HOUSING CONSTRUCTION FOR WORKERS : DECISION STILL UNCLEAR

  • 01/02/2021

Kuwait City ; The Municipal Council had earlier approved the construction of a 2.5 million square meter residential city for workers in southern Sabah Al Ahmad,similar to  a former project of the Kuwait Municipality of the same size which  in the suburbs of Abdullah Al Salim.Project officials in the municipality, in particular, have been working hard to implement the construction city plan for the workers, especially since the project was placed on the ministry's priority list last year, when many areas were closed due to the spread of the corona virus.


 
Although the lockdown period led to the opening of several files and  meetings and decisions related to the implementation of such projects have taken place ,  no other significant progress has been made so far. The construction of residential cities for workers remains an obscure issue as there are conflicting opinions about the legal validity of granting it to the Ministry of Public Works, Public-Private Partnership Authority or other public bodies.
