Egyptian Minister Mounir Fakhri:
Solving energy problem to implement development plans
Egyptian Minister Mounir Fakhri
Cairo - Arab Today
Solving an energy problem in Egypt is key to implementing comprehensive development plans in the country, says the minister of industry and trade.
General Electric International is currently working on a number of projects in the field of power generation, Mounir Fakhri Abdel Nour said in a statement issued after his meeting with a delegation of the company earlier Wednesday.
Those are the projects agreed during the Egypt Economic Development Conference (EEDC), which was held in the Red Sea resort city of Sharm el Sheikh mid March, Abdel Nour said.
Hopefully, the projects would help narrow the gap between electricity needs of production sectors and what is actually available, the minister noted.
Abdel Nour said the meeting also tackled investment opportunities, especially that GE is seeking to expand its business in Egypt.

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews.
