What pains me most is that while people are very eager to hoist the flag on National Day as a show of love for the nation, many just leave it behind on the post for months to face the ravages of the weather. After a short period of time, the flags left flying on house-tops and buildings, get discolored and also torn to shreds by the wind. Those hoisting the flag are possibly unaware that taking care of the flag is equally important and the responsibility of each and every person living in Qatar, be it locals or otherwise. The flag should be lowered after the National Day passes and kept safely somewhere.
