New Kuwait have uploaded a video of a tour of the Al Salam Palace construction site. Al Salam Palace if you aren’t aware is currently being refurbished so that it can be turned into a museum. The video tour is in Arabic and you can watch it above or on [YouTube]
On a side note what is New Kuwait and are they connected to the government? Their website is newkuwaitgov.com and their logo is in English only as “New Kuwait” but their website and all their content is only in Arabic. Why give something an English name and then create just an English logo when all your content is going to be in just Arabic?
Thanks Khaled

I just drove by there yesterday when I was showing my friend who just moved here. At first I thought I had passed it but realized it was one of the many construction projects going on. I’m glad they finally saved one old building, I can’t wait for it to open. As for the website well, maybe that’s the only domain name they could think of?
From their website it is a governmental media initiative to inform people of new projects in kuwait. It also mentions that it is to get correct information to the people through their website and mobile apps.
والله كيفنا
Now they just need to restore the old houses right next to the palace, at the traffic light…. they currently look miserable
