King Mohammed VI is a "reformer" king who is keen to ensure the rule of law and human rights, the US publication Forbes Magazine says in its latest issue.
Under the leadership of the King, "the kingdom of Morocco has made a series of democratic constitutional reforms" over the past thirteen years, says Richard Miniter, author of the article and a bestselling author. The reforms gave rise to the latest legislative elections which resulted in opposition parties controlling the government, emphasizing the freedom of the Moroccan press, as well as the constitution guarantees to protect the rights of women and religious minorities Forbes Magazine highlights the comprehensive development in Morocco's southern provinces, in stark contrast to the harsh living conditions in the polisario-run Tindouf camps.
