Egypt’s Next CrisisIn this article we read about a political meeting, in the town of Kafr Shukr, where a chicken farmer named Ayman Dahroug declares:
"The truth is, there are no leaders in Kafr Shukr anymore.
"It’s only the Muslim Brotherhood that works here now.
"They are in Kafr Shukr every day."
The Muslim Brotherhood buy imported meat at a discount and sell it to the poor in the town.
Cairo 1880
According to the New York Times article:
"Egypt is in the agony of self-discovery...
"Other Arab revolutions founder or lapse into civil wars...
"(In Egypt) workers are striking throughout the country...
"Many ... warn of a possible takeover by Islamists, who could assume power through the ballot box only to impose an Iran-style theocracy.
"These fears are not groundless; there are certainly people, in Egypt and elsewhere in the Arab world, who do not want to see a popular revolution succeed...

Egypt’s economy in free fall, they are rightly anxious that mass hunger, rising inflation and joblessness among Egypt’s 83 million people could imperil everything they have achieved so far.
"Already, there are signs of slippage: a street battle in a Cairo slum on May 7, sparked by sectarian rumors, left
a dozen dead and two churches in flames.
"Street crime and prison breaks are on the rise...
"A welter of Islamic groups has emerged since the revolution, many of them previously living in shadows.
"One of the best known is the Islamic Group, the militant faction responsible for terrorist campaigns in the 1980s and 1990s that killed hundreds of police, soldiers, civilians and foreign tourists in Egypt...
"One of the most common slogans in Tahrir Square during the revolution was 'bread, freedom, social justice'...

"It is tragic," I was told by Osama Leheta, an owner of one of Egypt’s oldest tourism companies.
"Production in Egypt has come to a near-standstill.
"Foreign reserves are being depleted.
"Our currency is under extreme pressure.
"
You could have millions of Egyptians with no food, and they will demolish everything in their path...
"Inflation is soaring to levels not seen in years. The results are going to be catastrophic..."
According to the New York Times article:
"The challenge of fighting corruption will remain...
"If police officers and civil servants continue to receive wages far too low to support a family, they will continue to demand kickbacks and bribes, and the societywide corruption that helped trigger the revolt will go on.

Most of the media has lied about Mubarak.

Kansas City Star for giving us the truth!

Egypt Inc. -- a look at the numbers), told us the following:
1. The protestors claimed that '40% of Egyptians' live below the poverty line.
The truth is that
less than 2% of Egyptians live below the poverty line.Compare that with 41.6% in India.
(The 'poverty line' is that which is recognised internationally)
2. The share in wealth of the poorest section of society has been increasing in Egypt.
Total household consumption expenditure per capita (in constant prices) rose by 2.2% annually in Egypt from 2000-08.

4. The under-five child mortality rate (per 1000) dropped to 25 in Egypt in 2008, from 53 in 1990.
Compare that with 89 in Pakistan, 69 in India, and 67 in South Africa.
5. The maternal mortality ratio (per 100,000 live births) was estimated to be 130 in Egypt in 2005, compared with 1,000 in Nigeria.

An improved business environment, including a low corporate tax rate of 20% stimulated foreign direct (private) investment. Egypt’s Inflows rose to 9.5 billion dollars in 2008 from 0.6 billion dollars in 1995.
Egypt’s stock market capitalization was valued at 91 billion dollars in 2009, a more than threefold increase from the year 2000.
10. Egypt’s merchandise exports increased more than seven fold from 1990 to 2007.
Inbound tourists spent 12.1 billion dollars in Egypt in 2008. The benefits were widely spread among the Egyptian people in the form of more jobs and higher incomes.

The net inflow of foreign official development assistance (ODA) to Egypt has fallen from 1.3% of Egypt’s Gross National Income in the year 2000 to 0.8% in 2008.
Egypt has been getting nothing from bodies such as the IMF and World bank.
