Biography

Pierre Daher was born near to the Israel-Lebanon border into a Maronite Catholic family on July 10, 1960. He studied as a construction engineer in Beirut, but later turned to the medicine, when moved to Brussels in 1981.[4] He went to Budapest because of financial problems, where his brother, Ziad learnt. Later their younger brother, Paul also started his studies here.[5] Pierre finished higher education at Semmelweis University (SOTE) and started work for the hospital in Miskolc as a surgeon. Since 1996 he practiced as a GP in Szendrőlád. He became a Hungarian citizen in 2000. He served as head of the consulting room in Edelény since that time. He became a member of the local representative body in 2002, as a member of the Fidesz. Since 2008 he is the director of the Koch Róbert Hospital in Edelény.[6]

He ran for the parliamentary seat for Edelény in the 2010 general elections, but former Fidesz member and independent candidate, Oszkár Molnár defeated him. However Pierre Daher became Member of Parliament from county list a month later, when replaced Ildikó Pelczné Gáll, who was appointed Member of the European Parliament (replacing Pál Schmitt).[7]

When the national board of Fidesz dissolved its local organization in Edelény due to internal conflicts in May 2015, Daher did not apply to join the re-established branch after his local rival Balázs Loj was elected chairman, thus his party membership officially ceased in October 2015.[8]
