The design of the new Egyptian parliament in the new administrative capital.

Any architects or fledgling ones to give an opinion?

That new parlament... isn't it an XXL redesign of the current one?
Same tri-wing , Cupola and Front Entrance Design... But t's less "Egyptian" and more Roman/Greek feeling...

Anyway not a bad Design... even thou' I would have wanted to see a design that will show "more" heritage of Egypt... One exemple is Colors... since Pharaons over used beautifully colors in all their architectural elements...
Or the Cupola... that is more Roman design than "Arabic one"...
and Last the Entrance... it's like a Roman amphitheatre than a Luxor Entrance...

Great, keep it up.

Tremendous. The concentration of infrastructure is critical to the development of Egypt moving forward. It's a huge part of the foundation that leads to many other improvements. Without proper infrastructure, development is hampered. The government has taken this part very seriously and they've done very well so far.

Funny thing, bro, there's a Moroccan fellow who's an attendant at a gas station I visit quite frequently to fill up diesel in my truck and we always chat in Arabic about the motherlands etc., and his opinion of Egypt is hilarious and stuck back in the middle of the Mubarak era. I keep telling him about all these things happening and he just won't have it lol. He's a really nice guy and we're ok and all, but that anti-Egyptian sentiment is amazingly prevalent even in such isolated cases. A very interesting phenomenon.

@Crocodile , have you ran into anything like that so far in your couple of years here now?

On the contrary my friend, I had a Libyan friend here who totally adored Egypt and visited Cairo, Alexandria and Sharm El-Sheikh quite a few times. She always brought up Adel Imam punchlines every time we spoke. I also had some Indian friends who held a great reverence to Egyptian heritage and culture. Not to mention the widening eyes and gasping mouths of every American fellow once they know I'm from Egypt. These hateful sentiments we see from some people seem to be concentrated mainly in the Maghreb region, Especially Algerians. I have no idea why that's the case.

I think that Moroccan guy is somehow an ignorant.. because most North Africans I met here and in Europe love Egypt.. but I am talking about educated people, who have opinions based on knowledge.. not just anyone who might not even be able to find Egypt on a map.. Every true Arab is proud of Egypt's achievements..

I dont think the opinion of Morrocans or Algerians matter as they are far away and have zero influence over the events in the region.

What I would be worried about is public opinion in a country like Sudan which is mostly negative and the Egyptian administration should keep a close eye on that country and be prepared to smash it if they affect Egypt water supply. Sudan is slowly turning into a new Venzuela , the government raised price of one bread 70 grams to one pound and the dollar appreciated to 32 Sudanese pound, the country will eventually explode from within and destroy itself which be a great advantage for Egypt.

Syria and Iraq after the recent events now have a favorable opinion of Egypt and their main enemies are Turkey and MB. The Gulf region and Yemen have always had stable relations with Egypt with the exception of Isolated street Qatar.

Sisi does not have about what Arabs thinks and his orientation towards Africa is a smart decision , no one there will attack you for your Relations with Israel or your movies and you know all the bullshit that some worthless Arabs bark about against Egypt.

The recent bread riots in Tunisia and Sudan will be the start of a new wave of protests in Arab countries due to lack of economic reforms , Egyptian government has reformed its economy and refused wasteful subsidies inclding floating the pound 2 years ago and now is gaining the benefits of these reforms , when Egypt was doing that many Arabs were making fun of Egypt especially the Sudanese clowns and now their government is forced to undertake even more painful reforms but they did it in a very background way that lead to the fall of Sudanese pound and hyper inflation .

Your last opinion is wrong and only based on your personal belief...

Sad to say this but significant number of Arabs hate Egyptians more than Jews , its the truth especially clowns of Algeria. The Morrocans mind their own business and are busy building their country.

Regardless of what they feel, Algeria has no influence in the middle east and their opinion does not matter.
Arab countries should start focusing on fixing their problems, blaming Egypt for all your failures will not solve your issues and now Tunisia is on the self-destruct mode, wake up before its too late.

Tunisia protest has nothing to do with bread...
Tunisia never blamed Egypt...since WE never spoke about Egypt... the only time Egypt is mentioned in the News is about "Terros" ;"Movies" and "Egypt Foreign policies" nothing else...
Tunisia is not in a self-destruct mode... and never she was... Protest on financial reforms are normal... Even in EU... and even in those so called "Advanced" socities... there is riots... Simple as that...
Tunisia is a Full Democracy with a fragile Economy...

As for Egypt...do not make it the light of the region... Till now she's still in the "process" to "start" a reform... it' snot because she's making new plants/A city/ or Factories that's she's out of "problems"... (Since every Arab country is doing so...) Egypt compared to the rest of the Arab world, including "Maghreb region" is way poorer... ( and other factors)
And Egypt Enjoyed/ and still Enjoy a foreign financial support that others will never have and never had... keep that in mind...

It's good to point weakness/problems on others, it could bring an healthy point of view... but making your own non existant, while, saying a biased truth about others...will not make your cause/opinion valid or "True". Balance is needed...

Best Regards.
