KNOWLEDGE-BASE, INTELLIGENCE INPUTS, and INFO CORNERSTONE FOR TRI CK USA READERS
In France, while I was still a student at Sciences Po in Grenoble, I formulated a project on the Development of China and I presented it as the model to be imitated and followed by all these former African colonies which were during the 1970s, shaken by the brutality and sudden oscillations of the international market and the weight of foreign debt.
In 1977, I defended China as the Model of Development for Former Colonized Countries and I have put down the precipice and almost kick-out of the Sciences Politiques of Grenoble I had to fight hard to continue my studies against as we say in French “contre vents et marées de “mesquinerie” and sabotage including racist attacks ” to bring my lost ship to the port of knowledge and know-how.
My research like all the other previous ones was conducted through a projection and a prediction of the effects and manifestations that could be generated down the road and in the future of the countries or sectors that were the topics of my research.
My Presentation on China’s Development Focused on the Nationalist Choices Made by the Chinese Leaders
First, I relegate religion which is used as an impediment to development and I stated with example that Religion is not the cause or a contributor to the burst of violence and acts of terrorism: Religion is used as a reason for anger and revolt against the aspirations of the people to live peacefully.
None of the 3 divine religions – Hachem – God – Allah – tell you to live in misery and go kill the other to steal their life and belongings.
China developed itself because it had leaders who went to watch closely what is Capitalism in the European countries. They observe closely what is in its essence by working in industrial factories and studying closely the capitalist system in its relations to and in production, its impact on the capital-labor interactions, and in regards to the distribution of its most added among the capitalists. They also explore the relationship of the capitalist countries with their colonies, the USSR and China to ensure how is stimulate the growth of this added value.
2019 marks the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Diligent Work and Frugal Study Association’s program, which sent over 1,500 Chinese students to France over three years just after World War I.
“Lesser emphasized outside of China is that Zhou Enlai, Mao Zedong’s enigmatic yet charismatic premier, and minister of foreign affairs, played a pivotal role in the negotiations that led to the rapprochement of relations between the People’s Republic and the United States, was also a student in France. The top echelon of China’s revolutionary military was also represented in the work-study program in France. Chen Yi, one of ten of China’s famed grand marshals, and later mayor of Shanghai, was a student. So was Nie Rongzhen, also a grand marshal. Nie led the State Science and Technology Commission, and as such was instrumental in developing China’s atomic bomb. Li Fuchun became vice premier of China. After his studies in France, like many of his classmates, he went on to further studies in the Soviet Union. He negotiated for Soviet assistance. During the Great Leap Forward, after taking peasants from their farms and putting them in factories, he reversed the process as China went into famine as a result of declining agricultural production.” Source
Even the Leader of Vietnam did the same. Ghandi and Nehru from India also followed this trajectory to understand what British capitalism is. The father of the Modernization of China, Deng Xiaoping’s journey in France as a member of a student program exchange. We can continue the examples with other Leaders
It is in line with this learning and this desire to move the country forward and to direct it towards the construction of an educational framework that meets real needs and respects national conditions for deep local and regional reforms and integration as long as a new nation through a rational strategy and a national industrial model with options for socialism.

Introduction:
France for me is above all during my fifteen years and more spent within its walls, it is above a land of asylum to continue my sporting, artistic, cultural, and academic activities and for that, I remain full of gratitude to the people who helped me make this journey and cross these fields with knowledge. Of course, I experienced a lot of rejection and marginalization but that as they say was part of the territory I covered and I grew up.
If I take a look at what I have experienced, I would say France is high in my vision of this world, it is that of those who were exceptional individuals who were devoted to helping others, to the success of others, and above all a “Stranger” like I was always considered by the others of clandestine and silent France and sometimes angry and stormy by his lack of inner peace and that since the time of the Romans.

The Academic Prize I Paid for Defending China’s Development as a Model for African Economies
Published on September 4, 2015 – French & English Version
1 – CHINA – 2 – CHINA:
1 – The Price I Paid for China’s Development:
I defended the Chinese Model of Development in 1977 against a Representative and a hard RPR (Rally for the Republic – Chiraquian obedience at the time) and perhaps even a camouflaged extreme right who was a lecturer – I should say a little blackmailer of disasters – at the Institute of Political Studies of the University of Grenoble.
This pseudo-instructor tried to blackmail me so that I change my mind, ideological orientation and political direction and to say in front of all the Students that the West and the French Metropolis have all the solutions for the development of nations formerly colonized. Since I was looking for and advocating another model of development that I had identified in China, he wanted me to declare that China was not the example to follow for economic development for Third World countries.
For him, it is the European countries which were the providers of revenue and means for the development of African countries. My choice became for him a personal matter since other African Students were also part of the Seminar in which I anticipated the results of my research project.
My presentation was centered on the logic of forced underdevelopment on our economies and how to break the shackles of Neo-Colonialism and the subjection of our national decisions and strategies to the good wishes and vagaries of the international situation and market supporters. international financial, commercial, and even martial.
I refused and I lost a year but not my vision of the world which turned out to be correct over time.
This “poor guy”, did not appreciate my research work and my presentation in front of all the other Students of the Economics and Finance section at the Institute of Political Studies of Grenoble. It was the last year to obtain the Diploma of the Institute. He completely sacked me, but the Good Lord repaid him for his abuse.
China also became a new State on bases that were effectively supported by Deng Xiaoping (August 22, 1904 – February 19, 1997) whose photo is the one introducing this draft.
I had effectively demonstrated that the Modernization put in place by this seasoned politician, Deng Xiaoping, was bringing about change. I maintained that the corresponding changes would therefore upset the chessboard and the game of the internationalization of capital and the consequent international division of labour. The modification of these two vectors of foreign investment in third countries will no longer be made according to their own operating and exploitation conditions, but China, taking the examples of Taiwan, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore, was going to find a way other than that followed by those countries that had been dubbed the “New Industrial Countries and the Dragons of Asia.”
China was seeking to distance itself from such a product assembly model and to integrate its innovative technology into its industrial fabric, with a high added value per product and operation in each industrial unit. This approach subsequently effectively promoted China’s technological momentum while allowing it to find a place among the economic powers of Asia and the world.
Despite this moron and the obstacle he tried to put in my path of reflection and reference for national development, I continued my journey until I was invited by the Government of China to train their Business Leaders here in Oakland (California) and in China itself and where his photos were taken. Likewise, in the meantime, I had even defended a doctoral thesis at the Sorbonne University on the same subject of economic development and integration into the world market by creating a new theory on Subcapitalism.
In celebration of my Triumph over this gratuitous adversity and over the disdain almost tinged with racism and the Academic Smallness of this master of ideological disaster and Pseudo-Right in Grenoble, and what time much later confirmed my choices and my analyses on national economic development, I offer you this article on China and the display of its forces based on the exploitation of its resources for an authentic need for national development and international affirmation at all levels.
Sciences Po Grenoble in 1977-78: Right-Wing Extremist Fortress and False Progressives
★ Strategic Catalyst Driving USA-Africa and Morocco Investment, Trade, and Business Development ★ Policy Adviser in International Affairs ★ Accomplished Public Speaker ★ Distinguished News Editor ★1y Edited
China – Africa 1977: New Model of Development at Sciences Po Grenoble Two Masters of Two Disastrous Conferences at Sciences Po Grenoble A Revengeful Neocolonial Avowed Second Camouflaged from the Left “Progressive” Two Jealous and Repressed of the Knowledge of the Other Maghrebian who has become “Independent” Both came to class smelling of the Wounds of Evil with Advanced Alcoholic Inebriation. One a massacrer of true thinkers coming from another culture, this is his story which is mine and the link of my destiny at Sciences Po Grenoble :
The second Camouflaged from the Left but also A second from the Extreme Right: – Diploma Thesis: State Intervention in Industry: The Case Study of the Textile Industry in Morocco. Sciences Po Grenoble Graduates Eco-Fi Section A Rejected person knowing little about Morocco, landed at Sciences Po Grenoble , rejected from the Sciences Eco Faculty since de Bernis preferred Christian Palloix. Jean Rosio could not find anything better than to join forces with a silent woman who sailed with the wind: Danielle Demoustier. This was during the period when all North Africans were not welcome at Sciences Po Grenoble, especially those who stood up to these evasive left-wing thinkers while their portfolios leaned towards the extreme right.
These two Zombies/Lecturers had fear on their heels from where they got their money, afraid that people would take their distorted ideas and show them that they were usurping their places given the lack of innovation of their knowledge and given that they were stingy in grades and that no Maghreb Revolutionary/s left with superior grades and high honors from this institution of Sciences Po Grenoble , they were the ghost guardians of privileges of the right absent but active through them. I now understand why most foreigners at that time and Moghrebi continued their studies at the Eco Sciences Faculty, the next door where the French True Left resides. For them, it was necessary to get drunk with them to please these lost soul teachers, an active minority of right-wing extremists and “ideological mess thinkers” taking themselves for activists on the barricades, competing with L ‘ PARIS INSTITUTE OF POLITICAL STUDIES – SCIENCES PO as they did not have the necessary juice, they used “left” subterfuges to assert themselves as the continuators of May 68 and the protests of the students and the working class. As I did not consume alcohol, I was always on the sidelines more to the left as a Muslim of their game and their scheme and I was not the only one in this case Dr. Said El Mansour Cherkaoui
For the first killer of true thinkers from another culture, here is his story which is mine that I present to you in this link of my destiny at Sciences Po Grenoble :
Prize for the Defense of the Chinese Development Model at SciencesPo de Grenoble March 5, 2023 Said El Mansour Cherkaoui https://lnkd.in/gMusUuun
The second Camouflaged as Left but also A second from the Far Right:
Sciences Po Grenoble Second Cycle Diploma Eco-Fi Section – Diploma Thesis: State Intervention in Industry: The Case Study of the Textile Industry in Morocco.
As Supervisor: a Rejected who did not know Morocco and who landed at SciencesPo since Gérard Destanne de Bernis had rejected him from the Fac Sciences Eco since Destanne preferred a more gifted person in the person of Christian Palloix.
This rejected named Jean Rosio could not find better than to ally himself with a silent one who went with the wind: Danielle Demoustier.
It was during the period when all Maghrebins were not welcome at SciencesPo Grenoble, especially those who stood up to these elusive left-wing thinkers while their portfolios leaned towards the far right. They were afraid that their deformed ideas or their usurped places would be taken and therefore were so stingy in grades that no Revolutionary North African came out with superior grades and high mentions.
You had to get drunk to please them as I didn’t drink alcohol, I was always on the left side of their game and their scheme and I wasn’t the only one in this case.
My Generation of Students in France was a Generation that knew the Europeans and the French of Morocco very closely, we lived together in Morocco, shared the same emotions, and we rubbed against the same winds and the same tides and waves of the Atlantic than those of common existence. We were neighbors in everything, in the neighborhood, in schools, high schools and parties and dance balls. We practiced the same sports, Tennis, Fencing, Handball, Volleyball, Basketball and even the everyday sports of System D.
Our teachers and our schoolmasters were our models of success, they were our daily mentors and we were full of gratitude and good feelings towards them in the same way as those we nourished towards our compatriots. Judaic Amazighs.
I had the opportunity to grow up and be taught by a class of Europeans born in Morocco in Doukkala who practiced the same popular language with the accent of our Doukkala and could not be differentiated from my uncles from the countryside or of the city of Mazagan – Mriziga – El Jadida and that by Victor Puglisi, Antoine “Nounou” Oulad Baggio, Maurice Ratel, Alain [Allal] Goirin, Carpozen, Dr. Paoletti, Laporte, Perrault, Marco, Ardouin, Petersen, Vidal, Rizzo, Jacquetty, Adigard des Gautries, Gonzalez, Lepine, Tachx, Gicquel, Clegnac, Perez, Salinas, Gimenez, Martinez, Borgia, Laplante, Tibaudet, Marais, Philippe, Riviere, Dr. Ingarao, Dr. Verdier, Manetti,
Defending Africa or Defending an Industrial Development Model in Morocco by taking the example of Great Britain, is to have on our backs the revengeful and the slaughterers Conference / Arena Masters where we were Gladiators fighting for our intellectual survival and our academic rescue. These bludgeoners of novelty and the projection of ideas in the space of reflection and prospection did not want to admit the limit of their own existences as a claimant to the possession of knowledge and could not have the human courage and the individual honesty for and to recognize their dark ignorances.
This drowning in the absolute of ignorance was conveyed by their search to have the upper hand in order to possess this mental comfort of having North African Students still engulfed in the notion of the “Béni Oui Oui” and the followers of the model of neo-colonial metropolitan modernization that feeds their bellies and fills their wallets and does not accept any alternatives or proposals other than those on which they build their pseudo-knowledge and the basis of their knowledge on the repression of new ideas that are binding and competing their decline by novelty and creativity that time and fate could only confirm.
Inside the building of the Institut d’Etudes Politiques SciencesPo de Grenbole, walking along the corridor starting from the entrance facing the Diderot university restaurant of the CROUS and at the back on the right just before the rear exit which leads to the car park and the University Library, on the right were the rooms for the practical work and in one of these rooms the outrage happened to make me repeat the year just for having dared to present and defend the conclusion of my research which is to say that it is China which is and would be the example of economic development that African countries and the rest of the Third World countries should embrace and adopt for their own economic take-off and to adapt Chinese strategies aimed at poverty reduction and stimulation of social progress and this through an orientation of constructive and developmental socialism and this was by no means the first or the last time that I suffered the wrath of the teachers “backward,fascists and racists” who wore progressive and left-wing thinkers just to occupy lucrative positions and not out of ideological or humanist conviction.
It was necessary to overcome these obstacles to reach the higher level of the DEA to finally find and rub shoulders with the true masters of thought and application of socio-human principles such as my research directors and appointed Professors who facilitated the intellectual development, the success of their disciples and their students: Ian Dessau, Yves Barel, Debernis, Freyssinet, Judee, Palloix and others whose ethical spirit and integrity worthy of all and eternal recognition and praise I salute.
The Turn of Wheel of Chinese Destiny as Response to the French Antagonistic against Said El Mansour Cherkaoui
Destiny of Goodness will always be the driving force of the Good Minds and Good Actions in this existence.
My suffering in 1977 and 1978, years later, were rewarded first in 1994 and second in 2003 and 2004 by an invitation by the Government of China to provide consulting and advisory services to the dignitairies, officiels, leaders and business people of State of Yunnan, City of Beijing, including the Vice-Mayor Mr. Liu, the City of Shanghai and the State of Dalian and the State of Guiyang.
In the United States in the mid-1990s, for Chinese dignitaries, executives and officials, I organized their commercial and business visits to the San Francisco Bay Area and provided them with consulting services and training in international business development.
Meanwhile, twenty years ago, a British organization and publisher in London asked me to conduct research on telecommunications and technological development in China.
Said E. Cherkaoui Research on China Technology and Mobile Communication Published in London, Great Britain – August 2001
In this research work, I have highlighted the direct and ambivalent relationship of the pivotal role of the Chinese state in the direct development of technology in China.
Mao Tse Tung: You are Complete Man when you Stand on this Wall
Given the way how I treated the members of the Chinese Delegation during their visits in Northern California, they insisted to have me leading the visit of the East Bay Center for International Trade Development in China. The Authorities of China were happy about my visit to China that they surprised me with an event and action I will never forget in all my life. They did not tell me anything and in early the morning, they wake me up and told me to come with them and ask me to dress warmly. They did not ask the other American Individual who was the Director of the East Bay Center for International Trade Development that I brought with me to China.
So, too many unusual cascade of new happenings are facing me here which prompt me to really think and question myself about what was going on here or taking place or where all this going to?
They rush me to a kind of Semi-Jeep – Semi-truck vehicle that we can imagine coming out directly from the ex-soviet union state members which I have seen in Eastern Germany and during the training we had with the Moroccan National and Pre-Olympic Team of Handball in Romania in the early seventies.
Normally since I arrived to China for my transportation, they used limousine or Sedan car. The sight of this kind of Jeep – SUV tank was not really giving me any other answer other that this is going to be a roll coaster ride or some kind of Safari in the East and the Middle of Asian China.
This Willys Jeep reminded me the style of the all heavy-duty metal built Willys Jeep that my father used to own following the departure of the American troops from Morocco. Beside this nice memory, during my time in China,
This Willys Jeep was almost foldable and with my Father, we have crossed many mountains and valleys around the Atlas Mountains with this unbreakable and easy to fix military square jeep.
But knowing the Chinese familiar manners, ways and means of approaches that are natural without too much protocol with hidden agenda; despite the business and consulting relationship, they remind me of the various attitudes and behaviors of the members of my own Berber / Amazigh and Native family and tribe in Morocco, which means, no question asked, you are in good hands, just take easy and go with the flow.
Africa – China: 1977 Grand Prix SciencesPo Grenoble
AFRICAFRICA
This is Africa in my analyses, publications and considerations regarding current events that I share with you and that you can consult and review and go back to my attachment to Africa still Student at SciencesPo Grenoble and having the courage and the desire to predict Africa in its own new forms of expression even if it means being directly threatened with even being expelled from this enclosure of Savoir SciencesPo in Grenoble and I was not the only one in this case, only those who were part of it escaped of the band “Beni Oui Oui” and “Oui Missiou. »
SciencesPo of Grenoble in the seventies was an institution devoid of real research content and militant political direction, it was a box for making money under the table for apprentices – teachers, with the exception of André Uzan, Dominique Valois, Pierre Rondot, and an Accounting Prof who was an expert and also of human greatness and sincere Christian belief that was also beneficial, the rest was a two-faced fabrication.
Preamble for Mr. Andre Uzan
This text was written on November 21, 2023, the day after the discovery of Mr. Andre Uzan’s account on the socio-media platform LinkedIn:
André UZAN 1st degree connection· 1st Former academic. Business creator – Managing creator of “Outilspourdiriger.fr”.
It is one of the greatest honors for me to find you here with mist in my eyes and clarity in my gratitude to you and your kind generosity that I knew up close and thanks to you I was able to continue despite all the pitfalls, the obstacles and the manipulations which have and had hindered our approach towards the acquisition of knowledge and I speak of several of my compatriots and my friends of origin like ours and this even on the part of those and those we believed to be fair, Fair Play who also claimed to be progressive and liberated left-wing thought when it was only an ideological camouflage serving their own egos and personal interests to the detriment of the rest of us who coming from horizons still splashed and tainted by several incompetences.
We wanted to learn to correct these errors of the North and these incompetences of the South, which placed us in a No man’s land zone and you were the most committed to reaching out to us when we came to see you in your office in the middle of the first floor , you were our confidant, our big brother and what’s more, the one who wished us all the best.
I’m talking about 50 years ago and time has only revealed to me the most beautiful gifts I have received in this existence. You taught us statistics and we were the first to receive the Eco-Fi diploma under your patronage and also with the support of an Accounting Professor, Dominique Valois for planning and budgeting, Pierre Rondot for the Middle East and L Islam, and a Great Gentleman who spoke to us about the 3rd Age. A Team of Prophets surrounded us and received us with the Human Respect that we grew up with and around us. Mr. Uzan, you were for us the Lighthouse in the darkness of silent and tasteless recognition and academic prejudice.
After IEP – Institute of Political Studies , I joined IREP – Institute of Economic Research and Development Planning( irep , Grenoble), U internationalization of the automobile industry, where I got my DEA which I I presented after 6 months of research and preparation and this with that of very regretted now, when we cross the world, we only encounter again our past and our memory in the sense of beatitude and gratitude of having known such unique personalities like you in our destiny. I was welcomed by Yves Barel, Ian Dessau, Pierre Judet and Jacques Freyssinet who with Debernis gave us lessons on planned development. The best part is that these thinking heads, like you, knew our past, our culture and our vision of this world through the prisms of North Africa. It was a period of the consecration of pure and honest research through scholars in the field and individuals who deserve the greatest rewards of our future and our recognition.
I can only renew my admiration and my gratitude for your work and your commitment at our side and with us during the incipient moments of knowledge and hesitant knowledge of the other, especially by those who wanted to give themselves as examples then. that we rather seek models of emancipation, identity, progress and the distribution of good for those who have the greatest need. We chose and came to Grenoble to learn the best way to pass the experience of the most educated and conscious to the masses in which we grew up and of whom we become the spokespersons and the link of their understanding of this world with the the intelligence of the other and the understanding of our fellow human beings to transmit to them a valid identity leading to the development of their resources as well as the clarification of their consciences. We were the envoys of a certain feeling and a desire to know, of knowledge to improve the living conditions of those who have not had the chance to cross horizons in the quest for knowledge.
With such a mission, we knew what we wanted to acquire and what we sought to transmit to those absent from this feast of know-how and intelligence. You were one of the niches where this knowledge and this desire to facilitate its transfer resided. On the other hand, when we faced other disruptive elements, we were accused of all the evils and all the manipulations just for the fact, that we knew better than them what we want to know and why and how we seek. precise goals in accordance with our knowledge of our own history which they wanted to teach us while we were born and having grown not only from its cradle but also that we have already compared it to others by our own progress in the consciousness of the world and through the transmission of memories of our antecedents, our ancestors and our precedents in this world.
I arrived in Grenoble not from the depths of the countryside and the depressed oases, I came to Grenoble following the footsteps and imprints of learned memory and noble conscience in thought and action.
Before coming to France following my recruitment by the Basketball Team at ASPTT Montpellier and continuing my studies at the University of Law and Economic Sciences of Montpellier, I had already undertaken a tour of the Western Europe by Auto Stop from my hometown of Mazagan – El Jadida to the north of Holland, crossing Spain from Algiers to Saint Jean de Luz and going back to Paris to reach London and Wembley where Bobby Moore received the World Cup by taking a detour to the Isle of White and heading north from Southampton and Brighton via Motorway 6 to Jacky Charleton’s Town, Manchester, staying in towns in between. Returning to France, I also crossed from Paris-Roubais without the bicycle, nor Anquetil or Guimard and Lille to pass through Antwerp (to avoid passing through Brussels where the signs existed “forbidden to dogs and Arabs” and this to reach Ultrecht in Holland, and go for a walk in Zea-land and all the main cities of Holland up to the North in Groningen. From there, I hitchhiked back to Tangier to take the train and arrive there. Casablanca to reach my birthplace at 24 Rue Jean Bart, Mazagan Morocco, with as a gift for the family, among other things, a Moulinex to make fruit juice.
Likewise, I had already been selected for the Moroccan National Basketball Team and the Pre-Olympic National Team and the Moroccan National A Team in Handball which took us on a training course in Germany and Romania for more than 2 months and this as preparation for the Qualifiers for the 1972 Munich Olympic Games – Africa Zone, the tournament of which took place in Tunis, the Capital of Tunisia.
After obtaining my Baccalaureate during the same year of 1972, I was recruited by the ASPTT of Montpellier as a starting Pivot player of the Basketball Team. At the same time, I was also the Coach of the Cadets of the ASPTT Basketball Team and Captain and Coach of the Handball Team of the Montpellier Academy. The following year I was offered a position as a player by the Munster 08 Handball Team of the Bundesligua / First Division of the German Handball Championship which I joined the following year where I had registered there. preparatory year in the Faculty of Medicine.
In this German academy in Munster, to validate foreign diplomas, the German system required validation through what was called the “Numerus Clausus:
» is a “Latin term that translates to “closed numbers”. It’s a method used to restrict the number of students who can study at a university. »
This approach required grades for courses taken at the Lycée, whereas in Morocco, the Baccalaureate system resulted in the delivery of a well-decorated diploma without any grades for either exams or courses taken during the same year. As the slowness of the educational bureaucracy at the time was at its peak and reached the heights of competence, I was obliged, in order not to lose a year, to turn back towards France by landing in Grenoble where the University was a flagship of economic thought of development and above all had a reputation for tolerance and acceptance of other cultures unparalleled in the rest of France.
Some came and told us that he smelled of alcohol and had a very red face, dark circles and eyes behind thick glasses like the bottom of Coca Cola bottles or those they had just emptied the day before, their appearance and gait dragged on the ground, and once seated it is the cloister for the entire duration of the session. This is how they drowned their sorrows for having become only those responsible for practical work could not become Associate Professors, such as Christian Paloix, Freyssinet, Dessau, Judee, Debernis knew them well and they did not blame them. not in his surroundings. As a result, this guy who revealed himself as a fierce colonialist and Extreme Right and this Jean Rosio who accused me of plagiarism while I conducted research on site in the country of my birth and at the Ministry where worked several of my acquaintances and in addition those who were members of my selections in the Moroccan National Basketball and Handball Teams and this without mentioning that the theme of the Memory that I prepared was part of my research projections that I wanted to begin at the Institute of Development Studies in Brighton, England.
This Jean Rosio, a marginal pushed and pushed towards and outside the Faculty of Economic Sciences and the IREP and the center established by DeBernis, could not integrate into any cell or research center in Grenoble. Jean Rosio was known by the African-Maghrebi Students that he was a “consistent drunkard” and they invited some to hold the bottle for him instead of being a Researcher at the level of the IREP like Christian Palloix who was more apt to place as a beacon of the development of multinationals and countries of the South under the leadership of DeBernis. Jean Rosio presented himself as a red worker but all that was really red about him was the color of Sidi Brahim and other French wines.
Most of the African-Maghrebi Students knew Jean Rosio more than well and therefore came to hide to lick his wounds and his insides and prepare his thesis which lingered more in the corridors than in the research offices in order to be able to go elsewhere. SciencesPo in Grenoble was thus a refuge for the clumsy right-wingers claiming to be left-wingers and for those left-minded who found no escape other than flirting with the Far Right since even the right in power and its compromises with the Left of Caviar and Champagne with red Roses could not trust them given their continual ideological zig-zag and reversal of position according to the color of the bottles and the sky and the bank notes changing from the French Franc where the Franchise remained in fact of account, the amount collected or deposited in the bank account.
Alain Carrignon was the greatest expression of such a slippage and academic evolution metamorphosed between activism and businessism both at the same time eaten away by ideological swings without roots purely committed or deeply cultivated and planted in becoming or improvement of the living conditions of others in Grenoble.
The common denominator of these two scourges of failures was their way of ingratiating themselves with other French students and the administration of the Grenoble Institute of Political Studies, it’s like they say jumping the wall which is the lowest, and this wall was for them us Maghrebi Muslims who do not drink wine and red from where they claim to be a facade and a collage of pseudo-political labels of salons and places of pleasure as well than private enjoyment clubs.
We Sober Maghrebians with a keen awareness of our “ Simple Past ” coupled with our Colonial Historical “ Tattooed Memory ” still refreshed by a Neo-Colonial still before us on a daily basis we were in an early situation, a temporary residence permit, dismal accommodation, minimal scholarships and conditions of acceptance by the rest of society which date from the periods of towns and serfs, we were the new peasants of all the academic and social training of a region or the clashes between the masses workers and the large rentier and capitalist bourgeoisie of Grenoble and its periphery were only controlled by the contribution of labor from North Africa and Turkey – Kurd.
As a result, the “workers” parachuted to Rhone-Poulenc in fact the vast majority were my friends at “Bled” in the town of Mazagan that even General Lyautey had nicknamed “the Moroccan Deauville.” They all claimed to be from the countryside, that they knew neither how to read nor write in order to get hired through the Buro de Blassé – Placement Office in El Jadida. Several if not all were of my acquaintance through sport, studies and frequenting the same places and the same neighborhoods of residence. A whole generation of Moroccan Mazaganais – Jdidis – were thus displaced and planted in the basements of the Rhone-Poulenc Chemical Textile Factory in Echirolles, the industrial suburb of Grenoble and place of residence of the marginalized social classes pushed to outside the central town of Isère. Echirolles where the Harkis, the Portuguese, the Spanish, the Poles and the “travelers”, Manouches and Gypsies resided.
Presentation of Echirolles The commune of Échirolles (36,932 inhabitants in 2019; 786 ha; municipal site) is located just south of Grenoble.
Échirolles would have been named after the Latin scuriolus, “a place inhabited by squirrels”, here referring to wooded hills. Another possible etymology links Échirolles to léchirolle, “place planted with sedges”, here the marshy plain of the Drac river which once covered the entire municipal territory and was then dried up. Another local etymology claims that Échirolles is derived from the Latin “ex Cularo”, “outside Grenoble”. In the 13th century, the Templars established a commandery in Échirolles; they cleared and drained the district, so that Échirolles extended well beyond the hills where it was already founded. Created as a parish in 1825 by separation from Bresson, Échirolles obtained the status of commune on December 25, 1833. In 1926, the Société Nationale de la Viscose built an artificial silk factory, completed in 1927 by a workers’ housing estate, which accelerated the urban development of the town. Count Hilaire de Chardonnet (1836-1924) invented the first artificial silk thread, made from wood pulp. In 1925, Louis Chatin and Edmond Bizot founded the Société Nationale de la Viscose (SNV) for the industrial production of viscose yarn. The first rayon thread was produced at the Échirolles factory on May 7, 1927. The factory soon hired up to 1,000 workers, half of whom were women. The working environment was so harsh that most local workers refused to work there, being replaced by immigrant workers, who soon made up 90% of the workforce. The SNV was taken over in 1951 by the French Viscose Company, in 1956 by the Industrial Company of Artificial and Synthetic Textiles, and finally, in 1971, by Rhône-Poulenc. The factory was finally closed on March 2, 1989, in memory of the Viscose Museum inaugurated in 1992 (website). Source: Ivan Sache, September 17, 202
Myself and this youth in full effervescence transformed into a chemical labor mass disembarked from our “Bled” Fortaleza Mazagao the first European city built on the coast of the Atlantic by the Europeans in this case the Portuguese and which moved to the other coast of the Atlantic to locate in the Para of the Amazon like Velha and Nova Mazagao. The relief of Fortalez Mazagao remained abandoned for a certain time given the destruction caused by the Portuguese during their evacuation which had blown up a large part of the fortified city, annihilating a large part of the first arrivals on the ramparts while the Portuguese fleet was offshore. A mistake and a betrayal of the peace evacuation agreement signed by the King of Morocco and the Captain of the Portuguese Garrison. Such a feat of arms condemned the city for quite a long time with its hurtful, disturbing and “betraying” memories.
Later, when the wounds were camouflaged by time and the need to open the maritime doors of Morocco to the invading trade of Europeans henceforth flooding Africa after the end of the slave trade and its abolition as well as the independence of the countries of North and South America. In these new conditions, the countries emerging from Europe and the United States, stimulated by British liberalism and also wanting to compete with it on its own overseas maritime bases, needed to transform their direct warlike relations and conquest through the installation of trading posts and construction of ports all along the coasts of Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Thus, Fortaleza Mazagan already present and located on European maps, the King of Morocco decided to give it a new chance and integrate it into the new circuit of commercial relations which were largely routed through Tangier, the city at the northern tip. and the nearest part of Spain and the cities under Spanish rule, Ceuta and Mellila. Thus, Fortaleza Mazagao became El Jadida, the News which, under the impetus of the presence of the consuls of the main European countries and the United States of America, was urbanized as a replica of Moroccan Deauville, a summer town with a Casino and modern buildings from the “Belle Epoque” period and most of our parents were closely or indirectly involved in international trade since Mazagan had more foreign consulates and representatives of commercial interests from the United States, United Kingdom , France, Spain and other countries, more than the capital of Morocco itself. This presence had at the same time given rise to a cultural effervescence without rival in all other Moroccan cities with the creation of the first postal service and the first post office in all of Morocco, a party hall and a municipal theater, a theater troupe, casinos. , cinemas, clubs for practicing football, basketball, handball, volleyball, sailing, rowing and water polo and swimming, fencing, judo, dance and ballet, tennis, a pétanque club, and cinema libraries, a horse racing racetrack, a car, motorcycle, bicycle racing circuit and cultural clubs and sporting activities of all individual and athletic categories. teams, including equestrian sports.
I myself was a starter in the Basketball, Handball, Football, Volleyball and Fencing teams while being a member of the Moroccan National Civilian A and Pre-Olympic Team in Handball and Selected in the Team National School and University Men’s Basketball Team, and the Men’s National A Basketball Team. This without adding that before arriving at the Grenoble Institute of Political Studies, I was already a member of the ASPTT Montpellier Baskeball Team which had recruited me from Morocco through Badredinne Hachad. At the same time, I was also Captain and coach of the University Team of the Montpellier Academy Handball Section. Subsequently, I was also recruited by the First Division Handball Team Munster O8 of the Handball Bundesliga – First Division in the German Championship.
All this sporting, social and cultural past I had realized before arriving in Montpellier first, in Munster and in Grenoble where these Pseudo-Teacher Rogues did not even know a petal of everything that I describe above as background cultural, social, economic and human in which I had formed my vision of the world and with the world and its diverse peoples.
These left-wing evaders, mistreated by their own individual excesses and deviations, remained adrift and massacred us to silence us because we know better than them and we make them understand and therefore they found no other weapon to try to Watching us that the final grade at the end of the university year was their petty and treacherous revenge.
This category of madmen I called them the Chameleons, and also the razor blade cutting left and right with sharper right ends to sacrifice all those who came from North Africa and a Muslim country. Several of my contemporaries had to abandon their studies at SciencesPo Grenoble given all the ramparts and obstacles invisible to the naked eye but disastrous and almost insurmountable for the construction of an intellectual path and the construction of an academic vision of research.
undermined by fascists invisible in broad daylight but morbid once their occult and hidden designs are shaken by concepts and beliefs stronger in the Darkness as in the clarity of thought since it conveys an irremediable movement of change for the best of Africans. I took this movement and I defended it in 1977 within the agora of Grenoble and I lost more than one year of studies, I lost a transfer to the Institute of Studies on the Development in Brighton and other peripheral advantages.

