Moroccan petition for Moroccan forum

[greenbage]

I start this petiton in support of the great work my good friend CASA has been doing in promoting the great country of Morocco.

Casa & Soufian keep up the good work and hello to all the newcomers

Casa, TooNs, Yazoo, Atlaslion there are more but I dont know all their names...

UK
Greenbage

The Netherlands
Soufian

Belgium

Btw, do you know some moroccans active on the french boards??? Who maybe dont know about this section?

[empersouf]

Btw, I know the names of two other moroccan forummers, Sofiane and Madi, I dont know sure but they both are studying in Strasbourg.

We got one arab forumer for sure, don't know if he's moroccan or interested in a moroccan forum though

I'm studying @ Strassburg too :D :D

Aha, well than you could help me if you want.
I'm going to Saverne next month with school.
Me and a friend of mine want to sneak out and go to Strasbourg, cause it's close. We'll take the train. But we dont no what the sights are in Strasbourg? Can you tell me some things I should see. You know the touristic stuff...and a high tower or something from where you have a view on the city?

I don't know, I think the Cathedrale (d'muenster)...
for towers, I have a good view from the tower of the University of Chemistry, but you can't acess :(
I recommand you to visit french forums of SSC ;)

[SE9]

+9. Morocco's got some heavy projects going up, and deserves its own forum if there is enough interest!

[sofiane]

C'est une très bonne idée car le Maroc se développe vraiment avec tous ces nouveaux projets.
Tous pour un forum Maroc.

[TooNs]

I suggest that the sub-forum will be in English, with possibility to use french for non-english speaking people... :)

[Casa]

I suggest that the sub-forum will be in English, with possibility to use french for non-english speaking people... :)

I prefer it stays mostly english ,in orther to keep it international and to have more audience (french from time to time will be ok)
i think why Morocco is not well known internationally beside france is because we depend alot on french and most people in the planet speak english

Ya, I agree! as I said, french time to time, for people can't speak english :)

[conquest]

i dont know isnt it kind of early???

[Ali_B]

+11 Another Moroccan from Belgium who's supporting this initiative ...

[empersouf]

Well, I'll inform Jan about this petition.
But the moroccans have to stay active on these boards because otherwise we wont get our own forum.
I remember once the turkish wanted a subforum too. They got it, but after a while the subforum became unused. Because there were like 3-5 member active...
So with the 13 members active now, we might just save it, otherwise NOT....
And wouldnt it be a good idea if we got our own 'local' moderator. Because I think that helps the identity of the subforum. And the mods that should control the General Africa forum are barely looking in it! They even dont react. If some stupid guy shows up and makes sick threads/posts? Who's gonna clean it up?? Not those mods that should be because they arent looking...

[empersouf]

Btw, im +12:naughty:

[Casa]

you are totally right soufian , yesterday i was just great , atlas lion , toons, greepage and yazoo are pretty active but i don't know where are they today

also there are other moroccans in the european pages that don't know about it , it good if you can add the thread for the petition in ur signature to have more visibility for the others

there is an active forumer in francophone section called mohammed6 the same name as our king but i don't know if he is moroccan or not

[greenbage]

Hi casa and soufian i am still here fighting for a moroccan forum

muchas gracias por tu support y viva la amistad entre marruecos y espana

[dysan1]

If you will have enough members, and someone that actively monitors it, then i as a brother from the south have no problem with it.

[Gilgamesh]

[shayan]

gilgamesh you will be 16 i guess Sanluca Playa is 15 he said it in spanish i guess :P

[Dr. Dubai]

+ 17

I know a lot about the projects in Morocco, it's a beautiful country, and if there are more and more people coming I think we should have a talk with the mods and the admin about your own subforum.

Btw, if none of you feels like he or she must get the "coming" subforum clean, I'll take the job. It's not a big deal, I'll do it if you want:)

[AntonAmeneiro]

lol, casa, come on, you know I'm in no way against Morocco, I just disagree with you guys in certain issues, but that's all :)
And really, there's nothing to thank, you guys should have your own forum so we can all learn more about your country!

Enfait il faut combien de voix pour que le forum Maroc voit le jour?
Merci de me repondre.

[hossoso]

+22, I would love to see a forum for this country (in English, Spanish or French if possible). Anything that would facilitate greater exposure for irregularly featured locales would be a step in the right direction for this forum.

[Casa]

ca depend pas des voix, le responsable du forums doit voir que les forumers du nouvel forum sont active

[hossoso]

on second thought...

[hossoso]

If this is still in the nascent planning stage; I am only fluent in English and Spanish and would glean/contribute the most from/to a forum conducted in one of those languages. However, I appreciate that this is an international site and would greatly enjoy the images irrespective of the language the captions come in. Best of luck with the petition!

[Riyadhi]

count me in..

[Mosi-oa-Tunya]

I think you should get a forum. I know that South Africa has a forum, but Morocco has even greater potential than South Africa as it has bigger projects due to it's faster growing economy and doesn't have near the crime levels of SA and doesn't have AIDS either. From what I can see your highways in Morocco are better than the ones in SA as they were built in the last 10 years while in SA's were built 30 years ago under apartheid.

Also your tourism industry has great potential. There are five times as many five star hotels in Morocco than SA and unlike SA they maintain their standards too!

I think that by 2025 Morocco will surpass South Africa in terms of GDP as it doesn't have the social problems inherited from apartheid and already is ranked higher on the Human Development Index than SA.

I also think there should be a forum for Egypt.

