Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – November 27, 1989

After the prayer, I did the office work until ten in the morning. Members of the labor and social affairs committee of the parliament came and discussed the labor bill. The Guardian Council has rejected many of the articles passed by the parliament and they do not have an understanding. He is supposed to come to the Expediency Council to determine the assignment. They talked about finding a solution for the unemployed.

Commanders and personnel of the army navy came. Mr. Shamkhani [Commander of the Navy] gave a short speech and then I spoke for them in detail and told about the good results of Mr. Shamkhani's appointment as the commander of Nadaja [Army Navy].

Mr. [Gouders] Iftikhar Jahormi [Iranian representative at the Hague Tribunal] came. He is going to The Hague. He consulted and took opinions about the Hague issues and the proposed lawsuits. Dr. Habibi came. They talked about solving the problem of bakeries and proposed solutions. Mohsen came. He gave an investigation report [special inspection] about the procurement and distribution centers of goods. In the Economic Council, the financial situation of the government was reviewed and the development of the stock exchange was approved.

I went to Labafinejad hospital at night. Dr. Sajjadi examined my eyes. He commented that the recent complication was caused by the light of the filming projectors, and he found my eyes to be healthy in general and determined the grade of the glasses to be half a grade. He said that since his childhood, a small burn appeared in his right eye, which was most likely caused by looking at the sun during a solar eclipse.
