Introduction
Kuwait is a nation that receives significant global attention
for many reasons. It is highly wealthy, having among the largest
oil reserves in the world. Similar to some of its neighbouring GCC
and Middle Eastern countries, it has experienced substantial growth
in just the last few decades. It is a modern marvel, and this has
attracted many international businesses as well as expatriate
workers, who make up around 70% of the total population.
While the nation's wealth and subsequent growth over the
past decades began due to the vast oil reserves present, the
country has attempted to diversify its economy to safeguard its
future. It has achieved this to a degree and continues to aim for
true diversity.
