    6. (U) COMMANDER'S EVALUATION.
        A. (U) THE IMPROVEMENT OF KUWAIT'S INFRASTRUCTURE CONTINUES
UMEROUS AREAS. KUWAITI BANKS ARE REMAINING OPEN LATE TO
    ACCOMODATE INCREASED CUSTOMER DEMAND DURING THE CURRENCY CONVERSION
    PERIOD. THE RAS AZ ZOUR POWER PLANT IS EXPECTED TO PROVIDE 700
    MEGAWATTS OF POWER TO KUWAIT CITY BY 4 APRIL. CCATF FACILITATED AN
    EOD CLASS FOR EMPLOYEES OF THE KUWAIT OIL COMPANY (KOC), AND OIL
    FIELD FIREFIGHTING TEAMS. HEAVY FIREFIGHTING EQUIPMENT ARRIVED AT AS
    SHUAIBA PORT AND IS CURRENTLY BEING OFFLOADED. CCATF WILL SUPPORT
    THE WATER POTABILITY TESTING PROGRAM FOR KUWAITI BULK WATER SUPPLIES
    BEING CONDUCTED BY THE COMMONWEALTH LABS. CONCERN CURRENTLY EXISTS
    OVER THE NEW EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS BEING GRANTED TO THIRD COUNTRY
    NATIONALS WORKING IN KUWAIT. THE CONTRACTS ARE FOR A PERIOD OF ONLY
    THREE MONTHS, RATHER THAN THE PRE-WAR STANDARD OF ONE YEAR. THIS IS
    RAISING THE LEVEL OF UNCERTAINTY FELT BY TCN WORKERS. AN ADDITIONAL
    ITEM OF INTEREST IS THAT THE CONTRACTS ARE NOW WRITTEN ONLY IN
    ARABICT RATHER THAN THE DUAL LANGUAGE CONTRACTS THAT WERE ISSUED
    PRIOR TO THE WAR.
