Egypt: Arab Youth on a Presidential Mission

"Arab Youth on a Presidential Mission" is a new initiative by Radio Horytna aiming at empowering youth and encouraging them to have a positive role through their political involvement on the political arena in their countries. Quoting Ahmed Samih, the managing director of Radio Horytna, "this initiative gives any young man or woman the opportunity to nominate himself, or herself, as a presidential candidate for any Arab country of their choice. The only condition would be creative thinking, full awareness of the problems in the Arab world, and a clear realistic vision of providing viable solutions for these problems."

To take part in this initiative you have to be:
A young Arab man or woman, under the age of 30, creative, expressive, relentless, and a firm believer in human rights and their ability to change people's lives for the better.

The whole idea started when we created a facebook group titled "Radio Horytna sends Arab Youth on a Presidential Mission" and we asked members a hypothetical question: Have you ever imagined yourself as the president and ruler of an Arab country?
Radio Horytna is now giving you the chance to become the leader of any Arab country of your choice … prepare your thoughts and ideas and get ready for the biggest challenge … we need people with vision and a fresh outlook … young people who are capable of positive thinking and accountability … we do not want people who will blabber on about the negatives in the Arab World … we want people who could bring realistic solutions to the table.
