    Invest in Egypt Logistics & Transportation Invest In Egypt The Global Crossroad Invest in Logistics and Transportation 1 Invest in Egypt Logistics & Transportation QUICK FACTS Throughput at the Suez Canal will remain healthy in 2015, following a strong year in 2014. There was a 6.75% year-on-year rise in revenues to USD5.46bn in 2014,compared to USD5.11bn recorded in 2013, as the waterway benefited from delays to the opening of the Panama Canal expansion. The country's location on the Mediterranean and Red Seas affords it access to major East-West shipping routes, and its Suez Canal-based ports feature as stops on a number of these routes. Egypt's Suez Canal ensures that the country is a major player in the global maritime sphere. The interim government has received substantial financial assistance for Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait - indicating regional support. The Suez Canal enjoyed strong throughput growth in 2014. The Egyptian infrastructure sector is picking up, which will boost dry bulk and project cargo volumes at Egypt's ports and on its roads. 2 Invest in Egypt Logistics & Transportation SOCIOECONOMIC IMPORTANCE A new navigation channel could increase throughput at East Port Said. Rising Suez Canal charges should see a further growth in revenues. The Suez Canal is benefiting from delays to the Panama Canal expansion, attracting new services. There is major investment of USD8.5bn being channeled into expanding the Suez Canal. Low wages in global terms are advantages for foreign investors, particularly for those wishing to use Egypt as a base for export-oriented manufacturing Air freight handled at Cairo International Airport is set to grow by 3.0% in 2015 to reach 399,780 tones.

  • Human Impact on Sediment Mass Movement and Submergence of Ancient Sites in the Two Harbours of Alexandria, Egypt
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Human impact on sediment mass movement and submergence in Alexandria 337 Human impact on sediment mass movement and submergence of ancient sites in the two harbours of Alexandria, Egypt Jean-Daniel Stanley, Thomas F. Jorstad & Franck Goddio Stanley, J.-D., Jorstad, T.F. & Goddio, F.; Human impact on sediment mass movement and submergence of ancient sites in the two harbours of Alexandria, Egypt. Norwegian Journal of Geology, Vol. 86, pp. 337-350. Trondheim 2006. ISSN 029-196X. Historic records indicate that structures built in and around the two harbours of Alexandria, Egypt, were periodically damaged by powerful events such as earthquakes and tsunamis. This geoarchaeological study reveals that human activity in nearshore and port settings has also triggered sedi- ment deformation and construction failure. Analysis of radiocarbon-dated Holocene cores and submerged archaeological excavations record a sig- nificant incidence of sediment destabilization and mass movement in the ports since human occupation in the 1st millennium B.C. Anthropogenic substrate failure is documented from about the time of the city’s founding by the Greeks in the 4th century B.C. to the present. Construction on unconsolidated sediment substrates was a factor of sediment destabilization, at times in conjunction with earthquakes, storm waves and tsunamis. Engineer reports on port construction during the past century, however, show substrate failure can also occur by building and other human activity, independently of high-energy natural events. Some recent failure and associated mass flows in the harbours were triggered by loading effects associ- ated with emplacement of large structures on weak, water-saturated substrates.

  • Jewish Experiences with Water in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt
    Waters of the Exodus: Jewish Experiences with Water in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt by Nathalie LaCoste A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department for the Study of Religion University of Toronto © Copyright by Nathalie LaCoste 2016 Waters of the Exodus: Jewish Experiences with Water in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt Nathalie LaCoste Doctor of Philosophy Department for the Study of Religion University of Toronto 2016 Abstract This study examines how the fluvial environment shaped the writing of Jewish narratives in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt (300 BCE – 115 CE). It focuses on four texts that narrate the Exodus story and analyzes them in terms of how water in Egypt is described and how elements of the environment—such as the Nile or the Red Sea—are characterized in their retellings. I argue that the natural environment informed Jewish writings through the incorporation of new fluvial terminology, development of different conceptions of water, and the adoption of positive attitudes towards the environment. These features, found specifically in texts composed in Egypt, demonstrate the power of the environment to shape a foundational Jewish narrative. Previous studies on the Jews of Egypt have examined their lives in political, social, or economic terms, with little acknowledgement of the physical environment and its role in daily and religious life. By focusing on water, this work traces the emergence of distinct practices developed in response to the environment, such as the location of places of worship and emerging employment opportunities. Such characteristics distinguish the communities of Egypt from both other Jews and non-Jews.

