Beware of Rakaz National Contracting and Trading Company !!

Posted by aslam on 4/28/2024 6:45:55 pm

i had the unfortunate experience of working for rakaz national contracting and trading company -fahaheel, kuwait, and it was a nightmare from start to finish. this company has a blatant disregard for its employees, cheating them out of their hard-earned salaries and resorting to intimidation tactics to claw back money they claim you owe them. trust me, stay away from this company. they don''t care about their employees at all. they cheat them out of their pay and use scary tactics to make them pay money they say they owe. it''s not worth it. avoid rakaz at all costs.

the management is utterly unprofessional and callous, showing no respect for the well-being of their workers. if you''re considering hiring rakaz for any contracting work, i strongly advise against it. not only will you be supporting an unethical company, but you''ll also likely face the repercussions of their mistreatment of employees.

to all contractors out there, steer clear of rakaz national contracting and trading company if you value your reputation and the happiness of your workers. it''s not worth the risk of getting involved with a company that treats its employees as disposable pawns in their profit-driven game.

Issue with Nissan Murano AC

Posted by ja on 4/24/2024 6:35:07 pm

i''m reaching out with a bit of a car trouble that i''m hoping someone might have some insight on. i''ve got a nissan murano, and lately, i''ve been having some issues with the ac.
about 22 months ago (around two years), i had to change the compressor because the ac wasn''t working at all. that seemed to fix the problem, but now i''m running into the same issue again. it''s just not cooling and blowing hot air.
i tried refilling the gas in the ac system, and initially, it seemed to work fine for about two days. however, after that, it went right back to blowing hot air. it looks like there might be a leakage issue somewhere in the system because upon checking, i found that there''s no gas left in it now.
when i had the gas refilled, the mechanic used some colored chemical to check for leaks, but unfortunately, it seems that wasn''t sufficient. he mentioned that he doesn''t have the proper equipment, such as laser-based glasses, to thoroughly inspect for leaks.
now the mechanic i consulted mentioned something about a possible problem with the talajat/condenser and suggested taking it to shuwaik for a closer look.
i''m a confused on what to do next. any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated, as climate is changing so getting difficult to drive day by day! thanks in advance for your help.

Concerns about Declining Rate of Applicants for Visit Visa to Kuwait

Posted by abu ameer on 4/22/2024 1:16:12 pm

dear iik readers,
i have observed regarding the decreasing rate of applicants for visit visas to kuwait. it has come to my attention that the meta platform for booking appointments to apply for visit visas is experiencing low traffic, indicating a lack of interest among individuals in bringing their families to kuwait for short durations.
i believe that one of the primary reasons for this decline in interest is the limited duration of the visit visa, which only allows for a one-month stay. this short period is not sufficient for family reunions or for individuals planning to bring their families to kuwait for an extended period. in comparison, saudi arabia offers multiple entry visas for family visits with a three-month stay duration, providing more flexibility and convenience for families.
the current one-month duration for visit visas in kuwait poses significant challenges for individuals, especially newly married couples who may be planning to start a family. the limited time frame does not allow for adequate planning or accommodation for family members, leading to unnecessary expenses and logistical difficulties.
it is evident that the rate of applicants for visit visas to kuwait is declining, with fewer individuals rushing to apply through the meta booking system. this trend raises concerns about the impact on expats'' happiness and well-being in kuwait. if this situation continues unchecked, it could result in further dissatisfaction and frustration among expatriates, ultimately leading to a decline in the overall quality of life for expats in kuwait.
in light of these developments, i urge the relevant authorities to reconsider the current policies and regulations governing visit visas to kuwait. by addressing the concerns raised by expatriates and offering more flexible and accommodating visa options, kuwait can enhance its appeal as a welcoming destination for families and individuals seeking to reunite with their loved ones.
