- Episode 2508 - The Kingdom of Morocco - Economy & Trade
This week on This Is America & The World, Dennis Wholey travels throughout the Kingdom of Morocco to learn what drives the country’s economy. Minister of Industry and Trade, Ryad Mezzour, offers an overview of the financial function of the country while other segments touch on the importance of investments in Morocco, the country’s Aeronautics industry, and the powerful scope of Tanger-Med Port, a massive industrial port in Northern Morocco. In addition, Dennis speaks with Chakib Benmoussa, Minister of National Education, Preschool and Sports and President of the Special Commission on the Development Model of Morocco. The Special Commission strives to craft Morocco’s future built on the direct feedback and input of its social, political, and business stakeholders and citizens.

The most surprising thing here for me is how Moroccans top officials are speaking English with ease and no mis-pronounciation or heavy French accent, so much better than our friends the French people
@@rachidtoumzine5015 he was excellent as well, a Moroccan teacher had recently been declared the best teacher in the world. So even the whining of many other teachers and citizens about the status of education the truth is here a Moroccan teacher is the best in the world and that means the whining teachers are simply losers. Contract teachers accepted their positions as contract teachers and if they do not like it they can walk out and leave.
Bro … it is just a language, not a social status or an IQ measurement 🤦🏻♂️
Propaganda paid and selected speaker. Full of lies and the map that contradict united Nation that map without western Sahara 🇪🇭 speaks for itself. It looks like this is a sionistes propaganda to protect their dog 🐕maroko. Morocco has only one border Algeria 🇩🇿 where the borders are and be closed so zero hub to speak about. Lier lier his bot in 🔥 fire . Shame shame as you sioniste propaganda to speak in our names as Americans.
@@mightyman1855 the kingdom of Morocco ruled the Western Sahara and the Eastern Sahara for centuries. You can share as much as you like lies you will never be able to cancel historical facts that link the Kingdom of Morocco to its territories. What you call Algeria never existed as am independent state prior to France annexation (France also annexes eastern sahara to stop Moroccans from helping Kabyles, Azawads,...from uprising against the French colonialism.
Cry as much as you can our Western Sahara is back to its mother land and next we will reunite our Eastern Sahara...for Ceuta and Melilla no need to bother for them they are already in the kingdom of Morocco and Friday prayers there are conducted in the name of the king of Morocco
FYI: refer to French and Othman records to learn about your fictitious Algeria.
Our propaganda machine is more power and well prepared to counter your lies ...Your military regime spent all your gas and oil revenues on failed propaganda and after 50 years of failed propaganda now you collect your failure in all directions....you will never have an access to the Atlantic ocean, you inherited a terrorist organization (now deal with it), you lost your most African allies and you are having once of the leat diversified economy in Africa without had or oil you are doomed. (Check the living standards and success stories Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states achieved with their energy resources and compare it to your failure)
Hail to the king of Morocco for bringing the Kingdom to be the n for hub not only in Africa but in the world. You are so brainwashed you will never understand the master skills of our kings and officials. (Compare for instance the worst Nacer Bourita speach with your best amamra speach and you may learn a thing or two about Moroccan genius)
@@rachidtoumzine5015 the minister of education has a master degree from MIT. He may have an accent but he sure knows how to speak and manage things in the ministry
as an old Canadian i am exhaustingly impressed with how far Morocco has advanced over the past 40 years in all Business sectors...should be interesting into the future with the young prince becoming the future king and his interest's toward the air industry.,
Bullocks .most moroccan live in abject poverty .mot of the economy has been hijacked the tyrant and his henchmen.do some research .knowledge is free
Boeing and airbus do have offices and manufacturing in the country. I really hope they expand and make it an even more robust industry.
Hello friend
Terrific. No doubt Morocco is the coming Singapore of Africa. Keep up the good work people of Morocco.

