On The State of Egypt by Alaa Al Aswany<\/p>\n
The author, Alaa, recalls the two incidences that happened to him during his university education in Cairo and in the U.S. when undertaking his master\u2019s degree. He recognized the differences in the two education system by citing a lack of civilian protection in Egypt as the case in the United States where the students are protected by the institutional policies and regulation. Unlike in the U.S. where the system defines the expected code of conducts, Egypt lacks protection as the power is vested in authority and individuals sitting in those positions have the autonomy and authority to dictate their subjects (Alaa 181). As the author describes it \u201cmany people obtain things they do not deserve as a result of their personal connections or their ability to pay bribes, or because the security agencies or the ruling part have selected them.\u201d (Alaa 182). <\/p>\n
The above statement described the lack of democracy and moral standing in Egypt as the \u201cthe law in Egypt is usually applied only against the weak, who cannot escape it of obstruct it\u201d. Given these statements by the author, I strongly support the need for institutional reforms in Egypt. Reforming the systems and institutions would be an important step toward the creation of a fair and just society for all Egyptians irrespective of one\u2019s social, economic, and religious status. Besides, moral reform is also important as this would bring a change in the moral status of the Egyptian authorities. To make Egypt an equal nation, both moral and institutional reforms must be undertaken. <\/p>\n
