More re Farouk Hosni nomination for UNESCO

State Information Service

Visiting Italian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Ugo Intini has expressed satisfaction over Egypt's nomination of Culture Minister Farouk Hosni for the post UNESCO President. Intini says that his country supports Hosni as President of UNESCO. Meanwhile, Hosni has approved a $2-million deposit into UNESCO's account to prepare a blueprint for the old-Cairo development project. The sum would be used to hire an international firm to survey the area.

He has done a great job for Egypt and I am sure would serve the world well. But don't replace him as Minister of Culture with Hawass.
