CAIRO – 19 May 2022: The Egyptian Population Watch recorded Thursday 103,346,795, showing an increase of 96,795 in less than a month compared to April 26. Egypt's Population Record hit in April 103,250,000 with an increase of 250,0000, in just two months, up from 103 million on February 22. Equally, the rate of population increase must be compatible with the economy's ability to achieve a high level of human development, and reduce unemployment. He added that the government should benefit from the political leadership's desire to reduce the annual population increase from over two million to 400,000 by formulating and implementing relevant effective strategies. Hassan had stated in October that the Egyptian population grew by half a million in the previous 100 days.
