Nassim Al Musk Belkhayat Coming out of Morocco Not Elon Musk To the Attention of Nassim Belkhayat One of Moroccan’s World-Class Executives.

It seems that I am a lucky charm at the Good Hour
I configure a logo, I write inserts in an article that I publish on the Automotive Industry in Morocco:
Africa Business: Morocco and Global Auto Industry Said El Mansour Cherkaoui October 9, 2023
In addition to the fact that I am a Doukkalais by birth and growth in the Capital of Doukkala – Mazagao – Mazagan – El Jadida and there as by chance of the destiny of a Tbourida-Fantasy-Fantasia, Mr . Belkhayat is thus awarded a Doukkalian confirmation from the hands of a Doukkalaise in this case #leiladoukkali [see photo of the presentation of the Trophy to Mr. Nassim Belkhayat below], yes there was a time when we said that:
“from the City of Azemmour to the Kariya of Fez” – “Min Madinate Azemmour Ila Kariyate Fes”
We understand why the reversal of history became another destiny for Doukkala, our Crème de la Crème transhuman from Doukkala to Fez, including the Chansonnier who reminded us of Ma Ini Ila Bachar looking for the branches of my Chajar.
No matter the time, no matter the place, the essential is the benefit of the good shared with others, the harmony of the spirit thought, and being of the destiny of the soul.

En complément du fait que je suis un Doukkalais de naissance et croissance dans la Capitale de Doukkala – Mazagao – Mazagan – El Jadida et la comme par hasard du destin d’une tbourida, Mr. Belkhayat se voit ainsi décerner une confirmation a la Doukkalienne des mains d’une Doukkalaise en l’occurence #leiladoukkali [voir photo de la remise du Trophée a Mr. Belkhayat ci-dessous], eh oui il fut un temps que l’on disait que:
“de la Ville d’Azemmour a la Kariya de Fès” – “Min Madinate Azemmour Ila Kariyate Fes”
On comprend pourquoi le renversement de l’histoire devint un autre destin pour Doukkala, notre Crème de la Crème transhuma de Doukkala à Fès, y compris le Chansonnier qui nous rappelait Ma Ini Ila Bachar looking for the branches of my Chajar.
Qu’importe le temps, qu’importe le lieu, l’essentiel est le bienfait du bien partagé avec les autres, harmonie de l’esprit, pensée et être du destin de l’âme.

A series of articles and analyses on the continual globalization of the automotive industry which is tested by internal and multipolar competition as well as international imposing is looking not only for new outlets but above all for new production methods, new locations, and other supplies and a dowser by equipment manufacturers. This new composition of the automobile industry was and continues to be guided by the realization of productions relatively less expensive and more competitive than the international scale.
Thus globalization and the integration of advanced robotic production techniques have allowed the relocation of car manufacturing companies without having to adapt to the cultural environment the local operational conditions or even the degree of development of the place, region, and country where the car producers settled.
The profit margin achieved is increased by the reduction of wage costs, the rolling of the rights and social benefits given to the workers are supplemented by favors and facilities granted by the host country which play the role of magnet of attraction for the automobile manufacturers.
The second challenge is internal and specific to the emergence of electric cars which have managed to establish themselves as a serious alternative to traditional models using gasoline or diesel as fuel. Thus, the global automotive industry is currently distinguished by an international and national strategy characterized by change and continuity
Executive Briefing: This article presents the drive of Renault from the edge of bankruptcy to the rise of its model Logan to international prominence, fame and success. At the same time, Renault concentrated its production in countries that have been considered by the major car manufacturers as solely a marketplace and not the location of their production. Cette résurrection de Renault coïncida avec une rupture dans la volonté des décideurs nationaux des pays d’accueil de conduire leurs économies dans la voie du développement généralisé national. Dorénavant, le libéralisme idéologique et sa traduction opérationnelle sous forme du Développement Durable privilégient et accordent la primauté a des politiques conjoncturelles basées sur l’attractivité et l’implantation des créneaux industriels et a des productions sectorielles complémentaires pour la stimulation de la création de l’emploi, l’attrait des producteurs des composants mécaniques et la stimulation des exportations.

Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio has unveiled the first car from its new lower-priced brand Onvo, in a direct challenge to Tesla’s best-selling car. May 15, 2024
Beyond Dream – BYD
Formerly written off by Elon Musk, the Chinese BYD proved its detractors wrong by becoming the world’s leading seller of electric vehicles in July 2022, after having sold 641,000 vehicles in the first half of 2022, almost 80,000 more electric vehicles than Tesla .

On Monday, July 1, 2024, BYD reported EV sales of 426,000. That is 21% more than a year ago, as BYD continues to close the gap on Tesla. In the fourth quarter, BYD briefly passed Tesla in global EV sales.
Although it has gained a strong foothold in the electric vehicle market, BYD began life as a rechargeable battery manufacturer in 1995 and in 2021 built a new factory in Chongqing, China to produce its blade batteries, which are thinner and longer than conventional lithium batteries ion cells.
Blade batteries are also considered the safest EV batteries because they are much less likely to catch fire in the event of an accident. They are also 50% smaller than other battery packs, resulting in lighter, more efficient electric vehicles.
There appear to be no hard feelings between the Chinese giant and Elon Musk: BYD Executive Vice President Lian Yubo now claims that BYD is “good friends” with Mr. Tesla and plans to supply his company batteries for electric vehicles.
Tesla finally unveiled its Robotaxi and larger Robovan at an event Thursday [10/10/24] night, following several years of hype and delays. CEO Elon Musk said the car — with no pedals or steering wheel — would be able to drive itself without supervision. He offered “no details” about where the Cybercab would be made, but said customers will be able to buy it — hopefully before 2027 — for under $30,000. While Musk expects it to rake in trillions, some experts doubt the cars will hit the roads anytime soon, pointing to previous delays. Investors, meanwhile, showed some disappointment around the lack of details.
Tesla’s tactic of pruning back prices this year is beginning to bear fruit. The electric vehicle maker enjoyed a five percent sales increase in the first quarter and delivered a record 422,875 vehicles, which was just below Wall Street’s estimates. The company has addressed the long waits — typically driven by limited production capabilities — that have often marked the buying experience by ramping up outputs at plants in Austin, Texas, and in Germany. Still, some analysts are concerned about whether Tesla can maintain its growth without further price cuts.
Tesla’s first-quarter deliveries represent a 36% increase compared to the same period last year and 4% more than its previous quarter. Its previous delivery record was roughly 405,000 cars in one quarter.
Tesla recently issued a recall for 35 of its electric Semis over a faulty parking brake.
The company is also facing a probe from the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration over malfunctioning seat belts.

