      Most of it was self-inflicted, beyond the population increase. Egypt's agricultural infrastructure is decrepit and very inefficient (irrigation systems are old and leaky). It is also geared towards cash crop production, like cotton and sugar. Both are very water intensive. Wheat production has made a comeback recently (wonder why) but is still held back by poor infrastructure.

He was widely supported by Hindenburg, the business community, the general public.

Also by building a new capital, He's coup proofing his regime by removing The center of governance from Cairo itself, Making it much more difficult for the masses to seize control of government buildings during a revolution by placing distance between the ruled and the rulers, The avenues of the new capital are very wide, which makes it difficult to barricade them and makes moving troops much more easy, and finally The government is implementing a mass surveillance program within The new capital itself that will be on par with what we see in China. It's indeed a vanity project but also serves practical needs of the regime, despite how awful it is.

      Successive governments have been making it hard for farmers to plant grain, with prices, regulations and so forth.
      They invested in some projects to increase grain supply, but without expert opinion and to only to placate corrupt businessmen.

    Egyptian here, there is many things the video did either misunderstood, ignored intentionally, or was totally wrong about, such as following I'm stating below and lived through them as an Egyptian:
    • Ancient Egypt is at least 7200 years old and not 6000, also, we live on 7% of the nile and not 4% as he stated, in addition to Egypt fertility is 15 for south, 2 for north which round up to 8 kids in average, not 5 as he stated above.
    • Al-Sisi manipulate religion, he cause the unjust, chaos, and destruction then dare to say your prophet lived in tougher conditions, we are not even had the right to call ourselves believers, and twist verses interpretations to show us that what he do of evil is supported by Quran, by most Sheikhs, Al-Sisi is recognized as an infidel for all crimes he done against Islam, all muslims he is responsible for their death, and all the unjust and destruction he spread through the lands, in addition to be a Zionist and aiding Israel against Gaza and is responsible for all deaths as Netanyahu.
    • Wheat prices doubled in psan of 3 days then tripled, it didn't just go to 60% as he stated, and Eish Baladi translate into Local Bread.
    • Zahr Gas field issue wasn't mentioned by him at all, Egypt agreed on exporting Gas to Israel, in which they were in a contract that should've ended but Al-Sisi renewed it after destroying the entire Gas field, Egyptian Army ordered engineers there to exhaust Gas from there at the fastest rate possible, engineers said doing so will mix Gas with Water, causing the Gas Well to no longer be viable for usage, render it useless, Army threatened them under Al-Sisi orders, and engineers were either to face jail or obey, in which by doing as they warned, the gas well mixed with water and no longer usable.
    • So to export the agreed upon share of Gas to Israel, Al-Sisi used the natural share of Egypt that is self-sufficent to support Israel in which he cuts electricity fromt he entirety of Egypt for 4 hrs a day to support that deal with Israel.
    • Al-Sisi jailed Ahmed A-Tantawi after preventing him from practicing his rights of elections, jailing all people who went to elect him, kidnapped studens from all colleges of Egypt, kidnapped all governmental employees from their works and forced them to elect him, anyone refusing was accused for treason and jailed and/or excuted for not following such orders.
    • New capital isn't build as an investment project, it's a military project in which to isolate the capital from downtown, preventing any revolutions from holding government hostage and is built as a military base to exterminate all citizens in case the poor thought of getting even remotely near it, also, the poor aren't allowed there or allowed to even work there which add to the fuel.
    • The growth in population isn't real, Egyptian aren't able to get married, half of the population at least don't have the right to marry and can't even dream to afford it, people who give birth no longer want children, southern Egyptian that used to give birth to 15 are now sitting at up to 5 kids instead of 15, the raise in population is due to the immigration of Syrians and Sudanese, in which added around 15m total into Egyptian's population which government did willingly and blame us for.
    • Lastly, FFS, Hosni Mubarak was doing projects in favor of "Egyptian Investors" to generate opportunities for Egyptians and doing projects that directly benifit Egyptian, Al-Sisi's goal is to eradicate all of the poor class of Egypt, and all projects are exclusively favoring to the rich elite class, it doesn't even affect the middle class of Egypt.

      Egypt is also the safe house and the leader of the Middle East, where as you can see, we have ten million Sudanese refugees, not counting the Syrian and Palestinian refugees as well.

Ethiopia building a dam which threatens the Nile. Egypt is a ticking bomb that will explode and ruin everything if this continues. It will explode if a revolution happens. So things must be fixed up fast. Those refugees are also causing a lot of instability and pressure, there was many accounts of Sudanese ruining supermarkets, ruining hospital equipment (he said he wasn’t being tended to, even though it was extremely crowded and many ppl were waiting just like him but he decided to play victim of racism) those people entered the country for free and are having the same benefits as an Egyptian and yet they’re causing so much instability and even putting up posters claiming that Terran and sanafeer are Sudanese islands. It is honestly sad and extremely dangerous what’s going on in Egypt. Muslims pressuring Egypt to help Gaza also doesn’t help, they’re putting all the blame and responsibility on Egypt, and yet talking abt Arabic and Muslim unity, is Egypt the only country there is to help? They say Gazans are Muslim like us why don’t you help them as if we’re not helping other Muslims too (ahem Sudanese) but i guess not cause they’re not attacked by Israel so it doesn’t count apparently.

    The only solution is industrialisation to improve the productiveness of that huge population. Turn that population into an asset rather than a deficit.

      Industrialization isn't some kind of magic wand you wave at will to fix an economy. Egypt itself does not have an entrepreneurial class to commission mass production of any truly valuable goods, with the exception of the army who prefer invest into their Swiss bank accounts. And Western investors don't trust Arab countries to locate their capital there, and for good reason. Sure, Egypt-manufactured Adidas shoes would cost way less in both manufacturing and shipping to Europe, but who's gonna guarantee that Egyptian workers will work as efficiently as Chinese? Or that the factory will not burn to the ground at the next bread riot?

      @@yarpen26 industrialisation is a necessary step for any nation that wants to become developed, it might be difficult at first as you correctly point out, but it’s something that has to happen.
      You state that the current problem is lack of foreign investment in Industry, but there are risk taking states like China who are willing to spend billions, as they are already doing in the construction of the new capital, so it’s not as unrealistic as you make it.
      Egypt might have occasional riots or tensions but it always finds a way to hold itself together and businesses, factories, industries have been operating safely in the country for decades.

Projects such as: "New Cairo", "Extension of the Suez Canal". In which Egypt and countries like "China" have invested billions of dollars, are not seen as economically profitable so far. In addition, Egypt is the largest importer of wheat in the world, and since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine and before, wheat prices have risen at 96 dollars per ton. Egypt receives loans from the World Bank in the amount of over 500 million dollars in order to purchase wheat and take care of the most basic needs that it needs to take care of its citizens.

      @@KaiserFranzJosefI Egypt was Arab until the Muslim conquest of the 6th and 7th century, during which they looted and destroyed 100s of temples, destroying history in the process. But hey white man is the bad guy here.

    I am Egyptian and I say that Egypt is in a state of growth and building many national projects, although it is under an economic and political siege. This video is false as it depicts that Sisi is the one who destroyed all this, although he took power and is in a much worse situation.

    Hmm, a few errors: the canal was built during ottoman- Egypt rule, not british rule. Rather, the canal initially bankrupted the country, leading to British rule.

      What French times 💀? It was built during the time of Khedive Ismail, the architect was just French + a prototype of the canal had already been there since the time of the Pharoahs. Also, France as a whole never colonized Egypt, Napoleon just controlled large parts of the Nile Delta. ​@@HijrahSigma
