For your perusal though here is Morocco presented as more sovereign than this poor and unrealistic Map of Africa, this is a Colonial Time and Divisive showing of Morocco, Africans should strive to be in an independent mindset and not retrieve and be the copy of the colonial past.

Africans can make a difference in their daily life by seeking the Unity and Progress of their peers and identifications and not pulling behind their backs references, symbols, and idols of dominant ideological past colonial times and dark age of exploitation through the division of tribes, regions, and even spiritual beliefs.

We need people who consider the Motherland of Africa as the cradle of our Renaissance and our Growth in self-respect, self-esteem, and self-gratification through sharing common beliefs in owning our proper Memories and our awareness and not being taught about divisive propaganda and manipulative thoughts.

We need to build our educational environment based on our deep and authentic history without praise or self-gratifying drives

We need to be authentic with our Past, Present, and Vision for shedding light on the Generations to come to be the new enthusiasm of the bright African minds and African Creators of their Own Freedom and Independence.

Afrique Destinée: La Zambie, Mauvais Pari Financier Oriental et Bonne Mine pour l’Occident [apres ce texte en Anglais]

Présentation:

Dans cet article, nous soulignerons les raisons du revers subi par la restructuration et le rééchelonnement de la dette extérieure de la Zambie et comment, même avec la tournure des événements et des alliances, d’autres projets tels que le projet de corridor de Liboto peuvent devenir une arme à double tranchant avec 2 côtés tranchants. et même se transformer en épée de Damoclès posée au sommet de la tête de Zambie.

L’École africaine de développement et de financement devrait utiliser le cas de la Zambie pour enseigner à nos dirigeants et à nos dirigeants comment éviter d’être attirés, attirés et finalement punis par ceux qui, depuis le début, ont cherché et voulu contrôler et faire obéir l’économie zambienne à leurs principes et concepts. de développement néolibéral importés de l’extérieur alors qu’ils finiront par exporter vers eux et à leur profit tous les atouts miniers internes et les valeurs locales.

La Zambie est une étude typique et un manuel ouvert sur la manière de tomber dans le filet de la modernisation et en même temps d’éviter de tomber dans le piège de la dette extérieure, encadrée et camouflée dans une stratégie néolibérale de mise à niveau des infrastructures à travers l’adoption des outils de financement de et fourni par les politiques de développement contrôlées par l’État occidental et leur armée de dirigeants d’entreprises qui ont transformé la Zambie en une monnaie d’échange dans la compétition internationale entre l’Ouest et l’Est.

La position de la Zambie dans le système financier international et sur le marché international des matières premières est typique de nombreux pays africains où la dette extérieure est un piège dans lequel ils tombent sans savoir où se trouve le fond et quel effet boule de neige pourrait plus tard faire en sorte que cette dette ne produise aucun rendement ou ajout. valeur pour les caisses de l’État. Un tel manque de revenus et une telle concrétisation des projets dans les délais et dans un bon rapport coût-efficacité ont rendu la situation financière de nombreux pays africains vulnérable à toutes sortes de manipulations et à l’acceptation d’un contrôle et de conditionnalités supplémentaires de la part des créanciers internationaux et de leurs liens dans d’autres secteurs économiques et commerciaux. et les entreprises.

Cet article met en lumière les efforts déployés par la Zambie pour échapper au piège de la dette qui est devenu un « Typhon », étouffant lentement tout mouvement du pays vers l’acquisition d’une infrastructure qui aidera l’économie à sortir de ses conditions d’existence enclavées et de la caractéristique d’enclave de l’économie. est encore visible. Depuis l’établissement de la domination coloniale, l’économie zambienne est largement centrée sur l’extraction de minéraux, en particulier de cuivre, de cobalt et de sous-produits associés. Les organisations financières internationales telles que la Banque Mondiale, le FMI, la Société Financière Internationale et la Banque Centrale Européenne encouragent le développement du secteur privé et l’attraction des investissements directs étrangers notamment en construisant des infrastructures logistiques adéquates et modernes qui ouvrent des horizons à travers d’autres pays pour atteindre des espaces plus éloignés et répondre à des demandes lointaines pour les biens produits localement.

Malheureusement, cela ressemble à une éruption effervescente trop optimiste et à une distribution de chiffres élevés comme taux de croissance pour les économies africaines qui ont été orchestrées par la Banque mondiale, le FMI, la SFI et la Banque centrale européenne et leurs filiales et courtisanes telles que Think Tank. , Centres de Recherche, sociétés d’investissement et financiers qui ont dressé en 2010 un tableau très rose de l’Afrique.

