New Crises : Sugar And Gas

There are new crises in the country as expected.

people are complaining that the prices of sugar have escalating rapidly reaching LE 6 or LE 7 per kilo not to mention that you can’t find the subsidized sugar in the market anymore. The government promised to solve the crisis as soon as possible by injecting tons of kilos from subsidized sugar in the market.

I remember that I studied tin school hat Egypt had a self sufficiency in sugar thanks for our domestic production from sugar in Upper Egypt. We  have been cultivating sugar cane since year 710 for God sake in Upper Egypt !! 

There are also complains across the country that there are shortage in gas cylinders just like last year !! We can’t blame Algeria this time as earlier this year.

I do not understand how a major producer and exporter of gas suffer from gas crisis and shortage in its domestic market. FYI the Egyptian government without taking the opinion of the Egyptian people as usual signed an new agreement with an Israeli company to export gas for the next 20 year !!!!

I believe that these are pseudo crises the Egyptian government is making so they can divert the attention of the public from things that really matters from political issues.
