Egypt Congress Status - where are real people from Egypt
ugura
I am rather new to this game, but I am not new to Egypt.
Things had started good, rather careful but than we started seeing a lot of citizens accepted with no connections to Egypt or North Africa or to Arab World.
Now the official candidates for congress has been announced therefore, it got me worried how would we have a congress full of people with no real life Egypt experience or by people whom never had shared a meal with an Egyptian friend or wondered in the streets in Cairo, been in other locations in Egypt.
I refuse to have a congress with full of people whom never in their life had ever been to Africa or an Arab Country or ever had a single word of discussion in real life with anyone from Egypt.
I will continue to do all I can to help real Egypt and real Egyptians in this game.

well most of us will leave egypt as soon as the term ends,we are only trying to help,if you want you can take my place on the congress list...
Ketiaxxx...
Frenky98 has kindly offered his place and I have taken it. I thank him for his understanding.
I hope to help and serve for this country.
I support your efforts @ugura u deserve to be elected as true Egyptian. We are there as response to call for help, and we WILL leave when you are secure. I hope in next month you will have so called "baby boom" and many true Arab players will start playing this game and become Egyptian citizens. At this moment, there is not enough true Egyptians to secure Egypt! I am sorry you didn't contact me on pm, or your leaders - because id you did - nor your article , nor my comment would be necessary! All best and wish you success!
@antjerci thank you for your kind comments. I guess I was not sure whom to contact as heboo was too busy even though I sent a message still but unable to get replies due to her over work load. also I messaged Porosus and saw my name in the list and I was waiting to be contacted to be given the details. I had contacted game admins as well and given my work, office address as well as my mobile and home phone numbers in Cairo to them too.
but sadly I guess somethings went wrong. anyway of course one of my other points is that we were told when new countries were announced that there is enough traffic therefore people from these three new countries, so my question is where are they. why are they not here to take part in building the country unless we were miss informed my game admins.
thanks to Frenky98 I am now going to take part and until someone whom is more Egyptian than I do, comes over to take the responsibility I will do all I can for the good of Egypt with my limited capabilities.
Thank you for the support.
Good luck - I see a need for foreigners in the country, but there should be a balance. Remember that in the eWorld we get to choose our nationality, so when we declare our citizenship as Egyptian we are Egyptian.
BTW - I've been to Egypt twice last year (it's a single flight from Yemen). Great country... FK
@FranzK I agree balance is important, my bringing was to state that we were informed by admins many people and traffic coming from Egypt and other two countries but in reality we have not seen so in this a few days or people are hiding somewhere and not coming back to their own country in real. So since we were only a few from local why not include us in to help. but I`m glad to say it seem to be sorted now.
I have not been to Yemen, but hope to see it someday.
I am not a RL Egyptian but I have wondered trough the streets of Cairo and loved it!
I have been an eBelgium citizen since my ebirth but wanted a change and hope eEgypt will give me this. I do plan to stay and become a full part of the eEgypt community.
I don't think I need to be a RL Egyptian. Belgium has had multiple times none RL Belgians as president and a big part of our current congress and government aren't RL Belgians.
I don't think that is so important. An eRepublik country isn't the same as its RL counterpart.
Anyway I hope I will be accepted...
...
Some of these people that have never been to Africa have much more in-game experience than you and can help develop this country smoothly.
No hard feelings, but it's just the truth.
@A Vegan: Sorry if my comments were misunderstood. But of course this is not real life and it does not have to be real citizen to be an eCitizen. I only wanted to say. if we do have actualy people from the real country than why not give them a chance to let them take part at this very begining of course with support of our big groups in the game. otherwise I am not real Egyptian but I am proud to say I have done good for Egypt and Egypt done good for me in real life.
Oh, @ugura - here are simple facts : if some party has majority in congress and as elected majority needs to be sure that law or other proposal will be accepted, it needs 21 votes in congress. Also very important is that impeach of president can be prevented with majority of 27 votes or 66 %. Therefor - we , who came here in aid and request, need majority in those meters. However, if u count Croatian candidates, we don't hold all majority even we could do that. We wanted share seats with some of you who will be teachers to your ppl later in future. This is not list made by us only, though we participate in its creation. I hope , now, when mistake about your congress candidate place have been solved, you will support us and work along with us in building Egypt.
All the best!
@Alexander Levi - for sure most has more experience than I or many others. But I have not said leave it all to us. I only asked that some locals, people with some local real country experience to be included in the team me or some others does not matter.
Otherwise lets just leave it all to good guys to play but is no fun 🙂
@antjerci - I understand, it is rather important that we dont lose the control at this very begining. Maybe we had some misunderstanding due to overload of work on some members but things seem ok for now. Thank you for the help and support

😒
I'm sorry for the malevolent approach I took earlier. I wanted to apologize. I see your point. I fully support real Egyptians running their own country if they can do so.
Cheers mate 🙂
I am half Egyptian by blood.
Hello,I am Greek,but in game I feel Egyptian.Now Egypt hasn t a lot of real Egyptians,but I try to bring real Egyptians in game.(in my town in greece i know 10-15 Egyptians)
Although I am not a RL Egyptian, but I really want to fight for Egypt. But now they approve no citizenship
