A number of projects, signed during the Egypt Economic Development Conference (EEDC), will start to be implemented immediately, said Planning Minister Ashraf el Araby.
Most of the projects will be enlisted as part of the upcoming fiscal year 2015-2016, he added in exclusive statements to MENA's economic bulletin on Monday.
The minister further said that there will be a follow up of implementing all the projects, signed during the economic conference, which wrapped up yesterday in Sharm el Sheikh.
