Crypto crackdown in Kuwait intensifies through inter-agency action

KUWAIT CITY - The path of joint coordination between ministries and government entities in Kuwait has witnessed a notable increase within the framework of strategic transformations in managing the governmental system and services offered to the public. This coordination has led to tangible successes across several vital areas, enhancing the country's ability to open new development and service horizons. The outcomes of institutional integration among state entities contributed to advancing major projects, unifying efforts to rationalize electricity consumption, combating illegal cryptocurrency mining activities, accelerating the pace of digital transformation, and giving strong momentum to infrastructure maintenance nationwide. An example of high-level coordination is the activation of memoranda of understanding (MoU) between Kuwait and China, particularly regarding strategic projects such as the Mubarak Al-Kabeer Port, as it displays coordinated efforts between relevant government bodies. Kuwait has intensified efforts through cooperation between the Ministries of Finance, Foreign Affairs and Public Works, amongst others, to push bilateral cooperation with China toward more advanced phases, aiming to expedite the implementation of mega projects that align with Kuwait Vision 2035. The housing sector has also received special attention, via the launch of the Coordinating Committee in March to follow up on the provision of services related to housing projects. The committee consists of eight government bodies. The committee is responsible for taking all necessary measures to complete housing-related projects, coordinating efforts among participating bodies to develop joint plans and mechanisms for the provision, operation and maintenance of services in existing and future cities and residential areas. It also identifies the entities responsible for receiving buildings in line with project timelines. Members of the committee include representatives from the Ministries of Finance, Public Works, Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy, Communications, as well as Kuwait Municipality, the Public Authority for Roads and Transportation (PART), the Public Authority of Agriculture Affairs and Fish Resources and the Kuwait Credit Bank, reflecting the government's keenness to unify efforts in developing this vital sector. Government integration aimed at electricity conservation has been bolstered through various measures, including the formation of a committee consisting of representatives from several ministries and agencies. This committee is tasked with preparing an integrated system of awareness programs to highlight the importance of conservation and its direct impact on public funds and the environment. Actions taken by state ministries include issuing detailed measures on conservation procedures, outlining practical steps to reduce loads across various sectors and facilities, launching national campaigns for optimal energy use, activating cooperation protocols with the Ministry of Electricity, and forming teams to inspect buildings and facilities. In early May, the Higher Committee for Energy began reviewing the National Energy Transformation Document of 2024, prepared by the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences (KFAS), which serves as a key reference for developing the country's energy sector. This committee includes representatives from relevant government bodies and institutions such as Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR), the Public Authority for Housing Welfare, the Ministry of Finance, the Kuwait Authority for Partnership Projects (KAPP), the Public Authority for Industry, the Environment Public Authority and Kuwait Municipality. In a related context, joint coordination among government ministries led to a successful security campaign to combat illegal cryptocurrency mining activities. This was part of the state's efforts to counter unlawful use of electricity and practices that negatively impact power networks. The campaign, conducted last April by the Ministry of Interior in cooperation with the Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy, and the Public Authority for Industry, resulted in the discovery of several non-compliant residences, the seizure of mining equipment, and the initiation of legal procedures against violators. Meanwhile, the Public Prosecution began investigating 31 reports concerning the illegal use of electricity for cryptocurrency mining in 59 houses, questioning 116 individuals involved. In efforts to accelerate digital service integration and simplify procedures for citizens and residents, a wide-scale coordination workshop was held last April. It brought together representatives from 38 government bodies that offer services through the unified government smartphone services app (Sahel). A workshop reviewed key performance indicators and achievements, with more than 91 million services delivered since Sahel's launch in September 2021. The number of users has also risen to 2.7 million. Government bodies are now working in harmony to reengineer their services in accordance with digital journey standards to improve efficiency, reduce red-tape, and enhance user experience based on data and indicators provided by Sahel. Regarding the role of governorates in development and service improvement, coordination between governors and various government authorities has accelerated through joint meetings and field visits to unify teamwork.

