Under hard-hitting questioning by CBS Cairo Correspondent Frank Kearns, Nasser composedly kept returning to a pat explanation for Egypt...

MIDEC's main function, says Rykens, will be to bring together Arab businessmen with capital to invest and Western outfits with the necessary know-how who will be willing to accept a minority interest. Tentatively. Rykens has set a ceiling of 40% for Western financial participation. MIDEC will concentrate initially on small industrial enterprises such as paper mills, breweries, fertilizer, bicycle, textile and chemical plants.
