Recently Saudi Arabia banned export chicken to Qatar mainly they have shortage for their own people and also price hike. Bad news for Qatar as Qatar import about 90% of their food and pretty much this country depend on other country to sustain themselves.
A fresh cut of chicken about 8 drumstick used to cost about QR9 and now it cost about QR35 for chicken imported from other country. There are some place sell local Qatar chicken but stock are very limited and most of the time the shelf is empty the moment it is displayed.
I am still waiting for the price to drop as I need to buy chicken to make herbal chicken soup but I think is gonna take a while. Nothing survive in Qatar. My personal opinion, the billions of dollar Qatar spend on World Cup should use on agriculture and solar system and even electric car.
I am sure they will be very famous for being the first oil and gas country to run entirely on renewable energy!
