to begin with, it is not possible to think about any political, administrative, and economic reform, and to expect the success of the vision or plan on the ground before thinking about limiting the religious-political control which represents the title of backwardness, because its thought and representatives control the joints of the state.
out of ignorance or fear, representatives of political parties and their sympathizers are the largest blocs in parliament and they are therefore able to thwart any economic or reform plan that may require, for example, the dismissal of a failed or corrupt leaderships affiliated with the religious trend, and at the same time, it can get rid of any liberal or even conservative leadership if not belonging to it or owe allegiance to a hostile party.
these parties also possess their legitimate and illegitimate tools, in addition to their ability to impose their share on the government, so far, of any future appointments, regardless of competence and eligibility.
in general, the state administration complains of the following obstacles: absence of a mechanism for selecting leaders of the first and second rows; the classic selection of ministers, and having to adopt quotas in order to satisfy the largest number of centers of power at the expense of efficiency; the government’s tendency to appease the members of the national assembly, and to resort to various methods to avoid deputies’ interpellations; lack of vision for the various educational, industrial, commercial, residential, agricultural, environmental, and many other sectors; the state lacks well-studied and binding strategies for government agencies.
this is in addition to the inability of the current curricula to meet the requirements of the labor market; the failure to create practical technical cadres, due to the modest outputs of applied education, and the refusal of those who finish their studies in these institutes to work in the field in which they specialize, and what an exaggeration it is; the huge annual number of university graduates looking for jobs in the government, which is almost forced to employ them and the government’s burdens increased because it assumed all the operations of the state instead of supervising them.
the almost complete inability to manage its subsidiary bodies and its losses are increasing years after years, such as aviation, kuwait airways, touristic enterprises company, al durra, and dozens of others, the slackness of the health sector, the delay in the privatization of hospitals, the acceleration of the participation of the private sector in the field of health care, and the need to stop treatment abroad, except in the narrowest limits.
stopping the overlap between the parties concerned with oil and stopping the waste of energy and water resources.
it is also necessary to reconsider the status of bodies, such as the office of social development, the office of the martyr, and the committee on prisoners and missing persons, and the necessity of attaching them to the ministry of affairs.
it is also important to revive the role of the encroachment removal committee, to attach the government performance follow-up agency to the civil service commission, and to make the manpower restructuring program subordinate to the public authority for manpower.
the necessity of merging the housing welfare authority with the ministry of housing, canceling the quran printing authority and merging it with the department of quran affairs in the ministry of awqaf, and the national center for education development with the ministry of education, after it was unable to develop anything since its establishment!
