Madbouly’s Economy: Egypt Independent

In a passionate critique, the sincerity of Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly’s statements towards the poor and burden of price increases are called into question. The lack of tangible benefits for Egyptian citizens from increased energy production is a focal point, contrasting with neighboring countries like Jordan and Israel who are reducing fuel prices despite being at war.

The call to spare the people from quarterly price increases and the weight of financial burdens is resonant, especially with President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi urging a review of Egypt’s IMF program to alleviate pressure on the populace.

The contrast between previous wartime economic practices, which maintained social peace and affordable goods for citizens, and the current economic policies under Madbouly puts into question his ability to protect the country and foster economic reform. The challenge is laid out for Madbouly to make a lasting impact for Egyptians during his tenure as Prime Minister.
