Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi promised on Tuesday to boost the country's economic effectiveness and adaptability after winning a third term in power.

El-Sisi, 69, was sworn in as president on Tuesday, following a landslide victory in the December election, when he received over 90% of the vote.

In a keynote address, El-Sisi laid out the aims of his new six-year term, promising to "adopt strategies that maximize Egypt's economic capabilities and resources, and enhance the solidity and resilience of the Egyptian economy in the face of crises."

The president also stated that he would seek "sustainable and balanced" economic growth, supported by a larger private sector, as well as increased contributions from agriculture, industry, technology, and tourism.

Egypt will also strive to become a regional hub for transport and transit commerce, including increasing the economic importance of the Suez Canal, he speculated. 

El-Sisi stated that his administration will attempt to enhance national discussion to increase political and democratic participation, particularly among young people. He also vowed to preserve Egypt's national security and to establish balanced ties with everyone involved as a "new world in the making."
