We went to Parliament. After reading the reports, I went to the Bylaws Committee. Mr. Ahmad Tavakkoli, who had been banned from leaving the country before the victory of the Revolution, needed a letter from me to the Passport Office to obtain a passport for travel to treat joint pain, which I wrote.

We went to Parliament. After reading the reports, I went to the Bylaws Committee. Mr. Ahmad Tavakkoli, who had been banned from leaving the country before the victory of the Revolution, needed a letter from me to the Passport Office to obtain a passport for travel to treat joint pain, which I wrote.

In the Bylaws Committee, there was discussion regarding the number of committees. We made a little progress. At noon, I spoke with the head of selection (gozinesh) at the Ministry of Education regarding the selection process.

In the afternoon, the parliamentary camera crew came, and after much discussion, a method was agreed upon. They left to test it, with other methods [to be tested] in subsequent stages.

Representatives of the Cinema Directors' Association came and complained about [the Ministry of] Culture and Art and the Mostazafan Foundation (Bonyad-e Mostazafan), stating that since the Revolution no proper work has been done toward the growth of domestic film production, vulgar foreign films are still common, and producers are in financial hardship. It was agreed that they would submit their proposals, and I would also help.

The Japanese ambassador came to say goodbye [and] brought a tape recorder as a gift. I did not like it, nor did I want to reject a gesture of kindness. Discussions were held regarding the Japanese company's decision on not continuing work on the petrochemical project. He said the company was suffering losses due to the war and work stoppage. Apparently, Mr. Sadat, Deputy Minister of Petroleum, is set to go to Japan to discuss this matter there.

Representatives of the Islamic Association of the United Bus Company (Sherkat-e Vahed) came and spoke of the mischief of the President's Coordination Office and [certain] people in the company, as well as incitement to call a strike.

Messrs. Mohsen Reza'i and Mohammadzadeh came with a proposal to preserve the morale of the Revolutionary Guards (Sepah-e Pasdaran) along the line of the Imam and Velayat-e Faqih [Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist], and a decision was made to implement it in the statute.

At night, we were guests of Mr. Shahidi, son-in-law of Mr. Rasouli, and discussions were held regarding organizing clergy affairs and reforming the clergy branch of the Party and the Combatant Clergy Association (Ruhaniyat-e Mobaraz)..
