The question of comparing capabilities is not absent from the Moroccans ’talk, whenever the data of the Corona virus are updated, as approaching the statistics of all countries through the media has made a great spectrum that prepares the Kingdom’s mistakes and achievements, to stop the creeping pandemic.
The question of comparing capabilities is not absent from the Moroccans ’talk, whenever the data of the Corona virus are updated, as approaching the statistics of all countries through the media has made a great spectrum that prepares the Kingdom’s mistakes and achievements, to stop the creeping pandemic.
A large segment of Moroccans expresses approval of the pre-eminence with which the authorities dealt with the virus, compared to the European countries that were severely affected; but it regards its approval by criticizing the ability of the Moroccan health system to manage patients as required.
As for the widespread comments, the failure of Europe and America to contain the epidemic at the health level directly means the difficulty of betting on the Moroccan public hospital, by invoking personal experiences with them with medical services, as it sometimes starts from self-surrender.
A wave of irony was launched by government officials in Morocco talking about the need of European countries for locally manufactured masks; however, it took a serious nature after the community members talked about the fact that the available masks were directed to hospitals and patients, while the needs of citizens remain.
Karim Ayesh, a research professor in the social sciences, believes that Moroccans resort every time and in various events and areas to making comparisons between what is available in Morocco and neighboring countries, sometimes about the abundance of supply in vegetables compared to the eastern neighbor.
On the other hand, Ayesh adds, in a statement to Hespress, the comparison in the cost of fish with the northern neighbor and the differences in administrative behavior and the capabilities and scientific and technological capabilities compared to France, the United States and East Asian countries.
The researcher at the Rabat Studies Center confirms that this behavior was noticed by many international media after the comparison that Moroccans made regarding covering the national needs of masks, and the inability of Western countries to do this for their health frameworks first, then their citizens second.
Ayesh records that the vast majority of Moroccans consider the measures taken by the state to be highly proactive for a developing country, compared to the delay in implementing preventive measures in developed countries, due to which the epidemic spread in great degrees and resulted in deaths of tens of thousands and economic losses.
The declared author of Hespress explained that when publishing any global arrangement for the United Nations in any field where Morocco is in the last ranks, Moroccans contradict official speeches that consider Moroccan economic and social initiatives and plans to be pioneering at the global level.
Ayesh added: Seeing what is announced through government platforms through which Moroccans believe that what will be implemented is similar to the strategies of developed countries, so the comparison sometimes becomes a kind of indirect criticism, and a reminder that there are public funds spent and a national effort made, but it did not rise in its application or results To the level.
