Meanwhile, sources from MPWMPW
claimed the centralized system in government departments have slowed down the implementation of many vital projects, which led to huge losses on the part of the government, reports Alam Al-Yawm. Indicating a centralized system hinders proper and prompt decision-making processes, sources said the first phase of Boubyan Project, which costs KD 117 million, might be suspended due to bureaucracy in government institutions. Sources disclosed a private company has filed a case against one of the companies involved in the project in court, which delayed the execution of the project for four months.
