Mohamed Mounir.. Malamehna
Elham Aboul Fateh Mohamed Mounir's latest song "Malamehna" came to delight us as usual with his songs that touch the soul and heart. After an artistic silence that lasted more than a year, the king Mohamed Mounir returns with his new song, "Malamehna." He says, "Every time we photograph our features... we aren't always who we are. Sometimes we appear calmer in the picture... and sometimes we appear alone in the gathering. Every time we bak-pats ourselves… we are slaughtered by memories. Every time we gather our wounds… our hearts ache." What distinguishes Mounir is that he doesn't just present songs, but rather creates entire worlds of emotions. In "Malamehna," we hear that magical blend of authenticity and modernity that we've always longed for. The melody bears the imprint of ancient Nubia, while the lyrics touch upon the space shared by all Egyptians and Arabs—the space of memories, identity, and belonging. Mounir is a son of great Nubia, the brown land that gave birth to an ancient civilization with roots dating back thousands of years. Nubia is not just a place, but a civilization and a human heritage, the land of Pharaonic temples, towering mountains, and the Nile River. This great cultural heritage is reflected in Mounir's voice, where in his tones you hear the echo of ancestors' hymns, and in his melodies you sense the antiquity and radiance of the land. The beautiful thing about Mounir is that, despite his global fame, he has always remained a simple, knows exactly how to speak to people using the language of the heart. In "Malamehna," we find that rare balance between artistic depth, simplicity, and authenticity, modernity. The song is like a reassuring message to his listeners: "No matter how times change, there will always be true art that speaks to the soul." Mohamed Mounir has a long and varied artistic history, "El Leila Ya Samra", "Shajar El-Lemon" "Younes", ",Hadota Masreya" "Fi Eshk El Banat"... Over the course of decades, he has shaped our artistic and emotional features. It's strange that I haven't seen him honored, even though the whole world has honored him in Germany, America, and elsewhere. But I hope that he would be honored, and that musical festivals will celebrate him, or that we will name a music hall after him, or that his house in Nubia will be turned into a museum. Mohamed Mounir shaped a new generation emotionally, and this return is an occasion to celebrate and honor an artist who has been sowing joy in our hearts for years. Mounir, who sang about love, homeland, and life, returns today to remind us that true beauty never fades, and that some voices remain immortal because they are simply a part of us. Welcome back, the King, and all appreciation to that voice that has become a feature of our character. read more Analysis- Turkey Has 0 Regional Allies... Why? Analysis: Russia, Turkey...

What Your Favorite Movie Says About You
We don't just watch movies, we see ourselves in them. Everyone has that film. The one you rewatch a million times and never get bored of. The one that says something you've never said out loud. The one you saw at the right (or wrong) moment and left its mark. This isn't about the plot . It's about why this movie feels like it's perfectly made for you. A7la El Awqat — You still believe in being soft. If this is your favorite movie, you probably cry in silence, remember feelings, not objective facts. You believe in friendships that shift with time but never really break, just bend a little, like the women in this film. You're the kind of person who knows how to live between phone calls and missed chances. You're nostalgic, low-key romantic, and yes you're probably a fan of Mohamed Mounir. La Tarago3 Wala Esteslam — You survived everything with a punchline. You're the funny one but also the brave one. You take life with a sarcastic edge and you've mastered the art of laughing your way through things not many could handle. This movie speaks to the version of you that's tired of pretending to be 'serious enough.' You know how to find joy in chaos, and you're not afraid to be a little messy, as long as your loved ones don't get hurt. 122 — You feel safest when you know where the exits are. If this is your cup of tea, you're probably the one who notices the shift in tone before anyone else does. You read energy like your life depends on it. You've learned how to stay alert, not just in dark rooms, but in life. Some would call it anxiety. But even if you thrive on preparing for the worst, you still hope for the best. Kira w El Gen — You carry more than it shows. You love this movie because it reminds you of what it means to care deeply, not loudly. You see yourself in Kira's silence or Gen's fire, or somewhere in between. You're loyal, calculating, and emotional when no one's watching. You probably love your country, but not in the most obvious way. You've had people underestimate you, and you've let them but you're built for the long game. You don't need credit, just the win. Our favorite films don't just entertain us. They represent us. The fears, the hopes, the ways we love and the reasons we stay. Share your favorite movie with us in the comment section!

