Egypt To Me

 So, a few weeks ago, I went to visit my brother at Alexandria, Egypt. Well, I'm not gonna tell you about where we go, what we do. I just gonna tell you about what is Egypt to me, how I feel after visiting it.

 At first, I expect Egypt as a developing country better than Indonesia, the place maybe gonna be kinda dirty. And I also expect the Egyptians themselves are probably rough but kind and friendly to us.

 But, I was wrong. The dirtiness and highway jam are worse than Jakarta. Rubbish everywhere it looks like slums except at the at the city where the rich people live, of course. And they are very rough one. But if there are some of them who are kind, they are very, very kind. Oh, what was Hosni Mubarak doing all this time to you, Egypt?

  Not all the Egyptian Muslimah are well-covered. They're actually very 'fashionable'. Red blouse, blue tight jeans and red shawl. White inner, green sweater, green floral shawl, tight black jeans and nice furry boots. Wow.

 And it's a bit hard to differentiate the Muslims and the Christians here. There are Christians who also wear shawl like the Muslims. They also say Insha-Allah and Wa-Allahi when they talk because it's their language you know. And the shawls are also is their culture.

  While I was in Egypt, there are still 'muzaharat' a.k.a demonstration where they gather and talk and ban and sometimes doing chaos. Yeah, it still happen because the Pro-Mubarak and whoever are banning Mursi, the current Egypt president. And macam-macamlah kesnya. Well, it's not really teruk sangat. Just maybe, causing jam. Come on, you all. Mubarak is nothing anymore. Mursi is a nice guy and try to help you all. Come on-lah.

 The jam, oh yes. Especially in Cairo when the 'dustur' aka 'perlembagaan' baru cannot be carried and implemented as there are less vote for it to be implemented and used. So, they don't have, easy to say, rules yet. So, gosh the roads were so, so congested with cars and people crossing the roads calmly like there are no cars.One person almost stuck between two cars. But she just stay cool..

 But after venturing Egypt for two weeks, I see Egypt has a lot of potential to rise again. Under the new reign of Mursi, Egypt can rise as a developed country. I know that, I believed that.

And here are are some of our pictures in Egypt!
