wait before I start, i think i need to watch out my words as from today
we just talked about AlAssaf, and now he id fired
but do not think he is satying at home now?
no sweetheart, he is going to work for the government until you die
AlAssaf never stayed at home or retired
He is a minister of finance since 1996
since MBS was standing in line in the school cafeteria
did he stand in line in the school cafeteria?
20 years as a minister of finance
20 years many ministers fall except for him
and when they released him from his position in 2016 he became minister of state
the he was arrested in 2017 in the Ritz Carlton for corruption
and he satyed as minister, people were saying this is his end
very soon, they released him and gave him back his job as minister again
He is a minister of finance, of course he has CDs
no this is too much, many people have CDs
anyways, they released him from his position again in 2018
do you think he satyed at home or retired? NO
they gave him a position as minister of foreign affairs
and today after one year, the government changed his position from minister of foreign affairs to a minister of state
Imitating MBS: Saud, turn on , turn off, turn on , turn off, turn on , turn off
Say It and Walk
speaking of turning on and off
two days ago, Davos in the desert ended
no not this, yes this one
and our guy thinks you could get out of trouble and ask for foreign investors' money and they will come
but the western media that was chasing him and now knocked him
Bloomberg , CNN, New York Times others announced boycott of the conference
because Saudi Arabia is country that violates human rights
don't listen to the current drum beatings
unfortunately ,the foreign investment numbers are low
most of the audience in the conference are managers looking for a government contracts
they want to milk them and leave
as our friend who milk 45$ milliard from MBS in one hour
speaking of milking, few days ago trump said he milked MBS in 35 seconds according to Washintgon Post
the Japanesse said he milked 45 milliard, average 1 milliard every 60 second
et's bring calculator, and assume that Davos conference was 3 days 6 hours daily
this is 18 hours, 1080 minutes of milking
let's say may Allah compensates our budget
some people look at us as if we were spiteful and gloating
we critcized only, and laugh at MBS way of running the country because we have personal issues with him
let's see what did he do in Davos conference last year
the government contracts signed with foreign companies was about 56$ milliard
while the foreign investment during 2018 was 3.5$ milliard only
what did you understand from all that?
this means contracts we signed in Davos conference most of them were companies took our money
and gave us nothing
the main goal of the conference is to bring foreign moneys for invest in your country
and provide jobs and don't rely on oil
we failed in achieving this goal
someone ask why did we failed to achieve that?
Say It and Walk
the foreign investor is looking for a safe area to invest his money
and we new that the capital is cowered
you decleard war against Yemen and instead of winning it reflected negatively on you
and their fires reached your country
(Bombing)
how do you want the foreign invistors to trust you while you took
the most rich businessmen in your country and jailed them in Ritz Carlton for corruption
when you are the worst corrupter and not telling how and where did you
spent the money you took from them
how do you want to convince an invistor to come to your country
while until now you don't have clear reason to tell your people about cutting the relations with Qatar
you cut relatives relationship and made it hard for people to come to the Two Holy Mosques
destroied the mutual trade between the two countries overnight
you want to make sure? ask AlMaraei
f you are acting like mindless teenager while you are provoking by a tweet
as the Canadian embassy tweeted about Saudi Arabia, and because of that
Saudi Arabia cut its relations with Canada and pull back thousand of students
who you spent milliards over them, how do you want the investor to trust you?
we said you did change, then you go to a country like turkey
when you had some issues with them
and commit the dumbest assassination operation in the modern political history
people said it was a mistake and grow up and listen now
then you hacked the richest man in the world and threats him with his d*** picture
then come and ask why didn't we sucssed in bringing foreign investors to our country
Say It and Walk
a news was spread in international sport
Mohammed bin Salman decided to buy Manshester united
this time he raised his offer to 5$ milliard because in the first two times his offered was refused
someone might ask why did MBS decided to buy Manshester united specifically?