It has been 50 years and more that we carry this message and these words in our memory and belief to such an extent that when I crossed the borders of this world, I was asked:
Sir, do you have values to declare?
How did a smart South African pilot answer:
I always thought of his pertinent answer:
“Nothing in the hands, nothing in the briefcase, nothing in the bag, nothing in the pockets, everything in the head.”
My value as one of my Moroccan maternal cousins wrote, it is found in “La Mémoire Tatouée” and in “Le Passé Simple” of another native of our hometown as well as of the liberating activist of African consciences from Overseas in Algeria still Colonized for which members of my own family contributed in its liberation.
These values inherited and transmitted here above and here is a link that can illuminate one of its sources, a group that I lead on Facebook
Cela fait 50 ans et plus que nous portons ce message et ces paroles dans notre mémoire et croyance a tel point que lorsque je traversais les frontières de ce monde, on me demandait:
Mr. est ce vous avez des valeurs a déclarer?
Comment répondait un pilote d’avion malin de l’Afrique du Sud:
Je pensais toujours a sa réponse pertinente:
“Rien dans les mains, rien dans le cartable-porte documents, rien dans la sacoche, rien dans les poches, tout dans la tete.”
Ma valeur comme écrivait un de mes cousins maternels marocains, elle se trouve dans “La Mémoire Tatouée” et dans “Le Passé Simple” d’un autre natif de notre ville natale ainsi que du militant libérateur des consciences africaines d’Outre-Mer en Algérie encore Colonisée pour laquelle membres de ma propre famille ont contribué dans sa libération.

This article is blatant proof that some managers working to promote Morocco, such as within the Morocco Now Campaign at the international level trying to present its existing potential, skills, and opportunities for the sake of attracting foreign companies, foreign investors, and foreign academic or social institutions. Morocco spends millions to build an image of excellence in attractivity and attractiveness hoping such foreign capital will help reduce unemployment, increase job creation, transfer know-how, and raise the standard of living of citizens.
Imagine then that all its laudable efforts do not take the expected direction nor are carried by competent officials and seasoned and experienced professionals in corresponding areas of Marketing, brand definition, and the strategic enhancement of Morocco’s position on the international scene.
The expectations of the Moroccan State are legitimate given that the expenses that are made at the international level are heavy in sum and impact the returns received by Morocco. Payments paid by Morocco for the services of foreign companies of Public Relations, International Marketing, and Consulting Firms are made with rates applied on the spot and in addition, are made in the national currency of the country where these companies offer their services. A direct impact on the balance of payments and the convertibility rate of the Dirham may result from these payment transfers.
Considering all these issues, the imperatives and the challenges facing Morocco at the global level are first the multiple repercussions at the intangible and material level. Building the foundations of economic development and growth in the liberal sense seeks foreign participation as the conduit toward integration in the global marketplace and to the network of foreign financial institutions. Within such a frame, it is quite normal to have a top-level decision-maker for such international communication and PR about Morocco. They have to be up to the task and know the international terrain that will enable them to sail the vessel Made in Morocco and Morocco Now as Innovative and efficient Leaders on board, knowing effectively the direction and the objective – the destination of all these maneuvers to make this Moroccan vessel arrive safely and to make it a proof of the prowess and the skill and the potentialities that can challenge its competitors as well as organizations of all kinds potentially interested in Morocco as a commercial partner, as a production or investment location or as a destination to visit and to know at the cultural and social levels.

Morocco is fast becoming one of the best-emerging markets for investment. Over the last decade, Morocco has witnessed an accelerated process of political, economic, and social reforms, and its steady economic growth and strategic geographic position make it an investment opportunity well worth considering.
Mascarade of the Moroccan Reality – Mascarade de la Réalité Marocaine
All these rankings are deliberate exaggerations and are oriented towards specific goals, it is free cascading advertising that we serve as vectors. If we have our analytical skills, we do not need such and such a firm to give us a colorful map like Walt Disney with numbers and a fake ranking so that we fall into their baskets and serve as a platform and bridge on which they lie comfortably at ease and we, like deafened and amazed, watch them pass under our noses their caravans full to bursting with money and income.
Already, we work for LinkedIn for free by publishing our analysis and becoming a mobile advertising panel for private companies, without questioning their references, and their data, without an equivalence closer to reality to their “corrupt findings”. We become accomplices of ignorance and the manipulation of figures for commercial ends making us prisoners of our nationalist ego to want to make our Kingdom of Morocco win a false gold medal of chocolate which will melt at the first contact with the true light of conscience and founded knowledge.
Tous ces classements sont des exagérations voulues et sont orientées vers des buts précis, c’est de la pub en cascade gratuite dont nous servons de vecteurs. Si on a des capacités propres d’analyse on n’a pas besoin de cabinet tel ou tel pour nous mettre une carte colorée a la Walt Disney avec des chiffres et un classement bidon pour que nous tombons dans leurs paniers et servir de plateforme et de ponts sur lesquels ils s’étendent confortablement a l’aise balaise et nous comme des assourdis et ébahis nous les regardons faire passer sous notre museau leurs caravanes pleines a craquer de pognon et de revenus.
Déjà, on travaille pour LinkedIn gratuitement en publiant nos propres analyse et la devenir un panneau mobile de pub pour les compagnies privées, sans que l’on remet en cause leurs références, leurs données, sans une équivalence plus proche de la réalité a leurs “trouvailles corrompues” on devient complice de l’ignorance et de la manipulation des chiffres pour des fins mercantiles nous rendant prisonniers de notre ego nationaliste a vouloir faire gagner notre Royaume du Maroc une fausse médaille d’or de chocolat qui va fondre au premier contact avec la vraie lumière de la conscience et du savoir fondé.

They are the masters in such “fabrication and makeup of reality. Period”
As Moroccan we need to stop throwing Cheap Roses at ourselves and pay the high price for it to Foreign Public relations conglomerates and Consulting Firms that turn around and resell all the intelligence they get from Moroccan Clients.
We need to find a way to show our real needs of development, not to keep enhancing and blowing out of dimensions things to give ourselves a boost of Fictional Pride and a surge of inflationary nationalistic auto-satisfaction that with the hit of the hard realities we have in Morocco, they will melt like Improvised Ice Cream in the Desert.

