Kuwait won’t be the same after 3 months from now!!

It never did anyways in any given period of time. No, the parliament won’t be dissolved and, no, phone number won’t be the same again. Kuwait will implement an 8 digit telephone circuit system for both mobile and landline telephones.

If you look at the bright side, that’s a good indicator. Kuwait started with a 4 digit system back in the 60’s.

My prediction! The future is for ipV6. Phone numbers will just be classic aliases.

O 3ayedee ya Kuwait!

The goons did the same to us in Bahrain. At first it was awkward having to add a prefix in front of all the phone numbers but it is now 3adi. I suppose we just got used to it!

Me too, just don’t touch the phone system!!

I think the switch will happen over the night! Next thing in the morning 7 digits will no longer work!!

bashar
I haven’t thought of that !! don’t worry mobile shops will come up with something for 10 kd that will update you complete contact list perhaps.

I don't think the 8 digit implementation will be of effect. I mean, specially for us! maybe for the new generations having to include one more digit to remember. But for us, you just have to keep remembering your own number and add a prefix just like everybody does ;-)

Cheers,
