This new town is no oasis. With a population of just 250,000, the 10th of Ramadan is an industrial hub, not an idyllic getaway. The government has poured millions into afforestation and infrastructure, but the relentless desert climate and bureaucratic headaches are a persistent challenge. Factories provide over 350,000 jobs, but the annual wage totals a meager 18.3 million pounds. Those seeking an easy life in the sun would be wise to look elsewhere - this city is for the determined worker, not the leisurely expatriate.