Leur fausse interprétation du développement idyllique de l’Afrique a directement contribué aux difficultés et aux distorsions univoques de la santé et des conditions économiques des pays africains. Ces intrigues sophistiquées ont abouti à l’endettement élevé de nombreux pays africains qui sont en fait au point de faire défaut ou de recevoir des fonds supplémentaires pour remédier à leur plongée dans de nouveaux problèmes financiers, déséquilibres économiques et troubles sociaux. De nombreux coups d’État en Afrique sont le résultat d’une telle combinaison de facteurs financiers et de spoliation économique provenant tous d’un impact extérieur.

En effet, une étude de la Banque mondiale publiée en novembre 2010 suggère que la moitié des 5 pour cent de croissance dont l’Afrique a bénéficié entre 2003 et 2008 était due à l’amélioration des infrastructures, principalement des télécommunications. Dans le même temps, le Fonds monétaire international estime que la croissance en Afrique subsaharienne sera supérieure d’un point de pourcentage à la moyenne mondiale et place huit pays africains parmi les 20 économies les plus dynamiques en 2010. L’Angola et la République du Congo, riches en pétrole, sont en tête avec des taux de croissance de plus de 9 et 12 pour cent respectivement, tous deux battant la Chine, selon les projections les plus récentes du FMI [ Source : Rapport spécial Davos : L’Afrique en hausse ].

Ces financiers de niveau mondial lançaient à gauche et à droite des chiffres trop optimistes sur le taux de croissance de ces pays qui les avaient présentés comme le nouvel eldorado du flux et du recyclage des dollars en prêts sans même considérer l’existence du paiement du service. Les pays africains endettés sont devenus faciles à pénétrer par des intérêts étrangers et des biens étrangers. Dans le même temps, les pays africains, au lieu d’investir dans leurs exportations, ont également été obligés de diversifier leur externalisation des capitaux et d’en utiliser une partie pour payer le service de la dette et financer leur propre sécurité et solvabilité.

Aujourd’hui, nous assistons à la même approche et au même discours consistant à lancer des prévisions sans même regarder les schémas historiques de changements ou les variations saisonnières du taux de croissance, du taux d’inflation et du taux de conversion des monnaies pour les économies africaines et ceci simplement pour faire référence aux facteurs et indicateurs les plus ambivalents.

Behind these sectors, you have every aspect of industrial productivity and supply chain management that is feeding all sectors from the automotive to the apparel industry and what is between the two: every single aspect of the robotic, logistic, and other directly related computerized systems of operation and production if not organizing the flow between all these sectors.

Touching upon a critical aspect of the tech industry, particularly in the United States. The U.S. government recognizes the importance of semiconductor supply chains. The CHIPS for America investments aim to strengthen these chains and enhance resilience.

The pandemic exposed vulnerabilities in the supply chain, emphasizing the need for strategic investments. The Biden administration contemplates a Huawei-caliber ban on China’s access to technology that fuels its supercomputing, data center, and AI industrialization. The sweeping export ban will include all global companies that procure US technology, software, or equipment in their semiconductors.

Tech War – US-China Proxy Tech Conflict

More US semiconductor restrictions loom for China. The United States government is expected to impose more semiconductor restrictions on China, after banning Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) from selling advanced chips used for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing work to the world’s second-largest economy.

More US semiconductor restrictions loom for China

The United States government is expected to impose more semiconductor restrictions on China, after banning Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) from selling advanced chips used for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing work to the world’s second-largest economy.

“We believe the next risky areas are autonomous driving chips from Nvidia, Intel-owned Mobileye, and Qualcomm,” the Jefferies report said. It indicated that chips used for self-driving vehicles could arguably be used for military applications.

“Worst of all, high-end CPUs from Intel and AMD [could follow],” the report said. It pointed out that high-end central processing units based on 7-nanometre or 5-nm semiconductor manufacturing processes “are key to a wide range of applications”, including cloud computing servers, 5G base stations, personal computers, and high-end military equipment.

“The worst-case scenario is for the US to subject all Chinese companies to the Direct Product Rule, which means no [semiconductor] foundries would be allowed to supply Chinese integrated circuit design firms, including Chinese foundries,” the report said.

