Beijing-based Industrial city operator China Fortune Land Development Co., Ltd. (CFLD) is determined to carry out a ten-year investment scheme in Egypt, a delegation from the company tells Egyptian President Sisi.
The Chinese giant is seeking to pump around $20 billion in investments into Egypt in the next ten years geared to develop the second phase of the Egyptian new administrative capital project, through entering into a public-private partnership (PPP).

CFLD plans to build a smart village, an advanced environment-friendly technology zone, a residential city, and a bundle of roads, facilities, services projects such as school, university, research centres, and clubs in the Egyptian new capital city.
The Chinese company is looking forward to have Egypt as its regional center in the Middle East and North Africa, the CFLD representative said in earlier statement in August.
