Civilians become militia to ensure their safety, long queues outside food shops ... The protests have disrupted the daily life of Egyptians, particularly affecting the food supply. In Cairo, cash machines have been refilled for the first time on Wednesday, but convenience stores scattered rays are always taken by storm.
Pending a return to normal, the Egyptians are trying to organize ... "If this situation continues, the supply will be a real problem" by Nada Despite all that lives unbearable as days between extreme joy, fear, dreams of a better country, optimism despite fears of a future unknown For me, the measures of curfews and supply difficulties in the stores are not a problem.
I am desperate to make my country a better place. Student at Cairo University, my exams were postponed until who knows when. At the same time, it does not bother me, because in this situation, it would be impossible to pass exams. Specifically, in stores, some products begin to fail, even if some information tend to be distorted and exaggerated by the Egyptian media and others to proclaim the need to accept anything the president thinks we provide to save the situation.
But if this situation continues, the supply will be a real problem. As for communication with relatives, the phones have been the case, but psychologically it felt repressed by the regime when he interrupted Internet and mobile services. "He has not been possible to transfer the salaries of my employees in January" by Lawrence this morning (Wednesday) at market prices, have clearly increased compared to yesterday.
Yet the vegetables are always fresh and it does not seem to be any supply problems. In supermarkets, the situation is different. They have been under assault since the protests began. Monday there was a continual ballet between the storage of foodstuffs and the store so the demand was great.
Today, the shelves are filled only a third, barely, and there is more supply. I run a factory in the suburb of Alexandria where the guards have taken refuge. For now the factory has not been contested. He has not been possible to transfer the January salary to my employees because banks are still closed.
Hopefully a return to normal Sunday, and I hope to restart my business. [...] Today, after several days and nights on the street, there's nobody who is pro-Mubarak. His departure is by all. All aspire to return to normal life: sleeping in bed, eating, working. "At 17 hours, the procession of barriers and controls directed by civilians" by Amanda In Alexandria, daily life has changed considerably.
Mornings are spent in search of basic necessities, shops and supermarkets, where customers are filtered, are under attack. A curfew rings at 17 hours, the pace of the city fell at once and there is the procession of barriers and controls run by civilians in these neighborhoods are organized on patrol wearing white armbands are registered and all night in different neighborhoods in a caring atmosphere and allow people to know themselves better and these brigades provide the calm and cleanliness.
Indeed, since the beginning of events, cleaning services have ceased to maintain a minimum level of cleanliness and garbage collection have been burned. "We take our protection in hand" by Fady I am a medical student. Last week my life has been severely disrupted since our day was summed up in search of stolen cars, stolen goods.
In passing through my neighborhood with my friends, we control the vehicle registration of cars, we take our hand protection. I miss my old life, surf the Web and communicate freely with my friends ... My life now is about listening to our local TV stations such as Al-Jazeera. Now the curfew made us take three times longer pressing for shopping at night.
Pharmacies and supermarkets sell everything they have and do not know when they will be supplied. A pharmacist told me: "Soon I will soldier." [...] "People were stocking up on food, bread, gasoline and money" by Elodie teacher in a French school in Cairo, I live in a northern district of the city, far enough away downtown.
We stopped working on Thursday last, the situation becomes more difficult. Indeed, Friday, or any means of communication was almost cut. There remained only the phone on which I could receive calls from my relatives. That same day began the curfew. People were stocking up on food, bread, fuel and money.
For now, the store where I usually go is still well stocked. During the day, we could always run smoothly. The nights, by cons are always agitated. Like everywhere, people watching the streets thanks to the dams, but sometimes occur screams, gunfire, stirring noticeable, even on the fourth floor.
The days are long without the Internet, without leaving the international channels. A kind of test to remain virtually trapped in this city that knows no rest usually. In addition, all the shops, or nearly so, who do not sell food, are closed, the windows protected by wooden boards or covered with white paint to prevent looters.
"We've downloaded proxies to circumvent censorship" by Novinha Twitteuse diligent, I followed the preparation of the first major event of 25 January. First they cut Twitter and Facebook but we downloaded proxies to circumvent censorship and continued to relay information. [...] And then Friday morning, was cut off Internet and mobile.
We followed the events on the international channels (Al Jazeera English, BBC World, CNN, TV5). We used our landlines (local only), which allowed us, among friends, we relay information ... And rumors sometimes terrible and difficult to verify or disprove. [...] The children were anxious at first, but we were hosted by friends worried about their safety in their home located a few miles from here, they could play with their friends and think of something else.
In the street at night, militias continue to run after closing the streets with makeshift equipment. We have reservations and want for nothing. The stores began to reopen today.
