Meanwhile, Kelma Akhira host Lamees El Hadidi gave some airtime to tomorrow\u2019s MPC meeting, while other shows covered Trade Minister Ahmed Samir\u2019s visit to Turkey and the latest weather forecast. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>But first: A change to our scheduled programming\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Lamees is off, but Al Forsa is on: <\/strong>El Hadidi announced last night that Kelma Akhira will be taking a month off the air while she heads for vacation.

S ome people reported that the timings were different to those laid about by the cabinet on Monday, and others said they lasted longer than the hour promised by ministers. Other areas reported having no blackouts at all, despite being listed in the documents ( <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RIDSec5Lvzk\" style=\"\">watch, runtime, 3:41<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This really didn\u2019t go according to plan: <\/strong>El Barageel area saw a one-off four-hour-long blackout, residents in Aswan had their power cut for one hour every four hours, Helwan three hours at intervals, and Mohandiseen was treated to an unscheduled hour without the lights.

The government has spared the Matrouh, Red Sea and South Sinai governorates from blackouts on the basis that they\u2019re important to the country\u2019s tourism sector. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Spare a thought for the people manning the government\u2019s complaints hotline: <\/strong>Masa\u2019a DMC\u2019s Ramy Radwan tested the 121 hotline for complaints about the blackout schedules, and reminded viewers that the Electricity Ministry didn\u2019t rule out the possibility of blackouts lasting longer than one hour due to technical issues ( <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=u_sjWfMolg4\" style=\"\">watch, runtime: 8:05<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>INTEREST RATES-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>THE PROBLEM- <\/strong><strong>Interest rate<\/strong><strong> or exchange rate: <\/strong>The Central Bank of Egypt is unlikely to go for a rate hike in this Thursday\u2019s meeting as it would do little to address inflation and bring in portfolio flows, given the presence of a parallel market and the deeply negative real interest rates, banking expert Tarek Metwally told El Hadidi ( <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-o5idS1DucE\" style=\"\">watch, runtime: 5:14<\/a>).
