The President made the remarks during his visit to Mahak Hospital and Rehabilitation Center in Tehran.
President Schneider-Ammann said that having observed Mahak, I realized that philanthropy in Iran is a culture.
Mahak Hospital and Rehabilitation Center is a Pediatric Cancer Research and Hospital Center run by Mahak charity.
He said capacity of Iranian society to flourish is what he had found out during visit to Mahak.
\’Within less than few minutes, I did notice the capacity to ship aid to children suffering from cancer. The sign of such a capacity is that a charity organization has made itself committed to look into the issue. This can be observed pretty well that a culture, favoring philanthropy, does dominate the country and this does not concern the financial domain only.
I did not suppose to observe such a capacity during my visit. Iran moves towards progress and I can say out of my experience that there is much chance for Iran\’s progress.
He appreciated services of Mahak board of directors and board of trustees as well as members of Tehran Chamber of Commerce.
The Swiss president said that Mahak is an amazing organization and is professional and extensive activities to support the children suffering from cancer. When I saw a child laughing despite his illness, trying to make us hopeful to accompany him in fighting the disease, I was so impressed. I am thankful to you for supportive services in light of innovation. Despite economic sanctions, Mahak has continued its activities and I hope that after the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and nuclear accords, Iran-Switzerland bilateral relations will expand in all domains.
Meanwhile, a plague of honor bearing painting by Mahak children was presented to the Swiss president.

well I don't think so mahak is a specialized NGO but edhi is diversified one. And both of them work internationally There are many difference between them edhi have access to grants while Mahak only receive money from donation. What is most recommendable about mahak is that they respect privacy of the patients and won't use them as a mean to receive more donation after all its core are people who had faced the problems of the people they try to help. By the way did you knew that mahak was selected as the most transparent NGO in middle east and edhi have a Guinness record for having the largest private ambulance fleet.

Just like money laundering and concealing is in the Swiss culture!
 
All of sudden West has found new Love for Iran . Too much love is in the air these days Mashallah .But My Iranian brother keep away from these snakes as much as possible ,you have survived in the worst era you can thrive in coming years

The founder of Edhi has repeatedly said, when the people of Pakistan stop giving I will stop working for them...If you call that grants then god bless you!
 
Diplomatic statement with lot of buttering. Why in the world does Iran or any other country need a certificate from westerns? They issue statements based on their needs, nod and move ahead. They would have said the same thing to nazi's as well for an ounce of gold.

:tup:
 
Why so much butthurt here?

Has Iran bad sides? Yes like all nations. There is no reason to always bring up bad aspects and ignore the good. Iran was demonized along time. Time to move ahead.
 
Any sensible person will/should appreciate humanitarian work anywhere by anybody. God bless the people who take care of others.