“We are not there yet, and the US will likely evaluate the effectiveness of each incremental step before more drastic action is considered.”

The potential actions that the US could initiate reflect the urgency faced by China in safeguarding its hi-tech industries, especially its semiconductor sector. 

The latest chip restrictions follow US export controls on technologies for the production of advanced semiconductors and gas turbine engines announced last month by the Bureau of Industry and Security, an agency under the US Department of Commerce.

The US tech export controls escalated Washington’s efforts to boost America’s hi-tech advantage over China after US President Joe Biden signed into law the Chips and Science Act that earmarks nearly US$53 billion in incentives for semiconductor manufacturing on US soil.

In July, Washington intensified its push to form the so-called Chip 4 Alliance – a partnership that includes South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. 

Beijing considers that alliance as a plot by the US government to exclude China from global semiconductor supply chains.

Meanwhile, the Chinese government’s likely response to the Nvidia and AMD bans is to accelerate the adoption of local products as substitutes, according to Jefferies analysts. They also expected the affected companies, which include internet firms and communications service providers, to use multiple lower-end Nvidia graphics processing units, which are not banned, to somehow replicate the processing power of the now-restricted chips. Large semiconductor supply chain projects, including materials and manufacturing equipment facilities, are being funded with capital investments exceeding $300 million along with Smaller projects are also part of the plan to bolster the industry

Department of Commerce Announces Strategic Vision and Application Process for Semiconductor Supply Chain Projects, Nearly 400 Companies Interested in CHIPS Incentives

“Today, the U.S. Department of Commerce shared the Biden-Harris Administration’s strategic vision to strengthen the semiconductor supply chain through CHIPS for America investments. To advance this vision, the Department announced a funding opportunity and application process for large semiconductor supply chain projects and will release later in the fall a separate process for smaller projects. Large semiconductor supply chain projects include materials and manufacturing equipment facility projects with capital investments equal to or exceeding $300 million, and smaller projects are below that threshold.” 1.

The goal is to advance U.S. technology leadership by incentivizing major U.S. manufacturing equipment and materials suppliers by encouraging these suppliers to increase their presence within the United States. In parallel, the U.S. Government seeks also to attract non-U.S. suppliers of advanced equipment, materials, and subsystems to establish large-scale footprints here contributes to leadership. 1. This strategy of integration aims to create clusters for Each CHIPS-funded production to be backed by an ecosystem of reliable suppliers. Such clustering within the United States will also stimulate innovation, economic growth, and job creation while allowing the United States to acquire and build robust support for these fab clusters, the U.S. aims to maintain its competitive edge in the global tech landscape1.

On Monday, August 5, 2024, U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo convened a roundtable discussion with investors to discuss non-market actions from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) that threaten to distort the market for mature node (or “legacy”) semiconductors. Secretary Raimondo emphasized her concern that over the past few years, the U.S. has seen signs of concerning practices from the PRC to overproduce legacy chips and prevent U.S. companies, and those in like-minded countries, from competing on a level playing field. The Secretary underscored that securing the semiconductor supply chain is an economic and national security priority and reiterated the actions that the Department of Commerce—and the whole federal government—are taking. Those actions include imposing targeted tariffs on semiconductors imported from the PRC, an industrial base survey of the U.S. semiconductor supply chain, joint efforts with international partners, and restrictions on the use of PRC semiconductors in U.S. government procurement. Investors discussed how companies are thinking about oversupply and overconcentration risk, and how additional U.S. government actions could most effectively support resilient semiconductor supply chains.

The collaboration between government, industry, and research institutions is pivotal for sustained growth and technological advancement. This extends beyond semiconductors to impact various sectors, from automotive to apparel, and everything in between. 2 3.

The US currently leads in the global semiconductor industry, but China is making progress and the competition is impacting the world economy. The US dominates the value chain by 39%, while China controls 7% of the global chip market.

However, China is building more semiconductor plants than any other country and is working on domestic alternatives to advanced silicon.

It’s a strange feeling when once untouchable giants show vulnerability— like realizing your parents are human. Google’s dominance in search is under pressure. 6 years ago, it commanded nearly 60% of the U.S. search ad market, but now its hold has slipped to 50%.

Now, the usual suspects here are your AI-powered chatbots, which are—according to every breathless headline—coming to eat Google’s lunch. But the truth is that this shift has been brewing for a while.

