  • Egypt's New Administrative Capital will be the biggest city in Africa, breaking world records in several metrics, such as the tallest building in the world and the biggest military base.
    However, the government has gone to extreme lengths to finance this project, which can drive this country to bankruptcy. There are many flaws to this mega project, which will not benefit the majority of the Egyptian people.

    there's the LRT as well which has a high capacity and faster than the metro
    both the LRT and the monorail are connected to the metro, the monorail at cairo stadium in nasr city and the LRT at adly mansour station which is a big transport hub to the east of cairo. there's also plans for another LRT connecting to the currently u der construction metro line 4 at el rehab (part of new cairo at its north)

I am still looking for one country on this planet where its head of state goes on TV and tells its population nothing but the bare naked truth as to what is causing what to happen.

      This city was not built for the Egyptians, but for the international elite. The UN paid Egypt $10 billion to build this city. Egyptian politics don't give a shit about the normal population. This city will be shielded from the rest of the country. Drinking water supply through the Nile and desalination plants, checkpoints, comprehensive camera surveillance.
      This will be "Elysium" like in the movie of the same name. In Revelation 17 & 18 the city is called Wh ore Babylon.

    Thank you for shining the light on this disaster that dictator SiSi is burning the Egyptians hard earned money on. The main reason sisi is building this place is to be far away from the Egyptians when they start the long due revolution to throw him and his criminal army. He will have time to run away "fly" to his uncles country Israel where his mother Maleeka Tetanee and his uncle are buried. Before the Egyptians get him. He is so scared to endup like Libya dictator.