REO Target is a hard currency and hard profit, the rest is a deluge of praises without any limit in the sky to get more Moroccan Dirhams to convert into hard currency and hard profit for REO adding deeper deficit on the balance of payment, on the rate of Dirham devaluation and on the public debt.
So where are the benefits for the Moroccans in all this?
Where are the improvements in social conditions?
Where is the level reached by the Research and Development and its discoveries?
Morocco is where about 80% of jobs are informal and the income gaps are very high.
In 2021, Morocco ranked 123rd out of 191 countries in the world on the Human Development Index (HDI), behind Algeria (91st) and Tunisia (97th). It is the most unequal country in North Africa according to the NGO Oxfam.
Signs of a high level of development include industrialization and the everyday use of advanced technology. Levels of education are also related to development. Developed countries usually have higher literacy rates, meaning most of their population can read and write
Developed nations have strong economies, advanced technology, and high standards of living.
Characteristics of Developed Countries?
A high per capita income;
A diverse industrial mix, including a large services sector;
A developed financial system; …
people having a longer life expectancy at birth;
A well-developed educational system.
Are we going to correct all these deficiencies with such PDF, Bling-Bling and Glittering Oscar Night Speeches of self-gratification and self-serving satisfaction while the problems are for real for the rest of the Moroccan and Morocco?

TARGET GETTING the MOROCCAN DIRHAM CONVERTED IN HARD CURRENCY and HARD PROFIT FOR REO ADDING DEEPER DEFICIT on THE BALANCE of PAYMENTS, on the DEVALUATION of the DIRHAM and the PUBLIC DEBT
Street children in Morocco number approximately 75,000, a frightening statistic when you are aware of the damage such circumstances inflict upon children’s development and future. Living in poverty and outside the school system, these children are easy targets for urban violence and all kinds of traffic, whether drugs or sex and have a future as dark as the streets they live on.
Enfants-des-rues-au-Maroc
In Casablanca, the biggest city in Morocco, approximately 22.000 children live in this condition. The chamkers are children who were abandoned or chose to flee their sometimes violent and often difficult family environments. While some of them work in the streets during the day and go home at night to sleep, others make an uncomfortable bed for the night out of a simple cardboard box or staircase step.
In the streets of Casa, the country’s economic engine, which employs over half its population, street children sell small merchandise and basic services to pedestrians and motorists alike.
This social trend is not unique to Casablanca. In Marrakech, one of the biggest souks in Morocco, the millions of tourists aren’t pounding the pavement alone – street children have also set up houses there. Sometimes organized in clans, they earn a few cents in the vicinity of the famous market by selling packets of tissues, tourist guides, and other products.
With a few Dirhams, these children can buy drugs. To alleviate the stress of their daily lives they often sniff glue, a cheap and easy-to-obtain drug, or other hallucinogenic substances. The exact number of street children in Casablanca, Marrakech, and elsewhere is difficult to establish due to their mobility. According to the Moroccan Ministry of Solidarity, Women, Family, and Social Development, the number fluctuates between 20,000 and 70,000.
However, the source of this problem is easier to pinpoint:
The poverty and unemployment affecting numerous Moroccan families and the lack of care and affection given to certain children in the family environment are some of the factors that force children to live on the streets.
A dash of color on a dark canvas: Moroccan civil society, represented by non-governmental organizations and associations, is trying to come to the aid of these children. Occasionally, at the government’s initiative, welcome centers have been opened and strive to reintegrate street children into the school system, a family, and society as a whole.
However, the number of children to care for is too high compared to the infrastructure and qualified personnel dedicated to the cause. Moreover, it is not easy to establish trust between the social and educational agents and the victims; the children, abandoned by their families and rejected by society, have lost all trust in adults and all hope for the future.
Nevertheless, we must safeguard their fundamental rights and, above all, their right to childhood.

“Mohcine Jazouli: First of all, I would like to remind you that it was His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist him, who called, during the Opening Speech in Parliament on October 8, 2021, for the adoption, as soon as possible, “of a new competitive investment charter”. It was therefore necessary to act quickly and well, knowing that the framework law 18.95, the previous charter, would have been almost 27 years old today. This has supported the development of the country and the rise of a modern and broadly diversified economy. But economic, social, institutional, technological, and environmental changes have made it imperative to reform the State’s investment policy. Moreover, the current situation, despite the difficulties it entails, presents opportunities that Morocco will seize. Thus, the new charter is aimed at all those who wish to participate in this new phase of the Kingdom’s development, at all those who project themselves into a promising future: from the VSME to the large group, to national or foreign investors through the Moroccan companies wishing to develop internationally, they will all find in the charter a transparent, incentive and attractive framework.” Source: Challenge.ma – 12/15/2022
Government Council adopted the 1st decree implementing the new Investment Charter – January 26, 2023
As part of the implementation of the High Guidelines of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist him, the Government Council adopted, on January 26, 2023, the 1st decree implementing the new Investment Charter relating to the implementation of the main investment support mechanism and the specific support mechanism applicable to strategic investment projects.
This decree is a decisive step in the operationalization of the Investment Charter.
How do you test and refine your Public Relations and branding messages and materials before launching them?
Before you launch your Public Relations and branding campaign, you need to test and refine your messages and materials to ensure they are clear, consistent, and compelling. Testing and refining your PR and branding elements can help you avoid costly mistakes, improve your reputation, and increase your chances of reaching your target audience and achieving your goals. Here are some steps you can follow to test and refine your PR and branding messages and materials before launching them.
Identify your objectives and metrics
The first step is to identify what you want to achieve with your PR and branding campaign and how you will measure your success. Your objectives should be SMART: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Your metrics should be aligned with your objectives and reflect the outcomes you want to see, such as awareness, engagement, conversion, or loyalty. For example, if your objective is to increase brand awareness among a new segment, your metrics could include reach, impressions, mentions, or surveys.
Define your target audience and personas
The next step is to define who you want to reach with your PR and branding campaign and what motivates them. Your target audience is the group of people who are most likely to be interested in your product, service, or cause. Your personas are fictional representations of your ideal customers or stakeholders, based on their demographics, psychographics, behaviors, and needs. By defining your target audience and personas, you can tailor your messages and materials to their preferences, pain points, and goals.
Create your key messages and value proposition
The third step is to create your key messages and value proposition that communicate what you do, why you do it, and how you are different from your competitors. Your key messages are the main points you want to convey to your target audience and the media. Your value proposition is the unique benefit you offer to your customers or stakeholders. Your key messages and value proposition should be concise, consistent, and compelling, and support your objectives and brand identity.
Develop your PR and branding materials
The fourth step is to develop your PR and branding materials that support your key messages and value proposition and showcase your brand personality. Your PR and branding materials could include press releases, media kits, pitches, blogs, social media posts, newsletters, brochures, flyers, logos, slogans, videos, podcasts, or webinars. Your PR and branding materials should be relevant, engaging, and informative, and use a consistent tone, voice, and style.
Test your PR and branding elements
The fifth step is to test your PR and branding elements with a sample of your target audience and some external experts. Testing your PR and branding elements can help you get feedback on their clarity, consistency, and persuasiveness, and identify any gaps, errors, or areas for improvement. You can test your PR and branding elements using various methods, such as surveys, focus groups, interviews, usability tests, A/B tests, or analytics.
Refine your PR and branding elements
The final step is to refine your PR and branding elements based on the results of your testing and feedback. Refining your PR and branding elements can help you polish your messages and materials, enhance your brand image, and optimize your campaign performance. You can refine your PR and branding elements by making adjustments to your content, design, format, or delivery, and by ensuring they align with your objectives, metrics, brand identity, and target audience expectations.

