• There are complaints about exorbitantly high prices in the duty-free shop at Doha International Airport compared to prices in Qatar.
• There are demands for installing electronic machines at all commercial complexes in Qatar so consumers can lodge complaints against erring commercial centres. A media drive should be launched to educate people about the machines.
• There are demands to implement the recommendations of the Advisory Council on easing procedures for issuance of building licences. Due to the lengthy and complicated procedures, it takes up to three weeks to get a licence to build a villa, while a licence to construct a tower or residential complex takes six months.
• There are proposals to create parking lots in Al Dafna and West Bay, especially close to the bus terminal set up by the Ministry of Transport to cater to the West Bay area. Organisations with offices in West Bay should encourage their employees to use public transport to reach their workplace.
• There are demands for an inspection drive in the narrow streets inside Souq Ali, as some shopkeepers are putting garbage out on the street and a heap of garbage has been left in the open for long.
• There are demands for repairing roads, especially C and D ring roads, whose asphalt layer has been destroyed in several places. Despite efforts to carry out repairs, the defects remain, and a lasting solution is needed.
