NATIONAL DAY >> KUWAIT NATIONAL DAY
Located in a region of deserts, Kuwait is a small country in the Middle East that offers multiple leisure options for its people and great surprises for the visitors. A charming and exotic country of contrasts, Kuwait has great beaches and maritime clubs and resorts, such as the Failaka Islands leisure resort, the Green Island and its lake, the Garden of Dancing Waters, the Skating Rink, the Fun city, the Kuwait towers, and the Khiran Resort, among others.
Besides its natural beauties, Kuwait is a rich country that applies a large portion of its resources in the humanization of people's lives. The Iraq attack in the Gulf war in 1990 united the population around the belief that peace must be obtained to consolidate national soberanity. Even after a devastating war, the country bounced back into a solid democratic regime. The people of the country get together in their homes to discuss the country's problems in small groups (diwaniyas), and the ones who defend democracy tend to get elected. Women have been free for 30 years. Free health services are available for all and the Welfare State assists the elders, the orphans, and the incapacitated, whether they are foreigners or nationals.
Kuwait is an ancient culture highly developed technologically, bringing us an example of strength. Its foreign affairs policy defends a pacific relationship among the countries, based on mutual cooperation and respect. In order to consolidate these purposes, Kuwait keeps around a hundred diplomatic missions abroad.
