00:00In Morocco, His Majesty the King Mohammed VI received yesterday in Casablanca the Mauritanian
00:27Mohamed Oudechère El Razouani.
00:29Back on the strong times of their meeting in Zonestre.
00:37The sovereign who addressed yesterday a message to the participants of the second national
00:41session of the advanced regionalization that must end today in Tanché.
00:50The new authorities in Damascus say they want to contribute to regional peace.
00:54A will is displayed at the end of the first official meeting between Ahmed El Chare,
00:59the new leader of Syria, and an American delegation.
01:07We start this day with the visit of the Mauritanian president to Morocco.
01:11Mohamed Oudechère El Razouani was received yesterday in Casablanca by His Majesty the King Mohammed VI.
01:18This meeting is part of the solid relations of trust and cooperation between the two countries
01:25and the two brotherly peoples.
01:27On this occasion, the two heads of state congratulated each other on the positive evolution of the
01:34Moroccan-Mauritanian partnership in all areas.
01:37They also affirmed their determination to develop strategic projects, particularly
01:43the African Gas Duke and the initiative aimed at enhancing the access of the states of the Sahel to the Atlantic Ocean.
01:55After Casablanca, in the direction of Tanché, the city of Detroit has been hosting the second national sessions
02:01of the advanced regionalization since yesterday.
02:04On this occasion, His Majesty the King Mohammed VI addressed a message to the participants.
02:09Now, Lina Amrini returns to the main lines of this royal message.
02:16His Majesty the King Mohammed VI called for the development of a clear and consensual roadmap
02:21that will allow to define the strategic orientations for the next stage of the implementation of the
02:27advanced regionalization project.
02:30The sovereign also called for the continuation of the efforts deployed to respond to the different
02:36challenges present and to come posed by this structuring project.
02:41His Majesty the King cited as such this major challenge on the effective application of the
02:47national administrative deconcentration chart, namely the audit and operationalization of
02:54the attributions of territorial collectivities, notably regional councils, the reinforcement
03:00of participatory democracy at the regional and local level, in accordance with the provisions of the
03:06Moroccan constitution.
03:08It is also a challenge that has come to the application of the principle of correlation of
03:13responsibility to the rewriting of accounts, to the improvement of the attractiveness of territorial
03:19spaces to attract productive investments, to the capacity of the regions to design
03:25innovative financing mechanisms, to face certain crises and to adapt to the transformations
03:31of today and to the impacts of tomorrow.
03:34Thus, as regards the challenge of the effective application of the national administrative
03:39deconcentration chart, His Majesty the King underlined the delay recorded by most of the
03:44ministerial departments, noting that despite the importance of this project, its implementation
03:51remains full of gaps, notably in the field of priority skills related to investment.
03:57With regard to the challenge of the audit and operationalization of the attributions of
04:03territorial collectivities, notably regional councils, the Sovereign stated that this is
04:09one of the essential conditions to implement the work of advanced regionalization and
04:15to boost the dynamic of economic and social development of Morocco.
04:20With regard to the challenge of strengthening participatory democracy at the regional and
04:24local level, in accordance with the provisions of the constitution, His Majesty the King
04:29insisted on the importance of the involvement of citizens as well as associations of civil
04:35society in the process of elaboration, preparation, application, monitoring and evaluation of
04:42public policies taken with the elected councils to achieve the set objectives.
04:48With regard to the fourth challenge, linked to the principle of correlation of responsibility
04:52to the re-issuing of accounts in the domain of the management of territorial affairs,
04:56the Sovereign underlined that the regions and the other territorial collectivities have
05:01won the bet of development and operated a break with the conventional modes of management
05:08by adopting mechanisms of governance, democracy, legitimacy and efficiency.
05:14With regard to the challenge of improving the attractiveness of territorial spaces to
05:20attract productive investments, the Sovereign considers that the regions must now seize
05:26the favorable opportunities and highlight their own assets.
05:30With regard to the challenge linked to the ability of the regions to design new financing
05:36His Majesty the King has indicated that the experience and practice have shown that the
05:40traditional forms of financing, strategies and measures put in place no longer allow
05:46to meet the current challenges.
05:48The seventh and last challenge mentioned by the Sovereign is that of the ability of the
05:54regions to face certain crises and to adapt to the transformations of today and the impacts
06:00of tomorrow.
06:02How to accelerate the pace on the path of regionalization?
06:08How to better manage the issue of water and household waste while improving public transport?
06:14To answer this question, four framework conventions were signed on the first day yesterday
06:20of these regionalization sessions.
06:23Let's follow this report from Emma Fikry, Abdelsamad Mountassir and Alaa Ben Ali.
06:29Focusing on the theme of advanced regionalization between the challenges of today and tomorrow,
06:35the second national regionalization sessions started on Friday in Tangier with the signing
06:41of four framework conventions signed by members of the government and presidents of the 12
06:46regions of the Kingdom.
