New Cairo is currently a suburb of Cairo. The new capital is called the “new administrative capital” and it’s not labeled on google maps
The Government did a competition for the best "Name" suited to the new capital and nothing is talked about at the moment but in my opinion it should be called Memphis
@@skiver2609 it should be called kemet
@@skiver2609 Memphis is already a city in the United States, notably it's been in the headlines recently.
@@fsdfsdfsd4561 AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA
@@fsdfsdfsd4561 Memphis is the name of an ancient Egyptian city. The US steals a lot of names from other countries. Notably, Atlanta, Georgia (stole the name from the country of Georgia), east palestine (stole the name from the country of Palestine, etc.
I’ve been living in El Mukkatam for 6 months , considering moving to the new capital , to upsize and have room to cohabit with family. There has been a ton of improvement since this video… I love Egypt ❤
New Cairo is different from the new administrative capital , New Cairo is where the rich are staying for now
Not all are rich in new cairo
@@abdelazizrushdi666 i meant upper class
Pakistan did that 50yrs ago moving Capital from Karachi now ( 25 million) to planned new city Islamabad ,at foothills of himalayas but most people who moved were govt employees , Foreign dignitories city didn't turned out to be an inclusive city , Karachi continues to be overpopulated economic heartland , attracting mases from as far as Afghanistan .
But that is not the new city's (Islamabad) fault. The main issues were continued overpopulation and not having an economy that is based on sustainable growth from manufacturing for example
@@ahmedhany7035 The problem in Pakistan is CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION and CORRUPTION. Backpacked through Pakistan 3 months ago. Two ruling dynasty political families and top army generals are stealing your country blind. Leaving ordinary folk in poverty while the powerful and connected live lavish and rich lifestyles at the same time building nest eggs in Europe and places like London. Where do you think your foreign reserves are going to.........? That is why food prices are skyrocketing and no fuel to power electricity. Their was a solution and he was turning things around slowly but he is now out of office and the crooks are back in town.
@@kevintheminion1497 Countries can invest in manufacturing and new machinery while building new cities, especially in the case of Egypt, which the New Capital gets its money and resources from selling land to investors in a logistically important area between Cairo and the Suez canal
Just curious, does everyone think that building Islamabad has been a bad governt investment?
@@solarfeeds2019 Islamabad is a beautiful green city but its pricey , most people here are middle and upper class not an inclusive city for all .
Japan is paying its citizens who emigrate from Tokyo. Also, they are developing the smaller towns and cities to provide employment and other opportunities so as to prevent influx into the capital city. I think all countries can learn from Japan to prevent overpopulation in their respective capital cities.
Compared to Cairo, Tokyo has no really problem on overpopulation in fact their problem is declining population, so building a new city besides such is not feasible.
@@XiWein I do agree. Improving infrastructure in the existing cities could help than building an entire city from scratch.
Learning from the infidels what's next secular government this is how you get the gays
And it's failing, Japan's population is declining rapidly and their towns are dying as well.
How ? By dying off ?
I love how you explain negative and positive aspects of the new capital, keep making these amazing videos and hope you visit Egypt soon again ❤️
I thought they built it already
Masr l gadida
@@beyondthestars4299
Masr l gadida is just a residential area built 100 years ago and its more modern than the old cairo, the new capital administration started construction in 2015
I really want to visit Egypt. Always have. As a child I was obsessed with your ancient history. The economy is terrible even here so I won't be there any time soon
@@beyondthestars4299no masr el Gadida is a very old city
I hope that Egypt wont make the same errors that Brazil did whem it moved its capital from Rio to Brasilia in the 60's. Until today Rio never recovered the losses of money and jobs. I hope Egypt has a plan to develop de old capital too.
Great video. So nice to hear an english narration. Most of what I can find is in Arabic, no subtitles. As you say, it seems a little weird, impressive but inspiring. The scale is truly colossal, and I've become addicted to the new city.Thanks!
For people getting impressed from the new capital and of course since its well made and built like no doubt . No one will give a real insight of what happenings in egypt . Like the cheapest apartment in the capital would be 2 3 Million Egyptian pound if not more and for the biggest percentage of Egyptian making from 2-5K per month . Moving to such city is not gonna be possible anytime through our their lifetime . So since we talked that moving their is impossible for 70% of egyptians lets talk about the amount of money wasted in this city that because of it the egyptian economy and currency is going down to lifetime low record and all of this just to build an appeling looking city with high skyscrapers and longest building in Africa. Wow . But its not important to fight inflation that went up by 100% on nearly all products if not even more . And of course its jot important for your currency to lose 50% of its value in 8 month its completely fine . We will have a shitty economy and quality of life . But we will have the highest tower in africe and a park bigger than central park and amazing looking architecture for the rick . Lifelong egypt😂

