Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly has moved to postpone the official inauguration of the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), to the last quarter of the year, following the current conflict in the region.
During a press conference after his tour at the al-Beheira governorate on Saturday, Madbouly said that the tensions of the war have impacted gas flows, and “We are trying to secure the situation and continue with our plan as much as possible.”
The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities indicated that a new date for the museum’s official opening will be set during the last quarter of this year, to be announced in due time.
This will be done after coordination with relevant authorities to ensure the organization of an event truly befitting Egypt’s international tourism and cultural standing.
The decision stems from the Egyptian state’s national responsibility and its commitment towards presenting an exceptional global event that best reflects the legacy of Egypt’s civilization and its unique heritage, ensuring broad international participation.
The GEM will continue to welcome visitors during its trial opening until the new official opening date approaches.
Madbouly on Saturday also inspected the progress of some service and development projects across various sectors in Beheira Governorate.
He affirmed that the government is committed to its pledge not to reduce electricity loads this summer, despite the challenges facing the country.
