At the first row of the audience: Members of parliament Elie Aoun and Mohammed Hajjar and representatives of Presidents Amine Gemayel, General Michel Aoun, MP Walid Joumblatt and the commander in chief of the army, the Order of the press, the Syndicate of editors and families of martyrs of the press in Damour, dignitaries and presidents of municipalities in the region.
The coastal town of Damour made no exception this year, commemorating the 6 of May like each year, the memory of the martyrs of the press who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of thinking. However this year the meeting took a double meaning. Since another occasion took place that day, the inauguration of the new building of the Municipality of Damour, rebuilt with the help of the American people through the Lebanese army in the presence of a large number of officials, among them representatives of the presidents Amine Gemayel and Michel Aoun, MP Walid Joumblatt and the commander in chief of the army, as well as dignitaries from the city and its surroundings. Several speeches were made for the occasion.
