The Giza zoo is staying in its place at least for now according to the following :
- Parts of it have been registered as Islamic monuments in Egypt as part of the khedival heritage :) “Yes at last Farouk Hosni who is dying for the UNESCO position found out along with Dr. Zahi Hawas that our Giza is more than 100 years old and it is the second oldest Zoo in the world.”
- The minister of Agriculture Amin Abaza has denied the rumor over and over
The first decision is very important because it recognizes some parts as momentums with historical importance , of course I wonder about the status of other areas which mainly are the animal areas.
Still there is a rumor , a strong rumor that Palm Hill Developments Company wants to buy both the Giza Zoo land and the Orman Park “besides the Zoo” for investment projects. Orman is as old as the Zoo , it is another Khedival achievement. Now there is a little info about PHD you must know : Its owners are Mansour and Maghrabi group and Mahmoud El-Gamal. Mansour as in Lotfi Mansour the current minister of transportation and his brother Yassin Mansour , Maghrabi as Ahmed El-Maghrabi the minister of housing where as Mahmoud El-Gamal as Gamal Mubarak’s father in law !!!
I do not know if the public refusal for selling the Giza Zoo and transferring it to October and the decision of the high supreme council of antiquities will stop PHD and those behind it or not , at least till this era is over because as soon as this era falls , they will fall with it.
