President Abdel Fattah El Sisi had a busy schedule last week that included a number of activities and meetings, most notably chairing a meeting with Prime Minister Sherif Ismail, the governor of the Central Bank of Egypt, the ministers of defense, interior, justice, finance and supply, as well as the heads of General Intelligence and Administrative Control Authority.

The meeting reviewed the strategic stock of basic food commodities in various governorates, as the supply minister stressed that his ministry has a sufficient amount of food stock at affordable prices that can meet the needs of the market in Egypt.

Meanwhile, Sisi underlined the importance of establishing a modern and comprehensive strategy to store grains.

The meeting also tackled a number of other issues, including the results of Sisi's participation in the 72nd session of the UN General Assembly in New York where he held bilateral talks with several heads of state and governments.

Later in the day, president Sisi assigned the Education Ministry to set a three-year plan to increase salaries of teachers.