The new capital will just be a suburb like new cairo for rich people in Egypt. The Egyptian government has been building suburbs for 70 years now to separate themselves from the poor and this is no different. Eventually the suburbs already built get more congested by lower classes of people who save to live there, and the government and rich people reaction becomes the same: build a new suburb. The only promise from this project as that it becomes a business capital and lures foreign investment, but knowing how incompetent our government is, I am not optimistic.
Suburbs for 70 years. And. The government. Didn't move from Cairo u dummy
How many people are rich and poor in Egypt??Because it states that 6 million people will move to the new city
new cairo city isnt the new capital, the part which you are talking about is the administrative capital
Isn't the Philippines doing something similar by moving the capital to New Clark City? I'd like to hear where things are if you can also do coverage on that.
yes same goes to Putrajaya Malaysia. we did it 20 yrs ago
We Indonesian are also doing same thing. By 2024 Indonesian government will start to move capital to East Kalimantan.
No. I think it's a new city rather than a new capital.
Looks like Cairo is going to follow a model similar to the Delhi NCR which though a good initiative is going to cost them a fortune.
Would love to visit Cairo someday
Can you please elaborate more? As far as I know, Delhi's Central Vista project still takes place in central New Delhi, and not far away. Places like Gurgaon and Noida don't have government buildings like New Cairo.
@@RK-bx1by What he meant was that people live in that region because it's much cheaper there and then travel to Delhi for work via Metro and other means, the government is still based in Delhi, all they are doing is building new buildings to replace the old crumbling infrastructure. But plenty of corporations have also decided to shift their offices to these satellite cities because it's just better that way.
they follow Putrajaya
@@amirism91 No they are following the opposite method from India. We make extended city to decongest metro city. Distributed govt office & private business equally.
@@surojeetchatterjee It's a mix of Gurgaon (new office buildings, residences, etc.) and Putrajaya (mostly government buildings in large plot of land a little far away from the larger city of Kuala Lumpur).
As far as I know, Gurgaon never got any major government buildings. All of those are still in New Delhi.
Putrajaya is more similar to New Cairo than Gurgaon. Have a look on Google Maps, it's got massive government buildings, similar to what has been proposed for New Cairo. But Putrajaya is not meant to be a business hub like central Kuala Lumpur, so I think it's best to say that New Cairo is a mix of both Gurgaon and Putrajaya.
P.S. Parramatta, near Sydney, is also a close example of what New Cairo wants to achieve. Parramatta is now getting government offices which used to be in Sydney CBD and it's also getting skycrapers and becoming a business hub. Many people also live there.
Loved your optimistic outlook near the end, plenty of other sources I have read on the same topic have mostly been doom and gloom.
as an egyptian i gotta tell u while there is some constructive criticism there, there is also a TONNE of misinformation and lies to kind of sink this projects before it’s even afloat. Egypt has always been the sleeping giant, we have a lot of resources and the pillars to be an extremely modern, wealthy and innovative country but weve been hindered by poor leadership in the past like 60-70 years! This is the first step of the giant on its way to awaken from it’s slumber so I understand why that would make many boots tremble and want to take it down, but trust me the New Capital is very very exciting and promising and probably where a lot of the future will be and not only for egypt but the entire region too. It’s a new dubai potentially and this type of innovation and ambition was never there before that egyptians forgot how to feel it! So to see it in the current government is truly refreshing. Keep an eye on this city for the short term future… it will surely impress you!
Another great story, thanks Uptin!
Thanks for watching!
@@uptin we don't have money to build houses for poor people. and then we have money from IMF debt to build homes for 7 million rich people. and the military palace of the pectagon

