The government program aims to achieve a growth of the national economy of around 5.5%, said Minister Delegate in charge of General Affairs and Governance, Mohamed Najib Boulif.
In a statement to the press shortly before the Cabinet Council, which met Tuesday evening under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane, the Minister said that unemployment is expected to reach 8 pc.
He stressed that the government program focused on several directions notably the societal project which, he said, is “an identity project which focuses on everything related to identity, culture and language.”
The other direction, he said, is on governance and the implementation of democracy in the new Constitution, through various measures taken by the government during the next five years.
Last but not least, establishing a national competitive, productive and employment-generating economy, in addition to equitable distribution in the social field, assuming the principle of the solidarity-based State which guarantees social rights to all Moroccans and consolidating Morocco’s position at the Arab, Islamic, African and international levels.
