The latest victims
The biggest story at the moment involves the Egyptians who were kidnapped
from their mobile phone company office in Baghdad. It became
clear, as more details emerged,
that they worked for Orascom-owned Iraqna.
A company spokesman in Baghdad
also spoke to the press about the crisis.
Getting realistic about reform
The Washington Post sums up the just-concluded NDP conference: "It should come as no
surprise that we did not deal with the issue" of term
limits, Gamal Mubarak told reporters Thursday, explaining that it
was not a priority. "We should not reduce talk of reform to
only narrow issues. We are not thinking of changing the
constitution."
The conference's economic
reform moves got slightly better press. The announcement that
state-run companies could be run by foreigners
emerged, as did reports that companies in Dubai were happy about
the potential tax
cuts.
Other coverage included VOA
providing a harsh prognosis of the political
aspects of the conference, and AFP
doing an all around piece on the education
sector's reform potential...