To my African Sisters and Brothers
Those who have not lived face to face with the anti-African reality to realize at their own level how it could completely ruin their lives. Hoping that my story can help them open their eyes wider While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble I describe it in previous link which will allow you to read my story which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities of another future Made In Great Britain of the time but my pride in being an African and remaining one was worth all the losses that I subsequently endured like a waterfall of magma burning everything in my path. … Read more
Despite all these losses and these low blows received, I stayed the course and I kept my African dignity very great and fully fulfilled in my thoughts and in my action and nothing can take away this reason for my being. conscience and my mind beyond all other considerations. Time rewarded me in my rectitude and my desire to remain anchored in our Mother and Sister Africa, our eternal home.
So be it, in France, while I was still a student at Sciences Po in Grenoble, I formulated a project on the Development of China and I presented it as the model to imitate and follow by all these former African colonies which were shaken during the 1970s by the brutality and sudden oscillations of the international market and the weight of external debt. In the United States, in the mid-1990s, for Chinese dignitaries, executives and officials, I organized their trade and business visits to the San Francisco Bay Area and provided them with consulting and consulting services. training on international business development.
During this time, twenty years ago, a British organization and publishing house in London asked me to conduct research on telecommunications and technological development in China.
In this research work, I highlighted the direct and ambivalent relationship of the pivotal role of the Chinese State in the direct development of technology in China.
My research, like all the others that I had conducted, was directed through a projection and prediction of the effects and manifestations that could subsequently be generated and in the future of the countries or sectors which were the subjects concerned by my research.
During this period, I worked as Director of International Affairs at Sprint Corp. and as co-chair of the international committee of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce where I had the opportunity to facilitate the visit of the vice-mayor of Beijing and a delegation of Chinese executives from Yunnan. At the same time, I taught curriculum and courses on telecommunications, digital security, and national technology development at the School of Technology at Golden Gate University in San Francisco. All these implications and interests on China and seeing that as a senior consultant with the Center for International Trade Development in Oakland and Berkeley, I was invited by the Chinese government and the provincial government of Guizhou who granted me the best of the best treatment I have ever received from any entity in this world. In fact, I am still redeveloping the same research topic on China’s technological development and intend to publish my entire work in book form. In the meantime, I offer you a glimpse of my interests in Chinese technological advances in the form of the first pages of my work published in London.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you have an interest in the corresponding topics.

The #Intel earnings report with key facts and figures:
Revenue Miss: Intel significantly missed analyst expectations for the third quarter. Revenue is expected to be $12.5 billion to $13.5 billion, lower than the estimate of $14.38 billion.
EPS Miss: The company projects a loss of 3 cents a share loss per share, compared to the expected profit of profit 30 cents.
Job Cuts and Dividend Suspension: To address these challenges, Intel is planning to cut more than 15% of its workforce (Total workforce around 110,000 people) and suspend dividend payments starting in the fourth quarter.
Competitive Landscape: Intel is struggling to keep pace with competitors like Nvidia (more than twice in sales) and AMD (more than $100 billion higher valuation). TSMC is also recognized for having industry’s best production.
Gelsinger’s Outlook and Spending Cuts: Despite these setbacks, CEO Pat Gelsinger remains confident in Intel’s long-term strategy. He believes their manufacturing will catch up to rivals (catch and pass those of rivals) and justify new plant construction.
However, Intel is reducing spending on new plants and equipment (more than 20%) with a new budget of $25 billion and $27 billion in 2024 and $20 billion and $23 billion in 2025.
Stock Performance: Intel’s stock price fell sharply (more than 17%) in after-hours trading, extending its year-to-date decline to more than 42%.
Overall, Intel is facing significant challenges in the third quarter, including lower-than-expected revenue and earnings. The company is taking steps to address these challenges, such as cutting costs and reducing capital expenditures. However, these cuts may not be enough to offset the competitive pressures that Intel is facing.
Microchips, 21st Century Black Gold and US Plan $50 Billion Investment in CHIPS
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA), Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ: AMD), and Broadcom Inc.(NASDAQ: AVGO) are some of the major players in the semiconductor industry in the US.
High Tech Competition and Geo-Political Encounter
On a diplomatic trip to Taiwan as tensions with Beijing are at their highest, U.S. Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi visited a semiconductor factory. The production of these essential components of electronic chips, on which modern computing is based, is at the heart of major #strategic issues. In retaliation for the visit of the American representative, #China has stopped its exports of natural sand (silica) to Taiwan, a mineral which happens to be an essential ingredient in the manufacture of… semiconductors.
As figures from the Comtrade database show, Taiwan is a champion in this area. In 2020, the latest year for which complete data is available, the value of its microchip exports was over $120 billion, slightly more than its gigantic neighbor China, whose shipments are estimated at $117 billion. If China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan are taken together, the value of exports from the region (nearly $400 billion in 2020) represents around half of the global total.
That year, the U.S. exported chips worth around $44 billion, three times less than Taiwan, but still enough to rank seventh in the world in a market dominated by Asia. In 1990, the United States still produced almost 40% of world demand, and Europe about as much. But the arrival on the market of South Korea, Taiwan, and then China in the 2000s, quickly changed the landscape. In 2020, the United States and Europe together accounted for only around 20% of global production.
With the global supply chain disruptions and shortages that have taken place during the pandemic, several countries have launched initiatives to restart the production of these strategic components in their territory. Before the United States, Japan and the European Union have already announced measures to relocate semiconductor manufacturing.
AFRICAN RESEARCHERS, ENGINEERS, INDUSTRY CAPTAINS, FINANCIERS, STATES… MUST GET STARTED ON THIS HIGHLY STRATEGIC AND LUCRATIVE MARKET!
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a once-in-a-generation opportunity, to secure our national security and revitalize American manufacturing and revitalize American innovation and research and development,” U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo said. “So, although we’re working with urgency, we have to get it right, and that’s why we are laying out the strategy now.”
The Commerce Department has said its goal is to encourage the production of leading-edge semiconductors and shore up the supply of chips currently in use
President Biden signed into law a historic investment that will help revitalize the U.S. domestic manufacturing economy
The strategy includes key initiatives, timelines for funding notices, recommendations for successful applications
Today, the U.S. Department of Commerce released its strategy outlining how the Department will implement $50 billion from the bipartisan CHIPS Act of 2022, signed by President Biden last month. The CHIPS for America program, housed within the Department’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), will revitalize the domestic semiconductor industry and spur innovation while creating good-paying jobs in communities across the country.
“Rebuilding America’s leadership in the semiconductor industry is a down payment on our future as a global leader,” said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo. “CHIPS for America will ensure continued US leadership in the industries that underpin our national security and economic competitiveness. Under President Biden’s leadership, we are once again making things in America, revitalizing our manufacturing industry after decades of disinvestment and making the investments we need to lead the world in technology and innovation.”
The strategy, released today [9/06/2022], outlines the initiatives, strategic goals, and guardrails guiding the CHIPS for America program.
The program’s four primary goals are:
Establish and expand domestic production of leading-edge semiconductors in the US, of which the US currently makes 0% of the world’s supply
Build a sufficient and stable supply of mature node semiconductors
Invest in R&D to ensure the next-generation semiconductor technology is developed and produced in the US.
Create tens of thousands of good-paying manufacturing jobs and more than a hundred thousand construction jobs. This effort will ensure the pipeline for these jobs expands to include people who have historically not had a chance to participate in this industry, including women, people of color, veterans, and people who live in rural areas.
The program supports three distinct initiatives:
Large-scale investments in leading-edge manufacturing: The CHIPS incentives program will target approximately three-quarters of the incentives funding, around $28 billion, to establish domestic production of leading-edge logic and memory chips that require the most sophisticated manufacturing processes available today. Those amounts may be available for grants or cooperative agreements, or to subsidize loans or loan guarantees. The Department is still assessing the impact of the newly enacted advanced manufacturing facility investment tax credit on capital expenditures, which will generate significant additional project investment from participants and will reduce the required share of CHIPS incentives funding allocated for leading-edge projects. The Department will seek proposals for the construction or expansion of manufacturing facilities to fabricate, package, assemble, and test these critical components, particularly focusing on projects that involve multiple high-cost production lines and associated supplier ecosystems.
New manufacturing capacity for mature and current-generation chips, new and specialty technologies, and semiconductor industry suppliers: The CHIPS incentives program will increase domestic production of semiconductors across a range of nodes including chips used in defense and critical commercial sectors such as automobiles, information and communications technology, and medical devices. This initiative is broad and flexible, encouraging industry participants to craft creative proposals. For this initiative, the Department expects dozens of awards with the total value expected to be at least a quarter of the available CHIPS incentives funding, or approximately $10 billion. Those amounts may be available for grants or cooperative agreements, or to subsidize loans or loan guarantees.
Initiatives to strengthen US leadership in R&D: The CHIPS R&D program will invest $11 billion in a National Semiconductor Technology Center, a National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program, up to three new Manufacturing USA Institutes, and in NIST metrology research and development programs. This constellation of programs is intended to create a dynamic new network of innovation for the semiconductor ecosystem in the United States. Executing this vision will require collaboration with academia, industry, and allied countries, and will require sustained investment over many years.
The Strategy also provides clear recommendations for potential applicants, reinforcing the Department’s commitment to advancing long-term strategic goals and identifying criteria against which applications will be evaluated. The criteria include:
Increase scale and attract private capital: The CHIPS incentives program will encourage large-scale investments that attract associated suppliers and workforce investments. In addition to committing their significant resources, potential applicants are encouraged to explore creative financing structures to tap a variety of sources of capital.
Leverage collaborations to build out semiconductor ecosystems: The CHIPS incentives program will encourage collaboration between industry stakeholders, investors, customers, designers, suppliers, and international firms. Such collaborations could include purchase commitments, partnerships that enable fabless design, or collaborations between suppliers and producers.
Secure additional financial incentives and support to build regional and local industry clusters that strengthen communities: The CHIPS incentives program requires applicants to the incentives program to secure state or local incentives. The Department expects to give preference to projects that include state and local incentive packages that maximize regional and local competitiveness, invest in the surrounding community, and prioritize broad economic gains, rather than outsize financial contributions to a single company.
Establish a secure and resilient semiconductor supply chain: The CHIPS incentives program will prioritize projects that adhere to standards and guidelines on information security, data tracking, and verification, and that collaborate on further development and adoption of such standards.
Expand the workforce pipeline to match increased domestic capacity workforce needs: The CHIPS incentives program will create good-paying jobs that benefit all Americans, including economically disadvantaged individuals and populations that may be underrepresented in the industry. The program will prioritize workforce solutions that enable employers, training providers, workforce development organizations, labor unions, and other key stakeholders to work together. The goal is to create more paid training and experiential apprenticeship programs, provide wrap-around services, prioritize creative recruitment strategies, and hire workers based on their acquired skills.
Create inclusive and broadly-shared opportunities for businesses: The CHIPS incentives program will prioritize projects that proactively work to ensure that small businesses, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and women-owned businesses, and businesses in rural areas, benefit from opportunities generated by the CHIPS programs.
Provide robust financial plans: Applicants will be required to provide detailed project-specific and company-level financial data to ensure that incentive funds are meeting the economic and national security goals of the program while protecting taxpayer dollars.
Funding documents, which will provide specific application guidance for the CHIPS for America program, will be released by early February 2023. Awards and loans will be made on a rolling basis as soon as applications can be responsibly processed, evaluated, and negotiated.
An executive summary of the strategy is available. The full strategy paper can be downloaded here. The Program’s guiding principles can be viewed on the Department’s recently launched CHIPS.gov.
By contrast, entrepreneurship is developing a new venture outside an existing organization. The traditional entrepreneur shall now act as an innovation hunter to proactively be able to set up new smart businesses; ideally from the beginning, till the end of any business life cycle. The term entrepreneur, etymologically originates from the French word entreprendre meaning “to begin something, undertake.” During medieval times, this word was used to describe an active working person.
In economic theory, it was Richard Cantillon (1759), – an Irish economist of French descent – first, who first used the term entrepreneur. According to Cantillon, the entrepreneur is a specialist in taking risks.
Risk-taking is one of the famous attributes of entrepreneurs which is also frequently emphasized in the literature. Spiritually, some people are observed to tend to behave extra-ordinarily. As Jobs addresses; “You have to trust in something—your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever—because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-known path, and that will make all the difference.” Taking the risk phenomenon and the spiritual reflections into consideration; it can easily be summed up that entrepreneurship has something to do with inner-journey.
Another emphasis on entrepreneurship is its presentation as a mindset. “Entrepreneurship is first and foremost a mindset. To seize an entrepreneurial opportunity, one needs to have a taste for independence and self-realization,” said Olli Rehn, a member of the European Commission. Understanding the entrepreneurial mindset requires a certain threshold of empathy. First of all, entrepreneurship is the story of ambiguity. An anonymous supporting quote is likely to highlight the gist of entrepreneurship. It’s as follows: “Anyone, (can be an entrepreneur) who wants to experience the deep, dark canyons of uncertainty and ambiguity; and who wants to walk the breathtaking highlands of success. But I caution, do not plan to walk the latter, until you have experienced the former.” In this regard, as Schumpeter also points out; entrepreneurs seem to have some heroic vision. Schumpeter focused on high-level entrepreneurship and larger businesses. On the other hand, Marshall examined smaller businesses, partially. It was Hayek and Kirzner, who examined the entrepreneurs as middlemen hoping to profit by buying cheap and selling expensive.
When it comes to defining entrepreneurship; it can easily be discovered that various people have defined entrepreneurship differently. Despite this fact, the most common classification follows the mainstream of Collins and Moore; who claimed two types of entrepreneurship, differentiating due to the context of entrepreneurial activities undertaken. These are, firstly, independent entrepreneurship and independent entrepreneurs (similar to entrepreneurship/traditional entrepreneurship and entrepreneurs/traditional entrepreneurs in this paper), implying the process whereby an individual or a group of individuals, acting independently of any association with an existing organization, create a new organization
Stopford and Baden-Fuller considered entrepreneurs as opportunists even in chaotic situations, and they also metaphorically approached entrepreneurship. According to them, entrepreneurs are like Olympic athletes, long-distance runners, symphony orchestra conductors, and top-gun pilots…These metaphors underline the entrepreneurs’ being ambitious, determined, self-challenging, and talent for synchronizing [12].

