Consul <strong>Rudy El Azzi<\/strong> signed this Thursday (10) the purchase contract for the new headquarters <em>(pictured above)<\/em>, located at number 1,754 on one of the main avenues in the city of S\u00e3o Paulo. The opening date will be announced soon.<\/p>\n<p>The consulate used to operate in a space rented from the Brazil-Lebanon Chamber of Commerce, also on Avenida Paulista. The consulate expressed gratitude to the entity and donors in a note published on social media. \u201cIt is a historic moment for the Lebanese community in Brazil, which will have a more adequate space for operations,\u201d informed the consulate. The name of the donors will appear on a plaque at the new headquarters.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Lebanese colony<\/strong> in Brazil is composed of immigrants and their descendants. Lebanon is where most people of Arab origin living in the South American country come from, accounting for 27% of the total, according to a survey carried out by H2R Pesquisas Avan\u00e7adas and the former IBOPE Intelig\u00eancia at the request of the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC). In total, 6% of the Brazilian population is of Arab descent, resulting in about 11.6 million people. The Lebanese community in Brazil has been showing solidarity and helping Lebanon due to the dire economic situation the country is experiencing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-307029\">Press release<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The General Consulate of Lebanon in the capital of S\u00e3o Paulo received donations for an office from the Lebanese community in Brazil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":307029,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[106,114],"tags":[28209,28210,28211,28213,28215,28216,28219,28217,28218,28214],"class_list":{"0":"post-307033","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-foreign-affairs","8":"category-news","9":"tag-colonia-libanesa-en","10":"tag-comunidade-libanesa-no-brasil-en","11":"tag-consulado-do-libano-en","12":"tag-consulado-geral-do-libano-en","13":"tag-lebanese-colony","14":"tag-lebanese-community-in-brazil","15":"tag-lebanese-general-consulate","16":"tag-lebanon-consulate","17":"tag-lebanon-consulate-in-sao-paulo","18":"tag-rudy-el-azzy-en"},"wps_subtitle":"The General Consulate of Lebanon in the capital of S\u00e3o Paulo received donations for an office from the Lebanese community in Brazil.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/307033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=307033"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/307033\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/307029"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=307033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=307033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=307033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
