The Chairman and General Manager of Régie Libanaise des Tabacs et Tombacs (Regie), Eng. Nassif Seklaoui, sent a letter of thanks and appreciation to artist Hassan Thabet, who dedicated his song “Reehet El Jnoub” (The Scent of the South) to farmers in South Lebanon and the people of Regie, in a heartfelt artistic gesture reflecting a deep sense of belonging to the land and loyalty to the South and its people.
In his letter, Seklaoui praised Hassan Thabet as a prominent artistic and cultural figure in the Arab world, expressing his affection and appreciation for this initiative, which embodies a profound sense of pride in the land, identity, and roots.
The song holds special significance for Regie, which shares longstanding historical ties with South Lebanon and its people, particularly tobacco farmers.
These ties extend beyond agricultural and economic relations to encompass deep human and social bonds.
