People Are Praising Tamer Amin for Standing Up for Employees Amid 9PM Closures
As businesses across Egypt adjust to the enforced 9PM closure rule, many workers in cafes and restaurants have found themselves facing reduced hours, salary cuts, and even layoffs.
TV presenter Tamer Amin has stepped into the conversation, using his platform to highlight the human side of the situation. In a message shared on social media, he urged business owners to show compassion toward their employees, stressing that the current circumstances are entirely beyond their control.
“It’s not their fault,” he emphasized.
Drawing from personal experience, Amin pointed out that employees should not bear the financial burden of a situation they did not cause. He argued that letting staff go, reducing their salaries, or forcing unpaid leave during this period would be unfair.
Instead, he called on those who are financially able to absorb short-term losses for a month or two, framing it as a necessary act of solidarity during a challenging time.
His words quickly struck a chord online, with many praising his stance and echoing the importance of supporting workers through uncertainty. Across social media, users described his message as timely, empathetic, and a reminder that collective responsibility matters now more than ever.