  • Alexandria City and Governorate Endowments
    Alexandria City and Governorate endowments: Alexandria is widely acknowledged as one of the most ancient and glorious cities of the world, with a central position in commercial maritime activities in the Mediterranean Sea and numerous outstanding landmarks such as the ancient lighthouse of Pharos—one of the Seven Wonders of the World—and the ancient Alexandria library contributing to its prominence. Even though such treasures have not survived, the Government of Egypt is nonetheless committed to supporting Alexandria’s rediscovery of its rich cultural heritage and economic prominence. The government has worked with many countries to revive the city’s archeological and cultural heritage, including most notably the reconstruction of the new Bibliotheca Alexandrina with the support of UNESCO and many donor countries at the same location of the ancient library. The new library houses some 4 million books, 3 museums, 5 research institutes, several exhibition halls, an advanced conference center with 3,000 seats, and a planetarium. Today, Alexandria is one of the major cities on the Mediterranean Sea, stretching linearly along a coastline of about 70 kilometers to the north and bound by Lake Marioutt to the South. The city of Alexandria, considered as Egypt’s second capital by virtue of its location and population size, houses the large majority of Alexandria Governorate’s estimated 3.7 million inhabitants in 2001 (18.7% live in rural areas). Alexandria Governorate covers an area of 2,819 km2, of which 1,100 km2 are inhabited (these include 775km2 of agricultural lands and the rest—12% of the total area of the Governorate—in urbanized lands).

Wight, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT As one of the most visible signs of the modern world, the myriad of shopping places and types can be considered as a valuable lens through which to examine the contemporary city. In Alexandria, Egypt, the situation was particularly interesting because retail space was moving in two polarized directions: exclusivity and entropy. First, there was an emphasis on creating high-end restricted modern space while at the same time, low-end retail, both modern and traditional, were proliferating and becoming less organized. The high-end modern retail created exclusive spaces in which traditional forms of gendered space could be upheld, although in a reconfigured manner.

  • Sustainable Waterfront Development—A Case Study of Bahary in Alexandria, Egypt
    Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture 11 (2017) 380-394 doi: 10.17265/1934-7359/2017.04.007 D DAVID PUBLISHING Sustainable Waterfront Development—A Case Study of Bahary in Alexandria, Egypt Riham A. Ragheb Department of Architectural Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Pharos University, Alexandria 21311, Egypt Abstract: Sustainable waterfront development is about creating a vision for an area and then deploying the skills and resources to realize it after involving a dialogue with the customer within an area. Also, it draws together many strands of place making such as environmental responsibility, social equity and economic viability, planning and transportation policy, architectural design into the creation of places of beauty and distinct identity. The development of waterfronts shapes communities around the water bodies and reflects the ability of cities to adapt to altered economic and social circumstances. The aim of this paper is to identify some approaches for applying sustainable waterfront development. By respecting the quality of life and defining sustainability in a broader context, a case will be made for enhancing the waterfront development, through the place making criteria, analyzing the Bahary waterfront in Alexandria, Egypt. The paper concludes some recommendations to develop Bahary waterfront based on the principles that are collected from the theoretical study in order to well design a waterfront responded to the wishes of the community. Key words: Place making, quality of life, Bahary, sustainable waterfront development. 1. Introduction potentials by the application of the sustainable waterfront development approaches are analyzed. The waterfront is a unique and irreplaceable Then the paper concludes the important resource, also, its boundaries are difficult to determine recommendations to improve this area in order to because they are contained mixed use development, achieve sustainable waterfront development.