Just to correct you there, the streets blocked by stones you referred to as the US Embassy is quite wrong, the stones form a fence around several key governmental buildings i.e. the parliament, MOI old headquarter, the old cabinet building, state security head-quarter and some embassies including the US embassy
im so happy to be the first viewer.dude. I'm a fan of your work.its also great that you went freelance.
I appreciate your support!
Egypt definitely needs a new capital, the problem is we spent a fortune for it. Combining that with COVID and Russo Ukrainian war. It's a recipe for economical instability. External debt has reached about 50% of our GDP. IMO there are a lot of issues we could have solved with maybe 20% of what we spent on the new capital. Education, healthcare, infrastructure and tourism could have flourished with that amount of money and it's not just spending without return, tourism is an investment for the future because we've been relying on it for foreign reserves for long time.
Now we're stuck with very high inflation and decaying hope for the new capital success.
If it didn't work we're just doomed. God help us
Can I tell you something dummy?
egypt's external debt ($154.98B) is only 1/3rd of its gdp ($469.09B).
@@zombieat lolx. I had to look it up. He just lied with confidence
we were in Cairo 10 years ago and enjoyed it. BUT, the air pollution was unbelievable, my eyes were watering everyday. The people burn trash and garbage, old cars smoking, saw 2 dead cows floating in an irrigation canal next to the fresh crops they grow, raw meat hanging outside butcher shops, all covered with flies.
And that is why we are heading towards green energy
And how is building a new city gonna solve all of these problems?? Cairo will stay overpopulated and full of traffic even after the new city is completely done because the new city mostly caters to middle and higher classes, leaving the poor (which make up most of the population) stuck in Cairo and other surrounding areas....creating even MORE segregation
@@LO-dm6uf the city can fit forty million people do you want to tell me that half of the population is rich? No the city can fit for poor and rich
@@mohndmohnd6545 just 6.5 million not 40
You enjoyed it by seeing pyramids camels desert and being in a place of history! However with that description + knowing the hagglers that follow you through other videos I highly doubt it would be enjoyable vs East Asian countries!
So excited to see the new capital .
Great work 👏
Have you heard Vox's take on why they build the capital mostly motivated by the recent political situation in Egypt.
It's beneficial to actually be there and give us your perspective from the ground. Good work.
Let me correct you on some points
It's not smart to build a whole new city in the desert from scratch
It's not smart to build a monorail
And it won't solve any problem
This city is designed to be a fortress for the government
It's really far from Cairo to prevent people from coming and protesting
So let's explain why it's not smart to build a whole new city in the desert
1: it's a literal desert it's hot
Water is low
And it costs a ton of money
And the city is going to cost like 60 billion dollars
2:instead of spending 60 million dollars to build a new city you can spend them on improving the main city and clean the air
Why a monorail is a bad idea
1: it takes less capacity than train or metro
2: it's expensive to build and to operate
Why it won't solve any problem ?
From what you saw it's a shiny new capital with luxury housing and luxury transport options
Considering more than 50% of Egyptians are poor it won't be inhabited
We can prove this by the number of new cities built to ease the population of Cairo cities like new Cairo madinaty 6th October etc
In this video you talked about how beautiful the city is but you didn't talk about how it's a fortress made to keep the people away from the government to prevent a second revolution
And if the people came and protested there
The largest military HQ is not far away and it's like a city within a city
And it has its own powerplant to cut power from the people at any time while the Capital stays shiny
And it has it's own airport so if the people are successful the dictators can leave at any time
👏👏👏👏👏
Monorail not designed for mass transit 😂. Since the distance from Cairo not that far (only 1 hour), I think the new capital will be OK, although one of the impact will be moving the rich to it which usually will skyrocket the property price in the new capital.
What about LRT. Is. It designed for mass transit?
the monorail is almost 100km long connecting several neighborhoods in Cairo, Giza and of course, the new capital. So, yes it is designed for mass transit purpose
there is already an lrt opened and the netro line 4 phase 3 will rich there in like 10 years or so
@@ahmedhany7035 Monorail ist trash and way too expensive. We have seen that in Moscow and various other cities. Its too expensive to operate.
@@fleekrushyt9410 Monorails are much cheaper than subways per kilometer. Besides, they work very well in big urban metropolitans in Japan, Brazil, South Korea, China, etc.. the one in Russia is just 4.5 km long, so yea it is trash
As Burmese we can understand why they are building their new capital because we built our city Nay Pyi Taw in a flash changed from Yangon to Nay Pyi Taw because of the same reason
The new city is east of New Cairo not New Cairo, new Cairo is already housed for the most part
I Love Egypt ❤️🇪🇬❤️
The key lesson was the Arab Spring. Any antigovernmental hostility, the roads are closed and the trains stopped.
The new administrative capital will ONLY succeed if they provide enough affordable social housing to relieve population density in Cairo AND provide cheap and efficient transportation system inside the new capital as well as to and from Cairo....and from what we've seen so far that's not the case at all. The new capital now has Egypt's most expensive universities, plenty of high end gated communities right in the middle of the city, and an expensive transportation system (monorail) that middle and high classes can only afford.
What is gonna happen is most poor people wouldn't afford to live in the new capital and will stay in Cairo, while richer people will move to the new capital, increasing segregation between different classes....so yeah this new capital - for the most part- is a city for the rich
Wow, good luck to Egypt! Great production, my friend. You are covering important topics. I'm glad to discover your channel.
the metro line 4 is expected to reach there as well not just the onorail or the LRT. but it will be the third phase they are currently constructiog the first phase in giza , once done there would be a metro station right by the pyramids
Thanks to your videos uptin , its very knowledgeable !!
Im sorry, but this video unfortunately is a bit confusing. You keep mixing New Cairo (Mubaraks unfinished Desert City Project) and The New administrative Capital (AlSisis desert city project).
Who said new Cairo is unfinished 🤔
It's the same
the new capital is gonna be only for rich people cause 1 squared meter is about 30000 egp and that means that the average apartment would cost 3 million egp and in Cairo the average apartment cost about 300000 egp so people can't even afford 1 apartment
refreshingly balanced analysis, no political agenda, good job
Loved the video but you kept on showing maps and graphics of New Cairo which is NOT the New Capital, it was another project in the 90s that is almost complete by now and has tons of people already, the new capital is further away from cairo and development there only started in 2016 or smth so nobody lives there yet
This fact
I am from Egypt
New capital is building now . She finished this year
But new Cairo was built in the past I am living here so beautiful
Fascinating
About the flag thing no flag can be raised in egypt except inline with the international law and no flag can be raised higher than the egyptian flag .
if you play the game civilization , you know its bad to be starting a settlement in the middle of the desert. thank god this isn't a game....
It. Is not a game and it is not bad th-cam.com/video/VJxj14wrYBA/w-d-xo.html
already all the agriculture land by the nile is built on to the max. egypt is mostly sand and them the agriculture part that we need to protect for food, there is no option except expanding in the dessert. that doesn't mean they shouldn't add more low income housing tho
94% of Egypt is a desert ... so what do you suggest... we should built it in the sea? 🤔
excuse me? The gulf was all built on desert Dubai,Doha,Riyadh etc..
Seems very Car-Centric. Imagine talking about efficient cities and putting Dubai🤧🤣
Maybe Egypt can become a Bitcoin economy like El Salvador.
Best Chanelle with amaizing contents I learn every day i have learn a lot from this guy tours when first I met him in cnbc.keep up bro always support u
Wow, thank you!
Wouldn't the Egyptian economy have a hard time building such a city?
No it doesn't
Yes, we are literally in the middle of one of the biggest economic crises we have ever witnessed in like a decade...
@@LO-dm6uf the economic crisis is due to the Russian war with the global economical collapse the world is facing we we were building new cities since 2016 and the economy were positively growing with a significant rate
The Russian war only made things worse, that doesn't mean it caused it. You're being insincere because WHEN was the economy growing "at a significant rate" in 2016?? Did you live under a rock?? The value of the Egyptian pound has been going down and down since the 2010s, and it has been getting EVEN worse since 2020, way before the Russian war. The reason why our economy is so bad right now especially is because we are in GREAT debt from literally everyone including the IMF and other Arab countries, which is why inflation is so bad right now, and all of this for what??? For a useless city that will mostly benefit the middle and upper classes?? The thing about this new capital is that it is NOT modest at all, we're building extravagant structures that hold nothing but prestigious value at the expense of unnecessarily HIGH cost. Meanwhile most Egyptians are struggling to afford day to day necessities. You'll be a liar if you said all of this is because of the Russian war, because look at all other countries, they're not suffering nearly as much as we are.
@@LO-dm6uf
Sounds good. Go home to Mecca.

