Achievements

"A nation cannot be built upon distinction"

Nationally, he is a secularist (liberty of belief, separation of religion from politics) and he is one of the first people who made bills of laws in order to achieve this principle.
On the Lebanese level, Salah Mattar has sought since the seventies for the modernization of the State, its total reform and democratic change and the rule of law.

He is a courageous defendant of the development and improvement of the Lebanese People, and in general, of the Human Rights and Liberties.
He insists that there should be no contradiction between Arabism & Lebanesism, the latter including the characteristics of Lebanon and its Arabic and Humanitarian missions, the former being the utmost cooperation between Lebanon and the Arab States.