THOMAS BARCLAY.
TREATY WITH MOROCCO. 1787
Now, KNOW YE, That we, the said John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, Ministers Plenipotentiary aforesaid, do approve and conclude the said treaty, and every article and clause therein contained, reserving the same nevertheless to the Untied States in Congress assembled, for their final ratification. In testimony whereof, we have signed the same with our names and seals, at the places of our respective residence, and at the dates expressed under our signatures respectively.
JOHN ADAMS, (L.S.) London, January 25th, 1787.
THOMAS JEFFERSON, (L.S.) Paris, January 1st, 1787.
This article is blatant proof that some managers working to promote Morocco, such as within the Morocco Now Campaign at the international level trying to present its existing potential, skills, and opportunities for the sake of attracting foreign companies, foreign investors, and foreign academic or social institutions. Morocco spends millions to build an image of excellence in attractivity and attractiveness hoping such foreign capital will help reduce unemployment, increase job creation, transfer know-how, and raise the standard of living of citizens.
Imagine then that all its laudable efforts do not take the expected direction nor are carried by competent officials and seasoned and experienced professionals in corresponding areas of Marketing, brand definition, and the strategic enhancement of Morocco’s position on the international scene.
The expectations of the Moroccan State are legitimate given that the expenses that are made at the international level are heavy in sum and impact the returns received by Morocco. Payments paid by Morocco for the services of foreign companies of Public Relations, International Marketing, and Consulting Firms are made with rates applied on the spot and in addition, are made in the national currency of the country where these companies offer their services. A direct impact on the balance of payments and the convertibility rate of the Dirham may result from these payment transfers.
Considering all these issues, the imperatives and the challenges facing Morocco at the global level are first the multiple repercussions at the intangible and material level. Building the foundations of economic development and growth in the liberal sense seeks foreign participation as the conduit toward integration in the global marketplace and to the network of foreign financial institutions. Within such a frame, it is quite normal to have top-level decision-makers for such international communication and PR about Morocco. They have to be up to the task and know the international terrain that will enable them to sail the vessel Made in Morocco and Morocco Now as Innovative and efficient Leaders on board, knowing effectively the direction and the objective – the destination of all these maneuvers to make this Moroccan vessel arrive safely and to make it a proof of the prowess and the skill and the potentialities that can challenge its competitors as well as organizations of all kinds potentially interested in Morocco as a commercial partner, as a production or investment location or as a destination to visit and to know at the cultural and social levels.
This campaign conducted at Dubai Morocco Expo 2020 Dubai and the film promoting the launch of Morocco Now both in Dubai and New York needs to convey the considerations, unfortunately, they did not and I am not the only one to underline it or to take note of it.
The group presenting this promotion campaign in Morocco in Dubai and Morocco when asked about the impact of these two special promotions and especially how the choice of New York was made, their responses and reactions led through a bombardment by their friends of the media sites by judicious attempts in camouflage in a sheet of prestige and national pride by highlighting and questioning the meaning of patriotism and nationalism to those who dare to ask them such questions. ★
★These friends have coincidentally designated Times Square by the name of Time Square, showing their aptitudes for copying themselves and between themselves and demonstrating their glaring lack of knowledge of the field and New York as a Marketplace.
This article takes a look at such actions and reveals the ineptitude and incompetence of some of our managers, so-called Professionals.
These officials who, once unmasked / and try to question our nationalism and our patriotism, wall themselves in their inability to understand our interrogations and our questions, and given their weakness they opted for the ultimate maneuvers that confirm their skipping, evading the core of their professional responsibilities by exiting through by the door from behind, the Emergency exit. They could not face the reality of the incoherence and incompetent actions.
I let you follow the course and the trajectory of such behavior of a Director of Communication and PR Mrs. Sahar Tlemsani Maghraouiwho abruptly canceled her account on LinkedIn when she or one of her superiors realized that their practices have flaws and gaps and that they could not overcome by bogus explanations as they and she faced the common people in Morocco.
Their manipulation was faced with the competence wall of my questions and my interrogations which have only one goal, it is to return to the Moroccan what belongs to Morocco.

The installed capacity in renewables was 31.7% of the total installed capacity excluding step. If we are talking about the electricity mix, we must say 17.8% in 2020, and not 37%.

