6th April , let us share

The  purpose of hte strike is what?  Haven't heard anything of it iin the media, which doesn't bode well for success.

No, I understand  that it was in Egypt.  I read half a dozen papers daily and don't recall seeing anything about an upcoming general strike in Egypt.  I guess my point was that if it hadn't garnered enough publicity to get a mention in the mainstream international press I don't give it much chance for success.  Too easy for a government crackdown, etc, etc, etc, without the eyes of the foreign press watching.

The strike is not officially publicized. Only one or two local papers tackled it. My people are spreading informal word about it everywhere (internet sites i.e facebook, workplaces...etc). I myself don't know what to expect in terms of number of participants and strike scale.

Staple commodity prices and wages have recently outrageously split apart in a huge gap. Also, the government is collecting tax and squeezing money w/without reason out of empty pockets and for no return

And new man, heard about the Porto Marina  Project!!!! ?? 

Thanks. Salaam 

Porto Marina's  big publicity timing is nerve wrecking!! our people, right now, are killing each other in the longest lines over bread! It made my blood boil.