There are various types of entrepreneurs. We will see some of it.
Industrial Entrepreneurs: They are in the business of manufacturing products. E.g. Manufacturing of automobile parts.
Trading Entrepreneurs: They are in the business of buying & selling products or services. E.g. Traders of Houses.
Imitative Entrepreneurs: These types of businesses copy other successful businesses & run the business similarly.
Drone Entrepreneurs: These types of entrepreneurs don’t like to change their business style. They don’t involve innovation. They just want to be like how they are.
Fabian Entrepreneurs: They don’t change until it is very much needed. They adopt change when it is very necessary.
What are the various functions of Entrepreneurs?
The main function of an Entrepreneur is to take risks.
The second function is to start the enterprise.
The third function is to keep an eye on the internal & external environment.
The fourth function is to make arrangements for necessary resources.
The fifth function is to deliver products/services to customers.
Innovation
Innovation is one of the key requirements for entrepreneurship.
Innovation is nothing but new ways of doing old tasks.
Innovations can be Chemical, mechanical, managerial, technical, institutional, service, etc.
According to Joseph Schumpeter, there are five types of innovations.
Introduction of new & good quality product.
Introduction of a new method of production.
Introduction of a new market.
Use of some new sources of supply as raw material.
They are making a new organizational form of industry.
The innovation process in Entrepreneurship includes the following steps.
Research of market
Development of product/service
Marketing of product/service
Production
Use by customer
Feedback from the customer.
Innovation has emerged as a headline in the field of business management, recently. Kuratko determines the magic words to describe the innovative way of our time: Dream, create, explore, invent, pioneer, and imagine [34]. Innovation itself is changing. The etymological roots of innovation stretch to the Latin word innovare, meaning to do something new. Most of the innovation definitions have focused on similar points with different perspectives. The key common points imply change and renewal for a better situation. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), inside the Oslo Manual—the source of information regarding international technological developments— defines innovation by linking it to technological change.
According to the OECD, innovation means “completing products and services by developing them technologically. The European Union (EU) has made a broader definition. To the EU, innovation introduces the change in workforce talent, working conditions, and managerial and organizational jobs. Also, it’s about renewal and growth in product and service range. In addition to this, a well-known expression about innovation; characterizes it as the process of converting new ideas into value-creating outputs such as new products, methods, or services. With the help of innovation; companies acquire the ability to develop and apply not only new products, processes, or designs but also new operations and business models.
After having experienced enormous financial crises all over the world in recent years; company survival has emerged as the most crucial issue both for SMEs and even some large companies. SMEs, as the increasing value of the new economy, are obligatorily undertaking the mission of being innovative. It’s innovative SMEs that will lead the way to economic recovery.
This is what sets innovation-led companies apart: they have been successful in establishing organizational cultures where initiative is rewarded and failures are encouraged. They have structures, processes, and senior leadership that are supportive of innovation, and they have built an ecosystem of partners that enables these organizations to constantly bring in new ideas into their organizations.
MMP: Can any organization be innovation-led, or is it more relevant for some rather than others? Are there simple changes that can be implemented in the short term? And what about the long term?
NN: With accelerating innovation change, every organization needs to aim to become innovation-led. We all have been reading about significant changes caused by new technologies such as AI, VR (virtual reality), blockchain, and big data. These technologies will impact every type of organization. However, some researchers have argued that in highly turbulent and uncertain markets, it could be beneficial for companies to scale back on innovating until they can better understand the future directions of these markets.
In the short term, many established organizations have chosen to set up separate innovation labs. These are usually set apart from the rest of the organization so they can operate uninhibitedly. However, such labs often don’t work, as this recent commentary demonstrates.
In the long term, companies need to pursue a double strategy: developing an internal innovation capability and partnering externally – including cooperating with and even acquiring, innovative companies/start-ups. This is a strategy many leading tech companies are pursuing.
MMP: Do you have any guidance regarding the challenges creative companies face when developing innovation strategies? What can they take from tech companies and vice versa?
NN: Research on creative companies has shown that many creative companies while being quite innovative, are less business-savvy concerning turning new ideas into profitable business models. This is something that has plagued the creative industries sector for quite some time – individual creativity often drives the success of the organization, but they struggle to create a sustainable business model to scale up this creativity.
Creative companies could learn from tech companies to put more focus on the scalability of their creative ideas and how to develop financially sustainable business models. On the other hand, tech companies can learn from creative companies how to ensure that their employees remain creative and innovative, even if they are part of larger organizations with bureaucracy and managerial practices that often stifle innovation. In many ways, the stories we hear from organizations like Alphabet/Google and Apple, about the playful environments they have created for their employees and the flat hierarchies they have established, are in line with how smaller creative companies operate. Yet, Amazon, for example, has been under the spotlight, because of the stifling practices and toxic culture its employees have experienced.
The question of how to keep the creative/innovative mindset as organizations grow is critical to ensure that large organizations, whether tech or not, can continue to be innovative.

(Thanks Association for Project Management for bringing it to my attention. FYI I have no links to this project.) – British company Xlinks is planning a project in Morocco to develop a 10.5GW solar farm, a 20GWh battery storage system and a 3.6GW high‑voltage direct current interconnector to carry electricity to the UK (and a massive windfarm). – That requires four 3,800km-long cables! – The scale of the Xlinks project is overwhelming – and could provide nearly 10% of UK electricity needs (c.7 million homes). – The full £18bn proposal would take up 1,500 sq km of Moroccan desert. That’s about the size of Greater London. – From Morocco to the UK, the cables will be crossing 68 other cables and then go 15km inland to the conversion site in Devon.
So, how do you manufacture such large, lengthy cables? – XLinks have created a sister company XLCC to carry out the cable manufacturing and laying. – It will take at least three years just to get going. – North Ayrshire Council (Scotland) has granted planning permission to build the first HVDC subsea cable factory in the UK. – Assembly requires cable to run through the factory, building layers on the aluminium core, through to the outer insulation layer. But that coating takes three hours to harden, and to avoid it collecting on the underside of the cable, they have to run it vertically for that period. – So they need a tower 180m high – it will be Scotland’s tallest building! – The tower alone will take a year to build. – It will take another year to build and fit out the rest of the plant – which will end up being 800m long and 375m wide. – Then the cable needs to be tested – which means putting a section under incredible stresses of heat and cold for a year, at 180% capacity.
Wait, won’t they need a big boat too? – The biggest cable-laying vessel in the world is not big enough. – XLCC are going to need a bigger vessel capable of carrying two 13,000-ton spools. So that has to be commissioned – a three-year project on its own. – The vessel will be 200m long, 35m wide and include 110 bedrooms and a canteen.
Who’s going to join the cables? – At sea, they need to be able to join the cable, which is manufactured in 20km sections, into the 160km spools for the vessel. – That’s a skilled job, so they need 60 joiners on the team. – It takes three years to fully train and certify them. XLCC are already been working with academic institutions to recruit engineering graduates to join a programme.

The Solution is coming from under the Water.
We’re part of @xlinks_uk’s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco, unlocking more reliable, cheap and clean electrons 20 hours a day. “What’ll we do when the wind’s not blowing in the UK?” “Get sunshine from Morocco.”
The Answer my British Friend is Blowing in the Wind !!!
@xlinks_uk‘s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco.
In Britain, the tiny Devon village of 286 people is linked to MOROCCO by the world’s longest £16 billion submarine cable
The village of Alverdiscott, Devon, is the final destination of the submarine cable project £16 billion marine The village of 286 is linked to a line to Morocco. The scheme will import solar and wind power to power seven million homes by 2030
The Answer my British Friend is Blowing in the Wind !!!
Morocco, Land of Sunshine, Oranges, Eggs, Electric Charm and Camels for the Brits
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will be a new electricity generation facility entirely powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, it will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables.
This “first of a kind” project will generate 10.5GW of zero carbon electricity from the sun and wind to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 20+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes by 2030. Once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.
Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines, an onsite 20GWh/5GW battery facility will provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver each and every day, a dedicated, near-constant source of flexible and predictable clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.
When domestic renewable energy generation in the United Kingdom drops due to low winds and short periods of sun, the project will harvest the benefits of long hours of sun in Morocco alongside the consistency of its convection Trade Winds, to provide a firm but flexible source of zero-carbon electricity.
British renewable energy company Xlinks is the developer of the project which will cover an area of around 579 square miles (1,500 square kilometers) in Morocco. A 10.5 gigawatt (GW) solar and wind farm will be built in the Moroccan region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. The cables will run above ground from the Power Plant until they reach the town of Tantan, where they will run underground.
The laying of the cable will be done with the help of fishing fleets, and the planned route of the cable avoids as many conservation areas as possible. Following a shallow water route from Morocco to the UK, via Spain, Portugal and France, these cables will connect to the UK national grid in Devon.
Clean energy will thus be connected exclusively to the UK via 2,361 miles (3,800 km) and this with high voltage, direct current (HVDC) submarine cables and are used because of their ability to reduce inefficiencies when transporting energy.
This project is part of the drive to achieve a national net-zero electricity grid by 2035. Xlinks says the Morocco-UK electricity project will be able to power 7 million UK homes in by 2030, representing up to 8% of UK energy needs.
The project will cost $21.9 billion. Xlinks will build 7 GW of solar power and 3.5 GW of wind power, as well as 20 GWh/5 GW on-site battery storage, in Morocco. The transmission cable will consist of four cables. The first cable will be active in early 2027 and the other three should be launched in 2029. An agreement has been reached with the National Grid for two 1.8 GW connections at Alverdiscott in Devon.
Update April 21, 2022:
Submarine cable maker XLCC will build a factory in Hunterston, Scotland, and its first production will be for the Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project. Alverdiscott in North Devon will provide four 2,361-mile (3,800 km) submarine cables, the first phase between 2025 and 2027 linking wind and solar power generated in Morocco. This initiative will nearly double the current global production of HVDC cable manufacturing. The world’s longest submarine cables will require 90,000 metric tons of steel, and XLCC signed Britain’s Steel Charter in Parliament this week, in which it pledged to use British steel.
Why go all the way to Morocco to get electricity for the UK?
A response made on October 3, 2021, is given by a British news outlet:
At the beginning of October 2021, this project was estimated at 16 billion pounds sterling and aims to circumvent the fundamental problems of British wind and solar energy. Our winds are unpredictable and tend to blow at times of day when electricity demand is lowest. As it is for the British sun, well.
Meanwhile, in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region of Morocco, where the green power will be produced, reliable trade winds blow year-round. Equally practical, the wind speed at the Morocco site increases in the late afternoon and evening, coinciding with peak demand periods in the UK.
The sun in Morocco also shines about 3,500 hours a year. By contrast, Britain averages only 1,500 hours of sunshine per year. And because the sun burns more intensely in North Africa, the solar panels each produce about three times as much electricity there as in the UK, even in winter when British need electricity the most for heating and the light.
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power project consists of building an inordinate amount of new kits to generate and transport green energy. This means covering 1,500 km2 of Moroccan desert with solar panels, wind turbines and a huge battery storage unit. And copper or aluminum submarine cables, wrapped in polythene insulation, will carry the generated energy to Devon. Four such cables are required, each threaded along a shallow undersea route through Spain, Portugal and France to Alverdiscott.
In the village, two 1.8 GW voltage source converter stations, which look like massive Meccano skeletons, will be built. (1.8 GW is the planned generation capacity for the Norfolk Vanguard wind farm project in the North Sea, which would consist of 180 turbines up to 1,150 feet tall.)
An answer made on April 21, 2022, in a word, the Resilience that is given by the company that is responsible for this project, Xlinks .
Xlinks explains: Morocco benefits from ideal solar and wind resources, necessary to develop renewable projects that could guarantee adequate electricity production throughout the year. It has the third highest Global Horizontal Radiation (GHI) in North Africa, which is 20% higher than the Spanish GHI and more than twice that of the UK. In addition, the shortest winter day still offers more than 10 hours of sunshine. This helps deliver generation profiles that meet the needs of the UK electricity market, particularly during periods of low offshore wind generation.
Remote generation and interconnection between distant geographic regions with inversely correlated weather systems will be more effective in addressing supply and demand imbalances over longer periods of time.
Xlinks notes that solar panels generate about three times more electricity in Morocco than that produced in the UK. Additionally, solar panels in Morocco have a higher capacity to generate up to five times more electricity from January to March than those in the UK.
According to its promoters, this project should create nearly 10,000 jobs in Morocco, including 2,000 permanent jobs.

Le littoral dans le développement du Maroc et de sa politique atlantique
Merci beaucoup cher 🌎 Said Cherkaoui 🌍. Pour les entreprises de Dakhla, il faut un véritable plan de transition énergétique, et non des audits énergétiques sans lendemain. Au fait mes déplacements à Dakhla était d’imaginer le moyen d’avoir de l’hydrogène GRATUIT pour le Maroc, en concevant des grands projet WIN WIN avec de grands développeurs que j’ai rencontré à Dakhla, (un investisseur en MM$ attend l’autorisation du mat de mesures depuis un an) ! Pour une production de 50 MTH2/an, les droit de 20% pour le Maroc, plus de 10 MTH2/an va permettre de decarboner toute l’électricité marocaine. Comme c gratuit pour le Maroc, ça n’intéresse personne.
Dakhla Métropole polycentrique et Modèle de Développement au Maroc
Cet écrit trouve sa raison d’être dans l’esprit et la volonté de faire avancer et partager la réflexion et les visions concernant le développement authentique et l’intégration nationale dans une perspective de responsabilité partagée avec nos provinces sahariennes et pas seulement comme une inclusion régionaliste désintégrée.
Nos régions du sud doivent être projetées sur la vision du Maroc d’aujourd’hui comme racines du Maroc au niveau historique, comme semences pour la réalisation de la culture de l’intégrité territoriale et nationale et comme les pieds du corps marocain pour sa marche sur le chemin de la réunification finale et ses démarches pour l’aboutissement du progrès social, pour la construction de sa destination du développement économique régional et la mise en place de sa demeure structurelle de l’autosuffisance nationale couplés et renforcés par la durabilité de l’efficacité opérationnelle et la consolidation de productions locales à valeur ajoutée innovantes et hautement compétitives sur le marché international.
L’économie mondiale est passée d’une économie « juste à temps » à une économie « juste au cas où » vu les perturbations de la chaîne d’approvisionnement. Le Maroc doit de toute urgence s’adapter à cette nouvelle réalité
Le Maroc peut se targuer d’avoir des travailleurs qualifiés et des talents à moindre coût pour attirer les investisseurs étrangers et qu’ils vont participer au processus de décollage, un rêve éternel
Les incitations offertes par le Maroc et une main-d’œuvre bon marché ne sont pas des moyens valables pour atteindre un développement
Les pays occidentaux développent des produits d’intelligence artificielle et le Maroc doit encourager les entreprises locales à adopter l’automatisation ainsi que les mises à niveau technologiques
En termes de développement durable régional, le Maroc doit d’abord prendre en considération le concept ESG – Environnemental, Social, Gouvernance – comme une opportunité d’améliorer ses pratiques juridiques et commerciales
Le Maroc doit entreprendre une nouvelle définition et évaluation du développement, de la croissance et du progrès.
Une commission spéciale mandatée par le roi du Mohammed VI après le Hirak du Rif a présenté plusieurs pistes de réformes au bout d’une longue réflexion qui a associé toutes les composantes de la société marocaine. Inclusion économique, protection sociale, “enseignement efficace”, service de santé “de qualité”, “équité fiscale”, “justice efficiente et intègre”, “renforcement des libertés individuelles et publiques”, le Maroc cherche un nouveau modèle de développement, en mesure de répondre à la “crise de confiance” de la population vis-à-vis de ses institutions.
“Le changement est impératif et nécessaire”, a déclaré l’ancien ministre de l’Intérieur Chakib Benmoussa, le président de cette commission de 35 membres, en présentant le rapport le 26 mai 2021 à Rabat.
A travers la lecture de cette introduction et la narration existante dans cette vidéo, on ne trouve nulle trace de ce que Dakhla ou les autres centres urbains peuvent acquérir comme responsabilité directe dans la mise en place et la conduite ainsi que la réalisation d’une stratégie de développement multipolaire non seulement inclusive des régions mais surtout basée sur un ancrage des politiques économiques de développement ayant comme contenu et comme but:
Métropolisation Polycentrique de l’Aménagement du Territoire et Synchronisation des Rouages Régionaux Productifs pour un Développement National Homogénéisé
Le Modèle de Développement soumis au Roi du Maroc avait omis de mentionner ce que je propose ci-dessous:
Régionalisation Et Urbanisation Au Maroc: Dakhla
L’économie mondiale est passée d’une économie « juste à temps » à une économie « juste au cas où » vu les perturbations de la chaîne d’approvisionnement. Le Maroc doit de toute urgence s’adapter à cette nouvelle réalité
Le Maroc peut se targuer d’avoir des travailleurs qualifiés et des talents à moindre coût pour attirer les investisseurs étrangers alors que ces financiers – chasseurs de primes ne respectent aucune notion de frontière et leurs actions ne répondent pas non plus aux besoins d’un espace économique. Leurs objectifs sont guidés par leurs propres calculs du profit.
Le Maroc devrait modifier sa croyance “sympathique qui frôle la naïveté” que ces compagnies transnationales et ces investisseurs globaux vont participer au processus de décollage, qu’ils vont favoriser le transfert du savoir-faire et technologique non pas seulement pour le bénéfice du secteur investi et mais qu’ils allaient se transformer en un des moteurs de progrès et de croissance de l’économie marocaine. Tout cela demeure un rêve éternel et une traduction de “Waiting for Sidna Kder – Godot.”
Les incitations offertes par le Maroc accompagnées de la disponibilité d’une main-d’œuvre bon marché ne sont paslus des moyens valables pour atteindre un développement.
Si c’est le cas, on n’aurait pas ces fusillades au Mexique pour appréhender le fils de “Chapo” vu que le Programme des Maquiladoras avait été lancé et dénommé Bracero depuis 1964 et après toutes ces années, le Mexique n’est pas encore sorti du moulin du chômage et de la pauvreté et du statut d’économie subcapitaliste.
De nos jours, le Maroc doit encourager les entreprises locales, régionales et celles localisées dans les provinces sahariennes à adopter l’automatisation ainsi que les mises à niveau technologiques. En somme, prévenir vaut mieux que guérir, vu que les pays occidentaux développent des produits d’intelligence artificielle, combinant la logistique avec la robotique pour affirmer le contrôle des procédés de fabrication en termes d’ajustement sur la demande présente, prospective et potentielle. Des technologies mises en service afin d’éviter un surplus de main-d’oeuvre provoquant un bottleneck, une baisse de la productivité et une neutralisation de l’efficience opérationnelle, créant ainsi des détournements financiers qui devraient cibler l’accroissement du taux de profit et la réductions des coûts de production, surtout au niveau des coûts salariaux.
Pour ces raisons, en termes de développement durable régional, le Maroc doit d’abord prendre en considération le concept ESG – Environnemental, Social, Gouvernance – comme une opportunité d’améliorer ses pratiques juridiques et commerciales
Le Maroc doit entreprendre une nouvelle définition et réévaluation du développement, de la croissance et du progrès a travers de nouveaux prismes et de plus défiant objectifs et ne pas se contenter de prendre en compte les recommandations des organismes internationaux qui ne sont en définitive qu’une traduction des besoins de leurs respectives compagnies et leurs propres intérêts prospectant des opportunités rentables pour leurs propres projections d’investissements directs et indirects.
Le sort du décollage et le destin développementaliste du Maroc ne s’accroches pas a une seule opportunité de poses dans une photo souvenir.
Il faut dépasser de loin les apparences et les apparitions médiatiques et aller au delà des slogans de marketing qui chansonnent plus vite que la musique.
Le vrai travail de construction et de progrès se fait dans le silence et dans l’ombre de l’humilité et ses réalisations seront au grand jour ses portes-paroles et ses expressions irréfutables.
Constitution de plusieurs centres dans un territoire dépendant au départ d’un centre unique ou prépondérant. Dakhla devrait être transformée en une métropole polycentrique du Sahara Marocain doublée d’un Hub pour les dessertes entre les capitales européennes et les capitales des pays africains.
Cette approche régionale serait un conduit de l’Aménagement du territoire marocain basé sur la notion de l’Unité institutionnelle dans la Diversité régionale, économique et sociale doublée d’une complémentarité de synergie productive et opérationnelle para-nationale.
Dakhla serait donc une plaque tournante de correspondance et de transfert comme liaison aérienne et maritime ainsi que ferroviaire créant ainsi une infrastructure modale logistique intégrée avec des modales de transport et d’acheminement de personnes et de biens, consolidant ainsi les liens entre l’intégrité territoriale nationale et l’intégration territoriale du Maroc dans les flux d’échanges entre les grands centres des continents d’Europe et d’Afrique. Cette approche est fondée quasiment sur la densité : c’est le cas des indices de centralité standardisés qui peuvent être déclinés à plusieurs échelles – locale ou globale – et par secteurs d’activités (Guérois, Le Goix 2000 ; Huriot & al. 2003).
Au sein du territoire marocain , Dakhla servirait aussi de modèle pour une hiérarchisation des centres intra-métropolitainset leurs relations respectives avec les autres centres en Europe et en Afrique
L’Intégration économique, sociale, culturelle, humaine et territoriale de l’Afrique nécessite la construction d’un système urbain polycentrique et une configuration nouvelle de centres urbains comme créneau-maillon dans le système de communication, opération, production, approvisionnement et distribution établissant ainsi des complémentarités fonctionnelles. Cette synergie urbaine est projetée au niveau national et régional qui ne peut que positionner Dakhla comme un des centres intégrés dans la promotion du polycentrisme a l’échelle de la façade atlantique renforçant ainsi son rôle de liaison et de carrefour pour le prochain gazoduc reliant le Nigeria a l’Europe
C’est une telle centralité de Dakhla qui pourrait insuffler un processus d’industrialisation stimulant une spécialisation économique et un ratio emploi / population active favorable à la formation et l’attraction de main-d’oeuvre qualifiée pouvant ainsi imbriquer et harmoniser la mise en place de créneaux porteurs de croissance industrielle a travers une synergie entre les rouages économiques, financiers et culturels fonctionnant dans les autres régions du Maroc. Cette imbrication faciliterait l’établissement d’une plateforme dotée d’infrastructures interchangeables, d’unités opérationnelles, de niches complémentaires dans le sens polycentrique.
Afin d’éviter l’émergence de pôles « monocentré » et une croissance d’activités monocentriques, une cohésion régionale et interrégionale serait guidée par une motivation et une approche favorisant l’innovation, la Recherche et le Développement, la création effective d’emploi productif de préférence centrée sur l’Engineering et la génie mécanique et les secteurs industriels qui peuvent réduire la dépendance du Maroc à l’égard de l’importation d’appareils, de machines, d’outillage et d’équipement plus performant et innovateurs nécessaire aux opérations productives des usines, des industries et des productions technologiques avancées.
Le Maroc devrait ainsi posséder les capacités de définir et de façonner ainsi que produire en fonction de ses propres besoins de développement tous les équipements nécessaires à la matérialisation des étapes intermédiaires de son progrès industriel.
Une répartition synchronisée entre les aires d’influence au niveau productif et dans la promotion de la région comme un rouage indispensable dans le fonctionnement, la productivité et le renouvellement des conditions et des ressources nécessaires pouvant animer la croissance de pôles de spécialisation économique répondant aux défis nationaux, à la construction de la zone de libre-échange en Afrique et à la compétitivité internationale.
La conception finale du port atlantique de Dakhla, qui sera construit profondément dans la mer pour permettre aux grands navires d’accéder et d’accoster, et sera relié à un pont terrestre de haut niveau. L’immense port, dont le lancement a commencé sous la supervision directe de Sa Majesté le Roi Mohammed VI, sera dédié à faciliter la circulation et la navigation des marchandises, à stimuler les exportations vers l’Afrique, à encourager l’industrialisation des provinces du sud du Royaume et à apporter des capitaux et des investissements, en plus de suivre les projets lancés dans un certain nombre de villes désertiques marocaines.