Sypnosis on the Kingdom of Morocco’s New Development Strategy for Investment
Morocco is setting a frame and components that can be multiple and diverse in their local content, and regional determinations like in their external and global objectives. This strategy is oriented by the selection of leading mining resources, industrial sectors, and technological and energy-based productions that are becoming the focus and reasons for international heated competition. These advanced areas of design and development are the topics and the objectives that differentiate the level of technological and self-sustainability masteries and sector productive leadership between nations in their drive to set new rules for governance as an alternative to the failed globalization which did not respond to local, regional, national, and “inter-nations” geostrategic interests” but impose more competitive and war-driven interventions as regulation of the flow of natural and primary resources needed to fuel such global expansion made without cushion and safety social nets and ideological and political remedies.
Morocco’s drive is a response to these interferences and moves to rejection and adhesion of nations in new identification of competitive forms. Morocco is positioning its economy and external alliances as a regional liaison, a conduit of dialogue, an ally interlocutor, and a business negotiator within balanced the weakness into forces between spheres of influence and clusters of changes.
Morocco has ratified 72 investment treaties for the promotion and protection of investments and 62 economic agreements, including with the United States and most EU nations, that aim to eliminate the double taxation of income or gains. Morocco is the only country on the African continent with a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the United States, eliminating tariffs on more than 95 percent of qualifying consumer and industrial goods.
The Government of Morocco plans to phase out tariffs for some products through 2030. The FTA supports Morocco’s goals to develop as a regional financial and trade hub, providing opportunities for the localization of services and the finishing and re-export of goods to markets in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Since the U.S.-Morocco FTA came into effect bilateral trade in goods has grown nearly five-fold.
The U.S. and Moroccan governments work closely to increase trade and investment through high-level consultations, bilateral dialogue, and other forums to inform U.S. businesses of investment opportunities and strengthen business-to-business ties.
What are the Government measures to motivate or restrict investment in Morocco?
The new investment charter which was introduced in July 2016 as part of Law 60-16, and replacing a previous charter implemented in 1995, creates free-trade zones in each of the 12 regions of the country, recognizes indirect exporter status, and creates incentives for export-oriented and industrial companies. It also restructures investment promotion activities under the centralized Moroccan Agency for Investment Development and Export. A General Directorate for Trade, a General Directorate for Industry and an agency dedicated to developing the digital economy and e-government were also created under the new charter.
FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) in Figures
After a decline during the global recession, FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) flows to Morocco increased in 2014 and 2015, exceeding USD 3 billion. In 2016, however, flows fell by 29% to USD 2.32 billion. The country’s stability should attract more investors. In addition, a vast project of economic modernisation has been launched to boost FDI. Casablanca in particular aims to become an international financial center. Traditionally, France, Saudi Arabia and Spain have been the three main investors. FDI is mainly concentrated in the real estate sector, followed by industry and tourism.

Here are some countries and sectors that have invested in Morocco through foreign direct investment (FDI): In 2022, the top investing countries by stock were France (30.8%), the United Arab Emirates (UAE) (20.3%), Spain (8%), Switzerland (5.7%), and the United States (5%). In the first quarter of 2022, the leading investors were the United States, France, and the UAE.
Sectors that receive the most FDI are:
Industry: Almost one-fourth of FDI
Real estate: 20% of FDI
Communication: 12.4% of FDI
Tourism: 9.5% of FDI

The aim is to be considered as an alternative and reliable intermediary and as a hub of transfer and transformation of existing created and advanced researched values. The multiple participation of Morocco in international events, the signature of trade treaties and investment agreements, direct involvement in security, and strategic alliances are the institutional expressions for business integration, diplomatic acceptance, and cultural harmonization driven by the search for mutual benefits and complementary exchanges with a transfer of technological intelligence and operational know-how that Morocco is striving to materialize. A new model of development based on the production of clean energy remains the determining factor in conglomerating these similar but not identical factors of development.

Grace to the only God.

And, in obedience to this Majesty’s commands, I certify this declaration, by putting my hand and seal to it, on the eighteenth day of Ramadan, (a) in the year one thousand two hundred. The servant of the King, my master, whom God preserve.
TAHER BEN ABDELKACK FENNISH.

Since my early studies at Institut des Etudes Politiques of the Grenoble University, the development, and integration of Africa were at the forefront of my studies and topics of my presentations in seminaries and essay papers. It was natural that I continue to work and increase awareness about Africa and its need to establish new kinds of relations with countries other than the past metropolitan and colonialists.
I extended the invitation to Dr. Boubacar N’diaye for his presence among us at this International Conference on Africa. He was delighted about my presentation and we also sat together and had lunch at the same table. Wonderful Man with full love for Africa and Africans and who initiated a series of important financial and operational measures: the African Businessmen Round Table, the creation of the African Bank for import-export (Afreximbank), and the setting up of special easy financing for the African private sector (investors and entrepreneurs) without the guarantee of their governments.

The first time in the history of the Bay Area of San Francisco and North California to have a conference of such magnitude and subject. that I submitted to Fazale Sharif the Director of the EBCITD which I was the initiator and for which I and participated directly in its organization.

My celebration in Spanish of our recovery of our Moroccan Sahara from its occupation by the Spanish colonialist state.
I let you imagine the happy song I was singing at that time. 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.
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 that 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 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 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.
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.
My whole family was a victim of reprisals from the French colonial authorities who sought to repress everything that represented a demand for independence, especially since the issue of Morocco was linked to that of Algeria and Tunisia.
My 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 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 to maintain contact between them and show 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.
What I describe above is based on authentic documentation and actions taken directly by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui, Rest Soul and Spirit in Peace in Jena among Saints and Benefactors

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. Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui owned and operated travel transport licenses for intercity All Directions in Morocco connecting the north occupied by the Spanish Protectorate to the middle occupied by the 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 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 started together 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 scenes a facilitator and organizer as well as a 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.
My father’s Buses were the carriers of couriers, supplying all kinds and pieces of information for the nationalists around Morocco, given the buses of my Father had licence/agrements 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 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 had first taken classes in a school teaching Arabic in Rabat and his presence in Cairo where he met my father 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 represented a demand for independence, especially since the issue of Morocco was linked to that of Algeria and Tunisia.
My 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 Madrassa 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Moulay Said Cherkaoui, Abdellah Taleb Hmad Lyoussi, my Uncle and the Father of Khalid Lyoussi Journal — at Aéroport Mohammed V – Nouasseur, Casablanca, Morocco. Through these guiding principles, the entrepreneurial activities of Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui were multiple and diversified in their content as in their future while having a purpose of well-being of construction of a harmonious environment of sharing of the good.
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.

The drivers who lived in the Merchan-Jarda district were with Assidon, the one who had the garage right next to Gimenez Monsieur Kodak. And With I believe Fortis, of the Gonzalez family. 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. Jose must have some connection with Salinas.The drivers in Mazagan at the time,

CTM Office – Mazagan – Facing the Port and on the other side of the Bus Station and Cherkaoui Transport Offices
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.
luggage rack
The Spare Tires on the Sides, a reference from my Memoir on the Work of my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui – Transports Cherkaoui –
Mazagan two doors, one on each side of the coach.
The other alternative and much later, the spare tire was put under the coach on the side of the ladder or on the back side just next to the ladder which leads to the luggage rack.

The difference with the coaches built by my father were at the beginning put in front of the side of the wings to allow to have two doors, one on each side of the coach.
The other alternative and much later, the spare tire was put under the coach on the side of the ladder or on the back side just next to the ladder which leads to the luggage rack.

