[00:06:22] A review of the new newspapers issued tomorrow,
[00:06:25] by
[00:06:26] Ayad
[00:06:36] El-Sersati. We start our review of the new newspapers issued today from Al-Ahdath
[00:06:39] Al-Maghribia. It wrote that the King's speech before the members
[00:06:43] of Parliament closely linked the promotion
[00:06:46] of integrated development, the improvement of public services,
[00:06:49] and the stimulation of productive investment
[00:06:51] with success in implementing regionalization,
[00:06:54] calling on the private sector and national capital to move
[00:06:58] away from traditional axes and invest in the most
[00:07:02] vulnerable regions to ensure a fair
[00:07:05] distribution of wealth and job opportunities. The King's speech
[00:07:08] also openly criticized the continued obstacles and delays
[00:07:12] that hinder the transfer of powers
[00:07:15] and resources from the central government to the regions
[00:07:18] and provinces. The electronic newspaper "Barlemane"
[00:07:22] wrote in its latest news update that Belgian Minister of State
[00:07:26] André Flahaut confirmed that the speech delivered
[00:07:29] by His Majesty King Mohammed VI to the members of both chambers
[00:07:33] of Parliament constitutes
[00:07:36] Morocco's partner countries to reframe
[00:07:39] relations on the basis of a logic of enhanced
[00:07:43] cooperation and mutual respect. He stated
[00:07:47] that His Majesty the King highlighted in his esteemed speech
[00:07:50] the necessity of building renewed
[00:07:53] neighboring countries and the Kingdom's European
[00:07:56] partners on the basis of a firm political will
[00:08:00] and a voluntary commitment. The Belgian Minister
[00:08:03] of State considered that this royal orientation has
[00:08:06] special importance in a context characterized
[00:08:09] by tensions regarding the issue of migration.
[00:08:13] The newspaper "Bayan Al-Yawm" wrote in its issue today, Monday, that four
[00:08:17] Gulf states, namely the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Kingdom
[00:08:21] of Bahrain, the State of Qatar, and the State of Kuwait, reiterated their support
[00:08:25] for Morocco's sovereignty and territorial integrity and their backing
[00:08:28] for the autonomy initiative under Moroccan sovereignty
[00:08:31] as a basis for reaching a political
[00:08:35] solution to the Moroccan Sahara issue. This was stated during
[00:08:38] the interventions of their representatives before the Fourth Committee of the General
[00:08:42] Assembly of the United Nations in New York. They stressed
[00:08:45] the importance of consensus and respect for Security Council
[00:08:49] resolutions and enhancing security
[00:08:53] the region.
[00:08:56] The electronic newspaper "Le 360" wrote that a number of speakers
[00:08:59] before the Fourth Committee of the United Nations General Assembly
[00:09:03] in New York highlighted the momentum of comprehensive
[00:09:06] development in the southern provinces of the Kingdom, characterized
[00:09:09] by investments. Before the committee, he affirmed that
[00:09:23] the stability enjoyed by the southern provinces
[00:09:27] allows for investments, infrastructure, and public
[00:09:30] services, which creates
[00:09:33] encouraging conditions for achieving economic
[00:09:37] progress.
[00:09:38] The deceased Coco
[00:10:42] The bulletin has ended, and here is a reminder of the most important points
[00:10:46] it covered.
[00:10:52] We followed, in tonight's bulletin, the exalted Royal Speech
[00:10:55] on the occasion of the opening of the legislative year. A strategic royal
[00:10:58] vision for dealing with Europe in the field of migration.
[00:11:02] His Majesty the King affirmed that the Kingdom of Morocco has managed
[00:11:05] to consolidate its position as a responsible and reliable
[00:11:09] partner.
[00:11:16] And in New York, before the Fourth Committee
[00:11:19] of the United Nations General Assembly, elected officials and economic actors
[00:11:23] highlight the leap
[00:11:26] and developmental dynamism in the southern
[00:11:28] regions.
