The LLWB visits the Al Sa2eh bookshop in Tripoli in solidarity

The president of Lebanese League for Women in Business (LLWB), Ms. Leila Karameh, visited yesterday, along with a women delegation, the Al S2aeh bookshop and Father Ibrahim Srooj.  The visit was to convey to the bookshop caretaker of the commitment and disposition of the association to extend all possible resources to support the bookshop and the role it plays.  The visitors also condemned actions that undermine tourism, economy and culture. Karameh noted that burning books and manuscripts tantamount to abolishing national roots.  Father Srooj indicated for his part that repairs have already started with the efforts of civil society organisations and with the contributions of individual donors and the business community.