Consumers no longer start their search journey exclusively on Google; platforms like Amazon, Instagram, and TikTok are chipping away at its dominance. Amazon’s search ad share, for example, has steadily risen and now controls over 22% of the market. Gen Z, meanwhile, is increasingly bypassing Google altogether, turning to social media for localized searches – TikTok sees billions of searches daily.

AI answer engines are the latest flashy threat, turning search into an interactive chatbot experience. But while this captures headlines, it’s largely a Ux evolution, not a revolution. Google has the scale and resources to adopt these changes quickly. The real battleground lies in search integrated into platforms that provide a kind of utility Google can’t touch: commerce and social discovery.

I’m no Google apologist but I do think the company could be quoting Mark Twain because the reports of its death seem greatly exaggerated. The intensifying competitive pressure could be a good wake-up call for a company that has let its dominance dull its hunger. The comparison to Blockbuster and Kodak is understandable but pre-mature. Google isn’t doubling down on an outdated technology that isn’t working, they know where the world is headed and they’re moving in that direction – now if they could change the culture a little by just moving faster.

Google a conclu mercredi un accord inédit aux États-Unis avec les législateurs californiens pour financer les rédactions de l’État et mettre fin à un projet de loi qui aurait forcé les géants de la technologie à payer pour le droit de distribuer du contenu d’information. Mais l’accord a immédiatement été vivement critiqué par les syndicats de journalistes, qui ont qualifié l’accord de « désastreux ».

Le plan prévoit un engagement de 250 millions de dollars sur cinq ans de la part de Google et de l’État, dont une majorité financerait les rédactions californiennes, et lancerait un « accélérateur » d’intelligence artificielle conçu pour soutenir le travail des journalistes.

Dans le cadre du partenariat proposé, Google contribuera jusqu’à 15 millions de dollars à un fonds de journalisme la première année, tandis que l’État de Californie investira 30 millions de dollars. Au cours des quatre années suivantes, la contribution de la Californie tombera à 10 millions de dollars par an, tandis que celle de Google contribuera au moins 20 millions de dollars au fonds et aux programmes de journalisme existants.

L’accord met fin à un projet de loi très médiatisé, baptisé California Journalism Preservation Act, qui aurait forcé les entreprises technologiques, dont Google (GOOGL) et Meta (META), à payer les sociétés de presse pour distribuer leur contenu en ligne. Le projet de loi, parrainé par la députée de l’État Buffy Wicks, s’inspire de lois similaires mises en œuvre en Australie et au Canada, qui fournissent des fonds aux organisations de presse locales qui ont vu leurs modèles commerciaux s’effondrer face à la montée en puissance des grandes plateformes technologiques.

« Alors que la technologie et l’innovation progressent, la Californie doit continuer à défendre le rôle vital du journalisme dans notre démocratie », a déclaré Wicks dans un communiqué annonçant l’accord avec Google. « Ce partenariat représente un engagement intersectoriel pour soutenir une presse libre et dynamique, permettant aux médias d’information locaux de tout l’État de poursuivre leur travail essentiel. Ce n’est que le début. Je reste déterminé à trouver encore plus de moyens de soutenir le journalisme dans notre État pour les années à venir. »

Le gouverneur de Californie Gavin Newsom, qui n’a pas donné son avis public sur le projet de loi, a également salué l’accord, le qualifiant de « percée pour assurer la survie des salles de presse et renforcer le journalisme local à travers la Californie – en tirant parti des ressources substantielles de l’industrie technologique sans imposer de nouvelles taxes aux Californiens ».

Les éditeurs de presse ont connu de grandes difficultés ces dernières années, supprimant des milliers d’emplois et provoquant la fermeture de certains médias, car les fonds publicitaires et les audiences se sont rapidement détournés des publications traditionnelles.

Ironiquement, l’accord annoncé mercredi a également défendu un « accélérateur national d’innovation en IA », ajoutant un financement pour le développement de l’intelligence artificielle, qui, selon certains groupes de journalistes, représente un danger pour l’avenir de leur industrie et menace d’attiser davantage la méfiance envers les reportages d’actualité.

L’accord a été soutenu par la California News Publishers Association, qui représente des centaines de médias d’information, la société mère de Google et OpenAI. Mais il a été vivement critiqué par les syndicats représentant les journalistes de l’État, qui avaient soutenu le projet de loi de Wicks visant à financer les salles de presse mais n’étaient pas impliqués dans l’accord.

