Brussels – 26 March 2013

Over the last two years, not a day has gone by in which the Arab world has not received extensive media coverage. Among these reports, news about Morocco seemed relatively absent. But in the meanwhile, “Morocco is moving forward, Morocco is restructuring, Morocco is developing”. These are the words with which Mr. Hijazin, Secretary General of the ABLCC opened the lunch conference entitled “Morocco, More than just a Partner to Belgium and the EU”, which was held on the 26th of March in the presence of H.E. Mr. Addahre, Moroccan Ambassador to Belgium, H.E. Mr. Alem, Moroccan Ambassador to the EU and many Belgium and Luxembourgish companies with an interest in the booming Moroccan market.
