Iraq has been a country which has gone through much. And because of the experiences that this country has had, the result is that they are now going through the process of rising up from the ruins.

And in the country’s city of Baghdad, people here do tell of times when they would go through shortages in electricity. Now that is something difficult to deal with for most of the stuff that people need in everyday lives uses electricity.

What the officials of the city have decided to do was use solar power as the source of power for their streetlights. That is indeed a real good idea for people now would not have to worry about walking through the streets when the sun goes down. Sajad Hussein is one of the people behind such a plan and he shares, “We are lighting up the city with solar power. People say it is a gift from God.”

And I can say that it is.
