Ahmadinejad: Islamic Revolution seeking to correct the globe

Tehran, Feb 24, IRNA – President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Iranians are living in the very heart of the Islamic Revolution which is duty bound to correct the whole world and materialize the ideals of humanity.

The president made the remarks on Wednesday while addressing local officials in the eastern province of South Khorasan.

He said the Islamic Revolution intends to replace all vice with good deeds.

Turning to local administrative issues, the president stressed that the general mandate for all authorities was to help speed up construction and development and said the most urgent and important issue in the province was the generation of employment.

Ahmadinejad further noted that enough jobs for all those who need employment in the province will be created mainly by establishing small-scale industries.

Ahmadinejad arrived in the city of Birjand, capital of South Khorasan province Tuesday morning.

His visit to the province takes place as part of his third round of provincial tours which initially started since his taking office as the country’s president almost five years ago.

This is Ahmadinejad’s sixth provincial visit since his re-election in June, 2009./end
