THE GUARDIAN: Newspaper reports government could resign before demonstration demanding PM resign over corruption allegations
Kuwait's ruler will hold an emergency meeting with his cabinet to try to avert a possible government collapse after three ministers resigned amid growing protests, a Kuwaiti newspaper said.
Kuwaiti daily newspaper al-Watan said the government could submit its resignation to the emir on Monday morning before protesters plan a large demonstration against the government.
"His Highness the emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah will head a cabinet meeting to end the current crisis between the legislative and the executive authorities," Watan reported, citing special sources.
The paper said at least three ministers, including the minister of justice, minister of health and minister of state for development affairs, had resigned because they were unhappy with the government's performance. » | Reuters in Kuwait | Monday, November 28, 2011
