A fishmonger stands in an almost empty isle in the Kuwait Fishmarket in Sharq, Kuwait City, August 25, 2015. A consumer boycott in Kuwait has forced down the retail price of fish in a sign of the difficulties which Gulf governments may face as they try to save money by cutting food subsidies. After the price of pomfret, known to Gulf Arabs as zubaidi or the “king of fish”, rose to 15 dinars ($49.60) a kilogramme, outraged consumers launched a campaign on Twitter last week to boycott fish sellers.
