[QUOTE]Originally posted by Madame M.: [QB] Although I agree with this I will say something as far as quality goes. I've read the tags inside the clothing for sale in Egypt. Most of the tags say "made in China". Much of the clothing we buy here in the states is made in China, Taiwan, etc. The quality is much, much higher here in the states than anything you can find in Egypt. I find that very unfortunate. Why aren't Egyptians offered the same quality as we are here in the West? I realize that Egypt, for the most part, is an economically poor country. But I don't agree that the Egyptian people should be punished for their gov't's economic downfall. While I was there I saw some of the most pathetic sights. Small children, alone, begging in the streets. Where are their parents? Does poverty really make people lose all dignity? It's really the Egyptian Gov't's fault why some of the people have it so hard and are reduced to pandering, begging, lying and cheating. I love Egypt very much and plan on living there permanently one day, inshallah. I have great respect for the people and their culture. I was never mistreated by anyone during my time there. The only instance of a shop keeper trying to rip my husband and me off happened outside of Mohamed Ali Mosque/Sala'adin Citadel. We bought batteries from this shopkeeper the first time we went and he charged us 8LE. Two days later we went again and bought batteries from the same shopkeeper, he wanted to charge 15LE. Why you ask? Because the second time he actually heard me speak to my husband. He knew I was a foreigner and figured he could get more money. My husband called him out on this and told him he will pay him the same price he paid him two days before.

OMGGG shopping should be fun not a hassle of me running to avoid these annoying people. [/QB][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
