In June 2014, the ArabTimesOnline.com carried a report on the Kuwait Interior Ministry’s Criminal Investigations Department’s plans against gambling activities. According to the report, the department would investigate illegal gambling activities and prepare a report on the rising popularity of online gambling in the country.
The report also says that it has come to the notice of the government that several young people in Kuwait are fond of playing games such as poker, roulette, and blackjack online. Kuwaiti gamblers use virtual money purchased with real money to bet on these games, and there is no dearth of people in Kuwait who illegally sell virtual money to online gamblers. The government of Kuwait has plans to arrest these people and take legal action against them.
Change: The Future Looks Promising
Although the situation appears bleak for sports bettors and poker players in Kuwait, things are bound to improve soon. According to a report on Gamingzion, a Kuwaiti politician called Waleed Al-Nasser, who is contesting for the elections to be held this June, is eager to legalize the consumption of alcohol and gambling. Al-Nasser shocked the election department by revealing plans to convert certain Kuwaiti beaches into resorts, where foreign tourists would be permitted to gamble and purchase drinks. Currently, even foreign tourists are not permitted to consume alcohol and gamble in Kuwait.
