HelloEgy; Egyptian Brain, English Tongue
Cairo: Helloegy. Alsahafa agency for Advertising, Media, and Public Affairs has released an experimental broadcasting for "HelloEgy”, the first web journal in English after the revolution.
HelloEgy is working to be the voice of Egypt all over the world and the voice of world in Egypt. It will be as a new bridge towards knowledge; it will be the means by which the English readers and speakers all over the world can recognize the Egyptian and Islamic issues.
The e-journal includes a large number of departments and branches that enable the reader to know the news of Egypt and the whole world, and make use of many services with interactive benefits provided by the new media. In spite of the greatness of the Arab media history, the western reader has suffered for many years from the scarcity of information about the East, and the absence of a strong mass media to act as a source of these news and information, which made him a prey for what presented by the Western society from time to time in journals, reports, or cinemas which may be not true or accurate at least.
Although there are some Arab and Egyptian journals published in English , they are still limited by being mere attempts and classic activity to serve the English speakers in the Arab countries, and still can’t go further the borders of the nation.
HelloEgy seeks to attract a wide range of native speakers of English all over the world, besides providing services for English-speaking residents in and out their country. It takes the advantage of the high technology that broke the barriers and goes through borders and canceled the procedures of shipping and Censorship.
Of course there is no place for competition specially there are thousands of publications in English in the western countries and available on the internet. But we are an exception, as we truly present the Egyptian situation for the first time. We are the ones who best know our country Egypt. HelloEgy is the Egyptian brain speaking English. And this is the secret of its excellence.
The Executive Director of Alsahafa agency for Advertising, Media, and Public Affairs, in Cairo, has stated that: ”all the studies have proved the need for a new Egyptian journal published in English to present the real Egypt. Egypt is not the country of demonstrations or terrorism as what is said now. Egypt is the history, civilization and monism from which the other nations had learned, it is the source of philanthropy from seven thousand years ago and still especially after the revolutions of 25th January and 30th June 2013. The Western people are not aware of the real major political changes in Egypt, which caused a little political confusion and attitudes towards the political situation here”.
She also added that the e-journal, besides its main role of publishing the news, reports and photos about Egypt, it will act as an archive for all what have been published about Egypt in the different foreign press. It will follow-up the daily news about Egypt and republish them to present one and complete archive for the reader about all what have been published about Egypt. She also explained that the preliminary indications of the experimental broadcasting prove the success of the idea. It has appeared through the interactions of many readers in Egypt and other countries, which is a good start for us. We work on other improvements of course especially after the actual release after 6 months.
