Bahia ShehabGUEST
I think it's not figures in as much as, yes, of course, there were important political figures, but for me, what I found is because of the war, there were certain social aspects that were very important, like the agricultural material that you are showing here from the industry.

Bahia ShehabGUEST
A lot of advertising for huge agricultural machines, to try because Egypt is an agricultural country or had an agricultural system.

Bahia ShehabGUEST
The other thing is the entertainment and the tobacco industry, which was fascinating for me to discover.

Bahia ShehabGUEST
And the reason for that is that the Greek and the Turkish businessmen found a really healthy setup because the government was providing support for entrepreneurs and business people to set up business in Egypt.