« L’avenir du journalisme ne devrait pas être décidé par des accords en coulisses », ont déclaré la Media Guild of the West, la NewsGuild-CWA et d’autres dans une déclaration commune. « La législature s’est lancée dans un effort pour réglementer les monopoles et a échoué lamentablement. Nous nous demandons maintenant si l’État a fait plus de mal que de bien. Les journalistes et les professionnels de l’information de Californie S’OPPOSENT à cet accord désastreux avec Google et condamnent les dirigeants de l’information qui y ont consenti en notre nom. »

L’accord a également été critiqué par d’autres démocrates de la législature californienne, notamment le sénateur de l’État Steve Glazer, qui avait proposé son propre projet de loi visant à accorder des crédits d’impôt aux médias employant des journalistes à temps plein.

« Malgré les bonnes intentions des parties concernées, cette proposition ne fournit pas suffisamment de ressources pour sortir la collecte d’informations indépendante en Californie de sa spirale mortelle », a déclaré Glazer mercredi lors d’une conférence de presse. « L’offre de Google est inadéquate et loin d’égaler l’accord de règlement conclu au Canada en matière de soutien aux reportages d’actualité locale sur le terrain. »

Le président pro tempore du Sénat de l’État de Californie, Mike McGuire, a également critiqué l’accord : « Les salles de rédaction ont été vidées de leur substance dans tout cet État tandis que les plateformes technologiques ont enregistré des bénéfices de plusieurs milliards de dollars. Nous craignons que cette proposition ne finance pas suffisamment les salles de presse.

L’accord intervient quelques mois après que Google a décidé de bloquer le contenu des actualités en Californie en raison de la loi proposée par Wicks, déclenchant une réaction rapide des médias de l’État.

La News/Media Alliance, qui représente les journaux et les publications en ligne américains, a déclaré avoir envoyé des lettres au ministère de la Justice, à la Federal Trade Commission et au procureur général de Californie pour demander une enquête afin de déterminer si Google avait enfreint des lois en limitant l’accès aux médias.

Google avait déjà menacé de prendre des mesures similaires au Canada avant l’adoption de la nouvelle loi du pays exigeant que les plateformes numériques rémunèrent les éditeurs de presse pour leur travail, mais a finalement fait marche arrière. En vertu de la loi canadienne sur les actualités en ligne, Google versera 74 millions de dollars par an dans un fonds qui sera distribué aux éditeurs.

« Google est la plus grande source de trafic de référence sur Internet. Lorsque vous faites du journalisme sur Internet, vous devez faire des affaires avec Google », a déclaré le président de la Media Guild of the West, Matt Pearce, après l’annonce de mercredi. « Le principe de ces projets de loi est que si nous devons être dominés par un monopole dont nous ne pouvons échapper au produit, sauf au prix d’un coût énorme pour notre propre entreprise, ce monopole doit payer sa juste part pour notre journalisme. »

A federal judge has sided with the Justice Department in its antitrust decision against Google, ruling that the search giant “is a monopolist” and acted illegally to maintain its dominance. The government successfully argued that Google performs roughly 90% of the world’s searches and that its multibillion-dollar payments to Apple and Mozilla — which make Google the default on device browsers — help it suppress competition. The ruling is the first major internet-era decision challenging Big Tech’s power, The New York Times notes, with antitrust cases against Apple, Amazon, and Meta still to come.

The decision from Judge Amit P. Mehta of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia is a major defeat for Google that could alter the way it does business and even change the structure of the internet as we know it, should the decision stand.  The CEOs of Google and Microsoft are also of Indian Origin as is the Judge, is this a coincidence or the application of there is no better remedy or/and remover than its branch?

Google a un monopole illégal sur la recherche, et le juge statue. Voici la suite

Indeed, the recent antitrust ruling against Google is a significant development. A federal judge found that Google illegally monopolized the online search and advertising markets over the past decade. The ruling highlights Google’s dominant position, particularly its control of approximately 90% of the internet search market. The company’s partnerships with Apple, handset makers, and mobile carriers contributed to this dominance. Additionally, Google’s actions disadvantaged Microsoft in the market for ads displayed alongside search results.

