Naguib Sawiris' Comment Sparks Interaction: What Did He Write to Sisi's New Advisor?

A comment from Egyptian businessman Naguib Sawiris has generated interaction among Egyptians after he responded to a post written by former Minister of Planning and Economic Development Hala Al-Said, following her exit from the new ministerial formation and her appointment as an advisor to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. The minister wrote on her official account on the "X" platform (formerly Twitter): "Every journey in life carries with it a new phase that brightens with the sun. At the heart of my journey lies a love for the homeland that I know resides in the heart of every Egyptian. It is a love filled with pride and appreciation for our rich history, our great civilization, and the achievements of our inspiring people, driving us all to work towards building a better future for our country." Hala Al-Said also added: "With a heart full of gratitude, I am honored today to begin my journey as an advisor to His Excellency President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi for economic affairs, and I conclude my career in the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development." She concluded her message by stating: "Nothing compares to the love for and dedication to one's country with passion. I am grateful to everyone I have met over the past years." In response, businessman Naguib Sawiris commented on the former minister's post, saying on the "X" platform: "God bless you, a personality we are proud of." The post by Minister Hala Al-Said and Naguib Sawiris' comment on it sparked wide interaction among followers on "X," wishing her success in her new position. It is worth noting that the new Egyptian government took the oath of office at the presidential headquarters on Wednesday, just hours after the names in the new ministerial formation were announced.
