Apr 25, 2014
Lattakia, (SANA) Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi inspected Friday toured
several sites and inspected a number of vital and development projects
in the coastal city of Lattakia, including military hospital and the
city's port.
Al-Halqi hailed the sacrifices made by the army members in defense
of the homeland during a visit he paid to injured soldiers in the
Military Hospital.
He affirmed that the government is going ahead with securing the best
of medical care for the injured army personnel, including post-surgery
treatment particularly for those who totally or partially lost
some organs.
Visiting a checkpoint of the army and national defense forces, al-Halqi
stressed that the sacrifices of the armed forces will not go in vain,
"as they will rather yield great victories that will be immortalized
in the Syria's modern history and outline the features of the strong
steadfast Syria".
The Premier also paid a visit to two makeshift residential centers
in the Armenian Orthodox Church of Virgin Mary and Jihad Mashi high
school which host people who were displaced from Kassab after the
recent Turkish-facilitated terrorist assault on the town.
The premier inspected the living conditions of families at the shelters
and the level of food, medical and educational services provided.
Al-Halqi's tour in the city included a visit to the Port of Lattakia
where he listened to a review on the work situation, the movement of
vessels entering or leaving the port and the unloading and delivery
of goods.
He saw the "unusual frequent movement" of arriving and departing
vessels and ships as an indication of the state of recovery the
country is currently going through.
He highlighted in a statement to the reporters the importance of
Syria's ports, through which he said the government has been securing
all food provision stuff and reconstruction requirements.
The government's efforts in this regard, which are further pushed
forward by President Bashar al-Assad, aim at propping up the
requirements of the Syrian people's steadfastness and bolstering
their strategic and development reserves, he added.
Premier al-Halqi also visited the grave of late President Hafez
al-Assad in the city of Qardaha where he laid a wreath and read Quran
(al-Fatiha) for the repose of his soul.
He said the late President is one of the greatest leaders in Syria
and the world whose names went down in the history registers of Syria
and the free world with "letters of brightness and pride".
Hafez al-Assad, al-Halqi added, "was one of the emblems of
steadfastness and resistance and the defender of the just humane Arab
and international issues".
He made it clear that the "legendary steadfastness" which Syria is now
living has its deep roots in President Hafez al-Assad's building of the
state of institutions that is Syria, adding that this steadfastness
has further grown and been consolidated under the wise leadership of
President Bashar al-Assad.
The Premier also visited a mobile electric power subscriber service
center , which carry out tours and provide services in all areas,
and al-Bassel Hospital in Qardaha where he listened to the patients'
evaluation of the services provided and the medical cadres' review
of needs.
A number of ministers, including those of Local Administration,
Electricity, Agriculture, Housing and Urban Development, Industry
and Transport , accompanied the Premier on his tour.
A similar tour in the city was carried out by Premier al-Halqi the
previous day during which he laid the foundation stones of and
inaugurated a number of vital development projects at a cost of
approximately SYP 4 billion.
Some of the projects included the inauguration of al-Kabo power station
at an overall value of SYP 1.4 billion and laying the cornerstone of
the Youth Residence worth SYP 2.4 billion, in addition to improving
services at Martyr Bassel al-Assad International Airport at an overall
value of SYP 150 million.
