The Sisi administration’s “A Decent Life” initiative is dominating the front pages of the country’s three main state-owned dailies (Al Ahram | Al Akhbar | Al Gomhuria). In keeping with the theme of development, Al Akhbar’s front page also features updates on the Tahya Misr Fund’s spending on irrigation projects. Meanwhile, Al Ahram and Al Gomhuria are both carrying stories on El Sisi instructing Higher Education Minister Khaled Abdel Ghaffar to boost scientific research in the country.
