Though the project doesn't begin yet, I can image that this bridge may bring business for many Arabian nations in the east Africa and the Middle East. When the bridge is constructed, people have another choice to travel between the Africa and the Asia. The Suez Canal will not the only way to communicate the Africa and the Asia anymore.
