Kuwaiti tourism

Whenever I accidently go to some place where a nice discussion is going on, I immediately think of the saying: “An accidental meeting may be better than a date”, and before I go further into this, I would like to urge my readers to drop the idea of using this saying on seeing a pretty face.

A few days ago, I had an accidental discussion with a wonderful young Kuwaiti who has great ambitions about serving his country through his field of expertise. This young man is the manager of the tourism department, Faisal Al-Duraei. Talking to him, I found out that some men have a strong desire and will to further develop Kuwait.

Knowing about his position, I started my discussion with a provocative question about tourism in Kuwait and whether Kuwait’s climate allows such an industry. Well, his calmness and wonderfully convincing answer made me take his side and encourage him to carry on with his hard work and persistence to succeed in his line of work.

Faisal told me that Kuwait’s climate was much better than that in many regional countries, and that high temperatures only prevail during a limited period of four months from June to September. “Why don’t we make use of the remaining eight months when the weather is kind of acceptable?” he argued.

Therefore, I do urge everybody to support this young man culturally and media-wise and to overcome all governmental and bureaucracy obstacles so as to turn Kuwait into a destination for family tourism as we all wish. I also urge them to support all ambitious youth in any field that can be of use to Kuwait and beware of those claiming to want to serve Kuwait while they actually work for their own personal benefits.