[00:11:32] We also followed in the bulletin from the province of Guelmim, a significant amount of water
[00:11:36] resources received by a number of dams after the recent rainfall
[00:11:40] reinforced the water reserves in the region. Under the High Patronage of His
[00:12:14] Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God
[00:12:17] grant him victory, the Royal Moroccan Horseback
[00:12:20] Riding Championship returns again this year.
[00:12:25] 26. Tetouan, Rabat,
[00:12:28] El Jadida. Three stations,
[00:12:31] three weeks of competition among the world's most skilled
[00:12:34] riders. Grand Prix races for the
[00:12:38] Nations Cup in the fourth category. And for the first time,
[00:12:42] the World Cup of the five-star category.
[00:12:46] The Royal Moroccan
[00:12:48] League. Excitement and passion
[00:12:51] renewed.
[00:14:22] this fuss about protecting personal data.
[00:14:25] I'll protect it. Personal data protection
[00:14:28] is no joke. Our country takes the matter
[00:14:32] seriously and has established laws and rules to protect your name,
[00:14:35] phone number, address, photos, school information,
[00:14:39] and even medical and banking information. In
[00:14:42] short, any information that identifies you.
[00:14:45] But I still don't understand why all these precautions. I'll explain it
[00:14:49] to you. Your mirrors are worth gold.
[00:14:51] Companies use them to flood you with ads.
[00:14:55] Hackers, I mean pirates, can steal your money or impersonate you.
[00:14:58] And there are bad people who can use it against you or even
[00:15:02] forge it
[00:15:04] the end, protection equals protection for your freedom,
[00:15:08] your private life, and your family's life.
[00:15:11] Like how? Yes, for example, they can hack
[00:15:14] your accounts, steal your identity, and buy things with it.
[00:15:17] Your personal photos
[00:15:19] might be exposed. Even if it seems simple, the consequences
[00:15:23] can be severe. Oh my God, what should I do to
[00:15:27] protect myself? It's easy. First, create a long
[00:15:31] and different password for each account. Second, enable two-factor authentication
[00:15:34] whenever possible, meaning two-factor authentication. Third,
[00:15:38] don't give too much personal information on websites.
[00:15:43] suspicious links or websites. Oh, now
[00:15:46] I understand. What does the CNDP do? This is the National Commission
[00:15:50] for the Control of Personal Data Protection. The CNDP's
[00:15:53] role is to raise awareness and explain to citizens
[00:15:56] and institutions how to apply and protect your rights
[00:16:00] as a citizen and to monitor so that no companies or administrations violate
[00:16:03] your privacy. And if you are a victim of illegal and unauthorized exploitation
[00:16:06] of your data, there is a committee that ensures compliance with the personal
[00:16:10] data protection law. To live in the digital world,
[00:16:13] we must ensure the protection of our data.
[00:16:16] Forja, the first video-on-demand platform with the best
[00:16:19] films, series, and 100% Moroccan
[00:16:23] documentaries. Forja is the best
[00:16:25] entertainment.
[00:16:30] Who is this? This is Haj Taher. He is my future
[00:16:33] husband. All of Morocco wears calf
[00:16:52] shoes. The only thing that moves your feelings
[00:16:56] is money. What I want to do with my son's circumcision,
[00:16:59] I will do. You have been circumcised. He
[00:17:03] brought me
[00:17:05] Belgium. I'll share my cash with you. One thing, get out and tell
[00:17:09] me to stay with you. My name is Madame
[00:17:12] Ahlam. His job is to work.
[00:17:15] Your appointment with the new series Al-Haj Taher every
[00:17:43] Before the results reached this moment, there was a ballot
[00:17:47] paper and a ballot box, and voters chose
[00:17:50] to express their opinion. Between the moment the polling
[00:17:54] stations opened and the moment the results were announced, there was an electoral
[00:17:58] achievement. Many questions
[00:18:01] and expectations.
[00:18:04] How was election day? What did Moroccans expect from
[00:18:07] the next parliament? And how did
[00:18:10] the voters' voices turn into results that redrew the political
[00:18:13] scene? Details and more are covered in this
[00:18:17] episode of Moroccan Report.
