidence on the long run.
- Not being able to take the risk of quitting our jobs and starting businesses because of the liabilities we have (almost since we are born) as working class people.
- Not being able to easily find support for starting businesses, since we are not (from the beginning, in universities lets say) prepared for business stuff like business plans, and other docs and preparations as well.
- etc…

I hope things well get better, light a candle and don’t sit in the dark!

Living a broad like in the west for instance, could also be so depressing. You could earn lots of money but you will be isolated as your social life would be nil compared to what you used to have in Amman. Also you will end up paying lots of tax as the case in UK.

I think Jordan requires loyal hard working people to make it better place rather than a nuclear bomb as suggested above. Loyal people that are proud to belong to Jordan. Unfortunately it s not the case in Jordan!!!
