expert as prime minister, Hesham Kandil was the minister for water
resources and irrigation in the interim government set up after longtime
president Hosni Mubarak was ousted last year.Born in 1962, Hesham
Kandil studied at a graduate school in the United States. He worked on
an irrigation project on the Nile River as an engineer.
Hesham Kandil does not belong to any political party. Egyptian media
call his appointment surprising, because he has little political
experience.Poltiical analysts pin opinion Morsi has chosen the prime
minister from outside his Muslim Brotherhood group to reach out to the
young, supporters of the former government and people who are wary of
religious influence on politics
