The Egyptian president announces to his fellow citizens : “Famine is the price to pay to build progress"
- Are you putting all your tip from last night on him ? You seem very confident. You know something ... tell me!
- I just feel it you know ... he broke all records.
- Yeah ... well I bet on Biden.
He's an international champion!
- The American ?
- Yes ma'am ! His pearls are legendary : last month, during a NATO summit, he named the Ukrainian president "Vladimir" while describing his courage and intelligence. It hasn't escaped anyone's notice that the Russian who is at war with Ukraine is called Vladimir.
- Yeah, but it's not all that big of a deal. The Ukrainian president's name is "Volodymyr"... I mean, you can confuse "Vladimir" with "Volodymyr".
The Chef places the two plates he had just finished on the counter, looks at the waitress and says :

- Ok. But what do you say about that : he confused Iraq and Ukraine.
- What ?!
- He said : "Putin is clearly losing the war in Iraq."


- You're not serious.
- I'm not kidding. What's wonderful about him is that it's not over !
He said in front of everyone, at the start of the war between Ukraine and Russia, that "Putin may be surrounding Kiev with his tanks, but he will never win the hearts of the Iranian people ".
- What do you mean “Iranian” ? What do Iranians have to do with this ?

- Exactly ! Nothing ! Nada ... zero. He is absolutely out of his mind. But above all, he's the one in charge of the nuclear button.


- Yeah ... Still, he doesn't exceed mine.
- Who's yours ?
- Sisi.
- Ok, but what’s his name?
- ... no, his name is Sisi !
- And what did this guy do ?
- He had a memorable speech.
- Just one speech?
- Only one.
"- Three Wagyu for table 32! Where are we?" - shouted the head waiter into their headset.
- On the way ! - launched the waitress into her microphone, while taking the two plates from the counter.
"- 'On the way' is what you should have said five minutes ago. I want to hear : 'Served'!"
- Yes sir ! - answers the waitress.
Just before leaving the kitchen, she shouted to the chef:
- You'll see, quality will win, not quantity!
But he was already busy correcting the mistake of one of his recruits when cooking one of the ducks.
In the ceremony room, she headed towards table 32. After many forced smiles and contortions, she headed towards the bar to ask for a "thirst quencher", when she heard the presenter of the evening announce to her entire audience :
- Ladies and gentlemen, my dear guests. The time has come to discover the person who represented us best for the 2023 BWPFFOC award !
Who went above and beyond to represent and to show to the whole world the attitude and the philosophy to adopt for a better world and a prosperous future for our children.
The waitress asked the bartender for a shot of vodka, placed her tray on the bar and decided to follow the rest of the ceremony, her two elbows resting on the counter.
The presenter took out a piece of paper from an envelope and announced :
- With more than 95% of the votes, it is the Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi who wins the 2023 trophy. A round of applause for him please !
Applause broke out and whistles of congratulations erupted from the ceremony guests.
- Let's listen without further ado to some of the sentences that allowed him to win this 111th ceremony.
The entire room sank into darkness and we could see above the stage on the big screen, Sisi speaking to his fellow citizens:
"- Don't dare say that you would prefer to eat rather than build progress. If the price of the progress and prosperity of the nation is to be hungry and thirsty, then let us not eat or drink.
[...]

I'll give you an example of how this could be done : university students could earn a respectable salary by donating blood twice a week."


The audience could be seen during his speech consisting of rows of mostly men in suits or military uniforms.
"- Do not undermine the goal of our Nation. Do not make us the laughing stock of the whole world. Pull yourself together and transform the cruel circumstances we are experiencing into an opportunity. The sooner you pull yourself together, the sooner the economic crisis will disappear".
His audience applauded him loudly and suddenly stopped.
Sisi could be seen leafing through some papers placed on his desk overlooking the audience from his platform and brandished one with his raised arm, threatening everyone.

"I consulted the Supreme Judicial Council about being able to easily destroy our country by giving Tramadol to 100,000 people in poverty. It would only cost us $30 million."


The war in Ukraine has drastically affected the price of food in Egypt, which historically depends on the wheat that this country produces.
