"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is extremely important that we learn from other countries. I do not know why power is very expensive in this country. I think it is important for the Ministry to look into the issue and see whether our people are being exploited or not. As the Minister for Agriculture said a few minutes ago, the cost of electricity in Egypt is a quarter of the cost here. We pay four times what they pay for electricity. I think it is important that we look into these issues and see how we can bring down the cost of energy in this country. Without affordable energy, we cannot progress as a nation. I also want to ask the Ministry to be sympathetic to the people in rural areas, especially as concerns paraffin. Most people use paraffin in rural areas and we must subsidize this. I beg to support."