As my Sister said, we inherited the active nationalist spirit of our Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who asked the Ministry of Transport and Mining Services to grant him a public transport license to open a direct line to the Sahara Moroccan by linking Casablanca Sidi Ifni / Tarfaya and the Moroccan Sahara and that during the forties and fifties of the last century.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had a vision of Moroccan territory before the time of liberation, he projected freedom of movement for Moroccans and wanted to be the vehicle for crossing borders beyond the colonial barriers that fragmented Morocco.
In fact, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui owned and operated all-direction intercity travel transportation licenses in Morocco linking the north occupied by the Spanish protectorate with the middle of Morocco occupied by the French protectorate. Thus Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui established a kind of rapprochement which represented for him the opportunity to show his nationalist temperament and contribute to maintaining the link between the two colonized Morocco and its citizens.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui always considered Morocco as indivisible and he also did so by visiting all Sufi Zawiya and Marabout to celebrate their births with the faithful which was also an opportunity to cement ties and relationships with believers in the independence movement and rekindle the spirits around those Saints who were once Mujahideen, including those of the Zawiya of his own ancestors, the Cherkawiya of Boujad and surrounding towns.
Ahmed Balafrej and my father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui were close friends who started in Cairo, Egypt in 1927 and they embarked on many later interactions together. Balafrej was a name that I heard regularly in our house like those of other resistance fighters and nationalists from the first hour of the struggle. My father was behind the scenes a facilitator and organizer as well as a financier and helper of the independence movement in the cities where his company carried its operations which was the transport of travelers and goods and he was the first Moroccan Muslim who started in Morocco public transport services.
My Father’s buses were the carrier of mail, supplies of all kinds and information for nationalists across Morocco, since my Father’s buses had a transport license which is “Transport Tous Directions – Transport pour All Directions” and this was given to my Father given that Morocco had insufficient infrastructure and few transport services in addition to many regions not being under the control of the French colonial administration and my Father could venture into such areas given his connections and reputation with local tribal leaders.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui met Ahmed Balafrej who has since become his friend until the advent of independence and Balafrej’s new governmental responsibilities. Also, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui financed the construction of a mosque / meeting center in Cairo for Moroccan students residing in the Egyptian capital, this construction had brought them closer and Ahmed Balafrej and Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui discussed together gave the idea to my Moulay Ahmed to build a school teaching Arabic for the children of the Moroccan people in El Jadida in Morocco, city of residence of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.
In fact, the city of Cairo was founded by a Moroccan Amazigh dynasty, the Fatimids.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui’s journey toured the Middle East (Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Iraq and the Arabian Peninsula) and personal encounters with Islamists and Sufis through his pilgrimages to Jerusalem, Mecca – Medina, Damascus and Baghdad.
In fact, my whole family was a victim of reprisals from the French colonial authorities who sought to repress everything that represents a demand for independence, especially since the issue of Morocco was linked to that of Algeria and Tunisia.
My own brother spent more than 2 years of forced labor in the Atlas Mountains
My own Father was thrown in prison and lost all his property and he was forced to transfer the little that was left in the name of my Mother and my brothers and sisters before I was born.
One of my Father’s cousins was shot in broad daylight in Marrakech, the same week was my Father’s imprisonment.
Also, my father had built a school to teach Arabic to the sons of the people in Mazagan – El Jadida, it was usurped by the Istiqlalians who manage it until now: Madrassa Hassania.
This Madrasa Hassania was the result of the meeting between my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and Ahmed Balafrej in Cairo.My Father had financed the construction of premises in the Hay Maghariba next to the University of Azhar for Moroccan Students and refugees from the Rif War settled in Cairo (see photo: Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui in Cairo, Egypt 1927- 1930).
This had allowed the meeting between my Father and Balafrej who became Friends until Balafrej was swallowed up by his job in the Moroccan State and especially in the shenanigans of the usurpers of national power, the former collaborators / former Military of the regime of the Protectorate and the Istiqlalian usurpers.
For Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, all these activities have helped to strengthen awareness and ties between Moroccans with the aim of maintaining contact between them and showing their attachment to the ideal of restoring the legitimate right to the independence of the Kingdom of Morocco and the Sultanate of Morocco within a Single Morocco.

PARENTAL HERITAGE OF MOROCCAN NATIONALISM
November 6 2015
My Celebration in Spanish of our Recovery of our Moroccan Sahara from its occupation by the Colonialist Spanish State.
I’ll let you imagine the happy song I was singing at that time.
As my Sister said, we inherited the active nationalist spirit from our Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who asked the Ministry of Transport and Mining Services to grant him a public transport license to open a direct line toward the Moroccan Sahara by connecting Casablanca Sidi Ifni / Tarfaya and the Moroccan Sahara and that during the forties and fifties of the last century.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had a vision of Moroccan territory before the time of liberation, he projected freedom of movement for Moroccans and wanted to be the vehicle for crossing borders beyond the colonial barriers that have fragmented Morocco. In fact, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui owned and operated travel transport licenses for intercity all directions in Morocco connecting the north occupied by Spanish Protectorate to the middle occupied by French Protectorate.
For Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui this kind of connection represented for him an opportunity to show his nationalist temperament. He has always considered Morocco as indivisible and he has also done it by visiting all the Soufi Zawiya and Marabout to celebrate their births with the followers which was also an occasion to cement ties and relations with believers in the movement of independence and the spirits of many of these Saints that were in the past Mujahideen, including the ones from the Zawiya of his own ancestors Cherkawiya of Boujad and the surrounding towns.
Ahmed Balafrej and my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui were close friends that started in Cairo, Egypt in 1927 and they have started together in many interactions later on. Balafrej was a name I have heard regularly in our house like the ones of other resistants and nationalists of the first hour of the struggle. My father was behind the scene a facilitator and organizer as well as financier and helper of the movement of independence in the cities where his business carried out its operations which was the transportation of travelers and goods and he was the first Moroccan Muslim who started in Morocco the services of public transport.
The buses of my Father were the carrier of couriers, supply of all kind and informations for the nationalists around Morocco, given the buses of my Father had license for transport that is “Transport Tous Directions – Transportation for All Directions” and this was given to my Father given that Morocco had insufficient infrastructure and few services for transportation in addition that many regions were not under control of the French colonial administration and my Father could venture into such regions considering his relations and reputation the local chiefs of tribes.
Furthermore, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, following the end of the Rif War, traveled to Cairo to contact the Moroccan nationalists living or self-exiled in this city and the Moroccan Students at the Azhar University.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui met Ahmed Balafrej who has since become his friend until the advent of independence and Balafrej’s new governmental responsibilities. Also, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui financed the construction of a mosque / meeting center in Cairo for Moroccan students residing in the Egyptian capital, this construction had brought them closer and Ahmed Balafrej and Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui discussed together gave the idea to my Moulay Ahmed to build a school teaching Arabic for the children of the Moroccan people in El Jadida in Morocco, city of residence of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui. Ahmed Balafrej was one of the first to encourage my father to build such a school, since he himself had first taken classes in a school teaching Arabic in Rabat and his presence in Cairo where he met my father in is the result.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui financed the construction of a mosque / meeting center in Cairo for Moroccan students residing in the Egyptian capital.
In fact, my whole family was the victim of reprisals from the French colonial authorities who sought to repress everything that represents a demand for independence, especially since the issue of Morocco was linked to that of Algeria and Tunisia.
My own brother spent more than 2 years of hard labor in the Atlas Mountains
My own Father was thrown in prison and lost all his property and he was obliged to transfer the little that remained in the name of my Mother and my brothers and sisters when I was not yet born.
One of my Father’s cousins was shot in broad daylight in Marrakech, the same week was my Father’s imprisonment.
Also, my father had built a school to teach Arabic to the sons of the people in Mazagan – El Jadida, it was usurped by the Istiqlalians who manage it until now: Madrassa Hassania.
This Madrasa Hassania was the result of the meeting between my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and Ahmed Balafrej in Cairo. My Father had financed the construction of premises in the Hay Maghariba next to the University of Azhar for Moroccan Students and refugees from the Rif War settled in Cairo (see photo: Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui in Cairo, Egypt 1927- 1930).
This had allowed the meeting between my Father and Balafrej who became Friends until Balafrej was swallowed up by his job in the Moroccan State and especially in the shenanigans of the usurpers of national power, the former collaborators / former Military of the regime of the Protectorate and the Istiqlalian usurpers.
Ahmed Balafrej is more than just a political figure, he was a Man of words and affection with a great sense of honor and loyalty qualities that become obsolete during the post-independence thanks to Politician Politics by multiplied by political parties.
Ahmed Balafrej found himself faced with continual opposition, antagonism, shenanigans and manipulations like what happen to Ghandi.
How our family knows Ahmed Balafrej, after the sudden death of Mohammed V, he resigned first from all the official duties and became close to Moulay Hassan II just to protect Him and Morocco against the foreign interests still holding strong hands on Morocco through the descendants of the collaborators with the French Protectorate.
Morocco at that the time of the sudden death of Mohammed V who was the symbol of liberation of Morocco and the promoter of liberation of other surrounding african nations which added more oil on the fire set by the Neo-colonialists and the new rising elites coming from the Kissariates and formed in Grandes Ecoles of Bordeaux and Paris. Similar social conditioning happen later in Iran with the Bazaars and their sons in Europe who became the rulers topping the Shah.
Ahmed Balafrej tried to save Morocco from such undermining from inside which ended up by the jailing of his own son by whom, an ex-capitain of the Colonial French Army, who became l’Homme Fort du Maroc, General Oufkir. More to say about this.. later on.
For Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, all these activities have helped to strengthen awareness and ties between Moroccans with the aim of maintaining contact between them and showing their attachment to the ideal of restoring the legitimate right to the independence of the Kingdom of Morocco and the Sultanate of Morocco within a Single Morocco.

We appreciate your thought sharing with us a memory that is ours too.
French version:
Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui
Our Father Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui, beside Laghzawi, he was the first entrepreneur in the intercity transportation ventures and in other related and complementary sectors. A Moroccan Nationalist, a Benefactor and Contributor in the development of knowledge and education to enable the emergence from disfranchised social classes of new vanguard leadership of Moroccan with regional, national and international outreach. He envisioned and invested in schooling and housing as well as in providing jobs to the parents to reach such goal and all this way before the independence of Morocco.
Moulay Ahmed remains a pioneer with a constructive vision and an advocate of national and regional development seeking to advance the transportation system and the construction of railroads connecting El Jadida and Marrakech and other neighboring towns and peripheral cities to lay down the ground for the needed infrastructure needed to unlock the enclaves and to facilitate the regional integration that were increased by the French Government Policy of concentrating on certain cities and their connection with the maritime facade.
Other attributes and contributions of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui in reducing poverty and the considerable support he had deployed in the mid-forties to limit the spread of contagious diseases that have affected large sections of the countryside populations and entire regions. Additionally, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui devoted large part of his fortune to charitable work and direct logistical support that all directly benefited the nationalistic movement of independence and its own funding members.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui has also developed a network that span from Morocco to Iraq by meeting with the Moroccan Students living in Egypt, Palestine, Iraq and Mecca, for the aim to develop an awareness and support as well as local ramifications for the national question of independence .
All these involvements of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui will need one day the publication of several volumes.
Since the beginning of 1920’s, my Father rolled over many roads with motorcycles, buses and cars over unpaved and paved roads in Morocco and myself since 1962 I rolled my body mechanics on several roads of Morocco and this world.

Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui
Our Father, Our Friend, Our Maalem – Professional Master, Our Internship Master and Our First Course of Thought: Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui.
From Jerusalem, this holy city for all of us, my Father Haj Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui continued his journey to the countries of Greater Syria at the time in order to visit the great schools of Eastern Sufism.
One of the links in the heritage of the Tarika Cherkawiya fi Tassawouf was and remains for me, my own Father, of whom here is a quick outline of an existence which respected the attributes of the Cherkawa and that in the covered space as well as in the correspondence of the generosity offered.
Here is a brief introduction of one of the pillars of this tradition from a lost Zaouia the flat country of Tadla and covering the foot of the Atlas and serving as a place of a “Feline” Sufism without borders, mountains or oceans , just a spiritual connection transcending the limits of the very Being to make the invocation of the Wahid Ahad an infinite love without limit.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui …..to preserve this heritage, my own son has the same first and last name:

This trip was partly for the outward journey with and in the company of Moulay Said Bencherki, his best friend and “brother-in-law” by marital relationship was his companion in Egypt and Mecca. Subsequently, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui continued his journey to Damascus and Baghdad and back via Port Said to take the English boat which dropped him off at Gibraltar and then Tangier.

Thereafter, by car to Hay Al Maghariba and Al Azhar, Cairo, – Jeddah, by car to Mecca, Madina Mounawara, – By car to Jerusalem – Takdisse and visit of Bab Maghreb / Mourrakesh,
by car to Damascus, the capital of the Umayyads and Sufis of the Ottoman East – By car to Baghdad – Tassaouf to Moulay Abdelkader Jilali.
Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui, apart from Laghzaoui, he was the first entrepreneur in public transport and in other corresponding and complementary sectors. A Moroccan nationalist and a contributor in the dissemination of knowledge and education in favor of the creation of a leading strain stemming from the popular strata and this before the time of Morocco’s independence.
Moulay Ahmed remains a pioneer with a constructive and “developmentalist” vision seeking to promote the progress of transport and the construction of railways linking El Jadida to Casablanca and even Marrakech and other neighboring cities as infrastructure bases for emancipation. enclaves and to facilitate regional integration to break the straitjacket imposed by the selective policy of the authorities of the French Protectorate which favored certain inland towns and their service with a handful of towns located on the seafront.
The other attributes and contributions of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui in the reduction of poverty and by the considerable aid that he had deployed to limit the spread and the destruction of human lives by contagious diseases which affected in the mid-1940s whole sections of the regional population as well as its own financing of the members of the national movement of independence of Morocco can only be quoted in volumes denser than the space of this page. The ramifications of all the regional and national and even international engagements (Egypt, Palestine, Iraq and Mecca) can alone be the subject of another book.
Indeed, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui has also developed a network that extends from Morocco to Iraq through his meetings and direct contacts with Moroccan students living in Egypt, Palestine, Iraq and Mecca, and this for the aim of developing local awareness and ramifications in support of the issue of national independence.

★ Marrakech ★ ★ Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui ★ Ouled Bahja ★ ★ Pioneer Entrepreneur of Morocco and R ajoul d’El Jadida de Coeur, Doukkalaix and Amazigh by Alliance Familiale ★
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui was born in Derb Hentata, Moul Kssour, the place where the first constructions of the City of Marrakech began, just under the shadow of the Great Koutoubia and opposite the entrance to Sidi Abdelaziz, Massine and the shopping center of the real and first Medina of Marrakech, namely first Jamaa El Fna, Bab Ftouh and Samarine. One cannot be located more than that in the central core of the Old Medina of Marrakech.

Said El Mansour Cherkaoui – June 2, 2014
French French Version:
Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui, apart from Laghzaoui, he was the first entrepreneur in transport and in other corresponding and complementary sectors. A Moroccan nationalist and a contributor to the dissemination of knowledge and education in favor of the creation of a leading vanguard from the popular strata and this before its time.
Moulay Ahmed remains a pioneer with a constructive and “developmentalist” vision seeking to promote the progress of transport and the construction of railways linking El Jadida to Marrakech and other neighboring cities as infrastructure bases for the emancipation of enclaves and to facilitate regional integration to break the straitjacket imposed by the selective policy of the French authorities a regional division based on the needs of strategic military control and the extraction and export of indigenous products, thus favoring certain cities and their service with a few ports and the adjacent towns located on the seafront.
The other attributes and contributions of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui concerned among others the reduction of poverty having been caused by the appropriation of the tribal lands by the colonists and the consequent rural exodus. Moulay Ahmed had also consented to and directed considerable aid that he had deployed to limit the spread and destruction of human lives by contagious diseases that affected whole sections of the regional population of Doukkala and Abda in the mid-1940s. He advocated the adoption of children from families affected and vulnerable to these scourges. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had also directed of his own free will and without asking him for his own direct and indirect financing of the members of the national independence movement of Morocco.
At the end of the 1930s, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had previously dedicated part of his garages to the location and location of a Medersa for learning Classical Arabic and the Koran. He came a Fakih/Taleb Si Abbas from the Doukkala region and gave him a house so that he could educate his children and the children of his neighborhood and all the surrounding neighborhoods.
The use of a large part of its own land assets and this while providing the financing of its own funds for the construction of a school that can be used for the education of children and also for literacy campaigns for adults and especially for women. Indeed, given the surge of populations from rural areas in Mazagan, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui decided to launch a construction site for the construction of a primary and secondary school which he designated by Hassaniya in celebration of Moulay Hassan Alaoui who was still a Crown Prince Teenager. This School still exists today in the same street or before it had already built its home and which still belongs to us.
Much remains to be quoted from the works of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, the extent of which can only be quoted in volumes denser than the space of this page.
Beyond all this, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui has also developed a network that extends from Morocco to Iraq through his meetings and direct contacts with Moroccan students living in Egypt, Palestine, Iraq and Mecca, and this for the purpose of developing local awareness and outreach in support of the issue of national independence.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui belongs to the most revolutionary party among the Cherkaoui, since all the Cherkawa of Marakech are direct descendants of those exiled by the Sovereign to Marrakech given their affiliation with the movements of demand and protest against the abuses of the local representatives of the power. This historical fact had therefore been the main reason for the presence in Marrakech of all the sides of my paternal family and therefore for centuries, these Cherkaoui of the Revolt were natives and residents of Marrakech and that until this day. This character trait had accompanied several Cherkaoui in the identification of their personalities in the rejection of abuse and the absurdity of social neglect.
The awareness of the presence of such breaches of the duty to do good, the uprooting of their ancestral land and the distance with the places of the burial of their ancestors and its spiritual space imposed on several Cherkaoui men and women of Marrakech to work for the creation of conditions conducive to the sharing and extension of the good for the people who are theirs. This quality of wanting to find light in the darkness of the destructive actions of others is one of the fundamental characteristics of Zawiya Cherkawiya Sufism.
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui was fully conscientious and bearer of such emblems, symbols and beliefs that he had translated into actions around him and this for others, for strangers and even strangers wherever his foot trod the ground both in Morocco and in other countries.
Indeed, all the time, he repeated this expression to me:
“Faker fi Kheir, Amel Kheir, Wa Afaal Kheir wa Saadatek ya Faael al Kheir”
Also, he composed my first name of Said El Mansour and that for one and only reason which is directly distilled by his high belief in the Future of the Moroccan Nation. Another aspect of the visionary character of my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.

In Memory of our Love of the Independence of Morocco
Transports Cherkaoui: The History of Transport in Mazagan is the History of Transport Cherkaoui – It is also the History of Interurban Public Transport in Morocco First Muslim Industrial Manufacturer of Coaches and Public Carrier in Morocco between 1920 – 1948 , later through donations to members of his immediate family including his adopted son, the late Hbibi Mustapha Raiss.
My first name and surname are: Said El Mansour Cherkaoui My two daughters are called: Habiba Ait Youssi Cherkaoui and Bouteina Ait Youssi Cherkaoui My son is called: Moulay Ahmed Ait Youssi Cherkaoui My first name is Said El Mansour and I was born in 1950 and son of Habiba Ait Youssi Taleb Hmad (Amazigh Confederation and Nation of Ait Youssi) and Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui (Cherkawa of Marrakech and Zawiya Cherkaoui, Boujad)
My first name and its composition of Said and El Mansour were chosen with reason and with a precise goal by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who are ★ the Independence of our Kingdom of Morocco ★ Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui wanted these two qualifiers to become the designation of our National Homeland built on Happiness = Saad = Said Victory = Nassr = El Mansour
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had always given the first names of my Brothers and my Sisters with a precise intention and metaphor beyond the proper designation but as a cultural, political and spiritual identity which designates and concerns Morocco and its historical particularities. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had even established links beyond our borders with the spirits who wanted the independence of Morocco and that even in Cairo in Egypt, where he went in 1930.
★ Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui is a Nationalist inside and out until his eternal departure in 1978 ★
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, the one who worked all his adult life directly for the Independence of Morocco on the social, economic, educational and family level towards the Moroccan nation.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui contributed directly with his money and his real estate in the enhancement and advancement of the cause of the independence of Morocco and this by several direct and secret actions either in El Jadida, in Marrakech, in Fes and in Casablanca.
This flame of the independence of Morocco inspired my late Brother Si Driss to join secret groups of the struggle for independence, in particular through first the Kechafas and the movement of the Scouts which served as a liaison for the formation of the minds of young people. separatists. The secret actions for the independence of my brother Si Driss will cost him at the end of the decade of 1940 more than 2 years of imprisonment and forced labor in the construction of roads around Ifrane under the snow.
During the Administration of the French Protectorate in Morocco by General Alphonse Juin from May 1947 to July 1951, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui suffered all possible vexations with even imprisonment in Marrakech (Glaoui was the Pasha with his Chancellor Haj Idar) and accusations of all kinds prefabricated by the acolytes and collaborators of the Colonial Administration.
In Marrakech, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui financed and granted funds and transport logistics for members of the organization of the Black Hand, the real one who fought clandestinely for genuine independence from Morocco before it sank into internal heartbreak when its attacks began to veer and aim inconsistently with the objectives of national independence. According to my father, this organization, in principle militant for independence, was subsequently manipulated to make it a tool of discord and enrichment which obliterated the organization from the inside, in particular by tearing apart the movement of national independence.
The Black Hand thus began to liquidate all who seemed to them to be collaborators or direct supporters of the colonial presence in Morocco and even those who fought against this link with the Far Right formed by Colonists Jealous of their interests in Morocco. A large part of the settlers and entrepreneurs wanted at all costs to maintain their presence exploiting the vestiges of the Protectorate despite the fact that France suffered the repercussions of Nazi domination.
Our direct cousin, a Cherkaoui from the Branch of Sidi M’hamed and Moulay Abdessalam, known as Bayoud in Marrakech was a direct victim of these infighting within the Black Hand organization.
Our properties either in Marrakech or El Jadida and even in Casablanca, such as the transportation ticket sales offices were often the meeting places and meetings of the leaders of the resistance fighters in these cities.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui at his own expense, used his cars and coaches to bring from Fez, Marrakech, Rabat and Casablanca the families of resistance fighters and nationalists imprisoned in the Agricultural Prison of Ader in the suburbs of El Jadida. My Father and my Mother also offered shelter, clothing and food to these families and their husbands imprisoned in this prison. Thus, several members of the First Moroccan Government under Mohammed V passed through and benefited from the direct support and hospitality of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and Habiba Taleb Hmad Ait Youssi. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui was punished by the Colonial Administration for his affiliations, his efforts and his achievements and for also having a Son fighting directly for independence by taking most of his property from him,
Our House was decorated with giant portraits of Mohammed V, and my father always insisted on dressing on special occasions, such as on his trips abroad, as Mohammed V dressed. One of his photos in the Mohamed V airport in Nouasser and that when he left for Mecca in the company of my Mother, he was actually dressed like Mohamed V:
Moroccan Elegance, Cultural Habit or Nationalist Pride?
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui is all of this plus he always felt he represented a Royal and Sovereign spirit in the Chérifien and Chérif sense of the word.