A monorail is considered a GADGET BAHN and is NOT the way to an efficient public transport system. Seeing the layout of the new city it clearly seems they used the wrong examples in the world. It seems very car centric, and I see a lack of walkable environments and cycling infrastructure.
The (electric) bike is the FUTURE for transport, it can deliver sustainable, cheap, healthy, quick non polluting transport options. I understand this is in a very warm climate, so maybe more should be put into public transport. The fact they build a monorail says a lot about there failure to really design a modern proper working city.
Two other points (im Egyptian and have lived 15 years there). First of all nobody that told you they are happy and looking forward to this capital are telling the truth, Egyptians are scared of the repercussions that come from just 1 word against the government, anything can get you in jail, we have never had a higher number of prisoners and all of them because of what they said, second of all this money could have been used to expand cairo itself make metro stations, better buses, redo some roads, this is 40 billion we are talking about, this new capital is just pure stupidity, the tallest building, the biggest park the octogone, 8 times de pentagon, a gigantic park two times bigger than in New York? In a fucking desert? Its all a waste of money that could have gone to really helping the poor, but that was never the goals of a dictator in any country
👏👏👏👏👏
but he is already expanding the metro and upgrading the roads and bridges in matter of fact the people make jokes on him for making alot of roads and bridges
it takes alot more resources and time to fix issues like these in a place like cairo it got congested by doing some upgrades here and there. its easier and more beneficial to build a new capital from scratch,literally a cheap desert turned into money bringer
Love from Egypt ❤️
What will the name of the capital? What are the name candidates?
Kemet is the new name

