And the Metro there costs 1 Egyptian pond which is almost equivalent to about 10 bob. This 10 bob can take you from one end of the city to the other. And if you miss your stop, get lost bla bla bla you can alight and take the train again. Its amazing. In Alexandria, they have something called a Tram, which is almost like our train...uses electricity. (By the way what form of energy powers our trains?/) Now you only need a quarter of a pound, that's like 2 bob, to get from one end of the city to the other. Amazing.
past govts havent prioritised transportation...hope this one does it will really push the cost of living down...its not interesting that a distance of around 22-25kms someone uses close to 300 bob to and fro while using public transport...
