Egyptian - Moroccan businessmen's council convenes in Cairo

The Egyptian - Moroccan businessmen's council will convene its third session in Cairo on October 13 on the margin of the visit of Moroccan Minister of Industry, Trade and Handicrafts Alami Tazi to Egypt.

The council's second meeting, held in Casablanca during June, made an evaluation of the commercial exchange average between the two states and determined obstacles obstructing its increase.

The council issued many recommendations, among which are facilitating procedures for getting entry visa for businessmen, increasing the number of air trips between the two countries, and reducing travel prices on airplanes as well as air shipping prices and phone calls.

The council also suggested facilitating the transfer of funds between the two states to encourage the establishment of joint projects like a joint database and extending the line of the Moroccan navigation company which links Casablanca with Banghazi to reach Alexandria harbor
