Egypt prepares to start move to new capital, away from the chaos of Cairo

That would be a big mistake in my opinion. I can understand infrastructure and wht not is a big issue, but the location of Cairo will never change the importance of the city and whoever governs Cairo will have a big say in Egypt.

Perhaps expanding outwards and at the same time demolishing bad structures in Cairo could spreadout the crowdedness.

You’d need to establish a solid working group consisting of foreign consultants for Cairo. As city development left in the hands of domestic consultants seem to yield incompetence. I.e Istanbul in the hands of AKP.

That is in another words:
"We have screwed up with the capital, and government is abandoning it for comport of bureaucrats and MPs.
You commoners will have to live in this mess."

the new capital will be like a political economical capital
but cairo remains cairo irreplaceable
and cairo now witness a massive repairs of the roads and infrastructure

IMO good move like Istanbul and Ankara. Didn't we do that too, why are you criticizing?

New city it means new opportunities and new living spaces. Congrats.

i agree with both of you
the project of the new capital is an urgent need
but i see it can be held for 5 or 10 years
i think we now need more increasing in productive projects

Ankara was more about geopolitics then anything. Istanbul is a relatively flat plane, its vulnerable to invasion or at least was back then. You can't have your power centre so vulnerable.

For Istanbul to be safe you need the mountain range in Bulgaria as your border. Still to this day i never see the border of western Istanbul complete, you can't have the largest city in europe so venerable.

Hey, we Indonesians are moving our Capital too.

 

[Ryder]

Seriously modern urbanisation has ruined a lot of these old cities.
