00:00 80% of all transit traffic in Egypt passes through here.
00:05 The port is the world's 10th most efficient port for the transportation of freight and infrastructure, according to the International Bank.
00:11 The port of East Bursaid, which witnessed the addition of new landfills and stations to reflect the increase in exports to foreign markets,
00:18 reached 15 million tons.
00:20 And the reception of more than 1,590 ships annually, and the number of freighters exceeded 3.5 million freighters.
00:27 After the government helped develop it with the private sector and the largest port operator,
00:32 it became one of the largest port circulation stations in the Middle East and South,
00:38 with a total length of about 3,500 meters.
00:42 And one of the most frequent carriers of freight to the port in 2025.
00:49 Egypt's vision is that we become part of the global logistics movement.
00:56 Today, we are talking about 80% of the transit traffic in the Arabian Peninsula is in East Bursaid.
01:03 I think this is a result of the efforts of a very learned and relaxed human being.
01:07 The state has invested in it very much to achieve the sustainable development we dream of.
01:12 The green direction we are talking about is to realize that we are part of the global logistics center in the Arabian Peninsula.
01:19 I think this is a start.
01:21 There are also integrated services in line with the logistics that are carried out in the world from blue economy.
01:26 The port, which has exceeded the development costs of 500 million dollars and has 1,500 meters left,
01:31 is currently negotiated by the Egyptian government to operate it.
01:35 It also witnessed the first process of financing ships with green methane, with a volume of 500 tons.
01:42 It comes within a government plan to target the development of ports and the increase in energy consumption
01:47 and the improvement of the efficiency of the services provided.
01:50 Instead of 250 kilometers, we will have 500 kilometers, and then two routes.
01:54 In addition to the new Suez Canal, which is actually from the end of the Suez Canal, which is 72 kilometers,
01:59 it will be 82 kilometers.
02:01 This will increase the number of ships inside the salt mine from 6 to 8 ships.
02:05 We need this very much now in view of the increase in the number of ships crossing the Suez Canal.
02:10 We are talking about 26,000 ships crossing last year.
02:13 We are talking about an increase of about 17% from the previous year.
02:18 Therefore, we must increase the number of ships inside the salt mine
02:21 to reduce the waiting hours or there will be no waiting at all.
02:25 Egypt has 18 maritime ports and witnesses the development operations on all levels
02:30 at a cost that has exceeded 130 billion pounds during the period from 2014 to 2024.
02:39 The Egyptian government is taking broad steps towards developing ports and enhancing their efficiency
02:45 north, south, east and west,
02:48 in an effort to turn them into a global center for trade and logistics.
