CAIRO, Feb. 3 (Xinhua) Sales in several economic sectors in Egypt, including textile, gold and real estates, have been negatively affected by the lingering COVID-19 pandemic. The production of winter clothes has dropped by 50 percent compared to the previous season, which impacted the sales of the ready-made clothes market, said Mohamed Abdel-Salam, chairman of the Egyptian Chamber for textile Industries.
The textile sector has been affected to a great extent by the spread of the pandemic, Abdel-Salam told Xinhua, noting that people s reluctance to leave their houses and willingness to stick to the precautionary measures is a major cause of the accumulation of goods in stores and warehouses.

The Chairman of Libyan-Egyptian Chamber of Commerce Ibrahim al-Garary told Sky News Arabia that Egypt and Libya contemplate extending Egypt’s high-speed electric train – to be accomplished in two years – to Libya. The news was reported Monday (18 January) by Egypttoday.com
The railway stretches between Red Sea’s Ain Sokhna to the Mediterranean’s Alamein city. The line can be lengthened to Libya’s Benghazi through Egypt’s Saloum town, it reported.
Garari was reported as stating that the government of his country intends to invest in the project to boost its accomplishment rate. He added that the Libyan committee concerned with the matter will hold meetings with the Egyptian side next week. The meetings also consist of planning for the Libyan-Egyptian Economic Forum to be held in February.
