Zahi Hawss on Egypt and Archaeology

http://www.gulfnews.com/Articles/FeaturesNF.asp?ArticleID=163628
Zahi Hawass talking about just about everything - the role of Egyptology in the country's economy, the preservation of monuments and the need to control tourist numbers, on the National Geographic Channel programme about Tutankhamun, on the regulation of numbers of foreign archaeologists in Egypt, the role of Egyptian Egyptologists, the repatriation of stolen artefacts, and how he is better known than a film star. There is also a short biography of Hawass at the end of the article.
