SOS Tourism –Agadir CM 2030: In Taghazout, life is not good… worrying state of degradation of the colonial era

HIBAPRESS-RABAT-MK

Agadir is considered to be one of the most attractive cities in Morocco. A city that continues to develop and where several construction sites are underway for the greater good of the population and the many visitors who go there.

If the capital of Souss-massa is booming, the surrounding villages are in a worrying state of degradation, starting with the agglomeration of Taghazout (not to be confused with the bay of the same name which benefits from treatment for the wealthy), the famous beach popular with all, which looks more like a village from the colonial era than a modern city of the 21st century, a city where the infrastructure pushes you to flee it in the absence of parking areas, decent restaurants, fluid traffic and a lack of road signs and this in this entire “tourist” region.

Everything comes together to make life and stay unpleasant for people who live or who are passing through, like the many foreigners who have complained about the disorder and dirt that litter the streets and other places of this village, to believe that this region has neither elected officials nor authorities worthy of the name, yet Taghazout and its surroundings have immense potential, but suffer from the incompetence and laxity of those who are supposed to watch over the well-being of their citizens.

The same observation characterizes the villages of Aourir, Tamragh, Alma d’Immourane and Imi Ouaddar (dirt scattered everywhere, streets and roads in a deplorable state, disorder and laxity of elected officials and authorities…).

It is simply scandalous to see these towns and populations living in indifference, irresponsibility of municipal and government officials and yet the Head of Government is from the country and yet the region is designated to host matches of the 2030 World Cup, and therefore expected to welcome thousands of visitors. It is therefore very urgent to look into the situation of this marginalized and not so beautiful region to see. The image of the country and everything that has been achieved over the past quarter of a century are at stake.
