They make it sound like bread is all they eat. What about rice, oats, corn, meat, dairy, and other plant and animal products. This sounds like the potato famine in Ireland.
I can't believe that the inspector is using a copybook instead of computer in the 21st century......
Egypt is not the only Muslim country who suffers from lack of bread; Yemen, Jordan, Syria, Iran and more, because their governments are using the money to buy arms instead of bread!
when i left Egypt 1964 there were 28 million people, now 82 million, if many of you have 4 wives and bread so many how do you expect to feed your children? think with your brain and not with the other head
In another 56 years in 2066,the population of Egypt will be doubled to164
millions,so,how would they feed the exploding population? the only solution is birth control (like it was in China1 kid per family),
but Muslims will not follow it(they rather eat stones than use contraseptives...)
they have12 kids per family,and if men can have 4 wives it will be 82X4, their government should limit it to 1 wife only (but,their religion would not allow)if not people will kill one another
Every factor can explain such riots and their consequences... but nobody never quote some simple figures as : " natality rate in egypte : 3,2 child/ per women"...Huge rates of birth are never evoqued or quoted by medias...
Super natality is the Biggest issue of the XXI century. But we don't like the third world to be responsible of anything, do we ? they will never have to answer for anything for we love them as victims of our own villainy?
The financial shockwaves spread by the crisis of US imperialism—the fall of the dollar amid the US mortgage crisis, and the explosion of the world market price of a barrel of oil ($103). Not only are fuel prices affected, but the rise in petroleum prices is pushing up food prices, which are closely dependent on the prices of energy, transport, and fertilizers, the component parts of which are produced from natural gas, the prices of which are in turn heavily affected by oil prices.

u know something, um egyptian and i tell u that, not only the bread is the prob but every thing is so expensive, about 150% more than the oreginal price, the governement must do something...
am sure Egypt will be fine, this the land of great Pharaohs it never been in hunger for the last 7000 years, I wish these greedy people who make use of the cheap bread situation can remember those days of great Oct 6, 1973 victory where no any single crime reported and people were so untied for the sake of Egypt.
it depends of your definition of hunger. 20% live on less than $2 a day. "People are united for the sake of Egypt"? In fact people have been always divided: rich and poor, ruling class and working class.Who owns Egypt? There's rise in the west as well, but it's almost insignificant compared to the effetcs of such a rise in the "developing" countries. What's happening is the unfolding crisis of the world economy is to be exported to the "third world". let's ask ourselves who detemines prices.
I'm sorry it's not 'our' country. It's owned by the rich. How much do you or do I own in this country? Nearly nothing.Most of it is owned by the rich,by the big businesses and the big landlords...these are the owners and the rulers.
The good solution is the government to handle also the distribution of bread by building full automatic state bakeries everywhere that delivers fully packed and marked bread packs, on the other hand a national income increase is to take place immediately to compensate at least the difference between cheap bread and expensive one.
The bread problem in Egypt mainly caused by the non honest citizens who buy it so cheap store it to feed chickens and other home breed poultry, and street vendors who create a parallel black market. The government supports the lowest price ever for flour that is cheaper than it should be by about 2500 pounds, controlling the bread distribution is so difficult if not impossible.
