Egypt’s economy could easily grow at an annual 8% clip in the coming period, Abdel Moneim Said writes for Al Masry Al Youm, but it requires effort as well as learning from other countries’ successful experiences.

On a smaller level, Said adds that governorates themselves should attract also local investments by developing infrastructure.