Egypt is our love story
This is fun. I want to visit once they are done with construction
Egypt could take those loans from the IMF/China and invested in improving Cairo with new Metro Lines, Parks, etc.
Instead they choose to build a brand new Capital in the middle of the desert, distant from the public and even worse, distant from any source of drinkable water.
Befor. You talk dummy learn. The city is not. Built by loans. Neither from the IMF nor from china
Those arabs are stupid.. most of arabs lol
@@son-of-the-moorish-empire we Egyptians are smarter than your race dummy
we're already doing that , we are improving old cities like Cairo and Alex while building new cities from scratch simontainously but cairo is already very crowded so it's better to move to new cities
distance from water isn't an issue, we don't live in the stone age anymore, in the modern age there is infrastructure built around water. there are other valid points but you chose this? lol man
3:30 war on car . We use public transportation
I lived in Cairo, and it is just a one big traffic jam. You can't even walk on the sidewalks do to the trash piles.
The monorail is a terrible idea. It’s designed to carry a minimal amount of people, meaning only the rich and those that can afford to visit the new capital. The poor will be kept out. It’s basically a big theme park where you go get your state services then go back home. If they wanted to integrate the capital to the rest of the country, would have extended the metro to the capital.
The. Rich. In Egypt. Ride Lamborghini and Ferrari. Not public transport you dummy
And. We have. Extended the. LRT from. The new capital to Cairo dummy
what're you talking about ? the monorail is designed to transport 45k passengers per hour!!
@@mahmoudabdelsatar3917 meanwhile tickets are expensive and low to medium income residents don't have anything to do in the futuristic new capital so what the monorail is serving here other than the high income residents who don't need to ride Public transportation because obviously they have their own cars which became expensive and not affordable to a working class citizen!
@@mahmoudabdelsatar3917 the smallest apartment there is estimated to be priced 1585000 EGP like really who still have that amount of money unless they are rich businessmen?

