 Klaus Schwab, the World Economic Forum director, is the esteemed guest of Egypt. His wrinkled albeit amiable face brought much confidence and assurance to participants at the WEF in Sharm El-Sheikh.

He is brimming with confidence in the region's future. parent page (25 - 31 May 2006, issue #796) |
