Authorities Ban Export Of Molded Copper

Minister of Commerce and Industry Khaled Al-Roudhan yesterday issued a ministerial resolution banning the export of molded copper without written approval from the Ministry of Electricity and Water (MEW).

According to report published by Kuwait Times daily, the decision was made upon a request from MEW. The step comes in a bid to fight theft of high voltage cables which thieves steal from power transformers, extract copper from inside then export that copper as scrap metal.
