    TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2015 Ireland clinch historic victory over Windies NELSON: Ireland caused the first upset of the World Cup when an audacious 92 by Paul Stirling paved the way for a four-wicket win over the West Indies at Nelson’s Saxton Oval yester- day. Stirling stood in a match-defining 106-run stand with Ed Joyce for the second wicket as Ireland chased down a 305-run target with 25 balls to spare. Stirling cracked his 92 off 84 balls, Joyce scored 84 off 67 and Niall O’Brien chimed in with an unbeaten 79 off 60 deliveries.

  • The Role of Islamic Legitimacy Basis to Combat the Financial Corruption in Kuwait
    International Journal of Business Ethics Online ISSN: 2717-9923 and Governance (IJBEG) https://ijbeg.com The Role of Islamic Legitimacy Basis to Combat the Financial Corruption in Kuwait Melfi Muhammed Al Azemi Ministers Council, Kuwait. 51 Email: [email protected] Abdel Majeed Al Omari International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia. Email: [email protected] Tawfeeq Al Omrani International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia. Received March, 2020; Accepted May, 2020 Abstract: The study aims to identify the role of Islamic Sharia to alleviate the problem of financial corruption in Kuwait. The researchers rely on the descriptive method. An extensive literature review was performed with regards to the legitimate ways to combat the financial corruption. The study has conducted interviews with Kuwaiti religious officials who have a long experience in the field of financial corruption. Results indicate that the role of Islamic Sharia is almost absent due to the lack of religious officials’ intervention. Their role in the field of combating financial corruption should be activated and not only restricted to media. This fact had increased the level of the financial corruption according to the annual financial corruption index. The study conveys important remarks. Kuwaiti official ministries and related organizations should embrace Islamic Sharia and rely on the wisdom of religious officials. To combat financial corruption, governments should reinforce the application of Sharia law in Kuwait since it was completely ignored in the past. Keywords: Financial Corruption; Legitimacy Basis. Type: Research paper DOI: 10.51325/ijbeg.v3i2.29 واقع الفساد المالي في الكويت دراسة إجرائية وفق مؤشر الفساد العالمي والقوانين ذات الصلة ملخص البحث : هدفت الدراسة إلى التعرف على دور التأصيل الشرعي في محاربة تسونامي الفساد المالي في دولة الكويت.

New Zealand skittled Scotland out for 142 after putting them into bat, effectively ensuring there would be no repeat of Monday’s match when Ireland, another non-Test nation, downed the West Indies.

  • Combating Corruption in the Middle East
    Combating Corruption in the Middle East This book examines the phenomenon of ‘grand corruption’ in Kuwait and the pattern in the wider region. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the work places corruption in its socio- logical, political, and economic context to explore the relationship between the characteristics of Kuwait as a state with an endemic corruption problem. It then focuses on laws and regulations as key problem-solving mechanisms. In doing so, it identifies, explores, and assesses the existing counter-corruption laws and regulations in Kuwait in a broad socio-political-economic context. The work goes beyond doctrinal legal research, employing empirical methodology based on semi-structured interviews with elite politicians and professional experts from criminal justice and non-governmental organisations (NGOs). These valu- able and original insights are reflected upon throughout the study. The grand corruption that permeates the tier of high-profile officials in Kuwait is replicated in many developing countries where accountability mech- anisms regularly suffer from lack of enforcement. The appeal of this book is its application to numerous jurisdictions, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and Middle East in particular. It will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers, and policymakers working in the areas of financial crime and corruption. Khaled Al-Rashidi is an assistant professor in the Criminal Law Department at School of Law, Kuwait University. The Law of Financial Crime Series Editor: Nicholas
