The hashtag 'we are a priority' has recently become one of the most shared hashtags online in Bahrain. The hashtag is being shared by internet users who are denouncing high unemployment rates among young people. Internet users launched the hashtag to criticize the government and its officials who have not responded to this popular campaign.
Through this campaign, internet users have expressed their anger at seeing foreign workers recruited for local jobs and then enjoying great advantages while the country's youth falls into unemployment. Netizens have released figures indicating that Indians are working in Bahrain for high salaries while many Bahraini academics are unemployed.
While the government had remained silent on the issue and potential policy solutions, internet users participating in the campaign have proposed solutions to end the jobs crisis.
