Development and Liberation bloc member, MP Kassem Hashem stressed Sunday that "the conditions are favorable for investing in the positive atmosphere prevailing in the country since the meeting in Baabda, and after all the forces have expressed their readiness to respond to the nation's interests which have become more pressing, requiring a delicate approach to the critical economic situation."
He added: "It is the responsibility of the government to play its role and turn into a productive cell with intensive meetings to address all economic and daily-life issues."
The MP considered that the numerous dossiers at stake "call for a new type of engagement that would restore some of the confidence lost between the people and their state."
Hashem's words came in a statement following his meeting with the head and members of the municipal council of the Southern town of Adaishet - al-Qusair earlier on Sunday.
Marking the July 2006 Victory, the MP saluted the people of the town for their steadfastness and courage in adhering to their land and roots. He also reiterated House Speaker Berri's affirmation of remaining biased towards citizens' issues and rights, and following up on all their needs throughout the entire nation.
Hashem confirmed as well that the Finance Minister is keen on ensuring that all remaining dues to municipalities are paid before the end of August, adding that his Bloc will follow-up with the concerned sides on the requirements of municipalities since they are the pathway to local development.
