C., in April 1985. In particular I should like to pay tribute to Dr. Abdel-Salam Dajani, the Executive Coordinator, who offered his professional help and experience in the organization of the Symposium, and who provided the Department with his invaluable knowledge in this field. We, in the Department of Palestine Affairs, are deeply grateful to Professor Saadeddine Ibrahim, who acted as the rapporteur of the Symposium. Prof. Ibrahim, Dr. Anis Sayegh along with Dr. Dajani joined Mr. Jamil Mattar and myself in the Ad Hoc Commitee which specified the themes of the Symposium, the steps to be taken as well as the list of the scholars, prominent figures, Governmental and Non-Governmental Organizations who participated or attended. Their contribution helped, no doubt, in the achievements of the Symposium. We also view in appreciation the organizational part played in Washington by Mrs. Malea Abdel-Rahman, the Assistant Coordinator. I need not mention the devotion showed by my colleagues in the Department and the sincere cooperation of our Washington Office staff, who were but doing their duty upon which we look proudly. Needless to say that the prominent figures who attended and participated in the work of the Symposium had enriched the academic contribution and emphasized the political aspect of this problem. Those who came all the way from New Zealand, Japan, India, Pakistan, Kenya, Austria, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Ireland, France, England, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Canada and several Arab countries, came out of their deep conviction in the just cause of the people of Palestine and as a part of their dedication to the cause of peace. To all of them I say «thank you ». Muhammad H. El-Farra Under-Secretary-General for Palestine Affairs The League of Arab States
