The Ministry of Public Works plays an important role in
the infrastructure development of the country.
Its main responsibilities are:
· Digging and paving roads
· Maintenance of sanitary drainage nets
· Establishment of pumping plants
· Water treatment of sanitary drainage to be used in cultivating
greenery
· Establishment and maintenance of nets and utilities for
rain drainage
The Ministry has handled most of the State's projects for the
construction of buildings and development of infrastructure. Some
of its major accomplishments are the Amiri Diwan and the Diwan
of HH Crown Prince and Prime Minister, and the Telecommunication
Centre - with its Liberation Tower -- located in the heart of
Kuwait City. While the Diwans are great monuments representing
the official centres of the State of Kuwait, the Telecommunication
Centre is a well-known landmark.
