Experiences of service collective work is considered to be one of the most successful experiences kind; for considering the positive effect it causes to the public. It is a large union of a group of ambitious youth who wholeheartedly work with unconditioned generosity to any financial return.
To be fair, it is a must to mention these voluntary experiences by the young which have been carried out in liberated areas in Syria where they has been taking place since the early months after liberating the Syrian cities and towns from regime held. There was a need for public events of service to be found consisting of the liberated town young themselves in order to their town’s business to proceed within a voluntary campaign that creates a kind of tendency and understanding among the town citizens who feel they are able to run their own life after the absence of the tyrant government facilities for becoming out of regime control.
These voluntary works by the young is varied and assorted including several fields such as the medical, security and service ones. After some time these campaigns win support and trust from inside Syria and some parties supporting revolution outside Syria; till they become a group of institutes and facilities working on to be professional in its field.
Particularly in service field; a group of institutes that are public facilities, started working on launching wide campaigns for cleaning including many villages and towns in Idlib southern countryside. This important step was done to meet citizens calls who wanted it to reemploy the streets and public squares by cleaning them. This shows that the Syrian people is civilized holding on tight to its cultural traditions despite all the barbaric and brutal shelling this people faces.
About this step “Abo-Qassem”, a citizen comes from Hama province and living in Idlib countryside, said: ” I am so proud and grateful whenever I see such service campaigns because we are in desperate need for it .. not only warplanes kill us, but only diseases , plagues and the apathy of some people hired in an important positions in revolution. Believe me I am not exaggerating telling you that this experience which we did not see even in the years under regime held. Every group of neighborhoods and streets was served before with few number of cleansing workers who were not enough so that we used to see piles of rubbish which often remained in the streets even after cleaning them. Today I can see a big group of young men wearing a uniform carrying out the campaign cleaning the street completely beside the car driving by them to move the dirt and a water hose to find eventually that the street is very clean, may Allah protect them”.
So they are unique and special experiences Syrians love and encourage because they recreate the collective spirit again and they spread tendency and understanding among the citizens of one town in addition to the positive impact they represent before the Syrians and not Syrians that the Syrians are a civilized people who present examples of simple works which can be the core for establishing bigger works. This enrich the idea that the Syrian people is the one worthy to role themselves away from the oppressed authority.