I was looking for a reason that made Mohammed bin Salman to provide another offer to buy this club
I think Mohammed bin Salman was watching championship league and saw Manshester united
versus Paris san Jerman last year, and Paris san Jerman as you now a Qatari team
imitating MBS: who is this red team that beat the Qatari?
Manshester united? is this the one Bin Zaid have?
no one have it? let's buy it then even if they didn't have super stars
if they have Nimar and De Maria then we have men, capable men
we can win within 20 minutes of the game
we will not wait to play on loose ball
we will transfer the fight to their field now and immideataly

Kusama Pumpkin is new painting MBS bought according to Bloomberg report
the newspaper that was close to MBS
this painting worth 4$ million , people get mad but me i see it as a positive thing
look at the half full of the cup, the previous painting cost 450$ million this one cost 4$ million only
an easy season
but let's be honest, his IQ increased
the one before was fake, but this one is original
and why are you mad that he wasted 4$ million on painting? he still didn't harm anyone?
Say It and Walk
the country is in shock with Turki AlSheikh project which is MBS project in the first place
our traditions will be respected
our customs, tradition and religion is clear
we will not bring anything against those basics
they all within our agreement but this is us
we were like this 30 or 40 years ago
we have been kidnaped for a while but thanks God we are back
since the first day of the entertainment events especially after Riyadh season started
and everyday we are having a new crisis
Turki AlSheikh brought DJ, red lights and music
what should you do in this case? dance? they will put you in jail
tell them this is forbidden in Islam? they will put you in jail
say this is shame and not us, they will put you in jail
please someone tells us what to do? public prosecuter
your common curtesy law based on what?
if it based on Islam, this is all has nothing to do with Islam
f it is based on custom and tradition, we know it is in not
if it based on what is happening around the world, it is normal to see people dancing in concerts and events
public prosecuter looks like doesn't have anything to say
could someone please ask AlMoghamsi about what is happening
(AlMoghamsi program named {the well-grounded in knowledge})
a man asking: may Allah reward you well our shiekh a video gone viral to a girl
dancing in one of the events organized by the entertainment commission
what is your comment on that sheikh?
imitating AlMoghamsi: may Allah save us, about dance it has two opinions,
if it was a belly dance and muslims girls were wearing Hijab this is fine
but if it was a western dance with some twerk this is forbidden according to the public opinion
this girl may Allah forgive her (crying)
her dance was not belly or western
especially when she shake it as in shake it up dance which is forbidden by unanimously
but if the muslims' Guardian may Allah protect him see that there is a benefit from this to Teasing enemies
so Persia stop saying roll over us with their attacks
then it is Halal and consider Jihad dance, Allah knows
a man: may Allah treat you well our Sheikh
do you know that no one represent Saudis now like this man
Poor man he doesn't know what to say, his fuse is blown
his mind hung
when he first said welcome, he represent us going to entertainment events
then he said Allah is the greatest with zoom toward the mosque
Allah is the greatest
please go away, go away, one minute
his conscience feels guilty, something is not right
then he tried to support Mohammed bin Salman but his subconscious reminded him
and said ( our guy ruined it, he messed it)
turn the picture, he messed it, he ruined it
we are living in a huge Halloween
you have to dress up, change you identity and put on a new mask
but the problem you don't know which mask to put on
When? how? where?
like this guy! he doesn't know , should he give the Russian high five?
or say Allah is the greatest? praising MBS? or cussing him?
who are you? who are we?
and who are those? and those?
we are... I'm sick
Say It and Walk
arresting AlOtaibi's tribe prince after he criticized the entertainment commission
in few tweets, they took him and put hime in jail
criticizing the entertainment commission became a red line
this shows you that the government doesn't have a red line regarding anyone in this country
wether you are a religious, political or even social figures, or tribe's Sheikh
they will get you
not because you criticized one of the country foundation, no no
but because you criticized the entertainment commission
they took you and throw you in jail, is not this the tribes you scared people of them
and said they will come against you
cut and eat you
the tribe cave to the government despite the injustice
the tribe cave to the government despite the dissatisfaction
unfortunately, this is not the first incident
before one or two years, a tribal king was pull out
from Kuwait and bring him to Saudi Arabia
as if there was no value or consideration
as the country does want to offend not only the religious and political figures
but also to the social ones
(Music)
do you know who was the last one accused of being a foreign agent?
people of Lebanon,
there are bodies funding? who are those bodies?
