Major General Dr. Khaled Mubarak, Governor of South Sinai, inspected Al-Naqab Village in Taba City. During the visit, he reviewed the progress of a project to construct 60 Bedouin homes over an area of 54,000 square meters. This initiative aligns with efforts to improve living standards in Bedouin areas and implement sustainable development plans as part of Egypt’s 2030 Vision.
The governor emphasized that the project reflects the state’s commitment to developing Bedouin areas and ensuring a dignified life for the residents. The project aims to enhance the living conditions of the village’s inhabitants by building well-equipped homes, each covering 180 square meters.

Engaging with Local Residents

Enhancing Healthcare Services
To improve healthcare services, the governor instructed the Directorate of Health to prepare a detailed report outlining the needs of the village’s health unit. This step aims to ensure its operation and deliver essential healthcare services to the community. The governor stressed the importance of synchronizing housing projects with the provision of critical services to guarantee an improved quality of life in the region.
A Comprehensive Vision for Development
