Kuwait's cabinet on Wednesday discussed progress related to ongoing state projects, including the country's massive new airport terminal.

This came after ministers, led by His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Sabah Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah, toured the construction site of Kuwait International Airport's new Terminal 2 building.

The visit was followed by a briefing by the Minister of Public Works and State Minister for Communications and IT Dr. Rana Al-Fares regarding the project.

The ministers discussed the development's stages, up until June 2021, alongside challenges and obstacles it faces.

The efforts of ministries and the civil aviation authority on the matter were commended for the significant progress witnessed in regards to the project.

As part of plans to prioritize recreational projects given their significance towards overall development plans, the cabinet discussed a public services committee suggestion to provide such facilities across the country's six governorates.

It tasked Kuwait's Public Authority for Youth to follow up on the progress of these planned endeavors, with the aim of building entertainment centers that cater to family needs.

On other development projects in the works, the cabinet asked the country's agriculture and fisheries body, in conjunction with other state institutions, to invest in a scheme aiming to improve the country's community gardens, which are mostly located in residential areas.

The cabinet also discussed laws dealing with a pair of mega city projects, particularly, a northern "Silk City" that aims to diversify the national economy and an economic zone planned for the same region as well.
