EAS Next Meeting

Dear members and friends of the EAS,

The next Egyptian American Society meeting will take place on April 19th, 6:00 to 9:00 PM, at Cafe Layal. The cafe is located at Richmond Avenue @ Unity Drive and serves mixed grills and a variety of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foods. We ask each person to please pay for themselves as he/she walk into the restaurant.

In this month's meeting, we are honored to host H.E. Ambassador Al-Husseiny Abdel-Wahab, Egyptian Consul General in Houston, who will talk to us about the current investment climate in Egypt and the impact of recent tax reforms. Following the presentation, we will have a question and answer session.

Please plan on being there.