Mohamed Khamisse – Sultan of Morocco
On behalf of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and Habiba Taleb Hmad and his children and their descendants, we ask that Justice must be done and restored to correct the abuses and spoliations Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui suffered from the Colonial Administration in Morocco and we demand the return of his approvals to his legitimate heirs.
One of the first was and remains the particularity of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to have been and to be the first Muslim Moroccan to start public transport and to have established the first local structures for the construction of coaches in Morocco respectively Bab Ftouh and El Jadida.
First in Marrakech, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui undertook to introduce public transport which subsequently also materialized through the acquisition and management of a Garage located on Rue de la Koutoubia in Marrakech [Place Jamaa El Fna] and which served for several decades as a parking place for coaches leaving for Casablanca and for Mazagan – El Jadida and other Moroccan cities.
The two districts of Derb Berkaoui and Sfa by their location at the gate of the city and overlooking the fertile plains of Doukkala sown by the presence and exploitation of large estates by European settlers, were therefore specialized in the reception, transformation and packing, putting in bags and wooden cases of all poultry, agricultural and even forestry products which were thus exported to the United States and European countries via the port of Mazagan which was one of the most important ports of Morocco with Tangier and Mogador.
In fact, this proximity to the exit of the City was the reason why my Father set up his workshops and sheds for his transport coaches and built his own house there to found his new family.
This commercial logistical use turned both towards the outside of the city and its rural outskirts of supply and as a transmission belt for the corresponding products and natural resources had also shaped the population living in the neighborhoods of the Saniyate district (Garden Maraicher) Berkaoui and Sfa . The majority of the local population of this district was versed in the preparation, the routing and the payment of exports through the offices of large export house held largely by Judaics and Europeans from other neighboring towns such as Azemmour, Safi and even Essaouira.These Judaics by these origins could have a complementary network in the management of foreign trade also seen their acceptance and integration by the representatives of foreign countries installed in Mazagan as Consuls and Consular Agents who were sometimes negotiators for several countries at the same time strangers. In fact, thanks to such connections, the Ecole Israélite was one of the first public schools to be built in Mazagan and inaugurated by representatives of France and foreign countries conducting international trade in the city.
The Jewish School was therefore a work not of charity but of training to prepare the managers of banks, brokerage houses, import-export, administration and especially translation of the corresponding operations with the “natives – natives Muslims” who only handled the Mhrate, the supply of products, the preparation of products and bags and boxes and not the strategic logistics of correspondence and inventory as well as transfer, customs and storage transactions. international trade nomenclature day. These operations were indeed the source of income for the payment of the external debt which was the reason for the invasion of Morocco and the imposition of the French Protectorate in Morocco.
It is in such a context of educational clientelism and extrovert connection of professional relations that my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui undertook to change the vectors of colonial domination and his relations of complicity with collaborating local elites, including the Jewish community.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui: Education as a Vehicle for Social and Economic Progress
The strong link in the colonial relationship, adapting the local and regional conditions for the exploitation of natural, human and financial resources, was thus concentrated in the Education and Training of an elite who could serve as a complementary technocracy to the colonialist administration of military- bureaucratic order with its support built on colonial exploitation by colonists imported from all over Catholic Europe.
The Muslim Moroccan from the masses and working-class neighborhoods in their great majority therefore had no place in this educational system objectivizing the strengthening and progression of flows of exploitation. For this purpose the Jewish School was built and later, the School of Native Notables. The Israelite School had not imposed any admission requirements other than being of the Judaic religion, while the School for Native Notables, it recruited only among families of a certain economic level or through their inclusion in colonial daily life. It was therefore necessary to show and prove one’s allegiance to the colonial system involved.
My father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui understood very well this invisible and conductive link of a winding and silent exploitation of Moroccan resources through the establishment of structures favoring a modernization of its workings, transfer, management and financing.
So how at the same time prepare the members of the popular mass for the Morocco of tomorrow that my Father projected and saw as an independent country free of its educational choices as well as its choices of belief and ideological thought?
For Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, Education was the ultimate and top priority to achieve such a vision.
Among the achievements of our Father Moulay Ahmed was indeed the materialization of his desire to prepare a new generation of independent Moroccans at all levels and first of all at that of knowledge, knowledge and Education.
For this reason, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui built on his own land and with his own financial funds the Hassania School in our own district of Birth in El Jadida and which is still booming to this day.
Before the construction of this school, my father had built a Jamaa right next to my birthplace in Derb Berkaoui, for this Msid, my father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui brought if Abbass Fqih from the surrounding region Mazagan to teach Arabic and the Koran to the grandchildren of Derb Berkaoui and Sfa, of which I can cite a few:
Abdellah ouled Mkadem Mehdi and his brother Kroudi, Si Mohamed Ouled Hafiane, Bouchaib Negash, Mustapha Ouled Bejdad, Ouled Bel Fassi the Big Brother of Abdelkébir Khatibi and others will come back to me later. Allah ya Rhamhum Ajmaeen fi Firdousse Naim Ameen ya Rab Alameen. This Mssid, Koranic School was the first to be built for the two popular districts juxtaposed and surrounded by Villas and houses inhabited by Europeans and no school existed in these two districts.
At the time, the schools that existed were in the old town and the Derb Berkaoui and Sfa districts were considered resort areas and enjoyment of exotic parks, the beach, the Casino and fairground games. the proximity of the military barracks, summering center, the Haras and the round for car and cyclist races. These two districts were at the exit of Mazagan giving on the one hand towards the exit of the City, Kamra, the road of Marrakech and all along the Ocean, Nour Kamar and Armoude gave on the Road leading to Casablanca in crossing to the Penitentiary Ader and Azemmour and Chtouka among others. My father settled there in the Saniyate Berkaoui,
Madrasset Ba e wa Dyalna this Madrassa belongs to my Father and to us, it was my Father who built it and paid for all the construction on his own, including doors and windows, tables and paintings were built and assembled by a team that included Maalem Bouchaib Chorfi in my father’s workshop where the coaches were already built, right next to our birthplace and family home and the windows whose order was placed at the Si Belakbir Store opposite Haziza , it was my father who gave him the name of Moulay Hassan who was still a child, Hassaniya.
To pay homage to this name of Hassania given by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to his school, that the students of this same school who subsequently gave football clubs in our neighborhood derb berkaoui and sfa the same name which has the end was attributed by them as Larbi Bakle to Diffaa Hassani and that before 1956.
As his son and his present living memory, I, Said El Mansour Cherkaoui, can only salute such a vision which defied time and remains currently and to this day, a validity of thought concerning a real, robust and authentic development of human resources of our city, our region and of Morocco. Several literary, political and social personalities from Mazagan – El Jadida and Des Doukkala took the course of this Hassania School and succeeded in asserting their capacities and their intellectual potential.
I open a parenthesis to correct a misconception of the reality of our Medrassa Hassania to answer in the following way:
I am the son of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui is the rightful owner and builder of Medrassa Hassania de Sanyate / Derb Berkaoui. The descendants of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui are the legitimate heirs to the property of the Medrassa Hassania.
My Father had built and financed this Mederssa Hassania from the foundations to the roofs and everything in between. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui wanted this Medrassa Hassania to be open and free for the children of the Moroccan people of El Jadida and a place of job creation at the same time of training new Moroccan generations mastering foreign languages. My father was fluent in his mother’s Tachelhit Berber, was fluent in French and Spanish and understood Italian given his professional and friendly relations with the nationals of these countries in Mazagan itself and in Morocco, both north and south.
I regret that everything written above is absolutely false and completely without authentic historical merit with regard to this part that I am copying for you here below:
مساهمات شخصيات من الحي وعن طريق تقديم ( البطاين) عيد الاضحى (( جمعها وبيعها لتمويل عملية البناء وتجهيزها )) من قبل سكان الصفاء والبركاوي للذين كانوا يشرفون على بناءها وخاصة من عناصر قيادية محلية من الحركة الوطنية فصيل حزب الاستقلال مثل لمسفر والحاج عبدالله خالد يحيى وغيرهم ولكن بعد الاستقلال وفي العقود الأخيرة وقع خلاف حول من له الحق في ملكيتها وحسم الأمر حسب علمي لفائدة احد أبناء قيادي سابق في الحزب كان يقيم ويعمل بالدارالبيضاء…
This part mentioned above is a blatant propaganda and a distortion of reality, and I will just give you an example on what the Istiqlal how he recovered for his own benefit all the resources that the Aroubis of Doukkala gave him believing that the Istiqlal would build them a new and prosperous country where their children will flourish.
Until this day, we are still waiting for this achievement, it’s like waiting for Sidna Kder / Godot to come.
Just these sheepskins, it can give a great idea how a diversion and an illegitimate use of the funds collected were orchestrated by scoundrels camouflaged under djellabas as conservatives, they never attacked anything except is to attack the boxes where the money collected from the poor Beni Oui Yes who were sweating the burnous to give them such gifts.
The names of the property usurped in the name of independence were squandered and had contributed to the enrichment of several people you mention and with this embezzled money, once their dirty work was done and finished they left El Jadida and businesses founded real estate and other prosperous for them and the new alliances they have forged through business marriages with the new rising elites of descent from Fez, Casablanca, Rabat, Tetouan and Meknes, to name only the most famous elite families.
It makes me laugh to read that the sheepskins are used to finance the construction of our Hassania school. Indeed, the construction of the fortunes of the families of which you speak was made with the sheep of Panurge, those who followed with good faith these skinners and these cutthroats of national independence by taking the real militants towards Gourna to preserve their interests and that in the name of sacrifice for the Moroccan nation.
When these cheap pseudo-leaders of the Istiqlal addressed the members of their party and their direct militants of Fassi origin, they advised them to educate their children and send them to Europe for their higher education.
When these cheap pseudo-leaders of the Istiqlal address themselves to the Arroubis of Doukkala, they advise them to cultivate their lands and not to let their children go to European countries, since spending more than 40 days in a country Christian makes them disbelievers and resembling the Kouffars.
In fact, this story of sheepskins had subsequently become a mockery when it was discovered the bribe and the washing of the collected money which was intended for the formation of fortunes as was the case later with the lifting taxes on cigarettes and matches to finance the FNLP if your memory is still able to remember that too and it was once again the Istiqlal that put into practice like the case of the sheepskins of cash which left no trace.
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had financed from start to finish the entire construction of the Hassania School including even the doors and windows and the tables with inkwell. My father’s garages which juxtaposed the Hassania School and even passed around our native house which still exists in the same place to end up with another garage which served as a hangar for the construction of coach bodies with framework. It was in these garages that my father deposited the construction materials and all the equipment including the manufacture of windows and doors and wooden tables.
Madrassa Hassania belongs to the Cherkaoui Family of which I am one of the sons, to my Sister Lalla Khadija Cherkaoui first and to the descendants of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
All the rest are thieves, usurpers and despoilers who take advantage of our absence.
the Hassania School was never given to anyone by Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, this story is a pure fabrication and distortion of reality to serve and preserve their illegitimate and illegal exploitation.
All those who tell you such nonsense are Nassaba and Mafiosi or their accomplices who got their hands on our Madrassa Hassania, ask them to show you a document proving this donation.
Ask them to show you the land title of this Medrassa Hassaniya.
I challenge them to present them, they have absolutely nothing.
You will see that it is a bluff, they are all usurpers and despoilers and they have become masters in the matter for those who have diverted all the wealth of newly independent Morocco and also for those who continue to suck Morocco in our present day.
I will continue this story another day with more details
Thereafter, I will publish more on the contribution of this Man in the prosperity of Marrakech and El Jadida and even Casablanca and other regions and confines starting from Mazagan – El Jadida and Doukkala as bases of operations and this during his time and his corresponding nationalist and social activities.
Indeed, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui was also a participant and patron of resistance groups in Marrakech and El Jadida.
That said and for the moment, I am content to give you this brief overview of my Illustrious Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and that in the present form.
May Allah ya Rham Walidaina Ajmaeen wa man Sabakana mina Mouaminine Salihine, Ameen ya Rab Alameen.

I know the Salinas Family very well, first of all the two Salinas brothers were great friends of my father who spoke perfect Castilian. My father had been in Spain and northern Morocco before the Rif War. Then one of the sons of the Salinas was a Tennisman and the other a fencer who came to train and give us lessons at the Sports Hall in Fencing with Carpozen and with our direct Fencing Master Abou Said Cherkaoui, one of the best fine blades from all over North Africa and this at the time of Charles ElGrissy and this just in front of their home behind the Shell station opposite the Marhaba Cinema.

Later, they were also used by Salinas (a small gas station existed on the corner and belonged to Salinas, see photo above) and not the CTM but as Salinas had the CTM as the place of departure and arrival so its coaches were considered by some to be Salinas CTM while it had its own maintenance and parking garage just next to the Bar Port-Said and opposite the Doumi depot garage and the wines on the side of the Auto-Hall, and in the area lived in the Salinas, the owner and his brother who was the driver and the manager.

I know this place very well, I worked in the coaches of my Father Transports Cherkaoui tous Directions.
It was my father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who initiated the construction of this bus station which he wanted to be next to the CTM.
As proof that my Father built this Station, the first 3 offices in this Station which were built first were managed by my Father and this is where our cars actually parked and that until the end of the fifties with Bouchaib Askri who sold our tickets for the trip and the first two offices until the move to the new station of the Ouled Chentoufiya field.

Journey with My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
My Father during a visit – Ziyara that we had undertaken in Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich – that later I understood why this visit in the depths of the forest of the mountains of Jbala where no road led to the sanctuary. We walked for a whole day and at that time Guardia Civil was still present as a symbol of Spain in the north. We had traveled the North with a Four Horses Renault with the engine behind. It was a Cadillac for me or a miniature Royce Rolls.
Years later, I actually fully grasped the reason for this pilgrimage, since Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich was a disciple of the Tarika Tasaouf of the Cherkawa – and very early in the morning, in freezing temperatures, we were sitting on the ground covered with plates of cork and in front of us a beacon of 4 corners erected with stones from the surrounding mountains, in no way cut but only chosen according to the flatness of their shape and placed on top of each other thus enclosing a large tree of cork and in the middle, a orifice acting as a window to see the inside of this colossal tower, intriguing by its solidity and balance by its disparate rock stones.
My Father explained to me that the descendants of Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich had tried several times to build a Mausoleum but each time before finishing it, the whole building collapsed at night and that this tree went up in the middle of the tomb like a surface response to effectively prevent them from starting construction again. In fact, my Father specified that Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich had repeatedly advised his disciples and heirs not to build him a Mausoleum but to cover it with what had accompanied him in his meditations and prayers. His tomb was actually perched on a peak of one of the mountains and had a panoramic view of the rest of the surrounding ranges.
A view only the mind can measure the origin and the awe-inspiring bliss of such a natural construction which provided space for the acceptance of divine right over ephemeral material. In these mountainous corridors, the humble addressed their God and found their way to Sufi Cherkawa serenity.
In this willed solitude the love of the Divine was the end of all existence.
In this contemplation of the surrounding nature, Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich found refuge to conduct his prayers and from his rejection of any celebration which should simply be reserved for the almighty and beyond his own existential territory as a direct and eternal attachment to the Rouh Sufiya.
This window had wrought iron which resembled the great buildings of medieval castles. My Father sat by my side and both of them in a straight suit in the posture out of respect and frozen by the freezing cold and by the imposing presence of the spirit of Moulay Abdessalam ben Mchich. In this spiritual reverence, my Father continued to ask me in a very low voice saying to me:
“Wlidi, look in the skylight-window, do you see anything? »
I answered him all the time, yes, a cork oak tree, a candid answer from a child who was wise and respectful of his Father and the peaceful surroundings. No children were around, only the rocks and the projecting points of the oaks and the mountains which wove in the clear blue horizon the image of a continuation of the teeth of a rocky and verdant saw.
My Father had leaned towards me and from closer and in a low voice, clear and scathing in its content whispered in my ear:
“Look carefully through the bars of this window, look closely, there is a Lion inside. »
I jumped on my seat but my Father comforted me and told me that it was the projection of this Great Sufi Man.
In fact, it was also a greeting from a disciple of the Cherkaoui who wanted to mark our visit to the Peaks of these Mountains with a majestic presence and who greeted my Father and his Son as the descendants of his masters and thus wanted to preserve the lineage in thought as in the paternal and common memory between Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich and Sidi Mhamed Cherki through our presence.
We were the guests of a Lion who in fact, for me, as my Father’s guest I considered this presence as a blessing from the True Lion that it was My Father who reflected his image in the Oukouf of Sadat.
The night before another revelation in the fire was also ours. Another time I will tell the details.
Since that time and for years to come before crossing the seas, I could reduce the tension of the fire on the body and several times I accomplished such an appeasement for the cousins and cousins of Marrakech.
May God keep us on the straight path of the Baraka of our ancestors and ancestors.
Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchiche and Abdessalam Cherkaoui: It must be added to this that My Brother was named Abdessalam with the nickname of Azhar by My Father in reference to Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich who was also a disciple of the Zawiya Sufiya of Cherkawa and the name of Abdessalam Cherkaoui must also come from such affiliation and identification of all Cherkaoui. Rahima Allah Mawtana Sabikine.

Brief Summary on the Bio of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui that happened to be my Wonderful Father used to own Cabanas on the beach that he rented to the Beach-goers-Estivants during the whole year.
Later on, my Father – Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui as the First Moroccan Entrepreneur in the Bus intercity transportation business – long-distance passenger bus services – acquired in the late sixties a Cafe, Hotel and Restaurant in Marrakech, his birthplace. In fact, it is in Marrakech where he launched initially in early 1920’s his first bus venture. He entered the Medina of Marrakech with 10 buses and parked them near the Mosque of Bab Ftouh on the side of the Great Place of Jamaa El Fna to let the Marrakechis – his co-city inhabitants to see and used his buses and not to travel any more with Caravan and mules. He wanted to modernize and he did the Moroccan means and resources of public transportation.
In fact, on the left side of the same place of Jamaa El Fna at the City of Marrakech, the Cherkaoui Family still owns a space that my Father had used as permanent Garage for his buses and all the buses that connect Marrakech to Mazagan in round -trip.
At Marrakech, I learned how to manage bus transportation operations and hospitality business services. My Father was a complete Encyclopedia of business management in terms of synergistic, horizontal and vertical integration of business development and customer relationship retention before even the concept was taught in the western business schools.
Without any sense of nostalgia or exaggeration or even memory deviation, this kind of innovation brought by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to the Entrepreneurial History and the Social Evolution of Morocco is just the tip of the iceberg. Morocco – 1920-1948
The First Coach Builder in Mazagan as a private Muslim company was the work of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, he imported chassis directly from France.
These Chassis from Maison Panhard, Minerva, Berliet arrived in Casablanca – Port by boat with just the steering wheel, a temporary driver’s seat, the fenders, the lights and the front headlights located on the front of the engine, the front fenders where you can could put a tire on each side of the spare tires, the gearbox, the handbrake, the axle and the rear axle, the bumpers in front and behind wa Salate ala nabi.
Everything else was made in house in our Garages in Derb Berkaoui and before that at what was called Kamra at the exit of Mazagan on the road to Marrakech, it was the first industrial zone, at the limit of the Heriya of the Bencherki family especially Moulay Said Bencherki the father of Ahmed Bencherki.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had also trained under his direction a large pleiad of bodybuilders in Mazagan including Mimoun, Belfakir Moussa, Maalem Bouchaib, Maalem Bouchaib Chorfi, Maalem Larbi Cicklisse Melhaoui, Negache Bouchaib Brother of Ouled Rahal and Zniber, Boucherit, Rahali and his master builder and many others.
Similarly, anyone who wanted to do a job as a coach driver should come to Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to learn not only driving but especially mechanics since roadside assistance did not exist. It was necessary to repair on the road otherwise no arrival.
So Transports Cherkaoui combined Modeling, Coach Construction, Bodywork, Production of Exchange Parts, Carpentry, Painting, General Mechanics and Driving School apprenticeship for coaches and Trucks.
It is this capacity of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to offer such vertical and horizontal integration of services and downstream and upstream at the level of industrial production in parallel with passenger transport operations that had allowed continuous technical innovation of the time within its initiatives as they made my Father the Moroccan Muslim Pioneer in the fields of Automotive Construction from the birth of inter-city Public Transport in Morocco.
All this happened in the mid-1920s since our current house with the old garages dates from the mid-1920s – early 1930s the date it was built by my father and it still exists in Hamouwamate Sfa, Saniate / Derb Berkaoui.

It should also be noted that the luggage rack was initially used for the transport of passengers as well. With the introduction of new, faster coach models, the upper gallery was reserved for carrying luggage only and the greaser used a net so that luggage did not fall overboard.
Some coaches, on the other hand, especially those serving villages and weekly souks, took passengers’ pets on board.
For this category First Series, First Class for Main Lines, coaches were not allowed to take pets on board. Even the chickens, the turkeys traveled free range overboard on the rack and the Oiler always made sure to tie them down tightly otherwise they might fly away.
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui arrived in Mazagan in 1920 with coaches he had in Marrakech, he had at that time more than 10 approvals. He forced the authorities of Mazagan at that time and with his own capital too, to let him build behind the port, the first official bus station in Mazagan.
First and before the construction of this station, my Father’s Cars parked in front of where there was Cinema le Paris and where there was also the First Post Office of Morocco and Mazagan, which was inaugurated by Itsshak Brudo whose name was given to the same place and this in front of the Dar Dariba Kdima, also the First Perception and House of Taxes.
This place therefore had the post office – I think it was called Hotel de la Poste – in fact this name was worth it since it was next to the hotels, the presence of the coaches of my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and the CTM in these places was important for the mail, the newspapers, the packages and the letters as well as the payments due and the goods ordered in the cities, the souks and the villages by which the buses of my Father and those of the CTM transited and were passing. So my Father’s coaches, like those of the CTM, were the ones that transported the mail between the towns and their outskirts. *
On the other hand, the construction of hotels around this place, at the Café Français and behind with the Hotel de Bordeaux and Switzerland and others around this place, therefore found the reason for their location in this part of Mazagan thanks to the Cars of the CTM and of my Father who brought tourists, travelers and visitors.
What I am telling here can be verified in the Ministry of Transport where the largest file that exists in the archives is the File of Cherkaoui of Mazagan and El Jadida. All amenities that date from 1920 – 1930 in Mazagan as private amenities are of origin from the membership of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, period neither more nor less and this is the authentic history of Morocco not only of Mazagan.
My father was also the builder of the Transport Office also in Casablanca Derb Omar (where the roadway was built of cobblestones like in Paris) and in Rabat Bab Had and in Marrakech first Bab Ftouh and Derb Koutoubia in Jammaa el Fna.
All the Muslim carriers that have existed in Mazagan and elsewhere came after my father as the first Moroccan Muslim entrepreneur of private interurban transport and for this he was the first president of the Association of Moroccan Carriers and President of the Transport Commission within of the Ministry of Transportation and Mines.
* Article that Place Brudo given the presence of the Hotel des Postes, this place also served as a departure point for transport coaches at that time, all directions, including those that belonged to my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who knew the Brudo .
An article entitled: “The road from Marrakech to El-Jadida (Mazagan) during the 20th century. can be found in this link:
* Until the 1960s, when my father made me “get on” the bus during the summer holidays, we took mail and newspapers and other folds to Sidi Smain, Sidi Bennour at Martinez and Guerrando Tnite Bouchane.

