About 11 miles off the Egyptian shore, a boat that was leaving for western Europe sank, killing at least 190 people, mostly single men in their 20s, searching for a new job and life in Europe after the 2011 rising, which killed the economy. The Egyptian president says that this is a terrible tragedy, and the people of Egypt need to come together and restore the economy so those that want to leave don't have to, since their own economy is good enough. He also said "Don't leave your country and go, you can develop it if you will just join hands with us."
This is a terrible thing to happen to Egypt, but what the president says is true. The solution is not to just leave, because that will dump more work on those who stay. it seems that his suggestions make a lot of sense, as the most tried and true way to improve an economy is to create more jobs, and you need people to have jobs.

I agree with you that the people should stay and help their own economy grow because if everyone just leaves, then Egypt won't ever prosper.
