Finance Minister Mohamed Maait phoned in to several talk shows to discuss President Abdel Fattah El Sisi\u2019s decree earlier this week to extend tax payment deadlines and support key industries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Finance Ministry is working on getting its ducks in a row to cover the expenses from the state\u2019s economic support packages<\/strong>, including a three-month stipend for irregular workers and providing loans for the aviation industry, Maait told Yahduth fi Masr\u2019s Sherif Amer (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Lnw7-3kLtCs\">watch, runtime: 5:19<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt is committed to meeting its foreign debt obligations<\/strong>, Maait added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EGP 2 bn payout for export subsidies on the way:<\/strong> The government has already earmarked EGP 2 bn it will dole out in export subsidy arrears to exporters, Maait said on Al Tasea Masa\u2019an (<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/wivVWeEBi_0?t=356\">watch, runtime: 20:08<\/a>). El Sisi had ordered the Export Subsidy Fund to dole out at least 30% of the arrears it owes to exporters, with each company receiving at least EGP 5 mn apiece.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Legislation for tax postponements, exemptions coming soon:<\/strong> The ministry has coordinated with the House of Representatives to approve as soon as possible a bill that would allow Cabinet to either postpone tax deadlines or exempt specific industries from tax payments, Maait told Al Hayah Al Youm\u2019s Lobna Assal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Factories will likely get a real estate tax holiday:<\/strong> Cabinet and the House have preliminarily agreed to exempt factories from the real estate tax, Maait said, without delving into the details on how long the tax holiday would be. Tourism industry establishments will also be exempt from real estate taxes, but have yet to decide whether factories will also get the same treatment. <strong>Any tax relief will be contingent on businesses retaining all of their employees<\/strong>, Maait stressed (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7CnVVNxnqhk\">watch, runtime: 9:53<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>On that note: <strong>El Sisi\u2019s calls for the private sector to refrain from layoffs or salary cuts <\/strong>was a focal point for Masaa DMC\u2019s Ramy Radwan, who noted that the president promised the government will help businesses do just that (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dq77wha40hs\">watch, runtime: 3:56<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Qalaa Holding\u2019s investments are still going according to plan this year despite current conditions<\/strong>, Chairman Ahmed Heikal told Sherif Amer (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-4EMrDK_irM\">watch, runtime: 4:56<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=j3SFdgVSJNo\">watch, runtime: 5:53<\/a>). Heikal said he expects the crisis to last around a year, during which time the food and beverage and pharma industries are expected to be the best performers. The Qalaa boss also lauded the government\u2019s response to the covid-19 outbreak, saying it was measured and well-delivered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Health Ministry\u2019s daily report on covid-19 infections and deaths<\/strong> was also recapped by Min Masr\u2019s Reham Ibrahim (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=636wY1N_Fhc\">watch, runtime: 3:57<\/a>) and Masaa DMC\u2019s Ramy Radwan (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rngrxIaVobI\">watch, runtime: 2:55<\/a>.