There was an expression that testifies to the importance of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui in the history of Moroccan public transport and this, according to a friend, is in the confines of Zaer where it was thus said:
“Wach ta Andek Kirane Cherkaoui”
The other famous expression was sung by the Chikhates:
“Wa Car diyal Cherkaoui Lhmar fi Agba ya Kfar”
Indeed, all the coaches of my Father Moulay Ahmed Chekaoui at one time in his history were painted red and then in light azure blue.

The parking garage and the departure of coaches from Marrakech to Casablanca and Mazagan belonged to Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui and belongs to us until today is located in Jamaa El Fna. Moussa Belfakir and his Brothers had never touched or tooled a bodywork for a Minerva or a Panhard in all their lives. Similarly Moussa Belfakir had no parking or transport service property apart from their garage opposite the Land Registry and Vita and Puglisi and the other Italo-Frenchman who built the caravans. I leave the floor to Ali Belfakir for now, more information will come later.
Second Part: My Father, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui the Father of the Muslim Mechanical Industry in Morocco.
It is not a fault, nor my responsibility that my Father had helped Moussa Belfakir in all areas even at the level of the purchase of agreements and coaches from my Father and between us, they were by no means settled completely, there had a large sum due which was never paid to my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui. Yes, that too is the truth and even this truth was also repeated by Mokhtar also with respect to my Mother and that in coalition with the Son of Bouchrit, yes the heir of the late Boucherit, since Bouchrit Father like Moussa Belfakir were also in time lamong the proteges of my Father, my Mother trusted her eldest son I believe Abdesslam Boucherit, this also turned out to be a carousel of special effects and forgery and use of forgery.
Yes our Memory is hard to erase from our minds because as we say it’s the truth that we don’t need to repeat it to remember it, it is omnipresent and that no matter the place, the distance and time traveled between its birth and its narration.
Here, out of respect for the individuals whom my Father rubbed shoulders with of all confessions, I say that Thanks to God, Hashem and Allah, I remain his spokesperson.
I’ll let you go and document all these aspects that you apparently don’t know and come back here with an argument based and supported by solid facts and memories to enrich our sharing and our debate far from the frustrations and gratuitous emotions that should like we say among us who possess sportsmanship; they should stay out of the locker room or locked up in the Lockers.
When we enter the field it is to show our game and our ability to throw the other team with righteousness and skill but not only with Tehrasse, that is for the Boujadiyines as we say at home in Doukkala.
On this I leave you to think and accumulate the evidence as I said before that I would like to read from you but no complaints or complaints please, we have issued enough of the same as it is, it’s time to rebuild our memory and that without the comfort of the destructive couple that is lethargy and amnesia. [Ali Belfakir]
Sincerely and professionally yours, receive my sincere regards and let me know if you need new and additional information on this chapter of the Mazagan Life of My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.
I thank you Ali Belfakir as well as my Sister Lalla Khadija Cherkaoui for having given me here the opportunity to clarify my memories and to specify my observations on my Father, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui the Father of the Muslim Mechanical Industry in Morocco.

Ali Belfakir , I am not here to boost my morale or pretend things that we are not or to distort the reality of our existence, I am here for the only reason which is that of not losing contact with my memories of which my friends over 40 years old here and elsewhere are the bearers and the roots and of which I am proud to have carried them within me throughout my life.

Said El Mansour Cherkaoui Khalid Essfini Ouled Sidi Baba, you know these cabin-shaped wooden cabins, they were removable, had a door divided in two, the one at the top, we lifted it and kept it open with a bar wood and thus served have protection against the sun. Inside, a kind of wooden bench existed and on the edges, hooks to hang clothes and towels. They rested on a platform that stood on feet and therefore the cabin did not touch the ground. These cabins were colored white and blue with wide transverse stripes. The paint used to paint them was powder. The other particularity of these cabins, they came from a garage located in Derb Berkaoui, the former Rue Jean Bart, currently Abdelkader Ben Drigua, therefore just opposite the main entrance of the Old Lyautey Park which has become Mohamed V. These cabins were manufactured in one of my father’s garages, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, the two Maalems were two Bouchaibs, the Grand Maalem Bouchaib Abbadi who would later be the Grand Master of Work in my father’s workshops and later at Belfakir Moussa, Ahmed and Abderrahman, as well as Mokhtar. Grand Maalem Bouchaib Abadi is the Grandfather of Driss Allah ya rahmou and Abdallah El Khaoua and the other Maalem Bouchaib Chorfi, the uncle of Si Mohamed Hadidi of Derb Berkaoui.It should be noted that the all-direction coaches of my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had the cabin built with a frame, including the frames and the windows and the doors. Allah ya Rhamhoum wa jallil alihoum Ghofrane. I spent my childhood painting the walls of our garages with these famous paints, the water was taken from a well located in the Dwiriya behind our house. I limit myself to these echoes of summer chronicles of my Father’s businesses for the moment. Here is a bit of family history mixed with the memory of our common city and our collective memories. 1.7. 17

Perhaps(?) this public transport motor vehicle appearing in the foreground of the previous image (Mazagan) was part of the fleet of the Mazagan company known as Transports SERGEANT , which mainly operated connections on the Casablanca-Mogador axis … Attachments:

There was also a transport company called BERGERON which provided connections between Casablanca and Mogador… company located at 83 route de Médiouna in Casablanca… Attachments:
I have long believed that the transport company MOLLA.J (Minerva cars) well known in OUDJDA only provided connections on the Casablanca-Oujda-Oran axis … with correspondence on Ouezzane and Tangier … Attachments:

Mazagan Entrepreneurial Value Modernizers
Moulay Said Bencherki, a man of Doukkalais stature, respected for his physical strength and strength of character as well as through his success as an international trader of export products from the port of Mazagan. Heriya in its entire commercial destiny and job and value creation niche for the entire city of Mazagan / El Jadida was grateful for the export-oriented entrepreneurial actions of Moulay Said Bencherki which in turn facilitated other traders such as, among others, Serghini, Mesnaoui and Mekouar for example, access to large British and French companies (Marseille, Manchester, Gibraltar, etc.) for importing sugar,
Moulay Said Bencherki and Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui not only exchanged between them the good things of daily quality life, they were bound in the complicity of respect and sincere brotherhood to such an extent that they decided that their next son will be respectively the bearer of their first name.
As a result, Moulay Ahmed Bencherki currently bears since birth the name of my Father such as Sidi Ahmed Bencherki, while on my side I bear the name and nickname of his Father Moulay Said, indeed all the jdidis who know me closely and who saw me grow up call me Moulay Said, just another person of great renown in the history of football and Diffaa Hassani Jadidi and Rachad Club of El Jadida had this same name before I was born and I speak here by Moulay Said Hamri.
This shows how much Moulay Said Bencherki was appreciated in business circles as well as in the district that brought us all together, the Sfa – Derb Berkaoui district.
As a result, a deep and tight bond existed between Moulay Said Bencherki and Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui which was so authentic in sincerity, that when I was born, Moulay Said Bencherki brought a sheep and gave me the name of Said with the nickname of Moulay Said . My Father added El Mansour as a symbol of the ongoing struggle for the independence of Morocco and in homage to Sultan Ahmed El Mansour who was the beacon illuminating the dynasty of Saadians of Amazigh and Berber origin as was my Father’s Mother, Lalla Awiche bent Bouziane de Hawamate of one of the 7 Saints of the City of Marrakech, in this case Abdellah el Ghazouani known by the nickname of “Moul El Ksour,” the founder of the Zaouïa in the “El Ksour” district,
I would tell this journey with Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui My Father Tghamada bi rahmatih.
My Father during a visit – Ziyara that we had undertaken in Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich – that later I understood why this visit in the depths of the forest of the mountains of Jbala where no road led to the sanctuary. We walked for a whole day and at that time Guardia Civil was still present as a symbol of Spain in the north. We had traveled the North with a Renault Quatre Chevaux with the engine behind and it was a Cadillac for me or a miniature Royce Rolls.
My family and I had a very close relationship with Hajr Nhal and Northern Morocco and Tangier, I will write this entire story one day Inchallah while waiting here for a part with the Sufi Saint that my Father and the Lodge and the Cherkaoui Brotherhood in as a Sufi considered one of them … Read More
Years later, I actually fully grasped the reason for this pilgrimage, since Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich was a disciple of the Tarika Tasaouf of the Cherkawa – and very early in the morning, in freezing temperatures, we were sitting on the ground covered with plates of cork and in front of us a beacon of 4 corners erected with stones from the surrounding mountains, in no way cut but only chosen according to the flatness of their shape and placed on top of each other thus enclosing a large tree of cork and in the middle, a orifice acting as a window to see the inside of this colossal tower, intriguing by its solidity and balance by its disparate rock stones.
My Father explained to me that the descendants of Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich had tried several times to build a Mausoleum but each time before finishing it, the whole building collapsed at night and that this tree went up in the middle of the tomb like a surface response to effectively prevent them from starting construction again.
In fact, my Father specified that Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich had repeatedly advised his disciples and heirs not to build him a Mausoleum but to cover it with what had accompanied him in his meditations and prayers. His tomb was actually perched on a peak of one of the mountains and had a panoramic view of the rest of the surrounding ranges. of acceptance of divine right on ephemeral material. In these mountainous corridors, the humble addressed their God and found their way to Sufi Cherkawa serenity.
In this desired solitude, the love of the Divine was the end of all existence. In this contemplation of the surrounding nature, Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich found refuge to lead his prayers and from his rejection of any celebration which should simply be reserved for powerful and beyond its own existential territory as the direct and eternal attachment of the Rouh Sufiya. This window had wrought iron which resembled the great buildings of medieval castles. My Father sat by my side and both of them in a straight suit in the posture out of respect and frozen by the freezing cold and by the imposing presence of the spirit of Moulay Abdessalam ben Mchich.
In this spiritual reverence, my Father continued to ask me in a very low voice saying to me:
“Wlidi, look in the skylight-window, do you see anything? »
I answered him all the time, yes, a cork oak tree, a candid answer from a child who was wise and respectful of his Father and the peaceful surroundings. No children were around, only the rocks and the projecting points of the oaks and the mountains which wove in the clear blue horizon the image of a continuation of the teeth of a rocky and verdant saw.
My Father had leaned towards me and from closer and in a low voice, clear and scathing in its content whispered in my ear:
“ Wlidi, take a good look through the bars of this window, take a good look, there is a Lion inside. »
I jumped on my seat but my Father comforted me and told me that it was the projection of this Great Sufi Man.
In fact, it was also a greeting from a disciple of the Cherkaoui who wanted to mark our visit to the Peaks of these Mountains with a majestic presence and who greeted my Father and his Son as the descendants of his masters and thus wanted to preserve the lineage in thought as in the paternal and common memory between Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich and Sidi Mhamed Cherki through our presence.
We were the guests of a Lion who in fact, for me, as my Father’s guest I considered this presence as a blessing from the True Lion that it was My Father who reflected his image in the Oukouf of Sadat. The night before another revelation in the fire was also ours. Another time I will tell the details. Since that time and for years to come before crossing the seas, I could reduce the tension of the fire on the body and several times I accomplished such an appeasement for the cousins and cousins of Marrakech. May God keep us on the straight path of the Baraka of our ancestors and ancestors.
From the Rif and Jballa Mountains of Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich to the Great Wall of China
ActiveSaid El Mansour Cherkaoui Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchiche and Abdessalam Cherkaoui: It must be added to this that My Brother was named Abdessalam with the nickname Azhar by My Father in reference to Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich who was also a disciple of the Zawiya Soufiya of the Cherkawa and the name of Abdessalam Cherkaoui must also come from such affiliation and identification of all Cherkaoui. Rahima Allah Mawtana Sabikine. 7y _
Raouf Fatna Si Nhali was a Great Friend and Close to My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, he took me to his house opposite the Belhamdouniya Souk Lakdim Mosque and also my Father and I met Si Nhaili often with Bouchrit who like Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui were all 3 owners of Transit approvals. They met with my presence, also Ouled Wahrani at the two offices which served as counters for the coaches behind the Port of Mazagan and just in front of Madame Dufour’s house which was just behind the Paris Cinema and between a Hangar on the right and the workshop of Ouled Wahrani and on the right the garage of Bouchrit. If Hhali dressed in the Turkish way, with the red tarbouch and the jellaba and sometimes with an apron and always Tarbouch while Bouchrit dressed with Serwal Kandrisi,
In reality, it was my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui who started the business of Nhali and Bouchrit, since my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui had been the pioneer of Public Transport and especially that in Morocco and Mazagan, there was a continual shortage of spare parts for coaches which were always imported in the skeletal form of chassis, driver’s seat, engine and bonnet, gearbox, fenders, axle and rear axle, exhaust and 4 tires mounted.
The Second World War had accentuated this lack of parts and my father was thus led to create a local substitution for this decline in the importation of mechanical products. The scrap dealers of Judaic origin were no longer sufficient to supply the demand of Muslim and Judaic transporters. This was thus applied, considering that the priority of imports of mechanical products were reserved first for military needs and companies belonging to the authorities of the French Protectorate and associated Europeans. Thus, my Father developed a larger foundry and increased the production of his workshops which until this period produced only for the own needs of his coaches and cars.
he made the spare parts for the engine and the axles and rear axles and also the cabin, the seats and later reread the tires of the coaches.
My Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui used 5 garages in Derb Berkaoui to do this mechanical, bodywork and upholstery work.
My Father used to own Packard car and Rio Royal and the doors will open from the middle to the right.
When you open the back door, there is a room between the back seat and the front seat given that the back trunk that open as a box, it was flat that you open the led from the top as rectangular box.
At the front on the both side of the engine, on each side what we call – the wings / les wings – two tires existed while at the front of the car headlight were like and we called them a half of an egg chromed while the bumper had double lines of chromed metal.
The hood, when you opened the two folding pieces, they will fold like two wings.
The tires had wires too. The wiper were fixed on the top of window shield.
Notre Père, Notre Ami, Notre Maalem – Maître Professionnel, Notre Maître de Stage et Notre Premier Cours de Pensée: Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui.
Les activités entrepreneuriales de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui furent multiples et diversifiées dans leur contenu comme dans leurs devenir tout en ayant une finalité de bien être de construction d’un environnement harmonieux de partage du bien.
L’une des premières activités entrepreneuriales fut et reste la particularité de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui d’avoir été et d’être le Premier Marocain Musulman a faire démarrer les transports communs et d’avoir établi les premières structures locales pour la construction des cars au Maroc respectivement a Bab Ftouh a Marrakech et a El Jadida.
En premier a Marrakech, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui entreprit d’introduire les transports communs qui par la suite se concrétisèrent aussi par l’acquisition et la gestion d’un Garage situé sur la Rue de la Koutoubia a Marrakech [Place Jamaa El Fna] et qui servit pour plusieurs décennies comme lieu de stationnement des cars en partance pour Casablanca et pour Mazagan – El Jadida et d’autres villes marocaines.

Ce voyage fut en partie pour l’aller réalisé avec et en compagnie de Moulay Said Bencherki, son meilleur ami et “beau frère” par relation maritale fut son compagnon en Egypte et a la Mecque.
De Jérusalem, cette ville Sainte pour nous tous, mon Père Haj Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui continua son périple vers les pays de la Grand Syrie de l’Epoque afin de visiter les grandes Ecoles du Soufisme Orientale.
L’un des maillons de l’héritage de la Tarika Cherkawiya fi Tassawouf fut et demeure pour moi, mon propre Père dont voici une rapide ébauche d’une existence qui a respecté les attributs des Cherkawa et cela dans l’espace couvert comme dans la correspondance de la générosité offerte.
Voila une brève introduction d’un des piliers de cette tradition issue d’une Zaouia perdue le plat pays de Tadla et couvrant les pied de l’Atlas et servant de lieu d’un Soufisme “Félin” sans frontières, ni montagnes, ni océans, juste une connexion spirituelle transcendante les limites de l’Être même pour rendre l’invocation du Wahid Ahad un amour infinie sans limite.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui …..pour préserver cet héritage, mon propre fils porte le même prénom et le même nom.
– Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui – Moulay Said Bencherki –
Modernisateurs de la Valeur Entrepreneuriale de Mazagan
Moulay Said Bencherki, un homme de taille Doukkalais, respecté pour sa force physique et sa force de caractere ainsi que a travers sa réussite comme négociant international des produits d’exportation du port de Mazagan. Heriya dans son entière destinée commerciale et créneau de création d’emploi et de valeur pour toute la ville de Mazagan / El Jadida était reconnaissante des actions entrepreneuriales tournées vers l’exportation de Moulay Said Bencherki. En retour, ces actions entrepreneuriales de Moulay Said Bencherki facilitaient aux autres commerçants comme entre autres, Serghini, Mesnaoui et Mekouar par exemple, l’accès aux grandes sociétés britanniques et françaises (Marseille, Manchester, Gibraltar…) pour l’importation du sucre, du thé et des ustensiles pour la préparation du thé manufacturés a Manchester (Angleterre) par Richard Wright qui devint le symbole de la haute qualité sous le sobriquet de Rite, tel que le Babor, la Siniya et Berad Rite.
Moulay Said Bencherki et Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui n’échangeaient pas seulement entre eux les bonnes choses de la vie quotidienne de qualité, ils étaient liés dans la complicité du respect et de la fraternité sincère a tel point qu’ils décidèrent que leur prochain fils sera respectivement le porteur de leur prénom.
De ce fait, Moulay Ahmed Bencherki porte actuellement depuis sa naissance le nom de mon Père tel que Sidi Ahmed Bencherki, alors que de mon cote je portes le nom et le surnom de son Père Moulay Said, effectivement tous les jdidis qui me connaissent de prés et qui m’ont vit grandir parmi eux, y compris mes co-equipiers dans les differentes disciplines sportives m’appellent Moulay Said. En fait, dans toute la ville de Mazagan-El Jadida, il existait juste une autre personne de grand renom dans l’histoire du football et du Diffaa Hassani Jadidi et du Rachad Club d’El Jadida qui portait avant ma naissance ce même prénom et la je parles ici de Moulay Said Hamri.
Ceci montre a quel point Moulay Said Bencherki était apprécié dans les milieux des affaires comme dans le quartier qui nous rassemblait tous, le quartier Sfa – Derb Berkaoui.
De ce fait, un lien profond et serré existait entre Moulay Said Bencherki et Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui qui fut tellement authentique dans la sincérité, que lors de ma naissance, Moulay Said Bencherki apporta un mouton et me donna le nom de Said avec le surnom de Moulay Said. Mon Père ajouta El Mansour comme symbole de la lutte qui prenait place et etait en cours pour l’indépendance du Maroc.

L’autre référence fut l’hommage au Sultan Ahmed El Mansour, le phare éclairant la dynastie des Saadiens d’origine Amazigh et Berbère comme fut la Mère de mon Père, Lalla Awiche bent Bouziane de Hawamate de l’un des 7 Saints de la Ville de Marrakech, en l’occurrence Abdellah el Ghazouani connu sous le surnom de “Moul El Ksour,” le fondateur de la Zaouïa dans le quartier “d’El Ksour”, décédé en 1528 non loin du quartier qui servait de forteresse pour la dynastie des Saadiens appelée la Kasbah et ou sont enterrés effectivement les Mlouks [les tombeaux des Rois] Saadiens.

Ouled Mourrakouch – Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui – Ouled Bahja Rajoul d’El Jadida de Cœur, Doukkali et Amazigh par Alliance Familiale
Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui est né a Derb Hentata, Moul Kssour, le lieu ou commença les premieres constructions de la Ville de Marrakech, juste sous l’ombre de la Grande Koutoubia et en face de l’entrée de Sidi Abdelaziz, Massine et le centre commercial de la vraie et première Médina de Marrakech, a savoir en premier Jamaa El Fna, Bab Ftouh et Samarine. On ne peut être localisé plus que cela dans le noyau central de la Médina Ancienne de Marrakech.
Moulay Ahmed Ben Haj Madani Cherkaoui, a part Laghzaoui, il fut le premier entrepreneur dans les transports communs et dans d’autres correspondants et complémentaires secteurs. Un nationaliste marocain et un contributeur dans la dissémination du savoir et de l’éducation en faveur de la création d’une avant-garde souche dirigeante issue des couches populaires et cela avant l’heure de l’indépendance du Maroc.
Moulay Ahmed demeure un pionnier ayant une vision constructive et “dévelopementaliste” cherchant a promouvoir le progrès des transports et la construction de voies ferroviaires liaisonnant El Jadida a Casablanca et même Marrakech et d’autres villes limitrophes comme des bases d’infrastructures pour l’émancipation des enclaves et pour faciliter l’intégration régionale pour briser le carcan imposé par la politique sélective des autorités du Protectorat Français qui favorisaient certaines villes intérieures et leur desserte avec une poignée de villes situées sur la façade maritime.
Les autres attributs et contributions de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui dans la réduction de la pauvreté et par les aides considérables qu’il avait déployé pour limiter la propagation et les destructions des vies humaines par les maladies contagieuses ayant affectées dans le milieu des années quarante des pans entiers de la population régionale ainsi que ses propres financements des membres du mouvement national d’indépendance du Maroc ne peuvent qu’être cités dans des volumes plus dense que l’espace de cette page. Les ramifications de tous les engagements régionaux et nationaux et même internationaux (Egypte, Palestine, Iraq et la Mecque) peuvent faire a eux seul faire l’objet d’un autre livre.
En effet, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui a également développé un réseau qui s’étend du Maroc à l’Irak a travers ses rencontres et ses contacts directs avec les étudiants marocains vivant en Egypte, en Palestine, en Irak et a La Mecque, et cela pour le but de développer une prise de conscience et des ramifications locales pour le soutien de la question de l’indépendance nationale.

NOTE DE L’AUTEUR:
J’ai élaboré un second article complémentaire de celui-ci sur Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, intitulé:
Le Fondateur de la Lignée des Cherkaoui au Maroc Sidi Mhamed Cherki [Boujad]
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui appartient a la partie la plus révolutionnaire parmi les Cherkaoui, puisque tous les Cherkawa de Marakech sont des descendants directs de ceux exilés par le Souverain a Marrakech vu leur affiliation avec les mouvements de revendication et de protestation contre les abus des représentants locaux du pouvoir. Ce fait historique avait donc été la raison principale de la présence a Marrakech de tout le coté de ma Famille paternelle et donc pour des siècles, ces Cherkaoui de la Révolte furent des natifs et des résidents de Marrakech et cela jusqu’à ce jour. Ce trait de caractère avait accompagné plusieurs Cherkaoui dans l’identification de leurs personnalités dans le rejet de l’abus et de l’absurde de la négligence sociale.
La conscience de la présence de tels manquements au devoir de faire du bien, le déracinement de leur terroir ancestral et la distance avec les lieux de l’enterrement de leurs ancêtres et son espace spirituel imposèrent a plusieurs hommes et femmes Cherkaoui de Marrakech d’œuvrer pour la création de conditions conductives au partage et l’extension du bien pour le peuple qui est leur. Cette qualité de vouloir trouver la lumière dans l’obscurité des actions destructives des autres est une des caractéristiques fondamentales du Soufisme de la Zawiya Cherkawiya.
Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui était pleinement consciencieux et porteur de tels emblèmes, symboles et croyances qu’il avait traduit en actions autour de lui et cela pour les autres, pour des inconnue (es) et même des étrangers partout ou son pied foulait le sol tant au Maroc que dans les autres pays.
En effet, tout le temps, il me répétait cette expression:
“Faker fi Kheir, Amel Kheir, Wa Afaal Kheir wa Saadatek ya Faael al Kheir”
Aussi, il composa mon prénom de Said El Mansour et cela pour une seule et unique raison qui est directement distillée par sa haute croyance dans le Devenir de la Nation Marocaine. Un autre aspect du caractère visionnaire de mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.

