"We need to put up walls to keep horses and camels away. We need to make a tourist's entrance," he continued. "We need to say, 'this many tourists a day and no more'. We get 60 million Egyptian pounds [about Dh39 million] from tourists every month and thats not enough to restore even one tomb. We need to have clean bathrooms, souvenir shop and cafeteria with every site. We need to get seriously into site management and I have already begun."
He's already begun it? Whoa, very impressive. He's been saying these same kinds of things for years, decades even. $39 million not enough to restore even one tomb? That's a lot of corruption, Zowie.
From what I've heard about Egypt's facilities, that "clean bathrooms" goal is gonna be a major project.