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.
Exchange of Comments on Facebook on Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
Pioneer of the Modernization of Morocco, an Enterprising Will of the Beginning of the Twentieth Century: Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui:
Ali Belfakir , I do not come here to boost my morality or pretend things that we are not or to distort the reality of our existence, I am here for the only reason which is not to lose contact with my memories of which my friends of more than 40 years here and elsewhere are the carriers and the roots and of which I am proud to have carried them in me throughout my existence.
The ticket office located at the time in the center of a large roundabout in the Garage of Derb Omar in Casablanca was built by my Father Moulay Ahmed Cherkaoui
The Bus Station of Mazagan was the initiative of My Father where he occupied the first offices including the photo of Khalid Essfini shows the Minerva coaches that my Father tooled and designed the cabin and the bodywork. 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.

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

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,

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.

Mind State of a Single Transition and Two Faces of the Same Energy Vision
The Dream of an Editor is to break the silence and publish analyses, reports and reports on taboo subjects, especially those which convey the reform of knowledge and the recasting of current events according to official standards. As a Moroccan, Morocco is our first idea of development and building benefits for the rest of the nation.
Our work is a journey strewn with obstacles to bring about our perception and our belief in the Written and the publication of articles addressing both the structures of thought and the carrying out actions that can make the debate fruitful and enrich the constructive activities of progress. social, economic development and operational integration of state public agencies in the pursuit, overhaul and realization of the objectives and performances going towards the realization of the authentic independence of the financial and productive economy of Morocco.
État d’esprit d’une transition unique et deux faces d’une même vision d’énergie
Le Rêve d’un Editeur est de briser le silence et de publier des analyses, des reportages et des reportages sur des sujets tabous, notamment ceux qui véhiculent la réforme des savoirs et la refonte de l’actualité selon les normes officielles. En tant que Marocain, le Maroc est notre première idée de développement et de création de bénéfices pour le reste de la nation.
Notre travail est un chemin semé d’embûches pour faire émerger notre perception et notre croyance dans l’Écrit et la publication d’articles abordant à la fois les structures de pensée et la conduite d’actions susceptibles de féconder le débat et d’enrichir les activités constructives de progrès. le développement social, économique et l’intégration opérationnelle des organismes publics de l’Etat dans la poursuite, la refonte et la réalisation des objectifs et performances allant vers la réalisation de l’indépendance authentique de l’économie financière et productive du Maroc.
The counterpart, as in the case of United States investments in a multipolar world, Morocco is choosing:
1 – Targets both at the level of the positioning of the Moroccan Economy on the energy supply chain which is the most important and the most vulnerable at the level of the international market as it is the most profitable at the level of seasonal variations.
2 – Objectives centered on the current multipolar and neutrality in relation to the geo-strategic aims of a competitive nature between the West – United States and Allies + European Union on one side and BRIC, China, Russia and the Dandinons who waddle between the two blocs: like India and the other countries of the South.
3 – Morocco seeks to prove its capacity to replace clean and renewable energies as a national export and as a Magnet for the attractiveness of foreign direct investments which consider Electric Energy as one of the main elements of their risk analysis concerning the host countries of their companies.
4 – Morocco needs to assert itself at the level of the production and transformation of Electric Energy at the level of its offer as a commodity in order to establish its industrialize strategy which will be the new and next stage, namely Emergence of an offer of local and regional solutions for international demand for the International Division of Technological Work, Logistics based on niches of the mastery of digital knowledge and its extension of robotic intelligence.
5 – Morocco is moving forward, building itself and moving towards the establishment of an economy equipped with all the assets to make it a national economic structure diversified regionally and homogeneous at the national level as a stakeholder in the concert of nations hosting national industries located on the periphery of those of other Western and Eastern countries.
These economies, through their past collaborations and their present competition, have far exceeded the framework of the sole “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” and “Assembly Line – Asymmetrical Assembly Line” asymetric as the basis for the control of the creation and innovation.
These countries, especially in South-West Asia, including China, are now located in an open and spontaneously competitive space at the level of manufacturing and the asymmetrical production of products and services offered for direct and variable consumption by consumers now acquired through selection. products based on their own criteria of choice and demonstration effect and having no consideration for the national origin of the product consumed.
A leveling of supply and demand is found at the level of purchasing power, the price of the product, the quality of its utility, the reliability of distribution logistics and customer service as well as the proximity of the international consumer market in power.
La contrepartie comme le cas des investissements des Etats Unis dans un monde multipolaire, le Maroc est en train de choisir:
1 – Des cibles a la fois au niveau du positionnement de l’Économie du Maroc sur la chaîne d’approvisionnement énergétique qui la plus importante et la plus vulnérable au niveau du marche international comme elle est la plus rentable au niveau des variations saisonnières.
2 – Des objectifs centrés sur les actuelles multipolaires et la neutralité par rapport aux visées géo-stratégiques d’ordre concurrentielles entre l’Occident – Etats-Unis et Alliés + Union Européenne d’un coté et BRIC, Chine, Russie et les Dandinons qui dandinent entre les deux blocs: comme l’Inde et les autres pays du Sud.
3 – Le Maroc cherche a se prouver sa capacité de substituer les énergies propres et renouvelables en tant qu’exportation nationale et en tant que Magnet pour l’attractivité des investissements directs étrangers qui considèrent l’Énergie Electrique en tant qu’un des principaux éléments de leur analyse des risques concernant les pays hôtes de leurs entreprises.
4 – Le Maroc a besoin de se faire valoir au niveau de la production et la transformation de l’Énergie Electrique au niveau de son offre comme commodité afin d’asseoir sa stratégie industrialisable qui sera la nouvelle et la prochaine étape a savoir l’Émergence d’une offre de solutions locales et régionales pour la demande internationale pour la Division International du Travail Technologique, Logistiques basée sur des créneaux de la maîtrise du savoir numérique et sa prolongation de l’intelligence robotique.
5 – Le Maroc s’avance, se construit et se dirige vers l’instauration d’une économie dotée de tous les atouts pour en faire une structure économique nationale diversifiée régionalement et homogène au niveau nationale en tant que partie prenante du concert des nations abritant des industries nationales localisées a la périphérie de celles des autres pays occidentaux et orientaux.
Ces économies a travers leurs collaborations passées et leurs concurrences présentes ont largement dépassées le cadre de la seule “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” et “Assembly Line – Ligne d’Assemblage” asymétrique comme base et comme seule maîtrise de la création et de l’innovation.
Ces pays surtout du Sud-Ouest Asiatique y compris la Chine se situent dorénavant dans un espace ouvert et concurrentiel spontané au niveau de la manufacture et la production asymétrique des produits et des services offert a la consommation directe et variable des consommateurs dorénavant acquis a la sélection des produits basés sur leur propre critères de choix et d’effet de démonstration et n’ayant aucune considération pour l’origine nationale du produit consommé.
Un nivellement de l’offre comme de la demande se rencontre au niveau du pouvoir d’achat, du prix du produit, la qualité de son utilité, la fiabilité de la logistique de distribution et du service clients ainsi que la proximité du marché consommateur international en puissance.
My concepts and my ideas put forward in this text deserve further study by decision-makers, political leaders, state officials, researchers, academicians and business leaders in Morocco.
Since the end of the 1970s I have been writing and analyzing this phenomenon of transition and transformation of economies, Africa search for a Model of Development in the first place.
A year later, I started my research on Industrial Development in Morocco and what is the central role of the State in lifting the economy to a take-off, growth, and steady development of the most important industrial sectors and productions driving the Moroccan economy and providing the highest return and employment as well as contribution in the exports.
While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble in France, where I lived one of the most devastating in my life stories which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities for another Made In Great Britain future of the time but my pride to be an African and to remain so was worth all the losses I endured thereafter like a cascade of magma burning everything in my path. My wounds have never been healed but my African dignity is my eternal strength
I am proud to have always supported Africa wherever I go and this through the Education I received from my Mother and my Father, Rahma Wa Ghofrane for all our parents, Amen

