My feeling... change management delay It's only my feeling but refering to the news release of last month and based on my experience..
"...he indicated that the plan needed to be presented to President Morsi for approval as this was a top priority project in the field of land reclamation and debt reduction as part of the renaissance being called for from the President. The parties involved are also working on how to present the project to the farming community in a simple, easy to understand manner."
I think that Morsi gave is approval, but the change management and the communication is a very important success factor... and it delays the news release. You don't want to scare farmers with that new technology thing...
only my own personal feeling :)
