KUWAIT: On the occasion of the last ten days of Ramadan His Highness the Kuwaiti Amir delivered a speech to the nation yesterday night. "Carrying on the tradition, we meet to celebrate the last ten days of the holy month. First of all I'd like to congratulate you on the merit of this month. I pray to Almighty God to make it come back to our noble nation as well as all Arab and Muslim nations in peace, boom and blessings," he said.

The Almighty God gave us a lot of bounty for which we have to be in full of praise. Among the signs of praise are to stick to teachings of our holy Islam and to carry on the good traditions of the ancestors. We also have to stand firm in the face of those who try to harm the dear homeland through dissemination of sectarian or tribal sedition and intolerance," Amir added.

The government of Kuwait will not allow disputes with the parliament to undermine process of development, His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah said yesterday and affirmed that the law will be applied on "the big and the small" while assuring there were not "plans against the constitution." Sheikh Nasser, in an interview with State of Kuwait TV, said he was among the vanguard of people committed to democracy, and brushed aside any attempts against the constitution.

Today we hope to see a new page based on commitment with the constitution and separation of authorities with the supremacy of law," he said. The government, he asserted, has always respected the tools used by MPs and the government would not allow differences to "undermine the wheel of development nor to cause tension between the authorities. Sheikh Nasser, commenting on interpellations, said he did not consider the questioning he faced and won as a personal victory but rather a new page for democracy and Kuwait.
