Friend Aneeqa has joined us from Kuwait. Aneeqa is student of 1st year. She takes much more interest in the history of her beloved country but in the meanwhile she is disappointed that there is not given much attention or value to history of Kuwait in any academic sense. Students only learn a limited amount of local history in primary and secondary school, and professional historians, largely due to the country’s restrictive and unorganized approach to archiving records, conducts little academic research on Kuwait’s history. Aneeqa says that due to such academic deficiencies, young Kuwaitis must depend on a limited range of more unconventional sources in order to obtain any sense of historical awareness.
