Egyptian prime minister Essam Sharaf has urged foreign companies and banks not to delay investing in the "new Egypt". "We have had major changes with the revolution and there will be ups and downs, but what I can say is that whoever wants to invest in Egypt now is investing in the future," he says. "I know these are difficult times, but I travel a lot and what I am hearing is that people are still thinking very highly of Egypt. Investors in Arab, African and European countries, and even the US, understand very well the value of Egypt. We must get through this bottleneck of the transition, but the future is very bright."