[00:18:37] On Election Day, polling stations opened their doors to
[00:18:41] voters in various regions of the Kingdom. From the first
[00:18:44] hours, the electoral process began with its
[00:18:48] known procedures: verifying the voter's identity, handing
[00:18:51] over the ballot paper, and then casting the vote behind
[00:18:54] the screen. A moment that seems short in time,
[00:18:58] but for the democratic process, it is the moment
[00:19:02] when the citizen transforms from an observer
[00:19:05] of political affairs
[00:19:08] to a participant in determining his representatives within
[00:19:11] the legislative institution. Behind every
[00:19:14] ballot paper were different expectations.
[00:19:17] For some, the priority is employment, and for others,
[00:19:20] health, education, and basic services. In
[00:19:24] other areas, local development issues and improving
[00:19:28] living conditions are paramount. The difference
[00:19:31] in priorities did not prevent them from converging
[00:19:34] on one question: What
[00:19:38] can change after the
[00:19:40] elections?
[00:19:43] I came to cast
[00:19:46] the elections. This is a trust that
[00:19:50] we must fulfill, a national duty.
[00:19:53] And I hope, God willing, that things will go well with these new
[00:19:57] candidates, and we expect good things, God
[00:20:00] willing, from them. Today, thank God, things have improved somewhat,
[00:20:04] but we are still below the required level.
[00:20:08] What we aspire to, what we want to achieve. There are many
[00:20:11] things concerning the city, such as roads
[00:20:15] and enacting laws that oblige
[00:20:18] these people of the municipalities
[00:20:21] to implement the programs they
[00:20:26] elections. We hope, as we see, that
[00:20:29] these processes are taking place in very good and
[00:20:32] natural conditions, and we expect that
[00:20:36] through us, we will participate in a national
[00:20:39] process, and we want, as they say, to embroider a set
[00:20:43] of the aspirations of the Moroccan citizen.
[00:20:49] our national duty, by interacting
[00:20:52] with political life within the country.
[00:20:55] We cast our votes. The election conditions at
[00:20:59] this beginning seem, thank God, to be fine. The atmosphere is conducive.
[00:21:02] We came to cast our votes and fulfill
[00:21:05] our national duty. We tried to arrive a little early so that
[00:21:09] we could go to our work, and thank God, everything
[00:21:12] went well. As a constitutional right, I came to exercise it, and my wife
[00:21:16] will also come, and my adult daughter will also come to vote, because
[00:21:20] if we don't vote, we won't determine our
[00:21:23] destiny and our future. I came this morning to cast my ballot before
[00:21:26] I go to
[00:21:29] electoral process in order to choose the nation's
[00:21:32] representatives and citizens' representatives.
[00:21:36] Like every proud Moroccan citizen of his Moroccan identity,
[00:21:40] zealous for his country, loving his homeland
[00:21:43] and his king, and for my Moroccan brothers, I came to
[00:21:46] participate. This is a necessary matter.
[00:21:50] Moroccan. with your vote, and I hope, God
[00:21:55] everyone.
[00:22:04] On election day, voters were not the only ones following
[00:22:08] the details of this day. From the moment the office opened,
[00:22:11] observers were present to follow the various stages of the electoral
[00:22:15] process and record what
[00:22:17] they observed during the voting hours.
[00:22:20] From the opening of the polling station to receiving voters,
[00:22:23] passing through the voting procedures, up to
[00:22:26] the closing of the station and counting the votes,
[00:22:29] the observer's task is distributed between monitoring
[00:22:33] and documenting observations.
[00:22:36] The role of electoral observers is divided
[00:22:40] into three stages. The first stage is the pre-election stage,
[00:22:44] by following the election campaign
[00:22:46] and the extent to which official actors adhere
[00:22:50] mainly to neutrality and equal opportunities. The second
[00:22:53] stage is election day, by
[00:22:56] monitoring the regularity of
[00:23:00] work at polling stations and the secrecy of
[00:23:03] voting. The final stage is the counting and aggregation
[00:23:07] stage, by, of course, counting
[00:23:10] the votes and preparing the minutes
[00:23:14] and announcing the results. The role of electoral
[00:23:17] observers is limited, according
[00:23:21] monitoring and neutrality.