I'm not accusing anyone now, I wish those who consider themselves as commanders in this movement
come out and explain to us, as they demand transparency
there are a fortune spent in some squares
there are some poor squares, but others floods with money and spending it
there are great opportunities
that is OK, come out and tell people the names of your donators
Nasr allah who takes money from Iran, ideologically follow them and believe in AlFaghih guardianship
came out and said to the Lebanese you are a tool in hands of foreigns
how can I deal with him?
when are you gonna stop this sh**?
Hong Kong has a revolution in protest at suppression law
the Chinese government said foreign bodies
Women rights activists demanding their rights, the Saudi government said foreign bodies
reformers in Iran refuse Mullahs' suppression, and Iranian government said foreign bodies
what should we do to deal with you?
anyways, the Lebanese revolution has a nice answer to this cheap accusations
I'm Lebanese citizen and I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
I'm Lebanese citizen and 'm funding the revolution
I funded the revolution
I funded the revolution
the truth, the beautiful Lebanon is finally standing together
turned from groups and sects to one unit
under Lebanon flag
after many years of differentiation that political opportunists took advantage of
turn it to a failed country that lives on debts and foreign aids
and above all this, there are no services
no jobs, rents increased, until those poor people suffocated
now we see right in front of our eyes an Arab revolution
with a national unity, accept differences and welcome refugees
a high political awareness, didn't believe the government empty promises
this revolution is a good example of the real and good nationalism
not the sick one representing by the government trolls
this nationalism originated from the people, to accept others
directed against the suppressive, tyrant and who in control of the country resources
we have nothing to do, except to wish this spirit to win
against the power in control now
and see another Tunis in the Arabian world
we need hope
(Music)
in developed countries there are parliaments the representing the poeple
a group talking about people's worries and demands
but in our authoritarian states we have nothing like this
please don't say we have Shura council
at the end, it is only a signature
but thanks God, the existance of social media made Twitter the people parliament
where they can demand rights, talk about worries and give their opinion regard the country policies
it provides a little space to take a breath instead of living in the real choking world
but do you really think the the tyrant will empty the platform for you?
forget it
he hired the electronic flies trolls, a group of citizens hired by the government
they gave them salary from our budget, to silence any voice they don't like
let me give you an example, hashtag #unemployed_saudi_gathering
this hashtag launched by a group of Saudi men and women who have bachelor or master degree
some of them have been looking for jobs for one, two or five years and maybe more
they believed that this vision will decrease the unemployment rates
as you know, the vision target is to reach 7% as unemployment rate in Saudi Arabia in 2030
without doubts, those programs will put us in a great place than we are already in, in 2020
anyway, it get worse as prices and taxes increased
people can't stand themselves
what did those youths do?
did they take guns and carried out terrorist operations?
NO! did they declare their opposition of the government?
NO! so may be they took money from Qatar and Iran like some poeple (smile)
No! simply, unemployed youths launched a hashtag to demand
their rights in a peaceful way
but the government sent its trolls
they accused who participate in this hashtag by treason, and the state security issued a statement
said this hashtag is a threat to the national security
can you imagine that? a hashtag threats the national security?
