Amazing Facts for Egyptians
I have received so much feedback from my friends who read the last post; in addition to Annonymous's and Badr's comments. In a conversation one of my friends asked me to stop comparing Egypt to European countries because there is a major difference between the European capabilities and the Egyptian capabilities.
Well, here I compare Egypt to African countries which are actually so poor that we sympathize with them.
Here we go:
Ten African countries have a better income per capita than Egypt, some of them do not have one third of our natural resources.
Luxomburg has the highest income per capita in the world with $55,400. And no comment.
AT THE SAME TIME
Ironically, we are the third highest country in Africa receiving international aids: we recieve 1.2 billion dollars a year. Take a look:
I think comparing Egypt to African countries hurts more than comparing it to European countries.

Egypt certainly has much undiscovered potential. I would love to visit some day.
