Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Egypt unveils plan to build glitzy new capital
How exciting it is to build a new capital! Well, it hasn’t been that unusual at least for the largest country in three continents. Guess what? Canberra, Brasilia and Washington D.C.
So, it doesn't sound so crazy for Egypt to move its capital from way-too-congested Cairo to a nearby location. They could design a greener and cleaner city not only to meet the needs for its increasing population and infrastructure requirement but also to lead design and architecture design concept for modern urban environment.
However, the loftier the ideas are, the higher the ticket price will be. Will they be able to realize such a big project? Will it become a popular tourists’ destination like their proud pyramids or the Nile? Can such a historic move from the historical place be supported by their own people without another big uprising?
Enjoy reading and learning what the historical town and country is thinking of now.
