House Economic Head on Canal Lining Benefits

Deputy Tarek Shukri, Chairman of the Economic Committee in the House of Representatives, stated that the "Your Life is Sacred" initiative is the largest developmental project in the world, aimed at developing Egyptian villages and improving residents' quality of life. The initiative began with the development of water, electricity, and sewage networks, and expanded to include lining irrigation canals and public services such as health centers and schools, with a focus on providing integrated services in every village. The cost of the first phase before currency flotation was around 700 billion Egyptian pounds, which later increased to approximately one trillion pounds, all to enhance living standards. He pointed out that water coverage in urban areas reaches 98%, and sewage services in villages have increased from 11% to over 60%. Additionally, canal lining initiatives have reduced water loss by more than 50%.
