Great to see Kuwait has so many successful female entrepreneurs.. but it’s sad to see that we’ve adopted the modern western interpretation of “powerful” which is purely based on economic capital. I would have liked to see women on this list who had an actual impact on humanity & society- there are plenty of them around, philanthropists and activists.
