Yemeni writer Abobakr Alfaqeeh returns to help us understand the new controversial tax being imposed by the Houthi government as well as the Houthi government’s policies surrounding Covid-19. He talks about the suffering of ordinary Yemeni people living under governments without democratic legitimacy. In the absence of a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, Abobakr tells us how the solidarity of the Yemeni people has given him hope. Instead of waiting for the government to do its role, the Yemeni people are taking their own initiative to take care of each other and to take responsibility for the welfare of the communities they live in.
