During a press conference on the sidelines of his visit to the project, he emphasized that the New Administrative Capital Company always strives to overcome all obstacles facing serious real estate developers, emphasizing that everyone is united. One way to complete this massive national project, which is considered one of the most prominent landmarks of the new republic launched by President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi.

He pointed out that the entire project consists of independent villas with diverse services, reflecting the quality of the project's clients. He explained that the Capital Company has connected approximately 95% of the facilities in the first phase, but has certain binding requirements for the developer to connect the facilities. He emphasized that once these are completed, the services will be connected immediately.

Therefore, it is one of the companies that has been successful in this giant national project from the outset.

Ashraf Adel, General Manager of Better Home, expressed his pleasure at the honor of Eng. Khaled Abbas visiting and inspecting the company's second project in the capital, and his constant keenness to share with them the exceptional moments in the company's history.
He praised the significant role played by the Administrative Capital Company and its leadership in supporting developers and overcoming all obstacles to complete their projects in a manner befitting the scale and importance of this massive national project. Adel pointed out that Better Home was the first real estate developer to acquire a plot of land in the New Administrative Capital since the launch of this great dream, which has become a tangible reality for an integrated smart city brimming with life and reflecting Egypt's civilized image to the world.
He noted that the "Solo" project is a milestone in the Egyptian real estate market, as it is the only project in the Administrative Capital composed entirely of standalone villas, with a total of 390 separate villas, spread over an area of 66 acres. The project is distinguished by its strategic location directly on the southern Bin Zayed Axis, next to the Cathedral and the Green River, one of the most important geographical landmarks in the capital. Adel added that the company took into account the low population density in the project's design, allocating 80% of the total area to landscaping, green spaces, and a lagoon, while only 20% was allocated to buildings. This provides a healthy, integrated residential environment that combines comfort and nature. He explained that the project includes a variety of recreational and social services, including a health and social club (Club House) for residents, as well as swimming pools, restaurants, cafes, and pharmacies, enhancing the quality of life within the unique residential complex.
The company's general manager indicated that the project has achieved great success since its launch, as it was completely sold out in record time, reflecting customer confidence in Better Home projects and its leading position in the real estate market. The project also includes an integrated commercial area spanning an area of 30,000 square meters, consisting of 14 independent buildings, each consists of a ground floor, first floor, second floor, and roof, in addition to a private basement. Building areas start from 1,250 square meters, in addition to 1,100 square meters of outdoor space and a 940-square-meter basement.
Adel added that the commercial area was implemented with a modern "strip mall" design, open and directly on the road, facilitating access for both residents and road users. It includes restaurants, cafes, pharmacies, and international companies, making it a commercial and entertainment destination serving the entire region.
In concluding his speech, Ashraf Adel, the company's general manager, expressed his thanks and appreciation to Engineer Khaled Abbas for his prominent and tangible role in the renaissance and growth of private sector projects in the capital. This is a natural result of his continuous follow-up and constant efforts to overcome any obstacles facing companies in completing their work. He praised his ongoing support for the company and for every serious developer working in the capital. He emphasized the company's continued construction and development, and its keenness to seize opportunities to implement other projects in the capital, making it an influential and effective partner for the capital in the field of development and growth.

Driving through barriers: Joan Kaitesi's journey on male-dominated roads
In the heart of Uganda's capital, 35-year-old Joan Kaitesi navigates the city's infamous traffic jams with calm determination. As a driver for the World Health Organization (WHO) Uganda country office, Joan's professionalism shines through the daily chaos of blaring horns and impatient road users. From a young age, Joan was captivated by vehicles. Inspired by action films and a childhood dream of driving tanks in war zones, Joan's fascination with big vehicles set her apart. While society often labelled her interests as 'masculine,' Joan remained steadfast, determined to forge a path in a field traditionally dominated by men. 'Being one of the older children at home, I had to act as a role model to my siblings in a challenging environment. This pushed me to work hard and never despise any job, including roles commonly reserved for men, which led me to join the driving discipline,' shares Joan, the second-born in a family of six (three girls and three boys). Her professional journey began in 2015 at the Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI), where she stood out as the only female among 15 applicants. Despite initial intimidation, Joan's skills and determination earned her the role, making her the first female driver at IDI. She later joined Chemonics International for five years, and then UN Women, where she expanded her responsibilities to include assisting expatriates with documentation and protocol duties. In October 2024, Joan joined WHO Uganda during a polio immunization campaign, becoming the second female driver at the country office. Joan's journey has not been without obstacles. She has faced gender stereotypes and skepticism from male colleagues and road users alike. Yet, she has consistently proven her capabilities through quick decision-making, time management, and a strong commitment to safety and professionalism. One of her most memorable moments came in 2021, during a circumcision campaign in Karamoja. When a nurse was suddenly unavailable due to an emergency, Joan stepped in to assist, showcasing her adaptability and dedication to service. Joan draws inspiration from trailblazing Ugandan women such as Justice Julia Sebutinde of the International Court of Justice and Jennifer Musisi, the first Executive Director of Kampala Capital City Authority. These role models have shown her that women can thrive in male-dominated spaces. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Transport and Logistics Management from Makerere University Business School, along with training in 4x4 defensive driving, first aid, and other relevant skills. Currently, Joan is pursuing further education in the same field, with the goal of becoming a fleet officer. She encourages young women to be resilient, professional, and open to continuous learning. Outside of work, Joan is a passionate advocate for healthy living. She works out three to four times a week and enjoys dancing, whether there's music or not. She also finds joy in gardening, often talking to her plants as she tends to them. Distributed by APO Group on behalf of World Health Organization - Uganda.