a weak and unsuccessful political system, women demand their right to drive, this is a threat to the national security
Sheikh asking God to reconciled hearts, national security threat
a journalist write in an American newspaper, national security threat
poor unemployed people asking for jobs, national security threat
it is one of those, either you love being suppressive
and use the national security to cover what you do
or you are being honest, then you not qualified to be in charge of the national security
if it is so weak
find a solution, you bothered us a lot
Say It and Walk
there was a man named Essam AlZamil
a citizen of this country
he always keen to increase awareness among the people
he keen to remind them of what is going on the country
he was the voice of a suffocated citizen
he was the voice of a citizen who demand his rights in a polite manner
most people were listening to his words
waiting for his tweets
waiting for his works and videos
where he was increasing the awareness without any instigation or rampaging
today, Essam is behind bars
Don't forget Essam
Say It and Walk
since the first day we decided to do a show, our country economic conditions were the priority
we talked about the general economic condition in general
and unemployment time bomb and the possibility of its explosion
as the number of people looking for jobs will increase in the next years
the truth is the numbers were really scary
wether it was talking about unemployed youths rate which reached 30%
or about 400,000 person who will enter the labor market
and comparing them with jobs the government and market are providing
which is only 70,000 jobs
this hashtag had launched and it showed us that the problem is already huge
not a time bomb will explode in the future
from the hashtag, we have seen a big segment of society with bachelor degrees but not find yet jobs fits their specialities
another are mad of the nature of available jobs
butcher, farmer and etc, no defects on those jobs
but it is undesirable
as we know, the hashtag was overwhelmed with blaming foreigners and accusing minister of labor by neglecting
and they all had to provide jobs to youths
but are they the real ones to blame of the crisis we are in?
first thing we have to understand is that Saudis used to prefer working in a government sector
which has light work and pay a good salary
but because of stealing, corruption and wasting, the government now has no money to hire Saudis as before
also our number are increasing
and this is so difficult to provide governmental jobs
now we are up to a huge change, the private sector
is now the main target, but what is actually happening in this sector?
without doubts
flooding the market with foreigners was an important decision in the Saudi market
when the government decided in the seventies to open the labor market for foreign workers
it was because the development projects at that time that accompanied the oil jump at that time
needed a great number of foreign workers
while many saudis were looking for governmental and professional private sector jobs
a handwork jobs under our hot sun and without a well-paid salary
is not a desirable work
what happened is cheap hand workers enter the market temporarily
but the truth is they never left
for so many reasons, listen to me for a little bit
Say It and Walk
first, the reasons that led us to bring foreigners at first place didn't change
hard work demand still on
while Saudis preferred the governmental jobs which has a good salary at that time
but all those jobs are under the sun e.g. building and road constructions and etc
anyway, second, because of the economic expansion at that time
we needed a hand workers to run factories and markets
some influential people, most of them from the royal family, found it
a gold opportunity to take advantage of this slavery sponsorship system
they use the visas system as a commodity
to buy and sell in the black market
with a specific price and its monthly income
this is so dangerous
imagine you were a businessman wanted to open a factory, and you need 1000 workers
and found yourself in a palace where you have to pay to millionaires for visas, an amount of money for each visa
so at the end you get the numbers of workers you needed
not only the corrupter visas dealer is the one who benefit from this
this same businessman is benefit from flooding the market with foreign workers, how?
because salaries depends on supply and demand rules, how?
this means the more workers you have, the less salary they will get
because competitive will get higher among workers
workers' salary in our economy reached 800 riyals
this means your costs will decreased, which means you will increase your profits
but this will effect whom? two groups
this poor worker who you are using it to increase your profits and the other one is Saudi's youths
who got fired from the private sector because of this low salary
even if you are a patriotic businessman and feels responsible of your own people
you can't trained and hired them with well-paid salary
Why? because it will cost you more then your competitors
who relies on foreign workers
tomorrow or the day after it, they will get you out of the market and declare bankruptcy
do see how one corruption leads to another?
the truth is not only the market conditions is the reason for not hiring Saudis in private sector
many businessmen have a negative opinion about their people
you find someone who honestly tells you
honestly, I don't want to saudize the jobs right now
I don't have time for Saudization right now
this way of thinking was prevalent
and still widespread, the question is, did you provide a decent job for citizens?
with a salary to live? and found his productivity became less?
or did you put him in a competition with cheap salary hand workers? in a job with a salary like your face?
