Lagha Meets Business Owners Over Tax Debate
The article discussed a meeting between the leadership of the Authenticity and Modernity Party and the Business Federation. The discussion centered on a proposal to raise the minimum wage to 5,000 dirhams per month, which is a campaign promise made by the Liberal Party. Challenging the government, Chakjou at the same time emphasized the necessity for the government to issue a decree and implement it before the current administration ends. The Business Federation expressed its welcome to the idea of increasing wages but preferred reasonable increases rather than the maximum proposed amount. They suggested taxing wages through three brackets: exempting wages below 15,000 dirhams, applying a 10% rate to wages between 15,000 and 46,000 dirhams, and 20% on wages exceeding 46,000 dirhams, all while aiming to benefit their fiscal interests. Meanwhile, attempts by the export lobby to secure special support failed, with Chakjou stressing the importance of supporting the economic capacities of Moroccans, achieving stability and transparency within the framework of the economic reform starting in 2027. He highlighted the need to improve the quality of education, address student dropout issues, and reduce commercial intermediary loops, as well as protect producers from exploitation by middlemen, especially in agricultural products. He also noted that the youth unemployment rate stands at 27.2%, and that there are economic and social challenges related to empowering young people and achieving sustainable development in the country.
