Sisi Calls for Realistic Solutions

President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi said Egypt cannot address all its challenges simultaneously through idealistic proposals, emphasizing the need for practical solutions that reflect available resources and national priorities.

Speaking during an urban development session at Egypt Forum 2026, attended by Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, the president discussed infrastructure, transportation, housing and efforts to improve living conditions.

El-Sisi also directed the government and Tahya Misr Fund to cooperate on building 200,000 rental housing units, with both sides sharing the costs equally.

The session reviewed urban expansion, new cities, road networks, public transportation, water services and sanitation projects.

Separately, an agreement with Talaat Moustafa Group was announced for four major mixed-use developments, with a reported value of EGP 11 trillion.

The president also stressed the importance of completing projects under the Decent Life initiative by 2030 and strengthening cooperation with the private sector
