The workshop, which the great artist Magda El Roumi pledged to organize with a private company, is still in progress, on the international road linking Lebanon with Syria.
In the details, the artist, Magda El Roumi, pledged to rehabilitate the international road between Lebanon and Syria. This step came weeks after the tragic accident that killed the artist, George El Rassi.
In an interview with mtv, Magda’s business manager, Awad Al-Roumi, confirmed that work on the road is still ongoing, and the road that precedes the point of collision of the late George Al-Rassi’s car with the concrete barrier is being rehabilitated, 300 meters and then 200 meters.
Awad explained that “the initiative and funding to rehabilitate the road came from the office of Mrs. Magda Al-Roumi through a private company that took care of all the works,” and that the office would rehabilitate the road to prevent the recurrence of accidents.
He said, “This is a purely humanitarian act, and we will not visit the place in appreciation of the spirit of the late George Al-Rassi. This step is to preserve people’s lives, not trade them.”
He explained that the work was under the supervision of the municipality of Anjar, and the army only facilitated the company’s passage across the border. The municipality also asked Magda El Roumi’s office to rehabilitate some of the surrounding areas of the accident scene.
On the other hand, the Al-Rassi family thanked the artist, Magda Al-Roumi, for sponsoring the rehabilitation of “The Path of Death”.
Actress Nadine Al-Rassi dedicated a message of thanks to Magda through her pages on social networking sites, saying: “I and the Al-Rassi family a thousand greetings and thanks to our dear and dear sister Magda Al-Roumi and the Lebanese army. With your blood, my brother, the path of death has become a road of transit.”
George Al-Rassi died in the early hours of Saturday morning, August 27, after he was involved in a traffic accident on the road between Syria and Lebanon, where his car hit a roadblock on his way back from Damascus.
