To her high Excellency, the First Lady,


Dear Madam,

We won't start our letter only to express our feelings since words and sentences are weaker than their actual meanings or they have to transcend much higher to suit your high position. Also, the matter that we will address in our letter forces us to be fast in simplifying it, and we are confident that it is in the realm of your grand interest, and among others. Since you encourage us to deal with national issues from the heart, and from a true believe that a work from the heart will reach the heart and the mind a live, passionate and ready to work.

Dearest Madam,

We in the Arab Producers Union for TV (APUTV) are launching "The White Hands Campaign, For A Media Geared Toward Women," and we are more than confident that the case we are tackling is your case, and you might have preceded us in thinking and working for cause, because it is a national and people's issue, and it is a formulation for a future that we dream scintillating into our lives, and to be full of progress and advancement.

We also believe just like your highness believes that such future can not be achieved only through a real partnership between men and women, it is not possible to achieve it and make it as our sublime objective in a society that functions with one arm and one leg, and that is our take off point, to further the progress, societies should operate with two legs and two arms as partners and with the same effectiveness. Also such partnership should be in rights and duties, and that equality should be in content and the core, and this is after all for the nation's goodness and well-being.

Dearest Madam,

We have put forth in our plans to take this campaign with a wide horizon and influence, to be a media message designed superbly in the utmost professional and scientifically manners, and we have utilized the latest technological modes in TV work productions, also in print and audio media through the production of high quality program and content, and to mobilize print and audio media to support such TV programs to fully further the campaign's influence.

In the lead of these TV programs is the "Meeting with the First Lady," program, in addition to the "Distinguished Woman" and the "Creative Cast" programs, in addition to launching the first news agency – Women News Network (W.N.N) specialized in women news in the Arab World with its website that contains a live broadcast of a special channel pertinent to the campaign, whom we think it is the biggest campaign ever launched to support Arab women.

Dear Madam,

As we put the execution mechanism of the "White Hands," campaign and its objective can be summarized initially as the equality in legislation, laws and what follows  in unjust court legal procedures against women, and to advance the social situations of women, and to develop their abilities and their economical and political status.

We know that we will be faced to great challenges, however our believe in our noble objectives, we find it is quite deserving.
