Construction on the colossal Jaber Al Ahmad International Stadium is currently ahead of schedule with 50 per cent of the work already completed, according to the main contractor Mohammed Abdulmohsin Al Kharafi & Sons.

A major development under construction close to the Hunting and Equestrian Club has just seen the completion and opening of Kuwait’s first “all” grass 18-hole international golf course.

A dramatic setting has been created at the Al Kout shopping centre, thanks to the striking water features – both inside and outside – from the Canada headquartered Crystal Fountains. The mall forms part of the Fahaheel Waterfront being developed by Tamdeen Real Estate at Fahaheel in Kuwait.

A striking corporate headquarters building befitting the organisations it will soon house was completed earlier this year at Kuwait Bay at the entrance of Kuwait commercial port in Shuwaikh.

The initiative and technical competence shown by Kuwait Bruckner General Contracting Company (KBC) have helped ensure that the Oil Sector complex sits on a sound foundation that comprises a total of 1,500 piles.

Kuwait is back to its big spending ways, buoyed by the massive surge in oil revenues and new dynamism in the private sector. Armed with a huge budget surplus, the Opec member has moved towards improving the infrastructure with a $51 billion spending plan to cater to the needs of a growing population.