Djibouti Pursues Vision 2035 as Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Joins African Energy Week (AEW) 2025

Yonis Ali Guedi, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Djibouti, will speak at this year's edition of the African Energy Week (AEW): Invest in African Energies 2025 conference. Taking place September 29 to October 3 in Cape Town, the conference unites global financiers and project developers with African governments and state-owned corporations, fostering collaboration and dealmaking in line with the respective energy goals of African nations. Djibouti, serving as a gateway to international markets for several landlocked countries in East and Central Africa, is affirming its position as a trade corridor while scaling-up its own energy development. Under its Vision 2035 – a long-term strategic vision for the economy – the country aims to leverage is geostrategic position to support global and African trade. The country will achieve this by fostering regional integration and globalization with a view to creating a single Djibouti-Ethiopia-South Sudan-Somalia and Eritrea trade network. AEW: Invest in African Energies – as the largest event of its kind on the continent – supports this goal by uniting continental actors under one roof. AEW: Invest in African Energies is the platform of choice for project operators, financiers, technology providers and government, and has emerged as the official place to sign deals in African energy. Visit for more information about this exciting event. Beyond trade, Vision 2035 outlines a goal to produce 100% of the country's electricity from renewable energy resources by 2035. At present, the country relies heavily on power imports, with interconnections with neighboring Ethiopia providing a crucial source of power to sustain the economy. Approximately 70% of Djibouti's power is imported from Ethiopia, one of the biggest renewable energy producers in Africa. To enhance imports even further, the two countries are developing the Ethiopia-Djibouti Interconnection Project II – the second phase of the existing interconnection project which has been operating for ten years. The second phase will increase imports by 30%, reducing fossil fuel reliance in Djibouti. In addition to imports, Djibouti is developing its own renewable energy projects. The country inaugurated its first wind farm in 2023: the 60 MW Red Sea Power facility. The project comprises a 220 MVA substation and 5 km of overhead transmission lines, connecting the facility with the Electricite de Djibouti substation. The country also signed an agreement with renewable energy firm AMEA Power in 2023 to develop a 25 MW solar photovoltaic project in the Grand Bara area near the capital city Djibouti. A 25-year power purchase agreement is in place with the government, with the project being developed under a Build-Own Operate and Transfer model. Following completion, the project will be the first solar independent power project in the country. The project is currently in the planning stage. Stepping into this picture, AEW: Invest in African Energies 2025 offers a unique opportunity for the country to showcase its energy opportunities while connecting with global investors. The event is the premier platform for the African energy sector and takes place under a mandate of making energy poverty history by 2030. This aligns closely with the goals of Djibouti and Minister Guedi's participation further underscores the commitment by the country to securing investment and driving energy development. 'Djibouti is taking advantage of its strategic location at the horn of Africa to strengthen Africa-global trade and exports. While the country does not have any domestic oil and gas resources as of yet, Djibouti is leveraging its renewable energy resources to improve electricity capacity and drive impactful economic growth. By participating at AEW: Invest in African Energies 2025, Minister Guedi is committing to working with regional and international partners to realize the country's energy and trade goals,' states Tomás Gerbasio, VP Commercial and Strategic Engagement, African Energy Chamber.

Kuwait aims to bolster global rapport for economic stability

MUSCAT: Kuwait plans to ratchet up cooperation with global bodies in a bid to enhance the region's economic growth and stability, a diplomat said on Monday. Such a measure would lure greater foreign investments in the Gulf Arab region, which is imperative given the "geopolitical tensions" gripping the international community, Kuwait's permanent delegate to the UN and other international organizations Nasser Al-Heyn told a roundtable, co-held by the Chinese government and the World Trade Oraganization (WTO) over efforts to boost Arab integration within the global body. The unrest could potentially hamper trade and investment in wider Middle East region, subequently disrupting the flow of goods into the markets around the region, the diplomat warned, calling for more "dialouge and joint work" to safeguard national interests, he underlined. Against the backdrop of the 30th anniversary of Kuwait's entry into the WTO, he said that his country's political leaders are eager to back the global organization given its crucial role towards a more "stable" grade system, added the diplomat. He went on to reiterate the importance of Kuwait's vision 2035, a long-term develoment scheme aiming to diversify the national economy through curbing its reliance on oil exports as part of an economic transformation that follows global trends, chief among them the acceleration of a digital drive, the diplomat said.