But our officials need to improve their English communication skills....
@@TheSchiffReport il faudrait aussi diffuser plus démissions en anglais en remplacement du français dès l'enfance. Inshalah petit à petit. Les choses évoluent dans le.bon sens
@@havazaim9619 il faudrais au moins faire comme les pays scandinaves et diffuser les film americains on anglais en mettant des sous titres , comme ca la population s'habitue a la phonetique anglaise ...car il m'a semble' que ces monsieurs pensaient en francais et essayaient de traduire leurs penses en anglais ...meme un polytechnicien comme Benmoussa balbutait en anglais ...grave pour l'image du maroc dans le monde anglophone ...et je n'oserais meme pas penser a comment ca se passe avec les diplomats qui sont sense vendre le Maroc et ses causes dans le monde
@@TheSchiffReport c'est vrai, mais c'est déjà pas mal, à vrai dire je m'attendais à pire, mais certains d'eux étaient même très bien comme le ministre de l'économie ou le responsable du port Tanger Med
It's mind blowing to see all of those Directors and Ministers speak English like a piece of cake. It has been years of French domination. Great to see a leading language taking place in Moroccan cabinets. Fabulous!
Exactly I had low expectations, but I'm truly surprised by their English level
Okay, it's not mind blowing. It's surprising at best.
Great documentary! Proud of my country.. The country where I feel humanity and equality... a place where all religions are welcome and all skin colours. No racisme here.
The future is for Morocco! ❤🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Thanks & Love you guuuys!
So happy that we can visit you soon in your country 🥰❤❤

Hello America, this is just the beginning. 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
America IS Morocco
Morocco is really surprising me every time more & more. I hope it keeps shining and safe especially from the very jealous and rancorous neighbor.
no one is jealous of a country sold to foreign interests while people fester under
oppression and extreme poverty
At least there's no french language thank proud to be Moroccan and the development that we see now
تبارك الله على السيد الوزير شرفتينا . حضور جيد وإنجليزية سليمة جدا خير تعويض للوزير السابق سي العلمي .. بالتوفيق انشاء الله
Even us as Moroccan students feel the change and improvement our country is going through. Wait for us we' re going to make it even greater
Yeah now we got more motivation to study more
Morocco is the hub to the world and especially to Africa
there is more to be done ✔.
we are nothing compared to other emerging econmies...if the human development sector remains the way it is we are going nowhere...in a venerable economy that relies on seasonal rains🌧....istis9a2.lol.
10% unemployment is too little we are not usa ...and there is no help gor those who lost their business.
@@abderrahimelalami6708 u know what makes me worried as a moroccan is the education of the nation, and the nation itself on all levels, i know morocco can make it in economy but how come do that with such a civils, its the l3kar fo9 lghnouna for me...i just wanna get the stuff organized please.

Il a l’air sympathique et competent ce ministre.
Heureux de te lire
On t'a eu monsieur realpolitik, tes vidéos sont intéressantes, il faut en faire plus . J'ai adoré aussi ton idée du kaftan dans nos monuments historiques comme les coreens qui les louent.
Et tu représentes bien et défends bien notre pays
En tout cas allah y wafkek 👍👍
and you also seem nice. happy to read your comment
Tu es là hhhvh
I was delighted to listen to his fluent and competent speech.
We follow you everywhere real polik hhh
Morocco has the best of all worlds: The geographical location of this unique country is perfectly strategic, connecting Africa with Europe. Linking Meditation sea with Atlantic Ocean, bridging East & West, North with south, this is just the best gift that God's nature has to offer. Moreover, Moroccan population is dominantly young, open-minded and work oriented without forgetting their mind-blowing multilingual potential and capacities. Most importantly, the leader of Morocco - his Majesty has a long term clear vision put in place to transform Socioeconomic standards up to the next level. All the previously mentioned elements make up the best formula of sustainable growth & robust development. Well done Morocco.
Many thanks to Dennis, your questions are relevant, precise & right to the point.
🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦 Morocco on the Move!... Run forward Morocco, run!... 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Great documentary , it's showing Morocco's potential 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦👍
the potential people will never BENEFIT from ;)

@@Y.HAJ. Hater? Trust me I love my COUNTRY! ( no need to insult btw, don't be a fool plz) I live in Morocco! RABAT! And I know that all those projects.... Only the KINGS AND FRIENDS benefit from it. THE Moroccans are treated like SLAVES in my lovely country, It's a corrupted country!!

