Kuwait Times Labeed Abdal column [Kuwait Times](Kuwait Times Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) May 27--Detention centers are full, transfer of sponsors is not allowed more than twice, and the Ministry of Interior has resumed conducting raids. These are the steps being taken by authorities concerned to fight illegal employment and deal with uncontrolled rise in the number of illegal residents. I think we are in the age of information explosion, in which great software can help record the entire population's data in a portable hard disk. We need to quickly start the review process for the 100/10 plan, to teach a lesson to those responsible for the current problems. It is not fair when innocent people are arrested because of mistakes made during the issuance of arrest orders, which in turn happen as a result of names and descriptions getting mixed up, or because civil IDs or passports were left behind at home or with the Mandoob for the purposes of the making of Iqama papers. Also, the inspection campaign to arrest residency law violators and others involved in various crimes should be conducted very delicately, within the parameters of law enforcement requirements and international standards. Such steps will ensure a high level of security for people living, working and travelling in Kuwait. Homes must be made safe from thefts and burglaries, usually done by people who are jobless and hungry. For developing the long awaited financial hub, transportation must be modernized through the construction of new roads and underground transport systems. Everybody will be happy when such jobs are well done, which will make homes and workplaces perfect. No doubt, we all just want to guarantee the security of people's lives and money. Above all, we want to return home from work safe at night. ___ (c)2013 the Kuwait Times (Safat, Kuwait) Visit the Kuwait Times (Safat, Kuwait) at www.kuwaittimes.net/ Distributed by MCT Information Services |