The convergence of Indian-origin CEOs and the judge’s ruling against Google is indeed intriguing. While it might seem coincidental, it’s essential to recognize that the tech industry is a global landscape with diverse talent and perspectives. The judge’s decision is based on legal analysis, and the CEOs’ backgrounds are a testament to the industry’s inclusivity. Whether it’s coincidence or a reflection of shared expertise, it highlights the interconnectedness of innovation and legal oversight.

Google Can lose track of its Database and Become Dismantle Like ATT or if Google Gets “A Little Help from my Friend” to be like Microsoft and at this moment, Microsoft will Put the New Brand “Bingo” on Bing and Try to Fly over New Clouds Already Covering Google and with the Help CoPilot at the Help of the New Tech of Stealing Works of Other as Microsoft did with Apple and other Precedent Innovators, it is going to Land on New Artificially Intelligent Lands or to Collaborate with the Indian and Chinese Flyers.   This is a Break Time for the Tech to get Smarter or the Mind to Become Artificially Intelligent. 

Our imaginative scenario, it’s an interesting twist!  While we can’t predict the future, the tech landscape is constantly evolving. Companies like Microsoft and Google continue to innovate, and collaboration across borders is indeed shaping the future of technology.

The Tech in the USA is sustained by the United States Government directly and the Semiconductor fields of Research and Development and production are fueled by the Dollars from the U.S. Administration of Commerce and so on.   Without this fresh investment, the semiconductor and even the telecom industry, especially the cell phone and related communication sectors, will not be able to define its security, path of innovation, and market share not only in the United States but elsewhere.  

It is time for Google to transform this $30 Billion distributed to keep itself high, it a massive payday for to get high, as the song of the Beatles reason to be, “I get by with little help of my friends.”   Why not Google forget this addiction to supremacy in data overdose and monopolistic management and invest more in productive ways to protect and consolidate the entire industry that Google is sitting on, which is the entire ecosystem in the U.S. and at the first seat where Google is jumping, the supply of +

In the end, the U.S. government has decided that the path followed is not conducive to innovation or the creation of opportunities for other companies seeking to enter or to expand in the same tech fields and domains occupied and driven by Google that has been considered as managing a monopolistic control given the “investment” the $30 billion distributed to keep itself flying above the waves of competition. 

On the other side, the real investments that are made by these multi-bullion tech companies are financial tools and instruments that if they have a character of being socially driven can benefit from many advantages and facilities.   On the other hand, these investments presented as made in education or campuses are only self-served business rotation of capital, like a producer of fertilizer telling us he is going to invest in better seeds to feed the rest of the world.   

The world is still waiting for that to happen and stays Hungry for more than just food, at first Peace and Security with Health and Education.

This article is blatant proof that some managers working to promote Morocco, such as within the Morocco Now Campaign at the international level trying to present its existing potential, skills, and opportunities for the sake of attracting foreign companies, foreign investors, and foreign academic or social institutions. Morocco spends millions to build an image of excellence in attractivity and attractiveness hoping such foreign capital will help reduce unemployment, increase job creation, transfer know-how, and raise the standard of living of citizens.

Imagine then that all its laudable efforts do not take the expected direction nor are carried by competent officials and seasoned and experienced professionals in corresponding areas of Marketing, brand definition, and the strategic enhancement of Morocco’s position on the international scene.

---

The expectations of the Moroccan State are legitimate given that the expenses that are made at the international level are heavy in sum and impact the returns received by Morocco.  Payments paid by Morocco for the services of foreign companies of Public Relations, International Marketing, and Consulting Firms are made with rates applied on the spot and in addition, are made in the national currency of the country where these companies offer their services. A direct impact on the balance of payments and the convertibility rate of the Dirham may result from these payment transfers.

Considering all these issues, the imperatives and the challenges facing Morocco at the global level are first the multiple repercussions at the intangible and material level. Building the foundations of economic development and growth in the liberal sense seeks foreign participation as the conduit toward integration in the global marketplace and to the network of foreign financial institutions. Within such a frame, it is quite normal to have top-level decision-makers for such international communication and PR about Morocco. They have to be up to the task and know the international terrain that will enable them to sail the vessel Made in Morocco and Morocco Now as Innovative and efficient Leaders on board, knowing effectively the direction and the objective – the destination of all these maneuvers to make this Moroccan vessel arrive safely and to make it a proof of the prowess and the skill and the potentialities that can challenge its competitors as well as organizations of all kinds potentially interested in Morocco as a commercial partner, as a production or investment location or as a destination to visit and to know at the cultural and social levels.

