VOICED : Defiant Egypt workers pose challenge to next president

The video discusses the economic struggles of Mahala, a city in the Nile Delta, where workers earn insufficient wages. It highlights the demands of Egyptian laborers for freedom, social justice, and fair wages, drawing parallels to past protests that led to the ousting of leaders like Mubarak and Morsi.