Moulay Ahmed demeure un pionnier ayant une vision constructive et “dévelopementaliste” cherchant a promouvoir le progrès des transports et la construction de voies ferroviaires reliant El Jadida à Marrakech et d’autres villes limitrophes comme des bases d’infrastructures pour l’émancipation des enclaves et pour faciliter l’intégration régionale pour briser le carcan imposé par la politique sélective des autorités Françaises une division régionale basée sur des besoins de contrôle stratégique militaire et d’extraction et d’exportation des produits autochtones favorisant ainsi certaines villes et leur desserte avec quelques ports et les villes adjacentes situées sur la façade maritime.
Les autres attributs et contributions de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui concernaient entre autres la réduction de la pauvreté ayant été causées par l’appropriation des terres tribales par les colons et l’exode rurale conséquente. Moulay Ahmed avait aussi consenti et dirigé des aides considérables qu’il a avait déployé pour limiter la propagation et les destructions des vies humaines par les maladies contagieuses ayant affectées dans le milieu des années quarante des pans entiers de la population régionale des Doukkala et Abda. Il préconisa l’adoption des enfants de familles touchées et vulnérables a ces fléaux. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avait aussi orienté de son propre gré et sans que lui demande ses propres directs et indirects financements des membres du mouvement national d’indépendance du Maroc.
A la fin des années trente, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avait dédié auparavant une partie de ses garages pour la localisation et l’emplacement d’une Medersa d’apprentissage de l’Arabe Classique et du Coran. Il fut venir un Fakih/Taleb Si Abbas de la région de Doukkala et lui donna une maison pour qu’il puisse instruire ses enfants et les enfants de son voisinage et de tous les quartiers environnants.
L’utilisation d’une large partie de son propre patrimoine foncier et cela tout en procurant le financement de ses propres fonds pour la construction d’une Ecole pouvant servir à l’éducation des enfants et aussi pour les campagnes alphabétisation des adultes et surtout des femmes. En effet, vu le déferlement des populations des régions rurales sur Mazagan, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui décida de lancer un chantier pour la construction d’une Ecole primaire et secondaire qu’il désigna par Hassaniya en célébration de Moulay Hassan Alaoui qui était encore un Prince Héritier Adolescent. Cette Ecole existe encore de nos jours dans la même rue ou avant il s’était fait déjà construire sa demeure et qui nous appartient toujours.
Il reste beaucoup à citer des œuvres de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui dont l’étendue ne peut être citée que dans des volumes plus denses que l’espace de cette page.
En deçà de tout cela, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui a également développé un réseau qui s’étend du Maroc à l’Irak a travers ses rencontres et ses contacts directs avec les étudiants marocains vivant en Egypte, en Palestine, en Irak et a La Mecque, et cela pour le but de développer une prise de conscience et des ramifications locales pour le soutien de la question de l’indépendance nationale.
لما تولى الحجاج ابن يوسف الثقفي شؤون العراق، أمر مرؤوسه أن يطوف بالليل، فمن وجده بعد العشاء ضرب عنقه، فطاف ليلة فوجد ثلاثة صبيان فأحاط بهم وسألهم: من أنتم، حتى خالفتم أوامر الحجاج؟
فقال الأول: أنا ابن الذي دانت الرقاب له..مابين مخزومها وهاشمها تأتي إليه الرقاب صاغرة..يأخذ من مالها ومن دمها فأمسك عن قتله، وقال لعله من أقارب الأمير.
وقال الثاني: أنا ابن الذي لا ينزل الدهر قدره..وإن نزلت يوماً فسوف تعود ترى الناس أفواجاً إلى ضوء ناره .فمنهم قيام حولها وقعود فتأخر عن قتله وقال: لعله من أشراف العرب.
وقال الثالث: أنا ابن الذي خاض الصفوف بعزمه..وقوّمها بالسيف حتى استقامت ركاباه لا تنفك رجلاه عنهما..إذا الخيل في يوم الكريهة ولّت فترك قتله
وقال: لعله من شجعان العرب.
فلما أصبح رفع أمرهم إلى الحجاج، فأحضرهم وكشف عن حالهم،فإذا الأول ابن حجام، والثاني ابن الخباز، والثالث ابن حائك. فتعجب الحجاج من فصاحتهم، وقال لجلسائه: علّموا أولادكم الأدب، فلولافصاحتهم لضربت أعناقهم، ثم أطلقهم وأنشد: كن إبن من شئت واكتسب أدباً…يغنيك محموده عن النسب
إن الفتى من يقول هاأنذا…ليس الفتى من يقول كان أبي

Transports Cherkaoui: L’Histoire des Transports a Mazagan c’est l’Histoire des Transports Cherkaoui – C’est aussi l’Histoire des Transports Publics Interurbains au Maroc
Premier Musulman Constructeur Industriel d’Autocars et Transporteur en Commun au Maroc entre 1920 – 1948, plus tard a travers des donations aux membres de sa proche famille y compris son fils adoptif, Feu Hbibi Mustapha Raiss.
Mon Prénom et mon Nom sont: Said El Mansour Cherkaoui Mes deux Filles s’appellent: Habiba Ait Youssi Cherkaoui et Bouteina Ait Youssi Cherkaoui. Mon Fils s’appelle: Moulay Ahmed Ait Youssi Cherkaoui Mon Prénom est Said El Mansour et je suis né en 1950 et fils de Habiba Ait Youssi Taleb Hmad (Confederation et Nation Amazigh des Ait Youssi) et de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui (Cherkawa de Marrakech et Zawiya Cherkaoui, Boujad)
Mon prénom et sa composition de Said et El Mansour furent choisis avec raison et avec un but précis par mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui qui sont ★ l’Indépendance de notre Royaume du Maroc ★ Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui voulait que ces deux qualificatifs deviennent la designation de notre Patrie Nationale construite sur Bonheur = Saad = Said Victoire = Nassr = El Mansour
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avait toujours donné les prénoms de mes Frères et mes Sœurs avec une intention et une métaphore précises au delà de la désignation propre mais comme une identité culturelle, politique et spirituelle qui désigne et concerne le Maroc et ses particularités historiques.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avait même établi des liens au delà de nos frontières avec les esprits qui voulaient l’indépendance du Maroc et cela même au Caire en Egypte, où il s’est rendit en 1930.
★ Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui est un Nationaliste de l’intérieur comme de l’extérieur jusqu’à son départ éternel en 1978 ★ Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, celui qui œuvra toute sa vie adulte directement pour l’Indépendance du Maroc tant sur le plan social, économique que éducationnel et familial envers la nation marocaine.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui contribua directement avec son argent et ses biens immobiliers dans le rehaussement et l’avancement de la cause de l’indépendance du Maroc et cela par plusieurs actions directes et secrètes soit a El Jadida, a Marrakech, a Fes et a Casablanca.
Cette flamme de l’indépendance du Maroc inspira mon défunt Frère Si Driss de joindre des groupes secrets de la lutte pour l’indépendance, notamment a travers en premier les Kechafas et le mouvement des Scouts qui servaient de liaison pour la formation des esprits des jeunes indépendantistes. Les actions secrètes pour l’indépendance de mon Frère Si Driss lui coûteront a la fin de la decennie de 1940 plus que 2 ans d’emprisonnement et de travaux forcés dans la construction des routes autour d’Ifrane sous la neige.
Durant l’Administration du Protectorat Français au Maroc par le Général Alphonse Juin de mai 1947 à juillet 1951, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui subit toutes les vexations possibles avec même un emprisonnement a Marrakech (Glaoui fut le Pacha avec son Chancelier Haj Idar) et des accusations de toute sortes préfabriquées par les acolytes et les collaborateurs de l’Administration Coloniale.
A Marrakech, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui finançait et octroyait des fonds et la logistique de transport pour les membres de l’organisation de la Main Noire, la vraie qui luttaient clandestinement pour une authentique indépendance du Maroc avant qu’elle ne sombra dans les déchirements internes lorsque ses attentats commencèrent a virer et a viser d’une façon inconsistante avec les objectifs de l’indépendance nationale. Selon, mon Père, cette organisation en principe militante pour l’indépendance, fut par la suite manipulée pour en faire un outil de zizanie et d’enrichissement qui oblitèrent l’organisation de l’intérieur notamment par des déchirements dans le mouvement de l’indépendance nationale.
La Main Noire commença ainsi a liquider tout ce qui leur paraît être des collaborateurs ou des soutiens directs de la présence coloniale au Maroc et même ceux qui luttaient contre cette liaison avec l’Extrême Droite formée par des Colons Jaloux de leurs intérêts au Maroc. Une grande partie es Colons terriens et entrepreneurs voulait a tout prix maintenir leur présence exploitante des vestiges du Protectorat malgré que la France a subit les contrecoups de la domination nazie.
Notre cousin directe, un Cherkaoui de la Branche de Sidi M’hamed et Moulay Abdessalam, connu sous le nom de Bayoud a Marrakech fut une victime directe de ces luttes intestines au sein de l’organisation de la Main Noire.
Nos propriétés soit a Marrakech ou a El Jadida et même a Casablanca, tel que les bureaux de ventes de tickets de transportation furent souvent les lieux de rencontres et de réunions des chefs de file des résistants dans ces villes.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui a ses propres frais, utilisaient ses voitures et cars de transport pour faire venir de Fès, de Marrakech, de Rabat et de Casablanca les familles des résistants et des nationalistes emprisonnés a la Prison Agricole de Ader dans la banlieue d’El Jadida. Mon Père et ma Mère offraient aussi le gîte, l’habillement et l’alimentation a ces familles et a leurs époux emprisonnés dans cette prison. Ainsi, plusieurs membres du Premier Gouvernement Marocain sous Mohammed V sont passés et ont bénéficié du support direct et de l’hospitalité de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et de Habiba Taleb Hmad Ait Youssi. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui fut puni par l’Administration Coloniale pour ses affiliations, ses efforts et ses réalisations et pour avoir aussi un Fils luttant directement pour l’indépendance en lui prenant la plus grande partie de ses biens, les agréments de transports toutes directions
Lorsqu’on demandait a notre Père pourquoi que souvent il s’habillait avec le tarbouch watani et la djellaba, une veste, une chemise et la cravate [le style de Sid Mohammed V] : “Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui répondait toujours: “J’emmène avec moi Sidi Mohammed V (Rahimahou Allah) partout ou je vais.”
Le jour de son départ pour la Mecque, il ajouta ceci: “Je vais rendre Visite a Sidi Mohammed (SALa Allahou alihe Wa Salam), on est des Marocains et suiveurs de Mohammed partout ou on va” Légende de la photo: Photo Prise par Si Ahmed Bouafi, Rahimahou Allah, Époux de ma Soeur Lalla Khadija Cherkaoui Appareil de photo: Voigtlander Cette photo de mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui habillé comme Sidi Mohammed V fut prise a l’Aéroport Mohammed V a Casablanca en 1970 lors du voyage de ma Mère et mon Père vers la Mecque, via Alger et Tunis. Feu Roi Mohamed V et Rabbi Messas au Maroc,
Notre Maison était décorée de portraits géants de Mohammed V, et mon Père tenait toujours a s’habiller dans les grandes occasions comme dans ses voyages a l’Étranger comme s’habillait Mohammed V. Une des ses photos dans l’aéroport Mohamed V de Nouasser et cela lors de son départ pour la Mecque en compagnie de ma Mère, il fut effectivement habillé comme Mohamed V:
Elegance Marocaine, Habitude Culturelle ou bien Fierté Nationaliste?
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui est tout cela en plus qu’il se sentait toujours qu’il représentait un esprit Royal et Souverain dans le sens Chérifien et Chérif du terme.
Lorsqu’on demandait a notre Père pourquoi, il s’habillait de la sorte vu qu’il prenait l’avion:
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui répondait toujours: “J’emmène avec moi Sidi Mohammed V (Rahimahou Allah) pour aller rendre Visite a Sidi Mohammed (SALa Allahou alihe Wa Salam), on est des Marocains et suiveurs de Mohammed partout ou on va”
Au nom de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et de Habiba Taleb Hmad et ses enfants et leurs descendants, nous demandons que Justice doit être faite et rétablie pour corriger les abus et les spoliations Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui a subi de la part de l’Administration Coloniale au Maroc et nous demandons le retour de ses agréments a ses héritiers légitimes.

Notre Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui,
مولاي أحمد الشرقاوي
اللهمّ يمّن كتابه، ويسّر حسابه، وثقّل بالحسنات ميزانه، وثبّت على الصّراط أقدامه، وأسكنه في أعلى الجنّات، بجوار حبيبك ومصطفاك صلّى الله عليه وسلم.
اللهم ارحمه واجعل قبره روض من رياض الجنة
Moulay Said Cherkaoui, Abdellah Taleb Hmad Lyoussi, mon Oncle et le Père de Khalid Lyoussi Journal — at Aéroport Mohammed V – Nouasseur, Casablanca, Morocco.A travers ces principes directeurs, les activités entrepreneuriales de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui furent multiples et diversifiées dans leur contenu comme dans leurs devenir tout en ayant une finalité de bien être de construction d’un environnement harmonieux de partage du bien.
L’une des premières fut et reste la particularité de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui d’avoir été et d’être le Premier Marocain Musulman a faire démarrer les transports communs et d’avoir établi les premières structures locales pour la construction des cars au Maroc respectivement a Bab Ftouh et a El Jadida.
En premier a Marrakech, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui entreprit d’introduire les transports communs qui par la suite se concrétisèrent aussi par l’acquisition et la gestion d’un Garage situé sur la Rue de la Koutoubia a Marrakech [Place Jamaa El Fna] et qui servit pour plusieurs décennies comme lieu de stationnement des cars en partance pour Casablanca et pour Mazagan – El Jadida et d’autres villes marocaines.
Par la suite, je vais publier plus sur la contribution de cet Homme dans la prospérité de Marrakech et d’El Jadida et même de Casablanca et d’autres régions et confins en partant de Mazagan – El Jadida et des Doukkala comme bases d’opérations et cela durant son temps et ses activités nationalistes et sociales correspondantes.
En effet, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui était aussi un participant et un mécène au sein des groupes de résistance a Marrakech et a El Jadida.
Parmi les réalisations de notre Père Moulay Ahmed fut effectivement la matérialisation de son désir de préparer une nouvelle génération de marocains indépendants a tous les niveaux et en premier a celui du savoir, de la connaissance et de l’Éducation.
Pour cette raison, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui construisit sur son propre terrain et avec ses propres fonds financiers l’Ecole Hassania dans notre propre quartier de Naissance a El Jadida et qui est encore en plein essor jusqu’à nos jours.
En tant que sa propre progéniture et sa mémoire vivante présente, je ne peux que saluer une telle vision qui défia le temps et demeure actuellement et a ce jour, une validité de la pensée concernant un réel, robuste et authentique développement des ressources humaines de notre ville, notre région et du Maroc. Plusieurs personnalités littéraires, politiques et sociales de Mazagan – El Jadida et Des Doukkala empruntèrent le parcours de cette Ecole Hassania et réussirent a faire valoir leurs capacités et leurs potentiels intellectuels.
Ceci dit et pour l’instant, je me contente de vous livrer ce bref aperçu sur mon Illustre Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et cela sous la forme présente.
Que Allah ya Rham Walidaina Ajmaeen wa man Sabakana mina Mouaminine Salihine, Ameen ya Rab Alameen.
Bureau de la CTM – Mazagan – Face au Port et de l’autre coté de la Gare Routière et des Bureaux de Transports CherkaouiJe connais très bien cette place, j’ai travaillé dans les cars de mon Père Transports Cherkaoui toutes Directions.
C’est mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui qui a initié la construction de cette gare routière qu’il voulait être a coté de la CTM.
Pour preuve que mon Père construisit cette Gare, les 3 premiers bureaux dans cette Gare qui furent construit les premiers étaient gérées par mon Père et c’est là ou effectivement stationnaient nos cars et cela jusqu’à la fin des années cinquante avec Bouchaib Askri qui vendaient nos billets pour le voyage et les deux premiers bureaux jusqu’au déménagement a la nouvelle gare du terrain de Ouled Chentoufiya.
Transports Cherkaoui Premier Musulman Marocain Constructeur Industriel d’Autocars Premier Musulman Marocain Transporteur en Commun Toutes Direction au Maroc entre 1920-1948
Périple avec Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
Mon Père lors d’une visite – Ziyara que nous avions entrepris a Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich – que plus tard j’ai compris pourquoi cette visite dans les fins fonds de la foret des montagnes de Jbala ou aucune route ne menait au sanctuaire. Nous avons marché toute une journée et a ce moment Guardia Civil était encore présente comme symbole de l’Espagne dans le nord. Nous avions parcouru le Nord avec une Quatre Chevaux Renault avec le moteur derrière. C’etait une Cadillac pour moi ou une miniature Royce Rolls.
Des années après, j’ai effectivement saisi pleinement la raison de ce pèlerinage, puisque Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich était un disciple de la Tarika Tasaouf des Cherkawa – et très tôt le matin, une température glaciale, nous étions assis sur le sol couvert de plaques de liège et devant nous une balise de 4 coins érigée avec des pierres des montagnes environnantes, nullement taillées mais seulement choisies en fonction de la plateure de leur forme et posées les unes sur les autres enclavant ainsi un grand arbre de liégé et au milieu, un orifice faisant fonction de fenêtre pour voir le dedans de cette tour colossale, intrigante par la solidité et l’équilibre par ses pierres rocheuses disparates.
Mon Père m’expliqua que les descendants de Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich avaient essayé plusieurs fois de bâtir un Mausolée mais chaque fois avant de le terminer, tout l’édifice s’écroulait la nuit et que cet arbre remonta au milieu de la tombe comme une réponse a la surface pour effectivement les empêcher de recommencer la construction. En fait, mon Père précisait que Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich avait maintes fois durant sa vie conseillé a ses disciples et héritiers de ne point lui construire un Mausolée mais de le couvrir avec ce qui l’avait accompagné dans ses méditations et prières. Son tombeau était effectivement perché sur une cime d’une des montagnes et avait une vue panoramique sur le reste des chaines environnantes.
Une vue seule l’esprit peut mesurer l’origine et la béatitude grandiose d’une telle construction naturelle qui fournissait un espace d’acceptation du droit divin sur le matériel éphémère. Dans ce couloirs montagneux, l’humble s’adressait a son Dieu et trouvait son chemin de sérénité Soufi des Cherkawa.
Dans cette solitude voulue l’amour du Divin était la finalité de toute l’existence.
Dans cette contemplation de la nature environnante, Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich trouvait refuge pour conduire ses prières et de son rejet de toute célébration qui devrait être simplement réservée au tout puissant et au delà de son propre territoire existentiel en tant qu’attachement direct et éternel du Rouh Soufiya.
Cette fenêtre avait un fer forgé qui ressemblait les grandes bâtisses des châteaux du Moyen Age. Mon Père assit a mes cotés et tous les deux en tailleur droit dans la posture par respect et figés par le froid glacial et par l’imposante présence de l’esprit de Moulay Abdessalam ben Mchich. Dans cette révérence spirituelle, mon Père continuait de me demander a voix très basse me disant:
«Wlidi, regarde dans la lucarne-fenêtre, est ce que tu vois quelque chose ? »
je lui répondis tout le temps, oui, un arbre de chêne liège, une réponse candide d’un enfant sage et respectueux de son Père et de l’entourage paisible. Aucun enfant n’était autour, seuls les rochers et les pointes saillantes des chênes et des montagnes qui tissaient dans l’horizon bleu clair l’image d’une continuation des dents d’une scie rocheuse et verdoyante.
Mon Père s’était penché vers moi et de plus prés et d’une voix basse, claire et cinglante dans son contenu me chuchota dans l’oreille :
« Regarde bien a travers les barreaux de cette fenêtre, regarde bien, il y a un Lion dedans. »
J’ai sursauté sur ma place mais mon Père me conforta et me disait que c’était la projection de ce Grand Homme Soufi.
En fait, ce fut aussi une salutation d’un disciple des Cherkaoui qui voulait marquer notre visite des Cimes de ces Montagnes d’une présence majestueuse et qui saluait mon Père et son Fils comme les descendants de ses maîtres et voulait ainsi préserver la lignée dans la pensée comme dans la mémoire paternelle et commune entre Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich et Sidi Mhamed Cherki a travers notre présence.
Nous étions les invités d’un Lion qui en fait, pour moi, en tant qu’invité de mon Père je considérais cette présence comme une bénédiction du Vrai Lion que c’était Mon Père qui reflétait son image dans le Oukouf of Sadate.
La nuit avant une autre révélation dans le feu fut aussi des nôtres. Une autre fois, je raconterais les détails.
Depuis ce temps et pour des années a venir avant de traverser les mers, je pouvais réduire la tension du feu sur le corps et plusieurs fois j’ai accompli un tel apaisement pour les cousins et les cousines de Marrakech.
Que Dieu nous garde dans le droit chemin de la Baraka de nos aïeuls et nos ancêtres.
Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchiche et Abdessalam Cherkaoui: Il faut ajouter a ceci que Mon Frère fut nommé Abdessalam with le surnom de Azhar par Mon Pere en référence a Moulay Abdessalam Ben Mchich qui fut aussi un disciple de la Zawiya Soufiya des Cherkawa et le nom de Abdessalam Cherkaoui doit aussi provenir d’une telle affiliation et identification de tout les Cherkaoui. Rahima Allah Mawtana Sabikine.