and mad from his performance, as a businessman you suppose to understand him, he was born on this land
with a black gold under it
and he can't benefit from it, a person feels stolen and played
of course he will not give his best efforts
unless he feels appreciated and given a salary that met his expectations
what is so important now, after unemployment's problem escalated
and became a political and social threat
the Royal court finally decided to approve rules and policies
in an attempt to correct the problem, but until now the efforts success is limited
how? first, it will be hard for Saudis' businessmen to hire their own people and increase his prices in bad situations
second, after 50 years of total dependence on foreign workers
and getting Saudis out of the labor market
there is no one who could do the foreign workers kind of jobs
the problem, as you can see, has many complicated dimensions
now it became a dangerous problem to handle it
because of many years of corruption and unsuccessful planning
the cause of complication is due to different ways used to solve this issue
the government way is to fix the market gradually
to save it from breakdown and cause economic problems
while others think that it needs a radical, fast and powerful solution
one of those was the deceased abo Salah
Jamal called in his book (the Occupation of Saudi Market)
to sending away the foreign workers as fast as possible
even if it leads to an economic chaos
because he thought the consequences of sending away foreign workers less gruesome than being jobless for many years
May God gives you strength, first Jamal is the Saudi market is really occupied?
yes, the Saudi market is occupied
the solution of unemployment is to send away as much as we can of foreign workers
from Saudi market
even if it leads to wake up one day
and found the bakery shop and supermarkets closed
and the laundry shop, this is the solution
ministry of labor tries to increase the foreign workers costs
but it will take a long time
the solution I suggest is to work fast
in many ways to send away as much as we can from Saudi market
but you have noticed that we are talking about jobs that doesn't need certificates
let's talk about graduated people, 8% of men are unemployed
and more than 35% of women are unemployed
20% percent of them specialized in engineering, 20% of them
specialized in natural and computer sciences
30% specialized in business
while 30% of unemployed women specialized in social sciences
what is the problem here?
the problem is the private sector's jobs that requires medium and high qualification
is occupied by foreign workers
for example, we all know that IT jobs in Saudi Arabia are occupied by Indian engineers
about 300,000 engineers
those jobs are complicated
and demand a missing qualifications in Saudis whether those who are looking for jobs
or those who are already employed
here come the government job and how it spends the money
instead of trillions spent on arming, Yemen war, stealing, pumpkin, yacht and bullshit
is was better if they spent it on a huge training program
for example, like the scholarship program
to prepare Saudi men and women
for jobs that required high training and specialized skills
so the Saudis who work under foreigners in IT for example
or finance or other complicated jobs
will have the opportunity to go board and get professional training certificates
to qualify him to occupy the position and provide a job for another one to work under him
and so on, until we find jobs for unemployed
who can't find anything now
those radical solution requires public and governmental commitment
to start a huge national project
to correct 50 years of corruption, stealing and dumb policies
not blaming a minister of labor who can't do nothing
I don't know how do you understand our regime and how it works!
but the ministries could not do a lot
legislation, policies and controlling the market and economy
and spending money in huge national projects
all take place in the Royal court
with minister of finance coordination
you want to blame someone, blame the correct people
to put your hands on the wound, to know where is the wallow
to figure out where to fingered
instead of disastrous situations in the labor market
(conclusion)
fresh freedom
many twitters finished their tweets with this phrase
describing some naughties
who committed some excesses
in last entertainment gathering
the funny and shame thing
and crying thing
is describing the entertainment events freedom
as they know nothing of freedom except for dancing and shaking freedom
if this is the desired freedom
why did people in Syria, Egypt, Tunis, Bahrain, Iraq and finally Lebanon revenge?
didn't they have dancing freedom in their countries?
did they get enough with festivals and dance clubs?
or they went out to demand all kinds of freedom?
in US, in enslavement time
the farmer and fields owners force the slaves to dance every week
to start their week actively
so they work for more time
what happened?
people revenge
and became free one day and believe that freedom of dance
is not enough to raise civilizations
(poetry)
this is my word I say it and walk away, see you soon, be free
