Excitement As Saudi Arabia Legalises Public Sale Of Alcohol by ShoeGetSize: 2:26pm On Feb 11 |
In a surprising turn of events, the conservative streets of Riyadh, the capital city, witnessed the grand opening of "Desert Spirits," the first-ever alcohol shop in Saudi Arabia. The air buzzed with a mix of curiosity and skepticism as locals, adorned in traditional attire, gathered to explore this novel venture. Owned by a forward-thinking entrepreneur Ahmed Al-Mansoori, the shop boasts of a carefully curated selection of international and local spirits, all compliant with the newly introduced regulations allowing the sale of alcoholic beverages to non-Muslim expatriates. As the doors swung open, the scent of incense mingled with the aroma of aged whiskies and exotic liqueurs, creating an atmosphere both unprecedented and surreal. A symbol of shifting norms, "Desert Spirits" sparked conversations about cultural evolution, reflecting the changing dynamics within the Kingdom. However even though the shop will be open only to non-Muslim diplomats, many hardline members of Saudi Arabia's council of Islamic scholars fear that it is first step to wider availability of alcohol in the kingdom. 2 Likes |

EKONGKING:Your problem is complicated. You think the right to insult belongs to you alone. Now, you have thrown insult to a region who neither gives a rat ass about you nor your existence. But if this same insult is returned in the right proportion, you go on rampage that everyone hates igbos. Because you think it is you alone that should insult while others should praise you. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Saudi Arabia has been diversifying from oil gradually and it was only a matter of time that alcohol restrictions would be lifted. With their drive for tourists and sports development, their hard core posture was on a shaky foundation. MBS will go down in history as the crowned prince to liberalized the Saudi society. Watch this space as the mandatory hijab and Morality police becomes a relic of a circularized Saudi Arabia 4 Likes 1 Share