Proud about shit ? 🤨 Where is healthcare of Moroccans and education stuff ? Wtf
@@YOUYOUHOU all what you have to do is to shut the fuck up tho, every country got both strong and weak points.
@@YOUYOUHOU everything has a start. If economy is strong then healthcare will be obviously strong.
We are growing.. remember.. 20 years ago most people didn't have electricity.
@@YOUYOUHOU what's wrong with the education? Its better than usa education and that's true lol
Love from Morocco Casablanca 🇲🇦❤
This is already the Hub …i like how the journalist and the minister smiles 😆 God bless both US and Moroccan Nation 🙏🏻
When a country has such a long history with great universal values, it can only gush from its depth and improve its path with and through time.
Stability, security, culture, tolerance, hard work mixed with a great vision are the key words describing this wonderful kingdom.
Morroco is certainly the hub now and will be unavoidable for companies that wish to secure and pursue their development on a higher level in the very near future.
Several advantages should be mentioned such as the geographical location, the country's leadership in renewable energies (among the top 5 in the world), the high quality of its human ressources and Moroccan engineers, tax advantages for new investments and also for strategic ones…and especially an economy open to the world.
For sure the best is yet to come
Need to add : a country with a world class infrastructure

As a Moroccan i'm proud of having a minister of trade like this one, and the most important point that he is speaking very well english
I will be proud when they will stop teaching and speaking the fucking French in morocco because French just bullshit language to learn!!

@@kristaandsimo916Dude there's nothing called bullshit language. Just hate around it because of inferiority complex even before independence. Hate the game not the player
Such documentaries show how important the English language is. It is time for Morocco to integrate this language in its education policy.
Well said!
what are you talking about? It's already included
English is a part of our educational system!!!

Morocco is on the good trend, good men is in the good positions, this is the secret of success which morocco is following
Morocco is a gorgeous country but you Still you need to invest money in commen transports everywhere in Morocco, improve pavements especially places with new homes, improve administration, IMPROVE PUBLIC SCHOOL AND HOSPITALS then we Moroccans feel better this improvement. Share the wealth and let the medium and small not just a bunch of people on top control all the big industies and businesses. Morocco is beautiful, change the education system and make it towards independent thinking and free speech.

@@victormen19 A good start would be, abolishing French as official language!!! And gradually transition towards English!
No nation in Africa has prospered under French rule or by kissing a** to France! Look at what Rwanda did and how they despite all the challenges have seriously turned the tides...
@@ABC-ABC1234 Rwanda is still a very poor nation
@@jeffthedeaf9159 Sorry Jeff, but you're missing my point! All nations in Africa that still adopt French have been lagging behind MISERABLY!! Coincidence?! I think not! Rwanda is poor, but at least they have a government that actually wants to improve the nation. Morocco has a super corrupt pro West Monarchy, who systematically lies when reporting figures such as poverty. According to "official" numbers Morocco has less than 5% poverty, but in reality (anyone who visited Morocco knows this for a fact) there is AT LEAST 30% poverty in this country! Inflation is wrecking the country, day to day costs of food and building materials became too much for the locals. Morocco should change its official language to English, let's start there, but they need to do it gradually, they should also change its main business partners. And as the OP stated; STOP empowering the elite in Morocco, Small business owners barely get by. There is too much cronyism.
This is why we work so so so hard from Sunday to Sunday 💪🏼
You are always welcome ❤🇲🇦
what a wonderful well made documentary, Morocco is the hub! and everything you ask for. very happy we have the right people in the right places leading the country and the most important we have the safty and stability along side the best stand point where you can reach three great markets.
Is very happy for this opportunity and morocco 🇲🇦 👍
Morocco is the new hub in MENA Region, well made documentary.
In my opinion it's time to strengthen the relation with USA, both countries are representing opportunities for investors (outsourcing, shipping, automatice industry, blockchain and renewable energy...).
The only step we have missed in last decades is, focusing on Europe community as the only main market and partnership. Luckily, the vision of our leaders, now, is more innovative.
Thank you for this documentary, big difference between what Europeans mainstream media are spreading and what you are showing, thumps up, welcome to Morocco

Nice documentary about our Kingdom of Morocco 🇲🇦❤️👌
As a Moroccan Away from individual interests based on a unilateral vision of the person for example such as obtaining a job and founding a family if a person fails to form such matters like these He blames the government and the regime...etc
Morocco and its government have a somewhat distant vision that is characterized by intelligence, despite some social problems because we can’t hide this surely , but if we see stuffs from the top, we will see that Morocco compared to other countries and lets take into account the political, economic changes and instability in some regions
On this point Morocco is an example to follow.
Last but not least Welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦
