People are complaining about soaring fees at private dental clinics. They say there must be a mechanism to check the increase.
 
There is a need to create awareness among people about crossing roads to reduce accident rates. Pedestrian crossing is a major cause of accidents.
 
Some residents are suggesting that the Supreme Education Council (SEC) organise short-term courses for mothers on how to deal with problems they face with their schoolchildren. Mothers need proper guidance in educating their children and solving other problems.
 
People are observing that many political events and conferences held in Qatar are being conducted in English rather than Arabic. 
 
Many people are using the Qatar Vision 2030 to talk about anything, even minor things like street paving. They say it’s being done as part of the Qatar Vision 2030 – in a lighthearted way. 
 
Many top positions in education sector are being occupied by females and seem to be reserved for them, some people say. 
 
There are suggestions to organise National Day celebrations on geographical basis rather than tribes. Currently, different tribes are setting up tents to celebrate the day, which people say can be replaced with tents set up in each area where people of all tribes can go.
 
There is an increasing demand for winter clothes as the temperature falls. 
 
The number of accidents and traffic jams on 22 February Road is illogical and so the concerned authorities need to find solutions to reduce accidents and jams, residents in the area say.
