Kuwait’s government is taking a hard line on housing violations following the Al-Mangaf fire, promising swift action to ensure safe and legal living conditions. Workers found in substandard housing will face deportation within days, highlighting the seriousness of the crackdown.
Despite the potential for displacement, the government has no plans to establish additional shelter centers, believing the current infrastructure is sufficient. This decision underscores their confidence in the existing facilities’ capacity to handle any influx.
The move is part of a larger effort to address housing issues in the wake of the Al-Mangaf fire, balancing immediate relief for affected families with a commitment to enforcing housing regulations effectively.
