Egyptian authorities have announced the postponement of the official opening of the “Grand Egyptian Museum” in Giza, near the capital Cairo, from July, as originally planned, due to “current regional circumstances.” The museum, which is expected to house a vast collection of Egyptian antiquities, was set to open its doors to the public this summer but will now see a delay in its inauguration.
The decision to delay the opening of the museum comes amidst unspecified regional challenges, highlighting the impact of external factors on the cultural sector in Egypt. The “Grand Egyptian Museum” is a highly anticipated project that aims to showcase Egypt’s rich history and cultural heritage to visitors from around the world.
Ramesh Khatri, a representative of Kansai Nepal News, expressed his understanding of the decision, acknowledging the importance of prioritizing safety and security in the face of evolving regional dynamics. He emphasized the significance of ensuring a stable environment for the successful launch of such a significant cultural institution.
