President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi on Sunday directed continued and intensified efforts to curb inflation and increase spending on health, education and social protection.

El-Sisi made the remarks during a meeting with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly to review a range of political, economic and social files on the government’s agenda.

Madbouly outlined efforts to expand social protection measures for the most vulnerable, as well as ongoing work to develop the education and healthcare sectors.

He also reviewed plans to advance comprehensive development, attract investment, increase exports and localize industry under Egypt Vision 2030.

The president stressed the need to secure sufficient supplies of strategic goods to meet the country’s needs in light of current regional and global developments.

He also underscored the importance of monitoring markets and ensuring the availability of food commodities.

El-Sisi also reviewed preparations with the prime minister for the inauguration of the new campus of L’Université Senghor (Senghor University) in Borg El Arab later this month.

The president said the project reflects strong cooperation between Egypt and its international partners and supports development and capacity-building efforts in Africa.

He highlighted the university’s role in providing an integrated educational environment for students from African and Francophone countries.
