Damietta's industries

The Industry section mentions one of Damiatta's economic sectors as being "Pattisiare".

This means nothing in English; the tiny handful of Google hits for this term point either to this article or to one of the various parasitic sites that profit by redistributing Wikipedia's content.

Unless someone can amend "pattisiare" to something meaningful, this item on the list should be deleted.

Additionally, Damietta's export furniture industry is immensely vibrant, and is exceptionally productive compared with the remainder of Egypt's economy -- to the extent that the city's level of unemployment, by contrast with the rest of Egypt, stands at just over 0%. Its activities deserve fuller treatment from someone more knowledgeable about the details than I am.
