What's new

Egypt's population officially reaches 93 millions: CAPMAS

??? Uhhh... have you seen Miss Lebanon? You generally want to avoid the Levant because they are far more liberal when it comes to women.
Yeah allot of Palestinian and Lebanese girls are leftists and feminists. I wonder how their men deal with them, especially their husbands.

Well I don't like the paint fake tan on with a brush, plastic entire face, shiny botox, 500% too much makeup look, but natural Lebanese are :flame:
 
I think they don't[emoji38] I have a sneaking suspicion that all the girls there are bi and that is why they have such small populations. :partay:
In Palestine? Lol

Though I can confirm the Arab feminists here in the UK though. Arab women seem very assertive, more than the men lol, especially the ones from the Maghreb and Sham.
 
Trolling aside.

The population growth is quite a challenge for Egypt. Obviously that growth will diminish or at least slow down once more Egyptians escape poverty and more people, in particular women, become educated. However since large families are encouraged in Arab culture this might be challenging at first. Anyway as long as it is a controlled growth and as long as Egypt keeps progressing it should not become a too big challenge. It's not like we lack space. Technological progress (inevitable) will also tackle issues such as water, food while economic growth will take care of housing, healthcare, education etc.

Don't let the Hijabis fool you. They are not what you think they are. Trust me. Keep a safe distance if possible.

Those are mostly Christians.

Interesting. Btw are Somalis considered Arabs or just another semetic people?
 
@Sharif al-Hijaz Man I wish we had that thread like whatever but for Arabs still around.

If we keep going off-topic then we are getting banned and the thread will be locked:lol:
 
Population growth coupled with lack of opportunity is actually a catastrophe. Even the wars in Arab world and Africa are often attributed to this factor. More and more youth competing for even the lowest paid job positions and frustration created by this is often vent on government and the governments not being able to keep up are factors even for Arab Spring. Even we as a planet are consuming more resources than we can sustain. Sooner or later we can all die together miserably unless we bring the population under control or invent technologies to combat the consequences. There was a whole research paper about this but now I am too lazy to read and I should spend my time learning German.
 
On a serious note, with such a large population, Egypt should be a major power(in fact, the leading Arab one)to contend with. They just need the economic,military and industrial might to be a giant in their own right.

We would be a giant if my country didn't stick to bloody socialism. Screwed our economy and our rights. You would think the government would get the hint and start privatizing companies.

Please leave my thread, I don't have the time to educate you lot.
 

The announcement by the public statistics body, comes only one day after Egypt's Minister of Social Solidarity Ghada Wali described population growth in Egypt as an "actual catastrophe" that deserves to be fought against, just like the country's war against terrorism.

Egyptian officials have warned repeatedly of the steep rise in population, saying it hinders the country's development plans.

From 2006 to 2016, Egypt's population rose by 17.3 million, according to earlier statements by CAPMAS.

CAPMAS has said that the country's current population growth rate is five times that of developed countries and double the rate of other developing countries.

She's not exaggerating. This is a far more serious problem for Egypt than terrorism and concrete steps beyond education on contraception need to be taken. We need to actively limit population growth to a sustainable level.

You want to abandon socialism a la Chavismo and join the corrupt Western/capitalist system?:taz:

You should learn a thing or two about freedom of expression while you are at it. If you expect people to cheerlead you, don't post it in internet where people can have their own opinions.
