King Of #Morocco Speech calls on Economic and Social Council to develop new social charter based on major contractual agreements

HM King Mohammed VI called upon the Economic and Social Council to "give top priority to developing a new social charter based on major contractual agreements.
In a speech, on Monday in Casablanca, at the Council's setting up ceremony, HM the King affirmed that major contractual agreements will "create the right environment to meet the challenge of revamping the economy, boosting competitiveness, promoting productive investment and encouraging public involvement to achieve development at a faster pace", with a view to ensuring "an equitable distribution of the fruits of development, in keeping with principles of social justice and national solidarity."

"Since training is a key element of the Council's terms of reference," the Sovereign went on, "I expect you to propose efficient solutions to the main problems relating to vocational and technical training, the skills needed on the job market and the requirements of sector-specific strategies and major projects."

The Monarch stressed that the ultimate goal is "to ensure a dignified life for all Moroccans - particularly the underprivileged - and to foster the kind of comprehensive development that creates jobs, especially for our young people, who are the main focus of our development policies."

HM the King reaffirmed his determination "to forge ahead with the Moroccan model which, I must stress, is irreversible," adding that "we will be doing more than just safeguarding accomplishments. Indeed, new reforms will shore up the current process, thus reflecting the deep, mutual understanding and cohesion between the Throne and the loyal Moroccan people."

The Sovereign said he is attached to pursuing "structural reforms in accordance with a clear roadmap based on specific objectives and the close bond between the Throne and the people. Our goal is to enable all Moroccans to lead a dignified life within a prosperous, united, fully sovereign and solidarity-based nation."
