(IsraelNN.com) PLO representatives will try to raise $7.1 billion (4.8 billion euros) in hand-outs at an upcoming meeting of donors in Paris, according to the PLO economy minister on Saturday. The meeting will be hosted in the French capital, just days after sweeping riots connected to Arab, Muslim, and other immigrants were quelled by a massive police crackdown.

The Arab organization says the funds will be used to boost the local Arab economy and to increase the 2008 to 2010 budget.  Included in the plan will be to pay salaries and fund armed forces.

More projects included a Jenin industrial town to be constructed with German assistance and processed food and packing plants in Jericho to be built in partnership with Japan.