AfroMedia Initiative Concludes 'Late Journalist Mohamed Mounir' Training Course for Sudanese Media Professionals & Broadcasters
Rana Atef The AfroMedia Initiative for Journalism and Media has announced the conclusion of the training course it organized for a group of Sudanese media professionals, journalists, and workers in the Sudanese media sector who speak Arabic and reside in Egypt. The course was named after the late journalist Mohamed Mounir, who passed away in February. It was held under the aegis of Daily News Africa, with the participation of a distinguished group of specialized lecturers in the field of journalism and media. Anthropology researcher and international activist Hassan Ghazaly, founder of the AfroMedia Initiative, stated that the course was completely free and was named after the late writer and journalist Mohamed Mounir, a journalist at Al-Gomhuria newspaper, who passed away after a distinguished career in journalism and media. His dedicated work and patriotism towards Egypt and its African and Global South affiliations were evident through his numerous journalistic contributions on Africa and Egypt's leading role on the continent. The course covered many important topics over three days. On the first day, journalist Ahmed Mahmoud, Managing Editor of the Ahram Online English portal, lectured on 'Digital Journalism.' Journalist Mohamed Samir, Editor-in-Chief of Daily News Africa, spoke about 'The Experience of Ahram Online and Daily News Africa.' Additionally, Dr. Ayman Adly, Head of the Training and Education Committee at the Media Syndicate and a member of the African Journalists Union, delivered a lecture on 'The Key Attributes of a Good Media Professional.' On the second day, investigative journalist Mohamed Magdy Abouzeid presented a session on 'Using Artificial Intelligence to Detect Misinformation in Images and Videos."' Moreover, Journalist Mohamed Al-Mamlouk, Editor-in-Chief of Cairo 24, discussed 'The Experience of Using Artificial Intelligence in Journalism.' On the third day, Dr. Osama Al-Qadi, a distinguished journalist with extensive experience in media training and university teaching, lectured on 'AI Tools in Media Content Creation.' Additionally, journalist and international trainer Iman Al-Warraqi, founder of the Artificial Intelligence Revolution Initiative, delivered a session titled 'AI Creativity: Strategies and Techniques for Innovative Content Creation.' Ghazaly emphasized that the course resulted in several key recommendations from the participating experts and Sudanese media professionals, including: A- The importance of developing positive relations between the peoples of the Nile Valley. B- Protecting young people from cultural invasion through education and heritage-based cultural and creative initiatives. C- Integrating local cultural content into educational curricula to enhance national and cultural identity. D- Encouraging local artists and writers to produce works that reflect cultural identity and inspire youth. E- Considering potential joint projects in the near future and reviewing the role of media in shaping social and cultural influences in Arab and Islamic societies. F- Establishing an online platform to facilitate cultural and social connections, with participation from scholars as a foundation for real engagement between Nile Valley communities. G- Increasing training courses for media professionals, especially in the field of artificial intelligence. H- Organizing visits to major Egyptian media institutions to enrich the experience of all trainees. I- Strengthening the AfroMedia Initiative's role in media and cultural activities in Sudan once security conditions stabilize. J- Emphasizing the necessity of employing artificial intelligence technologies in contemporary media, particularly in visual and audio broadcasting. On the final day of the course, participants expressed their gratitude to the Egyptian state and the AfroMedia Initiative. Certificates were awarded, and trainers were honored. The participants voluntarily prepared a banquet featuring Sudanese and Egyptian delicacies, symbolizing cultural and social closeness. They also spontaneously and collectively sang the song of the late Sudanese icon Dr. Abdel Karim AlKabli, 'Egypt, O Sister of My Country,' accompanied by the melodies of the Nile Valley. It is worth mentioning that the AfroMedia Initiative operates under the slogan 'The Voice of Egypt… The Voice of Africa' and is one of the initiatives under the Global Solidarity Network. It was founded by anthropology researcher Hassan Ghazaly in February 2021 to strengthen journalistic and media relations between Egypt and African nations. The initiative focuses on developing the skills of journalists and media professionals to accurately portray Africa's image, fostering media cooperation between African peoples, and serving as a media bridge between Egyptians and other African communities. It seeks to coordinate efforts and organize a unified media narrative between Egyptian and non-Egyptian Africans, ensuring an accurate and positive perception of Africa. Moreover, it aims to educate and train Egyptian journalists and media professionals on African-related content in general.
