“We are studying a law to limit population growth in the country, as it is one of the biggest challenges facing the county,” President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi said during a phone call to TV anchor Amr Adeeb’s talk show “Every Day”. The phone call came during an episode of the TV show discussing poor and green areas in Egypt. He also emphasised that numerous non-governmental organistations cooperate with the state to rebuild and help the neediest villages across the country. “Our efforts to combat population growth are substandard, and the issue is not regulated by the law. However, the media must work with us, and we must act intensively on family planning,” the president concluded.
