Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh to Undergo Major Overhaul Following Ministerial Visit

KUWAIT CITY, April 7: Kuwait’s Minister of State for Municipal Affairs, Abdullatif Al-Mishari, conducted an extensive field visit to Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh today. The delegation included Farwaniya Governor Sheikh Athbi Al-Nasser, Kuwait Municipality Director General Eng. Manal Al-Asfour, and senior officials from the Ministry of Public Works.

Municipal Council member Eng. Alia Al-Farsi explained the visit followed through on recommendations from a recent Environmental Affairs Committee workshop. "This inspection represents our commitment to translating workshop discussions into concrete action," she stated.

Key Focus Areas:

Cleanliness & Compliance: Strict enforcement of Kuwait Municipality and EPA regulations

Infrastructure Upgrades: Emergency repairs for deep potholes and sewage network improvements

Urban Management: Addressing property misuse and reducing overcrowding

Enhanced Monitoring: Systematic removal of violations and encroachments

"Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh possesses prime geographical potential currently undermined by chaotic conditions," Al-Farsi emphasized. "The current state contradicts Kuwait's future vision and requires immediate, systematic intervention." The council member outlined the reciprocal relationship between service quality and resident behavior, noting the area's current situation resembles unregulated slums. Eight prioritized recommendations from the workshop have received ministerial approval for phased implementation. "The status quo is unsustainable," Al-Farsi concluded. "Our comprehensive action plan balances urgent interventions with long-term sustainable development for this strategically important area."
