He also stressed on developing the industrial sector of the country

On the socio-cultural axis, the health map of the of the country will be evenly distributed with the introduction of a health insurance for all as well as the development of the pharmaceutical sector. The construction of a multicultural complex in all the ten regions as well as improving on the status of artists and the construction of sports infrastructure will be of prime importance.
