The following article written by Mr Omar El Tibi, a well known
Syrian journalist appeared in Damascus' "Alef-Ba" under the title
” Kuweit sets the example in the Persian Gulf”
M News from Kuweit inform us of the quick progress in the works of
the Legislative Council* The Council receives strong encouragement on the
part of the Amir whose interest in Arab questions is well known* The
nembers of the Council enjoy the same privileges as the deputies and
jouncellors* The Amir asks for their opinion and advice for every question
connected with the public. On their demand the Amir dismissed his Secre
tary, Mollah Saleh. It might be remembered that in 1925, on my way to
ilecca I had heard and published in tMA newspaper, rumours about the
Imir of Kuweit's secretary. Although he occupied his position for a
Long time he never gave entire satisfaction to the population. We hope
lis successor will please both the Amir and the Council*
n We wish the Council would take measures as to the settlement of
certain questions concerning the civil servants. There ought to be a
tontrol tfeK over them and the establishment of a retiring pension is ^ ,
[uite necessary. ’When they feel their future is safe they will not be
,empted to let themselves be bribed and corrupted.
M We congratulate the Principalty of Kuweit on the union of the
’rincipalty's Posts and Telegrams services with those of Iraq. We wish it
rould be an example for other Arab principalties and the first step toward
omplete union in the
Persian Gulf
The historical term used to describe the body of water between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran.
. Then England would have to face a
nited nation and not a few scattered states.
n If a war breaks and there exists no union among the Arab Princi-
alties, God knows what may happen. But if the rulers unite they will
rotect their countries against foreign ambitions and the colonist's
hip.”
