Beautification is to be considered as luxury. If they spend on laying new railway line, for example, it can be considered as a necessary expense.

I appreciate government for this step. This is not a luxury, instead a necessity. There are no entrance fees for most of the Gardens. Even if there is a fee for some, it is very nominal as these are not privatized. We just need to have a cool mindset to enjoy the beauty of nature. Unfortunately many of the gardens are empty during the week days. People prefer to stay indoors and are busy with their smartphone. Some people are busy even there. Few days before, when I visited a garden, I myself saw a family of 4. All of them were engaged with their electronic devices. The father was busy with his I-Phone, mother with a similar smart phone and 2 kids with 2 different colored Tabs!

Kuwait government is telling they wanted to save money because of reduction in oil prices. But the same government is squandering money for luxuries.
What an irony.