Mon concepts et mes idées avancés dans ce texte méritent un approfondissement de la part des décideurs, des leaders politiques, de responsables de l’Etat, des chercheurs, des académiciens et des chefs d’entreprises au Maroc.
Depuis la fin des années 70 que j’écris et analyse ce phénomène de la transition et de la transformation des économies, en premier le Maroc.
Un an plus tard, j’ai commencé mes recherches sur le développement industriel au Maroc et sur le rôle central de l’État dans l’élévation de l’économie vers un décollage, une croissance et un développement régulier des secteurs industriels et des productions les plus importants qui stimulent l’économie marocaine et offrant le rendement et l’emploi les plus élevés ainsi qu’une contribution aux exportations.
Alors que j’étais jeune étudiant à Sciences Po Grenoble en France, où j’ai vécu l’une des histoires les plus dévastatrices de ma vie qui a miné tous les ingrédients et opportunités pour un autre futur Made In Great Britain de l’époque, mais ma fierté d’être Africain et le rester valait toutes les pertes que j’ai endurées par la suite comme une cascade de magma brûlant tout sur mon passage. Mes blessures n’ont jamais été guéries mais ma dignité africaine est ma force éternelle
Je suis fier d’avoir toujours soutenu l’Afrique partout où je vais et cela à travers l’Éducation que j’ai reçue de ma Mère et de mon Père, Rahma Wa Ghofrane pour tous nos parents, Amen

Here is my modest contribution to advance the discussion and to stimulate the debate about national energy that is “essential and/or detrimental” to any model development and if we are seeking to have our industries to be the hub for the Manufacturing sector located between Europe, North America, Middle and Fareast and our Africa, we need to have a Great Power diversified and plural in its source like in its energetic provision based on national independence of our Energy Policy.
Just for matter of location and extension, China has developed a Solar Farm that can provide power to the entire Country of Sierra Leone.
Voici ma modeste contribution pour faire avancer la discussion et stimuler le débat sur l’énergie nationale « essentielle et/ou préjudiciable » à tout développement de modèle et si nous cherchons à faire de nos industries la plaque tournante du secteur manufacturier situé entre l’Europe , Amérique du Nord, Moyen et Extrême-Orient et notre Afrique, nous avons besoin d’avoir une Grande Puissance diversifiée et plurielle dans sa source ainsi que dans son approvisionnement énergétique basé sur l’indépendance nationale de notre politique énergétique.
Juste pour des questions d’emplacement et d’extension, la Chine a développé une ferme solaire capable de fournir de l’électricité à l’ensemble du pays de la Sierra Leone.
China has just connected what it believes to be the world’s biggest solar power plant to the grid in northwestern Xinjiang. The plant covers an area of 200,000 acres and is reported to have an output of 6.09 billion kWh annually.
The new plant is in the deserts near the region’s capital Ürümqi. The site came online this Monday (June 3) and is being run by the Chinese state-owned Power Construction Corporation, co-owned by the China Africa Development Fund and the Shenzhen Energy Group, with a respective stake of 50% each.

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.”
@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.

