Aoun greets workers on Labor Day, calls for productive economy
President Michel Aoun on Sunday greeted Lebanese workers as the country marked Labor Day, pledging that he will continue to work for “transforming Lebanon’s economy from a rentier economy into a productive one.”
“From the middle of the difficult circumstances that we are suffering, I address an appreciation salutation to every Lebanese worker,” Aoun said in a statement.
“I pledge to the Lebanese and to workers that I will continue to work to dispel the clouds of the crises that resulted from years of accumulations, for which Lebanon’s workers paid hefty prices,” the President added.
They can make “the biggest contribution in transforming Lebanon’s economy from a rentier economy into a productive one that would keep our country’s sons in their homeland and grant them a promising future,” Aoun went on to say.
