And Kodak Agfa proudly presents its photo report about Ramadan Lanterns 2012 in Cairo and Giza “Mainly Giza”
This year I found that many Egyptians unlike any other year are buying lanterns whether for their homes or for themselves. Again the Chinese plastic lanterns dominate the market threatening the handmade Egyptian tin tradition lanterns. This year I found Sponge Bob as Ramadan Lantern !!

Activists in Egypt tried to push for a campaign to boycott the Chinese lanterns in solidarity with Syria. It is only virtual Facebook campaign that got power on the ground unfortunately. Already it was launched too late and nobody heard about to be honest outside couple of thousands on Facebook.
Anyhow long live our Egyptian lantern.
