Key elements of the plan include:
- Crackdown on residency violators: Expatriates residing illegally in Kuwait are urged to take advantage of a grace period to leave the country or rectify their status. A renewed campaign will target violators from all backgrounds.
- Addressing the Bedoun community: The plan prioritizes the Bedoun, a stateless minority group in Kuwait. Specific details remain undisclosed, but meticulous security arrangements have been underway for years, and implementation is imminent.
- Support for individuals with withdrawn citizenship: Kuwaitis who have lost or are at risk of losing citizenship will receive “temporary exceptional treatment” tailored to their circumstances.
- Procedures for transgender residents: Authorities are developing procedures to address the needs of transgender individuals, respecting their human rights and offering options for fair treatment, including access to education.
This initiative aims to enforce residency laws while safeguarding national security and identity. It also highlights Kuwait’s commitment to finding humane solutions for stateless residents and those facing citizenship issues, reported Arab Times.
