The facilities required at the beginning of marriage, providing housing and holding ceremonies and traditions that sometimes face the marriage process with obstacles were the things that the president emphasized.

The ruling society is slow, of course, it will be a matter of time.

Regarding the focus on the implementation of effective policies on the society’s marriage culture, Khazali stated: One of the important issues and emphasis of the presidency is the popularization of various movements and the participation of the society, in such a way that people’s opinions are received from the bottom up and at the top level.

The Vice President for Women and Family Affairs stated: One of the discussions we emphasize on the issue of family and youth is that youth and benefactors participate and submit their suggestions to the government. This approach has been considered until today, as the problems of the sixties were transferred by the people to the government as an issue that needs special studies. Yesterday, the issue of the sixties and the demands of the people in this regard were raised in the government board, and the president ordered that special facilities be considered for the marriages of the sixties.
He stated: This special facility, which is considered apart from public facilities, will be a good opportunity for those whose marriage time has passed.

The result of the president’s provincial trips and interaction with different sections of the people is to hear the pain and hearts of the people and the opinions of the elites. Such interactions will be presented in the form of bills by the government in the future to amend the law. One of these cases is the complaint of the youth about the long process of granting loans, which the president ordered the banks to deal with this issue within two weeks. This matter has been notified and followed up by the relevant minister.
The Vice President for Women and Family Affairs emphasized in a phone call to the radio program “Morning and Talk”: Today, people should be the eyes and ears of the government and announce which of the sub-categories are not fulfilling their duties. We are pursuing violations, if good reports are submitted, the government will also pursue. The government and the people together can reduce and remove the current obstacles.
