Morocco's King Urges Swift Social Reforms Amid Youth-Led Protests
"We have set as priorities [...] the creation of jobs for young people, and the concrete improvement of the education and health sectors," King Mohammed VI said in his annual address to the opening session of parliament.
The monarch urged "a faster implementation pace and stronger impacts from the next generation of local development programs."
"There should be no contradiction or competition between major national projects and social programs," he stressed.
Unrest spread across Morocco on September 27 and lasted a week, with protesters demanding reforms to the education system and health services.
