Kuwaiti economic authorities have warned of the impossibility of sustaining the current conditions. More than 300,000 citizens are expected to enter the labor market during the next ten years.

The percentage of citizens working in the government sector reaches a high rate of 78%. The private sector seeks to obtain the maximum possible effort, work, ideas and innovation from anyone who works for it, says economist Dr. Issam Al-Tawari. Al-Twari points out that the number of workers in the private sector may not exceed 70,000.
