Somerset Maugham's Malaysia: Sarawak and Sabah, Part 1/2Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
January 16, 2014
To motivate my touring of the island of Borneo with temperature in the 30s and humidity in the 90s - just the thought of it moisten my face with drops of sweat that run off my forehead and over my glasses - I read the 1869 two-volume classic by Dr. Alfred Russel Wallace; The Malay Archipelago, the Land of the Orang-Utan and the Bird of Paradise.
Visiting Brunei the Abode of PeaceProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
January 16, 2014
Several reasons motivated me to visit Brunei. It is oil rich, tiny, safe, not touristy, has a Malay Islamic culture and a beautiful nature. Two more: (1) Its head of state Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah is a graduate of Egypt's Al Azhar and (2) Brunei is ranked in the top ten of the happiest country in the world along with Canada. Literacy rate here is among the highest in the world at about 95%.

January 15, 2015
(Cairo) By now, the entire world knows about Said and Cherif Kouachi. They were brothers, home radicalized and Yemen trained, who methodically carried out the horrific January 7 attack that killed multiple staff members of the Paris-based satirical magazine, Charlie Hebdo.
Upper Egypt: conservative Muslim but not extremist Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
February 3, 2015
I strongly believe that Upper Egypt (the Sa'id) can offer the rest of the country and the world a model Muslim society that is conservative, but not extremist; traditional, but modern; humble, yet proud in the values of practical self-reliance and acceptance of others. While no society is perfect, I found that the Sa'id models so much that a healthy society can and should be - yet it is all but unknown, even to other Egyptians.
