Kuwaiti government expected to resign over questioning process

Kuwait's cabinet is expected to resign on Thursday after lawmakers asked to question three ministers, parliamentary sources said on Wednesday.

The sources were quoted by Reuters as saying that the cabinet was set to submit its resignation after lawmakers asked to question three ministers who are ruling family members, including the oil exporter's energy minister, who is also the information minister.

Ministerial resignations are frequent in Kuwait, which has the most outspoken parliament in the Gulf Arab region.
