Hi Sveta and Sergio

When I read your post I decided to double check. There is no Egyptian regulation regarding money needing to be paid into Egypt in regards to projects being built in Egypt (at least according to my legal guy) and I am sure there are enough seasoned hands in the Egyptian property game on this website to confirm. Hopefully Zeiad will see this comment and reply.

Cheers

Rick
