I consistently refused any offers of money for my help, emphasizing my commitment to serving the community without personal gain. On one occasion, when faced with multiple cases of delayed licenses, I invited all affected parties to the Chamber of commerce and expedited their paperwork, underscoring the importance of respect and assistance to all who sought help.<\/p><p>In response to shortages of essentials like sugar, flour, and meat, I took proactive steps to address these crises. For instance, to combat sugar smuggling, I personally intercepted a truck loaded with smuggled sugar, redirecting it to the Chamber of commerce for fair distribution among the people at regulated prices. This action, while controversial, was guided by a commitment to justice and community welfare.<\/p><p>Another time, I was approached late at night by a businessman who had been waiting hours to see me, desperate for help with a prolonged licensing issue. After reviewing his case and finding no legitimate hindrance to his permit, I issued his license on the spot. This man, grateful for the resolution, attempted to reward me financially, but I declined, suggesting instead that he donate school uniforms to needy children in a local village. This gesture not only addressed his desire to give back but also benefited the community, reinforcing the impact of kindness and social responsibility.<\/p><p>My approach to leadership and service was consistently marked by an unwavering dedication to fairness, transparency, and the well-being of all community members. Whether addressing individual needs or confronting broader crises, my actions were driven by a deep-seated belief in serving without expectation of personal gain, a principle that guided my interactions with everyone from local businessmen to the most vulnerable members of our community.<\/p><p>There are many stories like this one; one morning, as I was on my way to Tehran, I encountered a municipal officer who told me about a bakery in the lower part of the city, owned by a husband and wife, that did not have a license. Apparently, he had gone there to shut it down, but the baker and his wife had not allowed it and had cursed him out. I said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s go there.&#8221; Before we even reached the bakery, the woman, standing by the oven, started cursing as soon as she saw us; she kept on cursing for a while. The municipal officer wanted to stop her, but I let her speak her mind. Once she finished, I told her to come to the Chamber of commerce the next day with their file.<\/p><p>The next day, they came; their file had no issues, and they had been needlessly delayed for years. They were needy people; I fixed their license that day, and they left. Later, they always prayed for me; one day, they even brought a box of sweets to my house as an apology and thank you. We hosted them and after they left, I told my family not to eat those sweets; I gave them to my grandmother to take to the cemetery as charity since I had fixed their problem, and they had brought the sweets for that.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-30eb8d2 e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"30eb8d2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36757e9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"36757e9\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-75100e9 elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes ahura-dark-mode-filter-texts-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"75100e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/elementor-pro\/assets\/css\/widget-theme-elements-rtl.min.css\">\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/the-promise-is-fidelity\/\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">prevoius story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">The promise is fidelity<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__next elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/arent-you-ashamed\/\" rel=\"next\"><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__next\"><span class=\"post-navigation__next--label\">Next Story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__next--title\">Aren&#8217;t you ashamed?!<\/span><\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-next\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Next<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During my tenure as the head of the Chamber of commerce, various individuals approached me for assistance with their bureaucratic challenges, such as obtaining licenses from the municipality.
