Al-Makari Announces Launch Of “Telethon For Tele-Liban”: We Will Stay With The State Even Though It Is Escaping US; Our Presence Today Is An Act Of Faith In It

Minister of Information, Ziad Al-Makari, held a press conference on Friday evening at the “Beirut House – Sodeco” to launch the telethon for Lebanon’s TV, scheduled for June 2022 following Pope Francis’s visit to Lebanon.

After the national anthem, Al-Makari gave a speech welcoming the attendees, saying: “You are here to lay the first cornerstone in the process of rebuilding the image of the state that resembles us, by rebuilding the image of Tele-Liban…”

“It is not by chance that we chose ‘Beirut House’ to launch the largest television project from…We chose it for its symbolism, and we are here to say that we will stay with the state even though it is escaping from us…Everybody wonders how we will develop the television station while the state is broke…We simply reiterate that the human ressources are more important than the capital,” he added.

“The telethon, the date of which we are here today to announce, is not only to collect funds to rehabilitate the screen in form, but it is also to collect energies to reconstruct it in terms of content…and the telethon date will be in June 2022,” Al-Makari concluded.