06:47The President of the Association of the Regions of Morocco insisted on the imperative of the
06:51moment to accelerate the operationalization of regionalization to succeed in meeting the
06:57challenges of territorial development.
07:06The first framework convention focuses on the acceleration of the operationalization
07:11of regionalization in order to put in place a common methodology to achieve this.
07:17We are talking here about the definition of specializations, decentralization and financing.
07:23The second convention focuses on the management of water.
07:26The regions have already injected 10 billion dirhams to face this issue.
07:35Mbarka Bouaida also emphasized that this meeting represents an important strategic workshop
07:40that deals with the implementation of public policies on the ground in the territorial domain
07:46and aims to achieve territorial justice.
07:54The third convention focuses on the management of household waste.
07:5927 billion have been allocated to this issue, 10% of which will be given to the regions.
08:05Finally, the fourth convention focuses on public transport and the extension of mobility
08:11to achieve integrated regional development.
08:14An envelope of 11 billion dirhams has been awarded to this issue.
08:20One-third, or 3.4 billion dirhams, will be given to the regions.
08:32This second edition of the National Settlements of Advanced Regionalization
08:36constitutes an opportunity to carry out a collective and participatory assessment
08:40of the state of progress of the implementation of the multiple components of this project.
08:45The National Settlements of Advanced Regionalization have known the participation
08:49of several government officials, regional presidents, elected representatives of the municipal councils
08:54and experts, as well as political and economic actors from Morocco and abroad,
08:59with, according to the organizers, more than 1,500 participants present,
09:03160 international guests and more than 45,000 participants from afar.
09:10In the rest of the news, a Yemeni missile of the rebel Houthis
09:14exploded today in Tel Aviv after the failure of its interception by the Iron Dome,
09:19the Israeli air defense system.
09:2216 injured, victims of glass shatters.
09:25They were transported to two hospitals in the region.
09:29This strike comes two days after Israeli bombings against ports
09:33and the energy infrastructure of the Houthis in Yemen,
09:37which killed nine people, according to the rebels.
09:43The new authorities in Damascus, which overthrew Bashar al-Assad
09:47after more than 13 years of conflict, say they want to contribute to regional peace
09:52and build strategic partnerships with the countries of the region.
09:56A will was issued at the end of the first official meeting yesterday
10:01between Ahmed al-Shareh, the new leader of Syria, and an American diplomatic delegation.
10:07Just after this meeting, Washington announced that it had abandoned
10:11the offer of rewards for the arrest of the new Syrian leader,
10:15who is no longer considered a terrorist by the United States.
10:19The Christmas shutdown will not take place.
10:25The United States has just avoided a budgetary paralysis
10:31that would have sent hundreds of thousands of officials home for the holidays,
10:38putting an end to a tumultuous sequence of several days involving Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
10:44The Congress has widely adopted a law that ensures the financing of the federal state until mid-March.
10:50The text includes more than $100 billion in aid for recently devastated American regions
10:56by natural disasters.
11:02German Chancellor Olaf Scholz today went to Magdeburg, a murderous city,
11:08in a car attack on his Christmas market.
11:12Two people were killed and 68 injured.
11:15The motivation of the attack remains unclear despite the arrest of the presumed author,
11:21a Saudi doctor.
11:24In 2016, Germany was also the target of a bloody attack on a Christmas market truck
11:32that killed 12 people in the heart of Berlin.
11:38Back in the Kingdom, in Morocco, where the General Directorate of National Security
11:43continues to digitize its services.
11:46Its latest born, e-Police, will certainly do a lot of good for citizens.
11:50What makes it so special?
11:53Answer in this report by Majamal, Youssef Oumou and Dinamrini.
12:00e-Police, the digital portal of the General Directorate of National Security,
12:04has just been launched this Friday, December 20.
12:07This portal brings together several police administrative services
12:11in an interactive space accessible to all Moroccan citizens.
12:16It is a portal designed by the teams of the DGSN
12:20and which now includes several existing services.
12:23And then the new service of dematerialization of the anthropometric file.
12:29From now on, the citizen will no longer need to move to make his request.
12:33He can also choose where he would like to retrieve his file,
12:39even if it is in a city other than the one where he resides.
12:44He will be notified of the availability of the file at the center he has chosen by SMS and by e-mail.
12:52The design of the e-Police portal is based on a technological approach
12:57aiming to bring together all the services provided by the DGSN.
13:01The first service available is the online request of the anthropometric file.
13:06This will allow citizens to carry out this process
13:09via their electronic national identity card
13:12and receive a notification to withdraw the document in a short time.
13:17Other services are also in preparation
13:21and will be added to the e-Police portal,
13:25such as the dematerialization of the request for the residence certificate,
13:28the renewal of the national card or the declaration of loss.
13:33Because today we have technological bricks
13:37that allow us to lift the constraints we had before.
13:41With digital identity, with electronic payment,
13:46many procedures can now be carried out remotely.
13:50e-Police also offers other services,
13:53such as the appointment for the identity card,
13:56the registration for the police competition and much more.