Par Said El Mansour Cherkaoui – 17/12/2023
The counterpart, as in the case of United States investments in a multipolar world, Morocco is choosing:
1 – Targets both at the level of the positioning of the Moroccan Economy on the energy supply chain which is the most important and the most vulnerable at the level of the international market as it is the most profitable at the level of seasonal variations.
2 – Objectives centered on the current multipolar and neutrality in relation to the geo-strategic aims of a competitive nature between the West – United States and Allies + European Union on one side and BRIC, China, Russia and the Dandinons who waddle between the two blocs: like India and the other countries of the South.
3 – Morocco seeks to prove its capacity to replace clean and renewable energies as a national export and as a Magnet for the attractiveness of foreign direct investments which consider Electric Energy as one of the main elements of their risk analysis concerning the host countries of their companies.
4 – Morocco needs to assert itself at the level of the production and transformation of Electric Energy at the level of its offer as a commodity in order to establish its industrialize strategy which will be the new and next stage, namely Emergence of an offer of local and regional solutions for international demand for the International Division of Technological Work, Logistics based on niches of the mastery of digital knowledge and its extension of robotic intelligence.
5 – Morocco is moving forward, building itself and moving towards the establishment of an economy equipped with all the assets to make it a national economic structure diversified regionally and homogeneous at the national level as a stakeholder in the concert of nations hosting national industries located on the periphery of those of other Western and Eastern countries.
These economies, through their past collaborations and their present competition, have far exceeded the framework of the sole “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” and “Assembly Line – Asymmetrical Assembly Line” asymetric as the basis for the control of the creation and innovation.
These countries, especially in South-West Asia, including China, are now located in an open and spontaneously competitive space at the level of manufacturing and the asymmetrical production of products and services offered for direct and variable consumption by consumers now acquired through selection. products based on their own criteria of choice and demonstration effect and having no consideration for the national origin of the product consumed.
A leveling of supply and demand is found at the level of purchasing power, the price of the product, the quality of its utility, the reliability of distribution logistics and customer service as well as the proximity of the international consumer market in power.
La contrepartie comme le cas des investissements des Etats Unis dans un monde multipolaire, le Maroc est en train de choisir:
1 – Des cibles a la fois au niveau du positionnement de l’Économie du Maroc sur la chaîne d’approvisionnement énergétique qui la plus importante et la plus vulnérable au niveau du marche international comme elle est la plus rentable au niveau des variations saisonnières.
2 – Des objectifs centrés sur les actuelles multipolaires et la neutralité par rapport aux visées géo-stratégiques d’ordre concurrentielles entre l’Occident – Etats-Unis et Alliés + Union Européenne d’un coté et BRIC, Chine, Russie et les Dandinons qui dandinent entre les deux blocs: comme l’Inde et les autres pays du Sud.
3 – Le Maroc cherche a se prouver sa capacité de substituer les énergies propres et renouvelables en tant qu’exportation nationale et en tant que Magnet pour l’attractivité des investissements directs étrangers qui considèrent l’Énergie Electrique en tant qu’un des principaux éléments de leur analyse des risques concernant les pays hôtes de leurs entreprises.
4 – Le Maroc a besoin de se faire valoir au niveau de la production et la transformation de l’Énergie Electrique au niveau de son offre comme commodité afin d’asseoir sa stratégie industrialisable qui sera la nouvelle et la prochaine étape a savoir l’Émergence d’une offre de solutions locales et régionales pour la demande internationale pour la Division International du Travail Technologique, Logistiques basée sur des créneaux de la maîtrise du savoir numérique et sa prolongation de l’intelligence robotique.
5 – Le Maroc s’avance, se construit et se dirige vers l’instauration d’une économie dotée de tous les atouts pour en faire une structure économique nationale diversifiée régionalement et homogène au niveau nationale en tant que partie prenante du concert des nations abritant des industries nationales localisées a la périphérie de celles des autres pays occidentaux et orientaux.
Ces économies a travers leurs collaborations passées et leurs concurrences présentes ont largement dépassées le cadre de la seule “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” et “Assembly Line – Ligne d’Assemblage” asymétrique comme base et comme seule maîtrise de la création et de l’innovation.
Ces pays surtout du Sud-Ouest Asiatique y compris la Chine se situent dorénavant dans un espace ouvert et concurrentiel spontané au niveau de la manufacture et la production asymétrique des produits et des services offert a la consommation directe et variable des consommateurs dorénavant acquis a la sélection des produits basés sur leur propre critères de choix et d’effet de démonstration et n’ayant aucune considération pour l’origine nationale du produit consommé.
Un nivellement de l’offre comme de la demande se rencontre au niveau du pouvoir d’achat, du prix du produit, la qualité de son utilité, la fiabilité de la logistique de distribution et du service clients ainsi que la proximité du marché consommateur international en puissance.
My concepts and my ideas put forward in this text deserve further study by decision-makers, political leaders, state officials, researchers, academicians and business leaders in Morocco.
Since the end of the 1970s I have been writing and analyzing this phenomenon of transition and transformation of economies, Africa search for a Model of Development in the first place.
A year later, I started my research on Industrial Development in Morocco and what is the central role of the State in lifting the economy to a take-off, growth, and steady development of the most important industrial sectors and productions driving the Moroccan economy and providing the highest return and employment as well as contribution in the exports.
While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble in France, where I lived one of the most devastating in my life stories which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities for another Made In Great Britain future of the time but my pride to be an African and to remain so was worth all the losses I endured thereafter like a cascade of magma burning everything in my path. My wounds have never been healed but my African dignity is my eternal strength
I am proud to have always supported Africa wherever I go and this through the Education I received from my Mother and my Father, Rahma Wa Ghofrane for all our parents, Amen

Mon concepts et mes idées avancés dans ce texte méritent un approfondissement de la part des décideurs, des leaders politiques, de responsables de l’Etat, des chercheurs, des académiciens et des chefs d’entreprises au Maroc.
Depuis la fin des années 70 que j’écris et analyse ce phénomène de la transition et de la transformation des économies, en premier le Maroc.
Un an plus tard, j’ai commencé mes recherches sur le développement industriel au Maroc et sur le rôle central de l’État dans l’élévation de l’économie vers un décollage, une croissance et un développement régulier des secteurs industriels et des productions les plus importants qui stimulent l’économie marocaine et offrant le rendement et l’emploi les plus élevés ainsi qu’une contribution aux exportations.
Alors que j’étais jeune étudiant à Sciences Po Grenoble en France, où j’ai vécu l’une des histoires les plus dévastatrices de ma vie qui a miné tous les ingrédients et opportunités pour un autre futur Made In Great Britain de l’époque, mais ma fierté d’être Africain et le rester valait toutes les pertes que j’ai endurées par la suite comme une cascade de magma brûlant tout sur mon passage. Mes blessures n’ont jamais été guéries mais ma dignité africaine est ma force éternelle
Je suis fier d’avoir toujours soutenu l’Afrique partout où je vais et cela à travers l’Éducation que j’ai reçue de ma Mère et de mon Père, Rahma Wa Ghofrane pour tous nos parents, Amen

Here is my modest contribution to advance the discussion and to stimulate the debate about national energy that is “essential and/or detrimental” to any model development and if we are seeking to have our industries to be the hub for the Manufacturing sector located between Europe, North America, Middle and Fareast and our Africa, we need to have a Great Power diversified and plural in its source like in its energetic provision based on national independence of our Energy Policy.
Just for matter of location and extension, China has developed a Solar Farm that can provide power to the entire Country of Sierra Leone.
Voici ma modeste contribution pour faire avancer la discussion et stimuler le débat sur l’énergie nationale « essentielle et/ou préjudiciable » à tout développement de modèle et si nous cherchons à faire de nos industries la plaque tournante du secteur manufacturier situé entre l’Europe , Amérique du Nord, Moyen et Extrême-Orient et notre Afrique, nous avons besoin d’avoir une Grande Puissance diversifiée et plurielle dans sa source ainsi que dans son approvisionnement énergétique basé sur l’indépendance nationale de notre politique énergétique.
Juste pour des questions d’emplacement et d’extension, la Chine a développé une ferme solaire capable de fournir de l’électricité à l’ensemble du pays de la Sierra Leone.
China has just connected what it believes to be the world’s biggest solar power plant to the grid in northwestern Xinjiang. The plant covers an area of 200,000 acres and is reported to have an output of 6.09 billion kWh annually.
The new plant is in the deserts near the region’s capital Ürümqi. The site came online this Monday (June 3) and is being run by the Chinese state-owned Power Construction Corporation, co-owned by the China Africa Development Fund and the Shenzhen Energy Group, with a respective stake of 50% each.

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.”
@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 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.
