Moroccan-Lebanese business council holds first meeting

The Moroccan-Lebanese business council will hold its first meeting in Morocco this March 24 to review ways of enhancing economic partnership and rev up trade exchange between the two Arab countries.

The agenda includes items on how to increase mutual investments, reinforce contacts between Moroccan and Lebanese entrepreneurs and prospects for setting up joint ventures in various industrial and commercial sectors.

The Moroccan-Lebanese business council was set up in July 1997 during the official visit to Morocco by former Lebanese Premier Rafik Hariri.
