The folding of MK Zoabi today (Sunday) was accompanied by promises to promote funds that were previously promised to the Arab authorities as part of the five-year plan and got stuck in the tangle of Israeli bureaucracy.
In a meeting with the heads of the Arab authorities, although no issues related to the Temple Mount or the flag parade were mentioned, the heads of the authorities and Zoabi asked them to listen to their problems and troubles and work to solve them.
The heads of the authorities and Zoabi asked that ministers come to visit their cities, claiming that ministers do not answer their phones, do not meet them and do not come to visit their cities and do not mention them on Facebook.
Lapid promised that as agreed with Mansour Abbas there would be a contact from the Arab sector who would take care of their problems.

Zoabi will not serve as Israel's consul in Shanghai.
It is estimated that her family members also found it difficult to come to terms with the move.
Zoabi does not demand another position in the meantime and plans to be "the voice of the local Arab government in the Knesset."
Earlier today, Foreign Minister Yair Lapid commented on Zoabi's stay: "We had an open, open dialogue, considering the real needs of Arab society both with it and with the heads of the authorities I thank who came and enlisted. We put this debate behind us and return to government work."
MK Rinawi Zoabi: "I came and grew up from the Arab local authorities. Now I am in the Knesset to get on well with Arab society. To say that I am aware and understand that the alternative to this government is for the next Minister of Police to be Ben Gvir, and I want to prevent this alternative. "
"Because I come to serve the local authorities and bring about achievements for the needs of Arab society, I will support the coalition. But I also want the government to be real and attentive to Arab society and its needs in health, education, housing, infrastructure."
