The Makassed Philanthropic Islamic Association of Beirut organized a media gathering in which it presented association’s history, achievements and vision, followed by a lunch banquet.
The event took place at the nursing school of Makassed Hospital under the auspices of Caretaker Minister of Information, Ziad Makary.
In a word delivered on the occasion, Makary said that “hopes are pinned on three armies, thank to which Lebanon can breathe: the military security, the financial security, and social security.”
He also thanked the Makassed Association for the donation it granted to Télé Liban, and which allowed the state-run television to hire translators to translate the news bulletins into sign language.
