Japan donates Morocco $1.8 million to complete fishing village
Morocco-Japan, Economics, 7/24/2003
Japan has donated Morocco 18 million Dirhams (US$ 1.8 million) to complete the second phase of the Sidi Hsain fishing village in the northeastern province of Nador.
The fishing village's overall cost is estimated at 61 million DH (US$ 6.4 million). The Japanese donation is the fourth of the kind to Morocco's program of traditional fishing promotion, after its contribution to three other similar villages on the Mediterranean coast. Works to start next August will comprise port and ground facilities, including a wholesale market, a workshop for the repair of boats and an ice-making unit.
The donation document was signed on Tuesday by Morocco's fisheries minister, Tayeb Rhafes, and Japan's ambassador to Morocco Yoshitaka Kwamura.
