EL TAL EL KABIR – President Abdel Fattah El Sisi has called on all state agencies to be present in Sinai after the elimination of terrorism.
During a meeting in Ismailia Sunday with a number of businessmen to discuss Sinai devepment projects, the president said the state does its best to carry out the development projects plan.
Thanks to God, the Army, Police and Sinai residents, the development in Sinai will be achieved in full, said the president.
President Sisi said the state is keen on increasing Egypt’s populated areas to 12 percent of the country’s lands through establishing new cities.
He said that Sinai did not witness real development during the past years because the development costs were high, pointing out the development costs ranged between 40 and 50 billion dollars.
He said attempts to block the development efforts continued, calling on citizens to be aware of such attempts despite the difficult conditions and the high prices.
The president said the war on terrorism is not over yet and thanked Sinai’s residents for their efforts to protect their lands.