13:59This launch marks the first phase of a project to digitize police public services.
14:05In the future, other documents such as the residence certificate
14:09and the renewal of the national card will be integrated.
14:13The goal is to simplify the procedures,
14:16guarantee a police of proximity and optimize services for citizens.
14:22We remain in the kingdom where the Barid Al Marib group,
14:26in coordination with the Ministry of Youth, Culture, Communication and UNESCO,
14:32has issued a special stamp on the occasion of the first anniversary
14:36of the registration of the Malhoun
14:38to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
14:41The UNESCO presentation ceremony of this stamp was held yesterday
14:45at the Barid Al Marib Museum in Rabat, Switzerland.
14:49The Malhoun, Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
14:53The name of the new stamp issued by the Barid Al Marib group
14:56on the occasion of the first anniversary of the registration of the Malhoun
14:59on the representative list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity of UNESCO.
15:04This stamp, whose mission was coordinated with the Ministry of Youth,
15:08Culture and Communication, as well as UNESCO,
15:11illustrates a Malhoun musical troupe in full performance,
15:14dressed in traditional Moroccan costumes,
15:16on a blue background decorated with refined motifs inspired by Moroccan Zellige.
15:23One year ago, the Malhoun was registered as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of UNESCO.
15:29The Malhoun is a traditional, popular, typically Moroccan art,
15:34but we also want to celebrate it together, one year after its registration.
15:39This is what we are doing today by launching this special stamp
15:43that honors all Malhoun musicians in Morocco.
15:48A stamp is nothing more than a very small rectangle of paper, of course official,
15:52but we hope that with this small stamp, which will travel a lot to Morocco around the world,
15:57there will be a little more very rich heritage,
16:00very rich Moroccan cultural heritage,
16:02which will travel and make Morocco's cultural diversity better known.
16:08A philatelic creation to highlight this emblematic poetical-musical art,
16:13pillar of Moroccan cultural heritage and living symbol of the transmission of traditions.
16:19The Malhoun is part of the flower of Moroccan know-how.
16:26It is an integral part of our secular cultural heritage.
16:31It embodies the Moroccan traditions and human feelings.
16:36It is an art that has shaken the Moroccans for several centuries.
16:40The Malhoun has been in Morocco since the beginning of the Corona pandemic.
16:45Through this special show, Balid El Maghreb reaffirms his commitment
16:49in favor of the promotion of Moroccan heritage.
16:51This stamp celebrates not only the Malhoun, but also the role of the Kingdom of Morocco
16:55in the preservation and appreciation of this immaterial treasure,
16:59symbol of its rich cultural heritage.
17:03She is still not sleeping.
17:05Since Tuesday in Côte d'Ivoire, the chef Zainab Bansé has challenged herself
17:10to cook about 15,000 dishes and beat the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon.
17:17So Abidjan, the Ivorians, ensure the atmosphere to push Zainab to take up this challenge.
17:23Mel Berchel and Herman Doggo.
17:26The agora of the municipality of Koumissi in Abidjan is unrecognizable.
17:30For six days, this vibrant place has become the center of national attention.
17:34In Côte d'Ivoire, chef Zainab Bansé, armed with her utensils,
17:38aims the 120 hours of uninterrupted cooking
17:41to register Côte d'Ivoire in the Guinness World Record.
17:45She decided to prepare more than 15,000 dishes.
17:50We have already delivered 200 dishes to the orphanage in Benjerville.
17:57We have delivered 160 dishes to the village of Eswes in Abobo.
18:03And tomorrow we will deliver to another orphanage.
18:08This challenge goes beyond the borders of gastronomy.
18:10It has become a symbol of gathering and celebration.
18:13The Ivorian artists offer support to those who aim to exceed the 93 hours of cooking
18:22currently held by the Nigerian Ila Bassi, while bringing a festive atmosphere to the event.
18:28For five days, three days already, everyone is in it.
18:32Internet users, artists, Lambda men.
18:35And it's hot. When you support a country like that, it's a country that will move forward.
18:41But when we are always at war, we don't want war.
18:44Côte d'Ivoire doesn't know war. We like to have fun. We like to share joy.
18:48We come here every day for three days.
18:50Because it is the name of Côte d'Ivoire that is in front of us.
18:53So we are all ambassadors of Côte d'Ivoire.
18:55And our presence is necessary here to give it positive vibes.
19:00That's why we are here.
19:02Zainab is not alone in this monumental challenge.
19:05The Ivorian population mobilizes massively to encourage her.
19:09I think we have seen with the efforts of Côte d'Ivoire.
19:11When the Ivorians are behind you, there is no failure.
19:14She will beat the record. She will go beyond.
19:16And the record, where she will put it, will be due next year.
19:19We are confident. That's why we are here.
19:22The Guinness Challenge of Chef Zainab Bassi has become much more than a simple culinary performance.
19:27It symbolized unity, sharing and the resilience of an entire people.
19:34This is the end of this newscast.

19:36The news continues on Mediantv and Mediantv Africa.
