President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said his country has started establishing integrated development projects including ports, airports, industrial zones, and centers for logistics following the success of the new Suez Canal project. This came during Sisi's speech to the Egyptian- Kazakh business forum in Astana, inviting Kazakh entrepreneurs to participate in these projects to contribute to the deepening of economic relations between the two countries. "I would like to emphasize the importance of the role that can be played by the Kazakh and Egyptian companies to deepen investment relations between Egypt and Kazakhstan," Sisi added.
