    The place I am residing which is AL TAWUN opposite Safeer Mall has nothing but desert and construction, kids play in places where you find trash flying around, full of sand & dust.. No recreations, no proper mosques.. I would request Sharjah authorities to take a closer look into this area as well..

    It is appreciated to show the importance of Park for children. I would like bring your attention there is no park in Shabiya Khalifa residential area eventhough more familes are living this area.
