Kaplan, who is considered a dove, said that \u201cdespite stubbornly low inflation in the US, he was increasingly concerned that historically low unemployment rates \u2014 which this month hit a 17-year record \u2014 required heightened vigilance,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/db1b771c-c8e6-11e7-ab18-7a9fb7d6163e\">the FT reports<\/a>.<\/p><p><strong>The House of Representatives\u2019 ICT Committee will discuss today the Ride-hailing Apps <\/strong><strong>Act<\/strong>, which is meant to regulate work for <strong>Uber, Careem<\/strong> and others.

It is yet unclear if the companies had agreed to alleged provisions in the bill that mandate they submit data on customers to the authorities.<\/p><p><strong>Will there be a wave of IPO announcements as listed companies scramble to meet the <\/strong><strong>new regulation setting a deadline for IPOs:<\/strong> A number of companies will have to scramble to meet listing regulations which <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2017\/08\/01\/what-were-tracking-on-01-august-2017\/\">came into effect on Tuesday<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/alborsanews.com\/2017\/11\/15\/1065036\">according to Al Borsa<\/a>. Among other things, the regulations give companies one month to finish an IPO from the time they get approval to list their shares. Extensions for some could be in the works, EGX chief Mohamed Farid suggested. According to Farid, some 11 listed companies whose shares have not yet begun trading are now working to meet the regulations.<\/p><p><strong>EGX releases list of possible companies who are at least intending to follow through:<\/strong> After Farid\u2019s comments, the EGX put out a press release listing four companies that have recently complied with one aspect of the regs or another, including DICE Sport and Casual Wear and Obourland. The release also names 19 companies which have announced they have begun procedures to comply, including QNB Al Ahly, Orange Egypt, and Arab Dairy. <a href=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/2017\/11\/704.pdf\">You can view the full list here (pdf)<\/a>.<\/p><p>Separately, the <strong>EGX\u2019s deputy head said the bourse was in talks with 70 companies<\/strong> inviting them to list.<\/p><p><strong>The US embassy\u2019s <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/eg.usembassy.gov\/u-s-embassy-helps-egyptians-hone-skills-global-entrepreneurship-week\/\"><strong>Global Entrepreneur Week<\/strong><\/a><strong> continues today and until 19 November<\/strong>, with activities taking place at main headquarters in Cairo and the consulate in Alexandria.<\/p><p><strong>Sudan is learning a thing or two from Egypt \u2014 on the FX front:<\/strong> Sudan will be taking steps to close the gap between the parallel and official currency rates with an eye to ending the former by the end of 2019, Sudan\u2019s Minister of State for Finance Magdi Hassan Yassin <a href=\"http:\/\/af.reuters.com\/article\/commoditiesNews\/idAFL8N1NK7P0\">told Reuters on Tuesday<\/a>.

Senior housing ministry official Nefisa Hashem told Amer that the amendments require building licenses to be issued within one month, a process that had previously dragged on for up to two years. If the licensing authority happens to miss the one-month deadline, it is obligated to explain the delay within one week (how reassuring).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amer also had a chat with Ismail cabinet spokesperson Ashraf Sultan about alternative<\/strong><strong>scenarios in case GERD talks completely fall through<\/strong>. Sultan said that Egypt\u2019s strategy will remain grounded in its framework agreement with Ethiopia and Sudan, and that Egypt remains keen on communication and flexibility, <strong>but warned that \u201call options are on the table.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sultan also phoned in to Al Hayah Al Youm to tell host Tamer Amin that <strong>the government is<\/strong><strong>establishing a human rights unit within each ministry<\/strong> to ensure citizens\u2019 rights are protected. The government\u2019s human rights strategy will also require cooperation with NGOs and communication with international organizations to keep them abreast of the state\u2019s efforts to promote human rights. Completing the legislative foundation for human rights is also a top priority, Sultan said (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nUR45AW41EU\">watch, runtime: 4:20<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>In keeping with the theme of miscellany, Kol Youm\u2019s Amr Adib<\/strong> talked about everything from singer Sherine Abdel Wahab\u2019s \u201cmockery\u201d of the Nile to the latest on former Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Al Hariri. Adib noted that French President Emmanuel Macron has invited Al Hariri to visit Paris, but said that it would be best for Al Hariri to return to Lebanon, even if only temporarily (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=t1qhY7X1cBo\">watch, runtime: 4:43<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Supreme Media Council head Makram Mohamed Ahmed told Masaa DMC\u2019s Osama Kamal<\/strong>that the council coordinated with Al Azhar and Dar Al Iftaa to compile a list of 50 Muslim scholars who have been licensed to issue religious edicts (fatwas). The list will be circulated among various media outlets to ensure unlicensed edicts are no longer broadcasted (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d1IDbk6PUNI\">watch, runtime: 8:13<\/a>).

The town was set up on the Mediterranean side of the Sinai near Rafah and was thought of at the time as a potential barrier between Egypt and Israel in the case that the Sinai would be returned. The prefabricated buildings were supposed to house 350 settler families by the spring of 1976 and expectations were that Yamit could one day house a deep sea port for Israel. Jewish families were, to say the least, recalcitrant when the handover back to Egypt took place. Israeli authorities had to resort to forced evacuations before razing the settlement.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/image-of-the-day\/\">IMAGE OF THE DAY<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"637470\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"637470\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">6<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">EGYPT IN THE NEWS<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/11\/16\/sherine-banned-from-performing-in-egypt\/\">\r\n                            Sherine banned from performing in Egypt                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2017\/11\/16\/sherine-banned-from-performing-in-egypt\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