Not only monorail transportation, but, a light rail and a high speed rail are also being built.
It was very interesting and informative. ❤️

9:30 because Egypt is surrounded by desert, so no such thing as deforestation concern
I enjoyed your video, being balanced. I am from Egypt, but bored of the negative impressions I get from other TH-camrs.
I think they are doing little over extra they should made the current City better than building a 5 city's
Because their dictator said so
P.s.
The plans for the city doesnt seem to include that much low incone housing (which is badly needed by the average Egyptian population). The whole city seems like a city for the rich. The city is just a way for the Egyptian dictator to show off his wealth just like the other dictators in the middle east. If they really wanted to benefit the Egyptian people, they should improve the already existing cities instead by building more affordable housing, adding and improving public transportation,etc.
Improving the old city is not necessary, they need to pull a large number of citizens out of Cairo. The place is a over crowded swamp of garbage.
Hoping it's gonna work well 🙏
Most Egyptians will tell you that the new administrative capital is exciting because they are afraid of the criminal political regiem .. The people here in Egypt are afraid to even think about criticizing the military dictator Sisi because he priosened more than 200,000 of the Egyptians just for their political and ideological opinions. As Egyptian I am very sad to tell you that our country is one of the worst places to live in unfortunately 😏🙂
And I'm glad to hear this... you guys don't belong there..
Thanks 👍
The tallest tower in Africa is being built in the new capital of Egypt
Although Egypt does not have resources like the rest of the Middle East But it has progressed a lot

Thanks for clarification
The capital in US was Philadelphia not new york
A very good idea. Hope successful. Thanks for the information n analysis
If country don’t development into infrastructure it stagnant to create a new capital new city and green technology ad move the population into the new area .
Just a note that a lot of the things that are being said in the video are not accurate. Ex. the US embassy.
Also, the pollution is also due to not enough city employees cleaning up trash on the streets and the citizens not doing their part in keeping their city clean.
They should build a city for manufacturing, workshops converting raw materials to actual products to increase the economic activity. He the president should ask the workshop owners who make things in tiny streets to come here and set up shop. This new city needs manufacturing sector so Old Cairo can loosen up.
Nice to see a positive take on this
The sentence that Indonesia cut the jungle is just wrong. I come from east Borneo, 100km from new capital. There is already no more jungle near the cities there. The real jungle has been gone since 20-30 years ago.
I proud to be Egyptian ❤❤❤and im one of engineer's built it
THREE LOANS 20 BILLION USA DOLLARS. SHOULD HAVE PUT MONEY IN CHIP MANUFACTURE.
I believe Indonesia is also building a new capital city.
Uhh wtf? You saw one monorail and ignored all the giant highways?! If look on google maps as well the only thing you see are car depended suburbs and huge roads through this new “city”

I love this mega project
Now I am definitely no Urban Planner, but looking at the size of Cairo, and the size of that new city, plus how close the two are together makes me think that it won't help with the congestion because they're just gonna grow together

Yup, that’s why the country has become a republic of fear. It’s an extreme police state.

Bro, building such a city in a crisis like we have is a road of madness you can see the economy is really degrading and the government can even handle it and instead that Tyrant is building a whole new fucking city while having great sum of the population under the line of poverty and having a corrupted government.
I see people who don't even have an idea about how they can make it and live they have no money to save for anything not even for food and that wasn't their condition before.
All I wanna say is building a new city is such a bad idea specially we have too many poor people and too much of corruption and recession and that new Capital won't help in making anything better.

The people who will live there will be government loyalists or allies in state-owned companies
No , any Egyptian can live there
Cairo could use plastic garbage consuming plasma energy, gas and glass production. Security glass. Cairo honking is own kind. Sisi need imf cash infusion. New city is a soft opening. UAE may be involved in a lot of real estate in Egypt these days.
Inspiration from Putrajaya, KL ..many countries have copy cat Malaysia and moved their administration capital outside their capital.
Hahaha...where did you get that info?!...i'm Malaysian myself but really?! 😅
Qtar is an example, Dubai, UAE and Japan.
