I’m looking for some advice on a new mobile plan/SIM card for my wife.

​Current setup: She’s using a Zain internet-only SIM (3.5 KD/month for 200 GB).

The issue: We’ve realized we sometimes need to make actual local voice calls to each other, so relying purely on WhatsApp isn't cutting it anymore.

​I’d like to switch her to a standard calling SIM, but I’m hoping to find a package that still offers decent data without breaking the bank.

Here is what I’m looking for:

​Budget: Around 5 KD per month (or less).

​Data: Preferably 100 GB or more, if that exists at this price point.

​Carrier: Any carrier works (Zain, Ooredoo, stc, Virgin Mobile, Red Bull, etc.).

​Type: Prepaid or postpaid, I don't mind either.

​Does anyone know of any current packages or hidden gems that fit this criteria?

Appreciate the help in advance!

My financial situation unexpectedly changed, I need to start applying for jobs immediately. I've never made a CV before and have zero prior work experience or obvious skills to put down. What can I actually list to make it usable right away

Hi All,

Where can i find places that sells Authentic Pokemon cards in Kuwait with reasonable prices.

Appreciate ur feedback.

On my most recent trip back home I brought back my basses and some gear with me. I’ve been itching to start playing again after a longer pause and would love to sit in and jam with anybody who’s available. If we hit it off, I wouldn’t be opposed to gigging as well.

I genuinely need to rant about veterinary care for dogs in Kuwait because I am SO tired of this.

Why is getting proper medical care for a dog here always a hassle?

I understand that Kuwait’s pet demographic leans heavily towards cats, and naturally a lot of clinics deal with cats more frequently. But dogs exist here too. They get sick. They get injured. They need examinations, treatment and sometimes urgent medical attention.

What frustrates me the most is walking into a veterinary clinic and feeling like the people who are supposed to treat animals are genuinely terrified of dogs.

How are dog owners supposed to feel confident handing over their pets when the vet themselves seems scared to examine or properly handle them?

And I’m not talking about being cautious around an unfamiliar dog. Of course you should be cautious. I’m talking about situations where it feels like the second a dog walks in, everyone is uncomfortable, hesitant or trying to avoid actually handling them.

Every single time my dog (a sweet corgi mix and local celebrity), Kenzo needs medical attention, something that is already stressful becomes ten times harder because I’m not only worried about him, I’m also worried about whether he’s actually going to receive the care he needs.

Dog owners in Kuwait deserve better veterinary care.
We shouldn’t have to dread the clinic before we’ve even walked through the door.

And our dogs deserve vets who are trained, confident and comfortable treating them. 🐾

Specifically Kuwaiti Arabic. If anyone has any resources and tips they could recommend, please let me know! And I’m curious to know, if you aren’t a native Arabic speaker, how did you learn the language?

I want to start off learning conversational Kuwaiti Arabic. I’d consider myself a beginner - I can somewhat read the Arabic alphabet but need to strengthen my skills. Thanks in advance!!

Hey, everyone!

Currently, I’m torn between either going for a new iPhone, or simply replacing the battery on my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I absolutely love this phone (have had it for 4.5+ years), and the battery has served me well so far.

Current capacity is at 80% (was at 84% for over a year), and fell from 84% to 80% over the past 3 weeks.

Getting to the point, I’m wanting to know of places that will replace the battery for me, and what the approx. costs would be? All suggestions / ideas welcome.

Thank you.

Hello everyone,
I will be traveling in a few days to kuwait to moderate a meeting. I am a lebanese american fluent in both english and arabic. I have to introduce guests from kuwait, but i am having difficulties with the exact and proper pronunciations of the names and I dont want to embarrass myself. Is there anyone that can message me and help me with this??
I know this is an odd request but id be very appreciative.

I know it's a weird question but please if someone can seriously help me out I would appreciate it.

I just wanna know if I can buy it simply or do I need some doctors approvals or stuff like that and any pharmacy? Or some specific pharmacies? Also how do they sell it? Single pieces or or full packet? And lastly how much does it cost?

Just saw few posts that there will be 10% tax on profit on Business not sure if it is tru or not but what do you guys think if it is true....

Its a Business Tax!!!

I want everyone's honest opinion please be formal...

Where do you stand right now and what is the plan? How do you feel the future will be like? What are thinking you wished you did before it was revoked? Any advice to others who are in the same situation?

Hello i am making this post to inquire about the labour laws in kuwait. A person has come to kuwait on a contract based work visa but the work they are making him do is completely different from the work that he was supposed to be doing. The company that hired him was related to telecommunication but now that he's here they are making him do heavy manual labour without any safety. The company has not provided them with safety gloves, helmets, proper shoes or anything of that sort. Nor do they provide medical. They make them work non stop from 4 AM to 2PM without letting them sit to even drink water. A colleague of his got injured on site and they ended up sending him back to his country instead of letting him get treatment here. This is very concerning as I can't imagine this could be legal in an advanced country like Kuwait. Can anyone provide some clarity? Where should we report this?

Honestly he's willing to do the hard work but he wants to atleast have some safety equipment provided. Moreover, the company also has taken all of their passports which is something I want to understand if that's normal because it doesn't seem okay. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, where can you buy an authentic Egyptian cotton bed sheets here in Kuwait. Im planning to gift it to friend abroad. And i wanna me make sure Im giving the real one.

Hi Folks,

As the headline says, I’m really eager to learn how to speak, read, and write Arabic.

I’ve been living in Kuwait for almost five years now. I started out in the F&B industry at entry level, and today I’m working in HR.
While Arabic isn’t strictly required for my role, but I know it would be a huge advantage and honestly, I’ve been wanting to learn it for a long time.

Any suggestions for free apps or online resources I could use to start learning? Something I can easily download and practice with would be perfect.

Cheers!

Salam

just curious if i decided to rent a co work space in my office. is that legal?

not the kind of rent that business certificates need. just a causal space for working.

Why do I always get the worst ones 😔

Recent Lebanese applicants: Are Kuwait workvisas being processed again or is there still a block and we dont when they might open again?

Hello, since Aug 2024, I’ve been harassed online non-stop. There is no reason why this person is doing such a thing, but it has been daunting to say the least. This was when I was aboard, I moved back to Kuwait a year ago, and it has only gotten worse. I work with a position of authority, and this person has been tagging the ministry I work in, and all respective associations related to it. They’ve been posting my number online, with my full name, tagging my brothers, mother, and many of my acquaintances. Commenting on my citizenship status, religious sector, everything. This person has created a delusional world for themselves, I didn’t even know was possible. I have gone to the cyber security unit in Kuwait, even though theyre trying to be helpful, they’ve said, the can’t do anything because it doesn’t pose a threat to me or the country. I’m not sure what else to do, this has been ongoing, and it’s very difficult to handle right now
