To
hold back the great flood of people which ruches into on Cairo, the
government undertook since 1978 the construction of 7 new cities in
edge of the desert, equipped with running water and sewers, of
schools and dispensaries. The demographic growth accelerates: 4
million inhabitants in 1967, 16 million today. In some popular
districts, the density reaches more than 150 000 inhabitants per
km2. The expressways multiply while the pyramids of Giza disappear
little by little behind a hedge of buildings.
