CASABLANCA — Morocco is taking action on unemployment, King Mohammed VI said recently, stressing the need to develop a social protection program and enhance education, especially vocational training.
Speaking Aug. 20 on the 66th anniversary of the Moroccan revolution, the monarch said the government is ready to select a commission to reduce social and economic disparities. One way to do this, he believes, is by emphasizing education. He wants priority placed on vocational education over academic and university programs.
