Little Kenny: No Thing

Friday, April 29, 2005

Yup absolutely nothing to say, but a great desire to same something. Hmmph.

Whatever

Anonymous said...: Dear "The Little Kenny",

May I be so bold as to suggest that the next time you feel the need to say something, but you don't know exactly what it is you want to say, that you say something about Qatar? Perhaps something like this:

LAND: Qatar is a tiny country on the Arabian Peninsula. It is mostly flat with some limestone ridges. Vegetation is scarce.

CAPITAL: Doha

PEOPLE: The population of Qatar is 610,000. Almost 80% of that population is comprised of foreign oil workers. 40% are Arab, 18% Pakistani, 18% Indian, and 10% Iranian. The official language is Arabic but English is also spoken.

RELIGION: 95% Muslim

GOVERNMENT: Qatar is an absolute monarchy. Its current ruler is Hamad bin Khalifa ath-Thani who has been the Emir since June of 1995.

ECONOMY: Oil and natural gas reserves gives Qatar one of the highest per capita incomes in the world.

GEOPOLITICAL ISSUES: Qatar has had territorial disputes with Bahrain over the Hawar Islands and a maritime dispute with Bahrain. It is a strategically located country in the central Persian Gulf near important petroleum deposits.

Thank you on behalf of the Qatarneese people.; 5/01/2005 03:50:00 PM