This campaign conducted at Dubai   Morocco Expo 2020 Dubai and the film promoting the launch of  Morocco Now both in Dubai and New York needs to convey the considerations, unfortunately, they did not and I am not the only one to underline it or to take note of it.  

The group presenting this promotion campaign in Morocco in Dubai and Morocco when asked about the impact of these two special promotions and especially how the choice of New York was made, their responses and reactions led through a bombardment by their friends of the media sites by judicious attempts in camouflage in a sheet of prestige and national pride by highlighting and questioning the meaning of patriotism and nationalism to those who dare to ask them such questions. ★

★These friends have coincidentally designated Times Square by the name of Time Square, showing their aptitudes for copying themselves and between themselves and demonstrating their glaring lack of knowledge of the field and New York as a Marketplace.

This article takes a look at such actions and reveals the ineptitude and incompetence of some of our managers, so-called Professionals.  

These officials who, once unmasked / and try to question our nationalism and our patriotism, wall themselves in their inability to understand our interrogations and our questions, and given their weakness they opted for the ultimate maneuvers that confirm their skipping, evading the core of their professional responsibilities by exiting through by the door from behind, the Emergency exit. They could not face the reality of the incoherence and incompetent actions.

I let you follow the course and the trajectory of such behavior of a Director of Communication and PR Mrs. Sahar Tlemsani Maghraoui who abruptly canceled her account on LinkedIn when she or one of her superiors realized that their practices have flaws and gaps and that they could not overcome by bogus explanations as they and she faced the common people in Morocco.

Their manipulation was faced with the competence wall of my questions and my interrogations which have only one goal, it is to return to the Moroccan what belongs to Morocco.

Dr Said GUEMRA 2nd degree connection 2nd Expert Conseil en Management de l’Energie 4.0 1d To my knowledge, the share of renewable energies in 2020 in the Moroccan energy mix is ​​17.8%, I do not see where 37% comes from in the energy mix in 2020. The installed capacity in renewables was 31.7% of the total installed capacity excluding step. If we are talking about the electricity mix, we must say 17.8% in 2020, and not 37%.

said LEFRERE 2nd degree connection 2ndIngénieur Génie climatique -Groupe ARTELIA 3 pm You are very nice, but you should not start to salt the image of “Morocco Now” by sharing such a completely erroneous statement.
Either the rate indicated or the term “Energy Mix” should be edited. Like   2

Dr Said GUEMRA 2nd degree connection 2nd Expert Conseil en Management de l’Energie 4.0 2 pm Perfectly. it was necessary to come out with figures corresponding to reality. In this area there is the electricity mix which is 17.8%, and the energy mix (in primary energy) which is 8.2% in 2020. I do not know what mix is ​​talking about this publication which does not help this. beautiful image that we want to give: Morocco Now. ONEE’s balance sheet is public, and nothing can be hidden or inflated

Morocco Now Inflates Energy and Spends Money Without Considering Reality

Another Gaffe Full of Exaggeration and Inflating the Share of Renewable Energy in Morocco

I don’t know why, those responsible for this good initiative that is Morocco Now, make a fool of it and have a bad performance, there is a sense of wanting to sing faster than the music and to run faster than the authentic lifestyle

The worst is when we show them that the reality is quite different, they play you the card of patriotism and nationalism which becomes exhausting and stupid or they shirk and disappear completely from circulation, read this completely. article that I wrote for this purpose below and which describes this voluntary lack of professionalism and integrity on the part of Morocco Now.

Morocco Now

Vous présentez et vous tentez de mettre en relief l’infrastructure du Maroc mais vous omettez de bâtir une structure structurée de l’infrastructure:  le Chasseur Chassé

A picture is worth 1000 words

and in the case of Morocco is still confused with Monaco

Make A picture of Morocco that is worth and is an expression of 1000 and 1000 years of civilization.

The Map should be clearer.  Needs a better picture for such a promo and an international level of quality

There is harsh competition around the world just for looking good and where the first impression is the one that wins. 

In addition with all these generic and stereotyping trends, it is better not to give them the chance to expand.

At any cost do not make Morocco look in a FUZZY PICTURE LIKE THE ONE HERE with no quality presentation.

En plus, dans cette carte, on ne peut déchiffrer ni les noms des sites ni les liaisons de la logistique des transports.
