The price hikes are crucial to fund maintenance works worth EGP 55 mn and renovations to improve the quality of service, Arafat said. The minister also said that it\u2019s important to take advantage of the overall push for reform to reverse the effects of corruption on the national rail system, which has been accumulating debt over the past several decades (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pa28TrxLlHI\">watch, runtime: 8:44<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arafat further skirted the issue of timing on the hikes on Hona Al Asema, telling host Lamees Al Hadidi that the ministry has yet to decide when the ticket prices will be hiked, but it will be \u201csoon.\u201d <\/strong>The railway sector currently has a budget deficit of around EGP 2 bn, and there are currently studies underway to determine how much ticket prices must be hiked to bridge the financing gap (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tQhzhYTySF0\">watch, runtime: 10:00<\/a>).

Kabil also told Lamees that the industrial sector is steadily growing, and currently accounts for 18% of Egypt\u2019s GDP. To support that growth, the government has allocated large land plots for industrial companies, and is working with the Armed Forces\u2019 Engineering Authority to design and construct 13 industrial complexes in 12 governorates (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1Z22NWi0OJQ\">watch, runtime: 9:29<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lamees also sat down with Saudi businessman Hussein Shobokshi, who had a glowing forecast for Egypt\u2019s economic growth in 2018<\/strong>.
