The Minister of Local Development, Manal Awad, stated during a press conference at the New Alamein Festival that President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has been successful in improving the standard of living for citizens by eradicating slums in less than 10 years.
She mentioned that the Ministry of Local Development will collaborate with United Media Services to maintain these achievements by increasing people’s awareness.
The second edition of the New Alamein Festival kicked off on July 11 and will continue to August 30.
It features a wide range of artistic and sporting events, following the success of the festival's first edition last year.
In accordance with the state's plan to reduce electricity load consumption, New Alamein Festival will hold 50 percent of its activities during the day.
It was announced during the press conference that 50 percent of the festival’s activities will be during the day, in addition to relying on solar energy and electric generators.
Given the current circumstances, the Alamein Festival has decided to launch its second edition under the slogan 'Alamein, the World,' raising the beloved Palestinian flag to flutter freely, with pride and dignity, alongside the Egyptian flag.
The festival has also decided to allocate 60% of the profits from the second edition of Alamein festival to support our people in Palestine.
This means that every Egyptian or Arab family participating in the festival's activities and events will be supporting a Palestinian family.
