Abouel Fotouh: Egypt will not be governed by pharaoh
Presidential Candidate Abdel Moneim Abouel Fotouh
This is a crucial day for Egypt
We will continue to work for this great nation
We will never abandon Egypt even if it means sacrificing our lives..
..in order for this country to become free and democratic..
..and for the Egyptian people to live with freedom and dignity
Retribution for Egypt's martyrs is our responsibility..
..and we will not abandon it
We will not betray them
We will not betray Egypt's women who have sacrificed..
..their bodies and souls for this country
We will continue to defend this national project..
..that does not discriminate between Egyptians..
..irrespective of their beliefs, religion, gender,
..color or political affiliations
Egypt's president will serve this country..
..as a public employee working for the Egyptian people
Egypt will not be ruled by a pharaoh
With God's graces and help..
..and with the support of the great people of Egypt..
..we will write an Egyptian, civilian, democratic constitution..
..that reflects and ensures the rights of all Egyptians..
..and values rights and justice
We will form a parliamentary presidential system..
..that provides Egypt with a respectable representation everywhere
Breadůfreedomůsocial justice
Sayed Shebl
He is the most suitable person for the coming four years..
..as these four years will require hard work
We want someone who knows what the country needs..
.. and what the people need
Someone who knows the people..
..and who cares about the whole Arab and Palestinian nation
He was a member of the relief committee and the Arab Medical Union
He set up a number of field hospitals during the revolution
So he is the best suited for the coming period
Iman Haikal
We came to lend our support to Abouel Fotouh
In my opinion he is the most suitable person for Egypt..
..as the various sectors of Egyptian society support him
Also, he loves his country and has been involved in politics..
..since he was a student and was the head of the Egyptian Student's Union
He was secretary general of the Arab Medical Union
He helped in many crises such as the Duweiqa crisis,
..the floods and the Palestinian issue
I feel he will be like Erdogan and better God willing
Egypt's situation now is better than that of Barzil and of Turkey
In 1998, Turkey had a much higher inflation rate..
..than we have here in Egypt..
..and now look where Turkey stands
It is now ranked 16th on the global economic indicators
I say this to give you confidence and hope that we will build this country
Our country will be respected by all of its enemies,
..both the internal enemies of the revolution..
..and its foreign enemies
Abouel Fotouh, Abouel Fotouhů Tomorrow you will be the president