[00:23:37] Some begin their election observation a year before the
[00:23:40] elections take place, and accompany the processes involved in
[00:23:43] issuing legal texts and public
[00:23:46] debate, leading up to election day and then to the
[00:23:50] results. While there are some who choose to observe the elections
[00:23:53] only from the campaign day until the voting
[00:23:57] process is completed and the results are announced. However, I can say that
[00:24:01] observation gives genuine credibility to
[00:24:04] elections. When there is observation, it means
[00:24:07] that the elections are open and that nothing
[00:24:10] in them can be hidden from citizens or from
[00:24:13] observers. First, the participation
[00:24:17] rate questions the legislative
[00:24:20] and executive authorities in their interaction with citizens,
[00:24:24] the daily
[00:24:25] issues
[00:24:28] of Moroccan society, and also in questioning the public
[00:24:32] policies that they have implemented during the past years.
[00:24:36] The second thing is that the voting method, especially
[00:24:39] 40,000 4,700 polling
[00:24:43] stations. The National Council for Human Rights
[00:24:46] visited more than 9,350
[00:24:50] offices, and our international
[00:24:53] observers visited more than 1,644,
[00:24:57] meaning that there were visits to a large
[00:25:00] number of offices. We can say that
[00:25:03] the voting in general proceeded in a normal
[00:25:07] atmosphere, but we also recorded
[00:25:10] and recorded two incidents between
[00:25:14] polling station 80 and polling station 87
[00:25:17] at Quds School in Tangier.
[00:25:20] Also, in a hearing session for the members, the chairman and members of the committee
[00:25:24] of the office.
[00:25:27] We will submit this report to the Public Prosecution to support
[00:25:31] the investigation procedures that were opened yesterday. So, out of
[00:25:34] two polling stations, one experienced
[00:25:37] an infringement of the transparency
[00:25:40] of the voting. Out of 4,700 polling stations,
[00:25:44] the voting, for us, was fair.
[00:25:47] It can have indicators of integrity
[00:25:50] and a basis for the decision of
[00:25:54] these two polling stations to be clear, firstly
[00:25:57] legally, and the necessary procedures.
[00:26:00] The presence of observers adds another layer to the electoral
[00:26:03] scene. In addition to the voter who comes
[00:26:07] to vote, there are those who follow the process from
[00:26:10] a different angle and record the details of an election
[00:26:14] day that extends for hours.
[00:26:52] As the end of the voting approaches,
[00:26:55] attention shifts from monitoring the voting to a more
[00:26:58] sensitive stage: the counting.
[00:27:01] Here, the ballot papers that
[00:27:04] are transformed into numbers, and from there to
[00:27:07] results.
[00:27:14] Ladies and gentlemen, Moroccan voters headed
[00:27:16] throughout election day to polling stations
[00:27:19] to exercise their constitutional right freely
[00:27:23] and with full respect for the secrecy
[00:27:26] of the ballot and the integrity of the process and counting
[00:27:29] in the presence of representatives of the candidate lists. The
[00:27:33] voting process proceeded across the national territory
[00:27:37] in normal and good conditions, with the exception of some
[00:27:40] isolated incidents that did not affect the course of the process,
[00:27:44] thanks to the comprehensive mobilization
[00:27:47] of the various authorities and concerned departments,
[00:27:49] the commitment of polling station members, the cooperation
[00:27:53] of party and candidate representatives,
[00:27:56] and the voters' spirit of responsibility and citizenship.
[00:28:00] context, the national participation rate
[00:28:04] reached
[00:28:05] 38.08%
[00:28:08] of the total national electorate, compared to
[00:28:11] 50.86%
[00:28:14] in 2021 and
[00:28:16] 42.27%
[00:28:19] in 2016. Thus, the September 23rd election
[00:28:22] saw 6 million
[00:28:26] male and female voters. Citizen turnout at
[00:28:29] the ballot boxes was as high as usual.
