Kuwait City: The Kuwaiti government is preparing a list of up to 4,000 non-Kuwaitis to be granted Kuwaiti citizenship, according to Kuwait Times.
Citing well-informed sources, the newspaper said that the list would be announced sometime before the end of the year.
The naturalisation process will be made according to a law passed in parliament and stipulates that the government cannot give citizenship to more than 4,000 a year.
However, the law does not stipulate that Kuwait must naturalise 4,000 people every year.
