Kuwait doesn’t have an offical website!
if you type in “Kuwait” in your small Google search box, all you find is foreign sites talking about Kuwait! doesn’t the government of Kuwait want to show the world where the country is located, why people would want to come to Kuwait, how people can come to Kuwait, or how would they spend their time there? we believe it is important to draw a little nice picture of our county in the World Wide Web. on the other hand, if you type in “Dubai” , “Abu Dhabi”, “Qatar”, “Bahrain”, you’ll see GOVERNMENTAL sites showing you what you need to know about their country. Hope our ministry of information takes a little step forward instead of going through people’s mails and deliveries for the time being.

Actually, there is an official website for Kuwait. It’s from the Diwan Al Amiri:
http://www.kuwait.kw
which will forward you to:
http://www.da.gov.kw
As I remember the official Kuwait was a different than the Dewan one, I don’t know what happened to the old one. But, neither one of them is as good as Bahrain’s or Dubai’s websites anyway.

Again, Kuwait official site has Flash intro!!! WHY?
I think the problem is there is no organization, and if you look at it from the inside, you would see some different departments want credit for them selves, so you see non-relevant information on some government sites.

I was going to mention too, that at least the Amir has his own site, but BeDoOr already did