Brief Summary on the Bio of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui that happened to be my Wonderful Father used to own Cabanas on the beach that he rented to the Beach-goers-Estivants during the whole year.
Later on, my Father – Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui as the First Moroccan Entrepreneur in the Bus intercity transportation business – long-distance passenger bus services – acquired in the late sixties a Cafe, Hotel and Restaurant in Marrakech, his birthplace. In fact, it is in Marrakech where he launched initially in early 1920’s his first bus venture. He entered the Medina of Marrakech with 10 buses and parked them near the Mosque of Bab Ftouh on the side of the Great Place of Jamaa El Fna to let the Marrakechis – his co-city habitants to see and used his buses and not to travel any more with Caravan and mules. He wanted to modernize and he did the Moroccan means and resources of public transportation.
In fact, on the left side of the same place of Jamaa El Fna at the City of Marrakech, the Cherkaoui Family still owns a space that my Father had used as permanent Garage for his buses and all the buses that connect Marrakech to Mazagan in round-trip.
At Marrakech, I learned how to manage bus transportation operations and hospitality business services. My Father was a complete Encyclopedia of business management in terms of synergistic, horizontal and vertical integration of business development and customer relationship retention before even the concept was taught in the western business schools.
Without any sense of nostalgia or exaggeration or even memory deviation, this kind of innovation brought by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui to the Entrepreneurial History and the Social Evolution of Morocco is just the tip of the iceberg.Première Entreprise Musulmane de Construction d’Autocars au Maroc – 1920-1948
Le Premier Constructeur d’Autocars a Mazagan comme entreprise privée musulmane fut l’oeuvre de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, il importait de France directement des chassis.
Ces Chassis de la Maison Panhard, Minerva, Berliet arrivaient a Casablanca – Port par bateau avec juste le volant un siege temporaire du chauffeur, les ailes, les feux et les phares de devant situes sur le devant du moteur, les ailes de devant ou on pouvait mettre un pneu de chaque coté des pneus de secours, la boite de vitesse, le frein a main, l’axe et le pont arrière, les pare-chocs devant et derrière wa Salate ala nabi.
Tout le reste c’était fabriqué Maison dans nos Garages a Derb Berkaoui et avant cela au niveau ce que l’on appelait Kamra a la sortie de Mazagan sur la route de Marrakech la c’était la première zone industrielle, a la limite des Heriya de la famille Bencherki surtout Moulay Said Bencherki le Père de Ahmed Bencherki.
Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avait aussi formé sous sa direction une grande pléiade de constructeurs de carrosserie a Mazagan y compris Mimoun, Belfakir Moussa, Maalem Bouchaib, Maalem Bouchaib Chorfi, Maalem Larbi Cicklisse Melhaoui, Negache Bouchaib Frère de Ouled Rahal et Zniber, Boucherit, Rahali et son maître d’oeuvre et plein d’autres.
De même, tous ceux qui voulaient faire un metier de Chauffeur d’autocar devrait venir chez Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui pour l’apprentissage non seulement de la conduite mais surtout la mécanique puisque le dépannage sur la route cela n’existait pas. Il fallait réparer sur la route sinon pas d’arrivée.
Alors les Transports Cherkaoui combinaient le Modelage, la construction des Autocars, la Carrosserie, la production des pièces d’Echanges, la Menuiserie, la Peinture, la Mécanique Générale et l’apprentissage Auto-Ecole pour autocars et Camions.
C’est cette capacité de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui d’offrir une telle intégration verticale et horizontale de services et en aval et en amont au niveau de la production industrielle en parallèle aux opérations de transports des voyageurs qui avaient permit une continuelle innovation technique de l’époque au sein de ses initiatives comme elles ont rendu mon Père le Pionnier Marocain Musulman dans les domaines de la Construction Automobile dés la naissance des Transports Publiques inter-villes au Maroc.
Tout cela se passait des le milieu des années 1920 puisque notre maison actuelle avec les anciens garages elle date du milieu des 1920 – début de 1930 la date ou elle fut construite par mon Père et elle existe toujours au Hamouwamate Sfa, Saniate / Derb Berkaoui.
Position du Pneu de Secours et les Portes d’Accès
Porte-Bagage
Les Pneus de Secours sur les Flancs, une référence de ma Mémoire sur le Travail de mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui – Transports Cherkaoui – Mazagan
La différence avec les autocars construit par mon Père étaient au debut mis devant du coté des ailes pour permettre d’avoir deux portes, une de chaque cote de l’autocar.
L’autre alternative et bien plus tard, le pneu de secours fut mis sous le car du coté de l’échelle ou bien sur la face de derrière juste a cote de l’échelle qui mène au porte bagage.
Histoire des Transports a Mazagan, c’est l’Histoire des Transports Cherkaoui l’Histoire des Transports Publics Interurbains au Maroc
Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui est arrivé a Mazagan en 1920 avec des cars qu’il avait a Marrakech, il possédait a cette époque plus que 10 agréments. Il obligea les autorités de Mazagan en ce temps et avec son propre capital aussi, de le laisser construire derrière le port, la première gare routière officielle a Mazagan.
En premier et avant la construction de cette gare, les Cars de mon Père stationnaient devant ou existait le Cinema le Paris et ou existait aussi la Premiere Poste du Maroc et de Mazagan, qui fut inaugurée par Itsshak Brudo dont le nom fut donné a la meme place et ceci en face de la Dar Dariba Kdima, aussi la Première Perception et Maison des Impôts.
Cette place avait donc la poste – je crois que l’on l’appelait Hotel de la Poste – en fait ce nom lui valait bien puisque elle se trouvait a coté des hotels, la présence des cars de mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et de la CTM en ces lieux était importante pour le courrier, les journaux, les paquets et les lettres ainsi que les paiements dus et les marchandise commandées dans les villes, les souks et les villages par lesquels les cars de mon Père et ceux de la CTM transitaient et passaient. Donc les cars de mon Père comme ceux de la CTM étaient ceux qui transportaient le courrier entre les villes et leurs périphéries. *
D’autre part, la construction des hotels autour de cette place, au Café Français et derriere avec l’Hotel de Bordeaux et de Suisse et d’autres autour de cette place, trouvèrent donc la raison de leur location dans cette partie de Mazagan grace aux Cars de la CTM et de mon Père qui apportaient les touristes, les voyageurs et les visiteurs.
Ce que je raconte ici peut être vérifier dans le Ministère des Transports ou le plus gros dossier qui existe dans les archives est le Dossier de Cherkaoui de Mazagan et El Jadida. Toutes les agréments qui date de 1920 – 1930 a Mazagan en tant que des agréments privés sont d’origine de l’appartenance de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, period ni plus ni moins et cela est l’histoire authentique du Maroc non seulement de Mazagan.
Mon Père fut aussi le constructeur du Bureau des transports aussi a Casablanca Derb Omar (ou la chaussée était construite de pavés comme a Paris) et a Rabat Bab Had et a Marrakech en premier Bab Ftouh et Derb Koutoubia a Jammaa el Fna.
Tous les transporteurs Musulmans ayant existé a Mazagan et ailleurs sont venu après mon Père en tant que Premier Entrepreneur Marocain Musulman des Transports Interurbains Privés et pour cela il fut le Premier President de l’Association des Transporteurs Marocains et President de la Commission des Transports au sein du Ministère des Transports et des Mines.
* Article que la Place Brudo vu la présence de l’Hotel des Postes, cette place servait aussi de lieu de départ des cars de transport a cette époque, toutes directions, y compris ceux qui appartenaient a mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui qui connaissait les Brudo.
Un article intitulé: “La route de Marrakech à El-Jadida (Mazagan) pendant le XXe siècle.” se trouve dans ce lien:
* Jusqu’aux années soixante, lorsque mon Père me fit “monter” au car durant les vacances d’été, on emmenait du courrier et des journaux et d’autres plis a Sidi Smain, Sidi Bennour chez Martinez et Guerrando Tnite Bouchane.
Transports Cherkaoui Toutes Directions – Mazagan – El Jadida – l’Histoire des Transports Publics Interurbains au Maroc Les Transports Toutes Directions – Transports Cherkaoui – Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui – Premier Transporteur Entrepreneur Prive au Maroc et a Mazagan – El Jadida.
Il y a avait une expression qui témoigne de l’importance de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui dans l’Histoire du transport public Marocain et cela d’après un Ami que c’est dans les confins de Zaer ou on le disait ainsi:
“Wach ta Andek Kirane Cherkaoui”
L’autre fameuse expression était chantée par les Chikhates:
“Wa Car diyal Cherkaoui Lhmar fi Agba ya Kfar”

Said El Mansour Cherkaoui Lalla Khadija Cherkaoui J’ai une reponse que j’ecris pour cela Ma Tres Chere Soeur avec tous les details et Ali Belfakir va la lire aussi. Je vais la publier plus tard et en attendant voila une breve introduction et un petit extrait a l’intention de Ali Belfakir a qui je demande de fournir des preuves, des temoignages, des faits et des indications historiques pour verifier sa declaration.
J’attends Ali Belfakir de nous eclairer la dessus pas qu’avec des affirmations mais des explications fondees et soutenues.
En effet, Moussa Belfakir a commencer comme Carrossier bien apres Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, puisque c’est Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui qui lui a appris ce metier.
Moussa Belfakir etait ouvrier chez Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et cela est la verite de la verite.
En effet, ce n’est pas seulement Moussa Belfakir qui fit ecole chez Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui mais aussi son cousin [je pense il s’appelait Abdesslam} qui avait un seul bras. de meme Mimoune aussi fit ses ecoles chez notre Pere, Maalam Bouchaib le Grand pere de Khawa fit ses ecoles chez Moulay Ahmed et la encore tres jeune.
Maalam Bouchaib fils de Derb Berkaoui, a grandi dans les ateliers de notre Pere comme le furent beaucoup d’autres.
L’autre Maalem Bouchaib aussi celui qui occupa le bas de l’immeuble de Ouled Madame Millet, lui aussi avait fait ses ecoles dans les ateliers de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
Je citerais d’autres plus tard.
un point a preciser ici aussi, les agreements qu’avaient la Famille Belfakir (leur cousin qui avait un seul bras, Moussa et Ahmed Belfakir) tous ces agreements sont d’origine une appropriation de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui. Comme tu le dis si bien, l’Histoire et l’Administration en est temoin.
Il n y a qu’ a aller au http://www.equipement.gov.ma/…/Pages/Mot-du-Ministre.aspx a l’époque on l’appelait le Ministère des Transports et des Mines, et voir les archives et vous aurez la surprise de voir que le plus gros dossier qui existe dans leurs archives est celui de Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.
1 – Je vais demander a Ali Belfakir est ce que Moussa Belfakir (Rahimahou Allah) avait fabrique des autocars qui etaient nourris au charbon de bois?
Notre Pere l’avait fait et les avait conduit avec son Jeune Frere Si Mohammed Cherkaoui .
2 – Je vais demander a Ali Belfakir est ce que Moussa Belfakir (Rahimahou Allah) avait fabrique et conduit des autocars qui marchaient au gazobois?
Notre Pere l’avait fait et les avait conduit avec son Jeune Frère Si Mohammed Cherkaoui Cherkaoui Transports avaient les mêmes Cars “Maroc Transport Luxe”Recevez made in mazagan par Courriel / Email* Champ(s) obligatoire(s)E-mail * J’accepte de recevoir du matériel de marketing et de promotion.
Ali Belfakir, je ne viens pas ici pour me rehausser le moral ou prétendre des choses que l’on est pas ou bien de déformer la réalité de notre existence, je suis ici pour la seule raison qui est celle de ne pas perdre le contact avec mes mémoires dont mes amis de plus 40 ans ici et ailleurs en sont les porteurs et les racines et dont je suis fier de les avoir porte en moi dans toute mon existence.
Le Bureau des billets se trouvant a l’epoque au centre d’un grand rond point dans le Garage de Derb Omar a Casablanca fut construit par mon Pere Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
La Gare Routiere de Mazagan fut l’initiative de Mon Pere ou il occupa les premiers bureaux dont la photo de Khalid Essfini montre les cars Minerva que mon Pere outillaient et concevait la carlingue et la carrosserie. Le Garage de stationnement et du depart des autocars de Marrakech direction Casablanca et Mazagan appartenait a Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui et nous appartient jusqu’a ce jour se trouve a Jamaa El Fna. Moussa Belfakir et ses Freres n’avait jamais touchee ou outillee une carrosserie pour un Minerva ou un Panhard dans toutes leurs vies. De meme Moussa Belfakir n’avait aucune propriete de stationnement ou de service pour les transports a part leur garage en face du Cadastre et de Vita et Puglisi et l’autre Italo-Francais qui construisit les caravanes. Je laisse la parole a Ali Belfakir pour l’instant plus d’indications viendront par la suite.
Deuxième Partie: Mon Père, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui le Père de l’Industrie Mécanique Musulmane au Maroc.
Ce n’est point une faute, ni de ma responsabilité que mon Père avait aidé Moussa Belfakir dans tous les domaines meme au niveau de l’achat des agreements et autocars de mon Père et entre nous, ils ne furent nullement régler complètement, il y avait une grande somme due qui ne fut jamais payée a mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui. Eh oui, cela aussi est la vérité et meme cette vérité fut aussi répétée par Mokhtar aussi vis a vis de ma Mère et cela en coalition avec le Fils de Bouchrit, oui l’héritier de Feu Boucherit, vu que Bouchrit Père comme Moussa Belfakir furent aussi dans le temps lparmi les protégés de mon Père, ma Mère fit confiance a son fils aîné je crois Abdesslam Boucherit, ceci se révéla aussi un carousel de trucages et faux et usage de faux. Des documents correspondants sur cette affaire de Mokhtar Belfakir vis a vis de notre Mère existent actuellement a la Mahkama d’El Jadida.
Eh oui notre Mémoire est dure a gommer de nos esprits parce que comme on dit c’est la vérité dont on n’a pas besoin de se la répéter pour s’en rappeler, elle est omniprésente et cela qu’importe le lieu, la distance et le temps parcouru entre sa naissance et sa narration.
Ici, par respect aux individus que mon Père a côtoyé de toutes les confessions, je dis bien que Grace a Dieu, Hachem et Allah, je demeure son porte-parole.
Je te laisse aller te documenter sur tous ces aspects que tu ne connais pas apparemment et de revenir ici avec une argumentation fondée et soutenue par des faits et des mémoires solides pour enrichir notre partage et notre débat loin des frustrations et des émotions gratuites qui devraient comme on dit chez nous qui possèdent l’esprit sportif; elles devraient rester en dehors des vestiaires ou bien enfermées dans les Lockers.
Quand on rentre sur le terrain c’est pour montrer son jeu et notre capacité de contrecarrer l’autre équipe avec droiture et adresse mais pas seulement avec Tehrasse, cela c’est pour les Boujadiyines comme on dit chez nous a Doukkala.
Sur ce je te laisse réfléchir et accumuler les preuves comme j’ai dit auparavant que j’aimerais lire de toi mais pas de plaintes ou complaintes s’il te plait, on a beaucoup émis assez de pareilles comme cela, il est temps de reconstruire notre mémoire et cela sans le confort du couple destructif qu’est la léthargie et l’amnésie.[Ali Belfakir]
Bien a toi amicalement et professionnellement, reçois mes amitiés sincères et laisse moi savoir si tu as besoin de nouvelles et additionnelles indications sur ce chapitre de la Vie Mazaganaise de Mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui.
Je te remercie Ali Belfakir ainsi que ma Soeur Lalla Khadija Cherkaoui pour m’avoir donné ici l’opportunité de clarifier mes mémoires et préciser mes observations sur mon Père, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui le Père de l’Industrie Mécanique Musulmane au Maroc. Like · Reply · March 19 at 5:08am · Edited

Said El Mansour CherkaouiKhalid Essfini Ouled Sidi Baba, tu sais ces cabines en bois en forme de Cabane, elles étaient démontables, avaient une porte divisée en deux, celle d’en haut, on la soulevait et on la maintenait ouverte avec une barre de bois et servait ainsi de protection contre le soleil. A l’intérieur, un genre de banc en bois existait et sur les bords, des crochets pour accrocher les vêtements et les serviettes. Elles reposaient sur une plateforme qui se tenaient sur des pieds et donc la cabine ne touchait pas le sol. Ces cabines étaient colorées en blanc et bleu avec de large rayures transversales. La peinture utilisée pour les peindre était en poudre. L’autre particularité de ces cabines, elles venaient d’un garage situé à Derb Berkaoui, l’ancienne Rue Jean Bart, actuellement Abdelkader Ben Drigua, donc juste en face de l’entrée principale de l’Ancien Parc Lyautey devenu Mohamed V. Ces cabines étaient manufacturées dans un des garages de mon Pere, Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, les deux Maalems étaient deux Bouchaib, le Grand Maalem Bouchaib Abbadi qui sera par la suite le Grand Maitre d’Oeuvre dans les ateliers de mon pere et par la suite chez Belfakir Moussa, Ahmed et Abderrahman, ainsi que Mokhtar. Le Grand Maalem Bouchaib Abadi est le Grand Pere de Driss Allah ya rahmou et de Abdallah El Khaoua et l’autre Maalem Bouchaib Chorfi, l’Oncle de Si Mohamed Hadidi de Derb Berkaoui. Il faut préciser que les cars de transport toutes directions de mon Père Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui avaient la carlingue construite avec une charpente, y compris les cadres et les fenêtres et les portes. Allah ya Rhamhoum wa jallil alihoum Ghofrane. J’ai passé mon enfance a peindre les murs de nos garages avec ces fameuses peintures, l’eau on la prenait d’un puit situé dans la Dwiriya derrière notre maison. Je me limites a ces echos de chroniques d’été des entreprises de mon Père pour l’instant. Voila un peu d’histoire familiale mélangée avec la mémoire de notre ville commune et nos souvenirs collectifs. 1 .7. 17
This writing finds its raison d’être in the spirit and the will to advance and share the reflection and the visions concerning authentic development and national integration in a perspective of shared responsibility with our Saharan Provinces.
Our southern regions must be projected on the vision of Morocco Today as the roots of Morocco at the historical level and as seeds for the realization of the culture of territorial and national integrity as well as the pillars and feet of the Moroccan body for its march on the path of final reunification and its steps toward the achievement of social progress, leading to the construction of regional economic development.
This achievement of economic competitiveness is another crossing destination leading to the establishment of its local structures favorable to a national self-sufficiency coupled and reinforced by the sustainability of operational efficiency and the consolidation of innovative and high value-added local productions and highly competitive offerings in the international market.
“Change is imperative and necessary,” said former Interior Minister Chakib Benmoussa, chairman of this 35-member commission, presenting the report on May 26, 2021, in Rabat.” See more details atMorocco outlines its vision of a “new development model
Le Maroc dessine sa vision d’un “nouveau modèle de développement”
La commission mandatée par le roi Mohammed VI, pour répondre “à la crise de confiance” révélée par les émeutes du Rif de 2017, vient de rendre sa copie. A special commission appointed by the King of Mohammed VI after the Hirak du Rif presented several avenues for reform after a long reflection that involved all the components of Moroccan society. Read more details atMorocco outlines its vision of a “new development model
Economic inclusion, social protection, “effective education”, “quality” health service, “tax fairness”, “efficient and honest justice”, and “strengthening of individual and public freedoms”, Morocco is looking for a new development model, to be able to respond to the “crisis of confidence” of the population vis-à-vis its institutions.
Through the reading of this introduction and the existing narration in this video, we find no trace of what Dakhla or the other urban centers can acquire as direct responsibility in the establishment and the conduct as well as the realization of a strategy. of multipolar development not only inclusive of the regions but above all based on the anchoring of economic development policies having as content and as a goal:
Polycentric “Metropolization” of Spatial Planning and Synchronization of Regional Productive Units for Homogenized National Development
The Development Model submitted to the King of Morocco failed to mention what I am proposing below:
Establishment of several centers in a dependent territory from a single or dominant center– Dakhla should be transformed into a polycentric metropolis of the Moroccan Sahara coupled with a Hub for services between European capitals and the capitals of African countries.
This regional approach would be a conduit for Moroccan spatial planning based on the notion of institutional unity in regional, economic, and social diversity, coupled with a complementarity of productive and operational para-national synergy.
Dakhla would therefore be a hub of correspondence and transfer as an air and sea link as well as rail, thus creating an integrated logistics modal infrastructure with modes of transport and delivery of people and goods, thus consolidating the links between territorial integrity national and territorial integration of Morocco in trade flows between the major centers of the continents of Europe and Africa. This approach is based almost on density: this is the case with standardized centrality indices which can be broken down at several scales – local or global – and by sector of activity (Guérois, Le Goix 2000; Huriot & al. 2003).
Cet écrit trouve sa raison d’être dans l’esprit et la volonté de faire avancer et partager la réflexion et les visions concernant le développement authentique et l’intégration nationale dans une perspective de responsabilité partagée avec nos provinces sahariennes et pas seulement comme une inclusion régionaliste désintégrée. Nos régions du sud doivent être projetées sur la vision du Maroc … Lire la suite Dakhla: Régionalisation – Urbanisation au Maroc Maroc Afrique Croissance
The coastline in the development of Morocco and its Atlantic policy
Le littoral dans le développement du Maroc et de sa politique atlantique
Morocco has been making significant strides in developing its southern provinces and Dakhla as a new development cluster. Here are some key points:
Development of Southern Provinces and Dakhla:
Dakhla, located in the Dakhla-Oued Eddahab region of Morocco, is being developed as a major economic hub with a focus on several key industries:
The Moroccan government has launched the ‘Dakhla Atlantic Port’ project, a flagship megaproject operating within the development model for Morocco’s southern provinces.
The port is expected to support various sectors including fisheries, agriculture, mining, energy, tourism, trade, and industry.
Fishing: Dakhla has a rich fishing industry, and the development of the Dakhla Atlantic Port is expected to boost this sector further. The port has an industrial zone of 270 ha, of which 20% is developed for processing industries, storage areas, administrative areas, and a free export zone.
Tourism: The region’s unique geography and cultural heritage make it an attractive tourist destination.
Energy: Dakhla is at the forefront of Morocco’s green energy initiatives. TAQA Morocco, majority-owned by the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company, has announced plans to invest $27.2 billion in a green hydrogen project in the Dakhla-Oued El-Dahab region. The project will generate 6,000 MW of renewable energy, which will be used to produce and export green hydrogen to meet global demand for
The ‘Tiznit-Dakhla’ expressway project is also underway, which will promote new economic networks spanning from central Morocco to Dakhla.
The Moroccan government aims to turn the country’s southern provinces into an engine of development at the regional and continental levels.
Maritime Facade for Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel:
The Moroccan King’s Initiative aims to grant Sahel countries access to the Atlantic Ocean3. This initiative is seen as a strategic turning point for these countries.
The initiative aims to integrate the Sahel into global trade networks by utilizing Morocco’s road, port, and rail infrastructures.
Four landlocked countries in the Sahel have welcomed this initiative, which requires investments in infrastructure and a co-development approach.
These initiatives and projects demonstrate Morocco’s commitment to developing its southern provinces and Dakhla, serving as a maritime facade for the Sub-Saharan Countries of the Sahel, and building infrastructure to facilitate logistics and trade exchange. However, these are large-scale projects that require significant investment and time to fully realize. It’s also important to note that the success of these initiatives depends on various factors, including regional stability, international cooperation, and sustainable development practices.
Within Moroccan territory, Dakhla would also serve as a model for a hierarchy of intra-metropolitan centers and their respective relations with other centers in Europe and Africa.
It is such a centrality of Dakhla that could instill an industrialization process stimulating economic specialization and an employment / active population ratio favorable to the training and the attraction of qualified labor, thus being able to interweave and harmonize the implementation. place of niche markets for industrial growth through a synergy between the economic, financial, and cultural cogs operating in the other regions of Morocco. This interweaving would facilitate the establishment of a platform endowed with interchangeable infrastructures, operational units, and complementary niches in the polycentric sense.
To avoid the emergence of “single-center” poles and the growth of single-center activities, regional and interregional cohesion would be guided by motivation and an approach favoring innovation, Research and Development, and effective job creation. productive preferably centered on Engineering and mechanical engineering and industrial sectors that can reduce Morocco’s dependence on the import of more efficient and innovative devices, machines, tools, and equipment necessary to the productive operations of factories, industries, and advanced technological productions.
Morocco should thus have the capacity to define and shape as well as produce according to its development needs all the equipment necessary for the materialization of the intermediate stages of its industrial progress.
A synchronized distribution between the areas of influence at the productive level and in the promotion of the region as an essential cog in the functioning, the productivity, and the renewal of the necessary conditions and resources that can stimulate the growth of poles of economic specialization responding to the challenges countries, the construction of the free trade area in Africa and international competitiveness.
