Does Egyptian government have any master plan to develop the waterfront area of the Nile?
That’s why I am saying I am appreciating what I am enjoying wonderful times in urban riverside facilities. In Egypt, we don’t have it, so I wish and want Egypt to copy (the Korean style in riverside development and management). What you have done in the banks of the rivers can be also applied to the Nile of Egypt. So the people not rich can enjoy, in Egypt alongside the River, we have high-end hotels, boats, restaurants, cafes, gyms, everything just in luxury boats. But it is very expensive. It’s not for the public. You need to have a lot of money in your pocket, if you want to enjoy the river. This is what I don’t like. I want to everybody in Egypt also can enjoy the river and pleasant time without worrying about money.
