President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi said that the Egyptian state needs a trillion dollars every year, meaning 30 trillion pounds. Is this amount available, half or a quarter available?
President El-Sisi added, during his speech at the World Summit of Governments in the Emirates: “I sought a solution through initiatives…with ideas…whose circumstances are difficult to think…I am talking about a country like Egypt…as an experiment.”
And President El-Sisi continued: “We are living as a challenge on a narrow strip from Aswan to Alexandria 150 years ago..the strip adjacent to the Nile..was appropriate in the days of Muhammad Ali 150 years ago..the population was 4 million..it was no longer appropriate when we took the decision of 82 million.. This is a major challenge… in slums and urban planning… and a challenge in urban development.”
And President El-Sisi continued: “How many days have I been present with the soccer cubs..a boy from them tells me that I can stay like Mohamed Salah..I told him to follow the path of Mohamed Salah..development, growth and progress are the same. The situation is easy. South Korea and Singapore..you can only appreciate the context.. Work, work, patience and sacrifice.. Work, work, work.. Patience and sacrifice.. You will not solve the issue in a period of time.”
