Set in the UAE, this version caters to contestants and viewers from all over the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The set-up:<\/strong> The premise of the show is finding love without being distracted by the material \u2014 namely physical appearances \u2014 pushing the contestants to form deeper connections based on character. To achieve this, the men and women participating have private conversations on either side of a wall in individual pods. They go on multiple of these \u201cdates,\u201d and speak to each other without seeing the person in the other pod. Once two contestants decide to be together, they are married within four weeks. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What to expect, habibi?<\/strong> The inclusion of Arabs from various countries and backgrounds makes for interesting dates. We see contestants with traditional Arab values disagree with people with more modern, westernized ways of living, and not just between couples. There are working women who will choose their careers above all else, and more conservative women who are looking for a provider to take care of. Some of the men are possessive and advise the other male contestants against speaking to certain women they\u2019ve taken a liking to \u2014 approximately 3 minutes into the pod date \u2014 and others who describe themselves as womanizers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Usually it\u2019s only up to the couple to decide to get married, but Arab conventions tweak <\/strong><strong>the rules a little.<\/strong> If love matches are formed, the parents\u2019 blessing is still necessary.

style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The players involved: <\/strong>The private sector companies included El Sewedy Electrometer, ElAraby Group,

Designs for the routers are expected to be finalized by January 2025. From the three companies presenting, one of the designs will be chosen as the winner \u2014 with possibility of more than one being chosen if multiple companies present suitable designs. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We should see locally made routers from Telecom Egypt in the market around 3Q 2025: <\/strong>The winning company will be given a three-month grace period after completing the design to sign the official agreement and finalize the initial quantities and production stage, a government source told Enterprise. Under the agreement, the winning company will deliver the first batch of routers to Telecom Egypt within six months of the contract signing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>It\u2019s all part of a larger plan: <\/strong>The router manufacturing plan is part of the government\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/itida.gov.eg\/English\/Programs\/EgyptMakesElectronics\/Pages\/default.aspx\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Egypt<\/a><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/itida.gov.eg\/English\/Programs\/EgyptMakesElectronics\/Pages\/default.aspx\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Makes Electronics initiative<\/a>, which <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/c709e9be-1bea-4777-8fc9-13a5abdf67db\/where-we-stand-on%253cmark%253e-egypt%253c%2Fmark%253e%25e2%2580%2599s-plans-to-localize%253cmark%253e-electronics%253c%2Fmark%253e-manufacturing\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">aims to deepen local manufacturing and reduce imports<\/a> of electronic products.

Vodafone Egypt also partnered up with ElSewedy Electric to begin producing advanced communications equipment in the country as part of the telecoms company\u2019s efforts and strategy to support the localization of electronic manufacturing to help promote Egyptian-made products, Vodafone Egypt told Enterprise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>As were e& Egypt: <\/strong>The Egyptian arm of UAE state-owned telecoms company e& in collaboration with Sico Egypt recently announced the start of local production for Egypt\u2019s first 4.5G router. Sico Egypt Chairman Mohamed Salem highlighted that the company\u2019s focus is to enhance local manufacturing capabilities and provide advanced technological products that meet market needs with high quality and competitive prices. He noted that Sico was the first company to offer a locally made smartphone and is now delivering Egypt\u2019s first 4.5G router, designed and manufactured entirely in Egypt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>It\u2019s about more than meeting local demand:<\/strong> The initiative aims to localize the manufacturing of routers so that they can stop relying on imports by the start of 2026, our government source told us.
