bb-egypt-011.jpg 6th of October -Tarek El Hussein (guy with the contract in front the house) "when I come here 6 years back my part of city, which is the oldest was looking like that-empty. It was difficult. We got walls, windows, but no running water, not even one shop...even now we do not have cinema place., but at that time, we did not have even bakery, bread came with buses from Cairo... we could not make it at home, since we did not have any gas and electricity shortage was frequent ...there were hardly any buses from here and you could only dream about telephone...Fleet, factory, school and mosque was all that was here.. I was about to give up but luckily it started to turn all that.." Our first years we were living here without one shop and trees were only 20 cm big... we got first shop after 5 years and trees grew up till first floor now. They build amusement park and swimming pool. We are even becoming trendy.. On the road to Cairo they are building district for reach people in fact surrounded by golf curt... Today we are 250 000 thousand inhabitants - nearly one third of blocks are inhabited... another tan years and city will be a life... AND why did I left Cairo.. I was born in Imbaba - one of the poorest districts where on small peace of land along the Nile millions are squeezed. With my family I was living in a room with 15 people... I could never by a fleet in Cairo and my children wold have to play in the middle of garbage on the street...Now my fleet is at least three times more valuable then when I bought it... I came here even I did not believe that it is possible to live in a desert... But it is" |