[Harkeb]

^^ don't talk out of your ass! You might as well stay away, if you are here to stir up sh** with your crap talk. What do you know about South Africa? Do you suffer of 'small penis syndrome'? Morocco can and never will be greater than South Africa, point.

As for a Morocco forum, simply pm 'Thryve'- simpler than mobilizing a mob...

[muckigfutz]

Well South Africa is hosting the World Cup in 2010, and Morocco isn't and never will.

[Casa]

guys we are here to support the moroccan forum, and i don't think that Mosi-oa-Tunya is a moroccan i never saw him in the forum he wants just to create trouble. please south africans calm down. yes is true south africa is doing very good now and it's the most develloped country in africa, but also Morocco is doing good this last year and i hope that he will be as develloped as south africa soon, it will be a + for africa i guess
please people nobody is better than the other each country has its potential and its specificities , and we should be very happy for any country knowing progress specially from africa concerning world cup, it was a competition SA got it , congratulations it was a competition and we are happy that our friends the south african got it, and we hope we will get it next time with the support of our friends south africans

[hossoso]

Yeah...Harkerb, there is no SA~Moroccan competition here, so don't acknowledge it or participate in it. This thread is not an attempt at groupthink or mobilization of a mob, it is a good way to gauge prospective interest in a Moroccan forum and should be taken at the face-value input of regular contributors not flash-in-the-pan trolls. There is no place for rivalry in this thread and any moves to subvert its agenda should be ignored.

[Harkeb]

^^ sorry...didnt mean to lash out at Morocco. I'm happy & support developments across the continent, wherever. This will only increase Africa's stature and bode well for the continents' future. Thanks for keeping us posted on Moroccon developments.

Exactly, I consider myself a media savvy person but in America there is an obvious lack of coverage of Africa in every medium; be it TV, newspapers, radio, internet, etc... A lot of us are interested in the area but we have no outlet to keep us informed on day-to-day activities or cultural nuances.

It is pathetic and incomprehensible that someone had to use this forum to trash SA but I hope it does not impede the creation of another window looking into the African continent. I enjoy reading and learning about cities and life in SA and I hope to be able to have the same access to every other country in Africa.

I have never been to Morocco, though I would like to go there for a few weeks, it's very interesting and beautiful country with amazing culture. It's a shame that I know it only from books, photos and videos.

I wish you luck. Greetings to all Moroccans :)

Keep up the great work for a Moroccan forum we deserve one.

We still need more support from our brothers and sisters in Morocco, and overseas in Europe.

More great news for Morocco new flights from Ryan Air to Morocco.

2 routes and 1 million passengers:
Ryanair signs agreement with Morocco
Ryanair and the Government of Morocco signs a five year agreement to develop low cost air access and tourism to the country from Ryanair’s bases throughout Europe. - We are delighted to make this joint announcement with the Government of Morocco. This represents a singularly important initiative in the development of tourism and business for the country, said Michael Cawley in Ryanair.


The agreement covers most of the regional airports in Morocco and involves the commitment by Ryanair to develop up to 20 routes delivering almost 1 million passengers per annum by the end of the five year period.

Announcing the agreement in Rabat today, Ryanair’s Deputy Chief Executive, Michael Cawley said:

- We are delighted to make this joint announcement with the Government of Morocco. This represents a singularly important initiative in the development of tourism and business for the country. The Government has recognised that low cost air access is a growth vehicle for tourism throughout Europe and by joining the Open Skies regime and embracing Europe’s leading low fares airline, the Government in Morocco has made a clear statement about its intentions to develop its tourism industry in the next five years.


Ryanair’s commitment to establish up to 20 routes and carry close to 1 million passengers per annum on flights to Morocco is a vote of confidence by the airline in the excellence and attractiveness of Morocco as a destination both for weekend breaks, mid-week trips and longer holidays. Our low fares will also help ex-patriate Moroccans to see their families more often and facilitate local businesses in accessing markets with low fare routes including those already announced to both Frankfurt and Marseille.

Ryanair will be making many more new route announcements in Morocco over the coming months and years as we build on the solid basis which this long term agreement provides. I congratulate the Government of Morocco on this initiative and look forward to working successfully with it to develop its tourism and other business”.

Kindest regards

I know that i'm a quite new member, but it doesn't mean that i didn't have a look in the forums before answering !
I saw the Good job of Casa (Thank you so much brother :okay: ) and i hope we'll be able to have a forum for Morocco, -Not only because i'm a Moroccan girl but also because of the fact that there are forums for the other African Coutries-

I hope we'll be able to have ours :(

[Matthias Offodile]

Well, I am also in favour that Marocco should have its own sub-forum because the country is really on the move and rocks:) :okay: :dj: It would be nice to see it on skyscrapercity...but one thing that saddens me is that if the Maroccans leave, who will visit the sub-saharan Africa thread then...I fear that it might peter out and die down, too few people.....:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

after i emailed all the moderators in the middle east and african section about our request, i got a reply from thryve, wich i thank a lot for his support and his nice reply
in his reply he said that he will conduct a feasibility study and also will contact SSC administrative staff about our request. which is very encouraging
He also added that he must be sure that the members who have signed the petition would visit the section and post there regularly

Go GO Morocco and thanks to all our supporters

[eklips]

I can't say that I would be a very regular visitor even though I signed, but an occasional one? Definitly!

[Bodrum]

I visit Moroccan threads quite regularly ;) It's not a surprise while I'm growingly fascinated with this country :)

[thryve]

Your dedication has paid off, and it's been a pleasure to work with CASA.

A formal announcement is to be made today. Surprise!
