Ibrahim al-Erjani, head of the Sinai Tribes Union, told Al-Masry Al-Youm that 24 tribes are contributing to the Sinai Sons Company with 18,000 tribal shareholders for the development of Sinai, in cooperation with the Armed Forces represented by the National Service Projects Organization (NSPO).
He added that the largest Marble factory in the Middle East will be opened within two months. Erjani said that this factory is one of the most modern technologically advanced factories in the world. It is currently staffed with engineers and workers, and there are Italian experts working to train the Egyptians workers on in European specifications.
According to Erjani, Sinai’s mountains have the finest marble types in the world according to many studies and researches, and the factory will provide about 1,000 jobs directly, besides indirect employment opportunities for the Sinai people, and production will focus on the local market in Egypt as well as competition in the Gulf market.
