Egyptian Minister of Transport Hani Dahi on Tuesday highlighted the location of Egypt in the heart of the world where international navigation lines are passing through.
In his speech at an Arab maritime forum, now in session here, he added that Egypt has 27 specialized ports and 15 commercial harbors at the Red Sea and Mediterranean which are linked by the Suez Canal.
He added that up to 20,000 ship pass through the Suez Canal annually.
One of the first priorities of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi after assuming power is upgrading and developing the Suez water way and related ports and area due to the high economic revenue it will add to the Egyptian national economy, he added.
