Storyline

Economic Corporation in the temporary capital of Aden opened Ramadan tents, which are venues installed during the month of Ramadan for different purposes; such as serving daily Iftar meals or selling foodstuffs at reduced prices.

The Corporation provides all the requirements of the holy month at reduced prices, to relieve the burdens of citizens in light of the difficult economic conditions that the country is going through.

Large number of merchants displayed their products in these tents which were distributed in many areas in the capital, Aden.

  • (SOUNDBITE) Nasser Abdul Majeed – Citizen:
  • “Today we visited the Ramadan tent. The organization was wonderful and we noticed a slight difference in prices, but still not as we hoped. People suffer low salaries and the economic conditions are bad. It would be better if the merchants reduce the prices more.”
  • (SOUNDBITE) Salah Mahmoud – Organizers in the Ramadan tent:

“The tents aim at alleviating the suffering of the people, and an initiative by the merchants to reduce the prices for consumers. During our work, we found that some products are sold at 6000 in the market, while here at 5000.”
