The New Republic

By Mahmoud Zaki

Major national achievements were made and projects implemented in the past period to totally alter conditions in massive parts of our country.

This has been especially true to the projects implemented in southern Egypt in the past period.

This is why this part of our country is coming to be known as ‘Gracious Upper Egypt’.

These projects include expansions in the Egyptian Chemical Industries factory, known as KIMA, in Aswan.

The world watches the achievements being made in Egypt in astonishment.

The grand openings of giant projects are beyond imagination. These projects are finally making the dreams of ordinary Egyptians come true. They fulfill the optimal target of improving the quality of life of Egyptians. This is being done under the leadership of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi.

Everybody watched last week as President Sisi inaugurated major projects in Aswan and visited Nubian villages where the quality of life is changing, thanks to the presidential Decent Life initiative.

The president’s meetings with honourable citizens in the villages of Aswan confirm once again strong connections between the Egyptian leader and people on the streets.

These people are just being given hopes for a better future by the new projects being implemented and opened here and there every day.

The giant projects being carried out in Egypt today will not change the life of the current generation of Egyptians only. They will also create solid foundations for the prosperity of Egyptians throughout the 21st century.

This is the great meaning behind implementing this unprecedented series of national projects which cover all aspects of life in Egypt, including infrastructure, roads, utilities, electricity, gas, water and sewage.

These projects also compound the huge and positive transformations taking place in education and health.

President Sisi’s seven years of rule have been marked so far by giant national projects.

These achievements are unprecedented, not only in Egyptian history, but also in Arab and African history.

According to observers, the impressive successes made in Egypt in these seven years do not only change life in Egyptian cities and villages, but also change concepts among Egyptians and their mindsets.

In Aswan, President Sisi said the world is changing and that there would be no room in this world for those who do not work hard or seriously.

It is now clear that each citizen has an enormous share of the development and investment projects taking place in this country, even as they aim to create a new future for young Egyptians, the sons and the daughters of the New Republic.

With all these projects, the New Republic has become an umbrella for the prosperous life of each citizen on the land of Egypt.

Suffice it to say that these new projects have made the New Republic one for all citizens in Egypt.

Long live Egypt!
