Algiers experienced a wave of jubilation recently following the successful completion of a large-scale tree planting initiative. Citizens, affectionately known as “Chenawa,” mobilized to plant an astounding five million trees in a mere 24 hours.
The accomplishment has been met with widespread praise and excitement, highlighting the community’s dedication to environmental sustainability and civic engagement. The rapid pace and sheer volume of trees planted underscore the power of collective action.
In other news, discussions continue surrounding proposed amendments to the traffic law, currently under review by the Council of the Nation. These potential changes aim to modernize traffic regulations and improve road safety across the country. Meanwhile, the capital’s police force has announced a comprehensive security plan in anticipation of the upcoming New Year celebrations, ensuring public safety and order during the festivities.
The recent national teachers’ recruitment competition has also generated considerable interest, with Hanoune, a prominent figure, advocating for broader employment opportunities and addressing concerns related to unemployment benefits.
However, not all news is celebratory. A recent bitter defeat continues to sting, with Riyad Mahrez commenting on officiating decisions related to the loss. Despite this, the spirit of hope remains strong, particularly among supporters of Boulebina, who are showing frenzied excitement for their team in the stands.
The atmosphere in Algiers is a mixture of optimism and determination as the city looks forward to the future. The tree planting initiative serves as a powerful symbol of what can be achieved when communities unite for a common cause.
