THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON
Despite the vagaries of international finance and the stagnation of global growth, Asia continues to develop its growth to eventually become the world's largest economy, ahead of Europe and the United States. With the Year of the Dragon, the Asian economy is galvanized and multiplies its energy. Incentives offered by Morocco to the local and foreign investors can galvanize national and African economics, while absorbing some of the surplus productions of Asian Countries.
