Posted: Fri Dec 20, 2019 10:02 am
Two years after the United Arab Emirates (UAE) created the region’s first Ministry of Happiness and Wellbeing in 2017, its ranking went from 28 to 21 in the 2019 World Happiness Report.
Egypt was ranked 137 out of 156 countries in the same report and, what may come as a surprise to some, less economically developed or politically stable countries like Lebanon, Libya and Somalia ranked higher on the happiness scale.

The scale measures factors such as social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity and transparency versus corruption.
That being so, one can only express surprise that Egypt did as well as 19th from bottom.
