    (MENAFN) Revenue from Egypt's Suez Canal stood at USD3.18bn in the Jan- August period this year, an increase by 4 percent from USD3.05bn in the same period 2015.

    However, the country has been struggling to revive its economy since a 2011 uprising scared away tourists and foreign investors.

    In addition, reserves fell down to USD17.546bn in June from almost USD36bn before the uprising.
