Destroying Beirut’s architectural heritage

By on April 20, 2010 in Lebanon

I saw this caricature by Armand Homsi in Annahar Newpaper on Sunday April 18th.

Illustrating what is happening in Beirut and various areas of Lebanon, this caricature is worth a thousand words. We don’t need skyscrapers with apartments that we cannot afford, just keep our beautiful Beirut as it is!

On Lebanese parliament members and their purchasing power

By on April 15, 2010 in What the fuck!

I was on my way to work this morning when I saw this Porsche Panamera with a parliamentary plate number.

Porsche Panamera

While members of the Lebanese parliament can afford such luxury car (priced at around $150,000?) from the salary that they work “really hard” to earn at the end of each month from the taxes we pay for (especially on gas and phone bills), the average employee in Lebanon can hardly afford a Kia Pianto, and of course cries his heart out when visiting Lebanon Motor Show.

Kroush El Wajeiha

I found this photo on Facebook last night.

Politicians football match

The bellies you see are not “Kroush El Wajeiha”, they’re just there to protect them from landing directly on their faces if they fall down in the field.

Oh and Nadim Gemayel is owned in the photo by the way! 😀

Lebanon Motor Show 2010 – The Photos

By on April 13, 2010 in Events, Photography

Few days ago I posted about the Lebanon Motor Show which is held at BIEL, downtown Beirut. So today is time to publish some photos from my visit!

I went there on Sunday evening, and there was a huge traffic on the entrance! So I advice you to go on weekdays, just don’t wait till the weekend (it ends on April 18th) because I’m sure it will be very crowded.

The show has 4 halls, 2 for showing cars, 1 for banks (where you can get good deal until the show ends), and 1 for car accessories. Overall it was nice and I recommend that you go check it out.

I leave you now with the photos I got, be careful if you’re a faint-hearted!
