Investment Minister Sahar Nasr met Wednesday with Asad Alem, World Bank Country Director for Egypt, to discuss preparations for WB visits to the country in August and September.
The first visit is expected to take place between August 20 and 24 and will focus on the inking of the third batch of a three-billion-dollar fund to support the Egyptian economic and social program, according to a statement by the Investment Ministry.
Other WB delegations will visit Egypt in September to discuss projects to develop Upper Egypt, support good governance, upgrade education and improve the investment climate. 
The WB has allocated 500 million dollars for the development of Upper Egypt, Nasr said.
