official to the June 2003 International Conference and
Exposition on Agricultural Science and Technology: Sheikh
Fahad Salim Al-Ali Al-Sabah, Chairman and Director General of
the Public Authority for Agriculture Affairs and Fish
Resources (PAAAFR). The Government of Kuwait does not have a

Minister, as decreed by the GOK in June 2001, and reports
directly to the State Minister for Cabinet Affairs.
