The 2018 edition of the World Happiness Report was released last week and Kuwait moved down a few spots from 39 to 45. The highest Kuwait has ever been was 31 and that was back in 2012.
Below is a list comparing Kuwait’s ranking to some other countries in the region including the highest ranked and lowest.
1. Finland
20. United Arab Emirates
32. Qatar
33. Saudi Arabia
43. Bahrain
45. Kuwait
156. Burundi
The scoring is based on a number of factors including answers submitted by people who were asked to assess their satisfaction with their current lives on a scale of 0 to 10. For a more detailed explanation as well as the full list of rankings, you can download the World Happiness Report from [Here]
Thanks Haneen!

Funny how most of the people in the “Happy” video are rich and privileged. LOL I know that because I know them.
I love that they tried to be inclusive by making the shawerma people jiggle.
It’s a fad now to shoot and film poor people.
oh my god you’re so annoying!
Hahahahaha
I could’ve said that better.
Why is Bahrain placed under Kuwait? Shouldn’t it be the other way round.
yes! my mistake
Hey, where is Oman?? Oman is the happiest in Gulf, ranking 16th globally. It was necessary to mention it here as you are comparing Kuwait to other Gulf countries. 🙂
Oman for some reason is not on the list. Belgium is ranked #16. You’re looking at the wrong list.
I checked it here: http://www.arabtimesonline.com/news/kuwait-ranks-45th-in-world-happiness-report-oman-happiest-in-gulf/
Fake News 🙁
It says: Kuwait ranked 45th out of 156 countries in the 2018 World Happiness Report released Wednesday by the Sustainable Development Solutions Network for the United Nations. Among the GCC countries, Oman is the happiest country ranking 16th globally, followed by the United Arab Emirates which ranked 20th, Qatar ranked 32nd, Saudi Arabia ranked 33rd and Bahrain ranked 43rd.
Fake information published by the News Portal. They should check before publishing.
Haha, they probably just searched for the word Oman in the pdf and it comes up just once ranked #16 but not under the happiest countries list under a different list.
Accurate. Kuwait continues to get worst & surprised its not already in last place.
Don’t worry Mishal, as soon as all those leeching foreigners with their diabetes and high blood pressure are out, that crown will be ours =)
Hi 🙂
Only expats have those diseases?? Not Kuwaitis? Strange. Nice meeting with such a wonderful person 🙂
Oops😂😂
I meant ‘country’ not person.
It is: Nice meeting with such a wonderful country.
Hope no one misunderstood.
