The Egyptian government has been working recently on various reformations on the real estate laws to govern the violations along with the new urban agenda. The new building requirements are one of the laws that will be issued soon after a long time of discussions and amendments from several bodies of the Egyptian authority.

Facing a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic has crippled several industries to varying degrees including the construction industry, which is linked to more than 200 subsectors, from cement and ready-mixed concrete to bricks and machinery, and a large share of domestic employment.
