IDCS Highlights Preparations for Safe, Free Eid al-Adha Slaughter Services
Ahmed Emam As Eid al-Adha approaches, Egypt's Cabinet Information and Decision Support Center (IDCS) has highlighted intensive preparations by the General Authority for Veterinary Services (GAVS) under the Ministry of Agriculture to ensure free and safe sacrificial slaughter services that comply with both religious and health regulations. In a series of video interviews released by the center, Dr. Hamed Moussa El-Aknes, Chairman of the GAVS, emphasized the comprehensive readiness of public abattoirs across all governorates. According to GAVS, these facilities have been fully equipped, with repaired slaughter tools, adequate sanitizers, and essential supplies. Moreover, veterinary teams have been reinforced to supervise slaughter operations and ensure that all procedures are carried out safely and in full compliance with health and religious standards. Dr. El-Aknes announced that a state of emergency was declared in the days leading up to the holiday, noting that this crucial measure, in coordination with the Animal Inspection Department, is designed to enhance market surveillance and prevent unregulated slaughter outside licensed abattoirs—a key step in protecting public health and meat safety. A notable highlight of the preparations is the full coordination with governors to offer free-of-charge slaughter services at government facilities. This initiative aims to promote safe, supervised slaughter practices and eliminate the risks associated with unregulated home slaughtering, which often poses health and environmental hazards. The GAVS head stressed the importance of adhering to religious criteria when selecting sacrificial animals. He advised citizens to ensure that their animals are healthy, active, and physically sound, with clear eyes and shiny coats—important indicators for religious acceptability and overall meat quality. Dr. El-Aknes urged citizens to utilize the free public slaughterhouses, describing this as a critical measure to prevent the spread of diseases, preserve the environment, and uphold religious and veterinary standards. He also called on the public to be vigilant in choosing their animals, ensuring they meet all necessary health and religious conditions, so that this important religious rite is fulfilled with dignity, safety, and respect for its spiritual and communal values. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream

Aswan's Zen Wellness Goes Global with Langkawi Launch
Born on the Nile, Zen Wellness expands its vision to Southeast Asia with a new Langkawi retreat that reimagines what conscious travel can look like. The Nile was only the beginning. In the stillness of Aswan, where desert meets river and time feels suspended, Zen Wellness took shape—not as a trend or a transaction, but as a place where healing could be felt as much as prescribed. Part clinic, part retreat, it was quiet in its revolution: a space for reflection, for breath, for beginning again. Now, that quiet revolution is going global. MGM Health & Wellness—the international company behind Zen Wellness - is expanding its vision to Southeast Asia with the launch of The Zen Wellness Resort Langkawi, a 69-acre rainforest sanctuary perched above the Andaman Sea. At the heart of the company is a collective of Egyptian regenerative experts who helped shape the brand's first chapter in Aswan and now carry its philosophy into new terrain. Developed in partnership with ALAA Consultancy, the Langkawi retreat is designed not just to pamper, but to recalibrate. It's a blueprint for regenerative hospitality - where science meets soul, and travel becomes a tool for environmental, personal, and cultural renewal. 'This cooperation aims to provide the services that the company excels in, based on its practical experience in the field of hospitality and sustainable wellness programs, to create economic value and maximize natural environmental benefits,' says Mohey Mahmoud, CEO of MGM Health & Wellness International. To guide this new chapter, MGM has brought together a team of regenerative thinkers and practitioners from around the world - quietly influential, radically aligned - who see wellness not as escapism, but as stewardship. Langkawi, with its cinematic landscapes and rising medical tourism appeal, offers an ideal canvas. 'Wellness is one of those services that needs a truly distinguished location to deliver meaningful programs,' says Husna Nashim, CEO of ALAA Consultancy. 'Malaysia has what it takes to become a global wellness destination.' The resort's 99 rooms, suites, and private villas are designed for immersion, not indulgence. Morning breathwork unfolds over island archipelagos. Meals are composed with both nutrients and narrative in mind. Healing here is not isolated in a spa -it's built into the land, the movement, the intention behind every detail. But Langkawi is not the end goal. It's a portal to a broader vision. This year, MGM is taking its regenerative ethos on the road, launching a six-month Wellness Roadshow across Egypt with immersive activations in Almaza Bay, Siwa, Fayoum, Dakhla, Marsa Alam, and Aswan. Expect wellness tastings, integrative demos, and thought-led programming that moves the concept out of the retreat and into everyday life. Still, the origin point remains vital. The Zen Wellness Clinic in Aswan continues as a cornerstone of the philosophy: a permanent sanctuary for rest and realignment. Just next door, the MGM Creative Hub reimagines the relationship between wellness and work, offering riverside coworking infused with clarity, community, and calm. In a wellness industry often overrun by aesthetic trends and borrowed rituals, MGM's approach offers something rare: a model that is locally anchored, globally resonant, and deeply regenerative by design. Langkawi is the next frontier - but the soul of the story still flows through the Nile.
