Greetings,
An agreement was reached with the Directorate of Public Health to paint the Rima Khadouri Hospital, provided that the said Directorate pays one hundred and sixty dinars and the Presidency of the Community pays an amount of fifteen dinars only. However, we made a second agreement with the painter to complete the painting with the amount received from the Directorate of Public Health if possible. Now, the painter has informed us that completing the work requires the payment of the fifteen dinars, and this was confirmed by Dr. Naeem Rabie.
Therefore, we kindly request approval to spend fifteen dinars to complete the painting.
