The president said that the new ministers should ensure proper follow-up on ongoing projects to benefit from previous experiences and build on what has already been achieved. The president's instructions to the new ministers came during a meeting El-Sisi held with the new cabinet on Thursday afternoon shortly after it's members were sworn in.
