The Newspapers Kiosks

Each morning, the newspaper sellers have a great number of visitors but, among the five or six persons looking at the newspapers, only one or two will buy one. The others, just take a look and let down. Some sellers find THE solution : they rent the newspaper at 0,50 dhs. It is clear that the best way to kill a newspaper or a magazine is to rent or take a look without buying it. This is a kind of pirating the efforts of the others. We should be respectful to people writing newspapers and magazine and buy whenever we are convinced by the contents.

Taxi drivers

Sometimes, they give us the impression to be in rally race where the looser will be hanged in the Jemaa el Fna Square. In fact, whether small or big ones, once you rise up your hand, they give it a halt and come to you without taking care of the other drivers next to them. So bicycle and motorcycle drivers should be aware otherwise…they will have an accident.
It is very nice to be at the service of the customers, but a good respect of the driving laws is also a way to also respect your customers.

The Beggars

When we see the great number of beggars in the streets, we get afraid. Are we so poor ? To tell the truth, it becomes a phenomenon, a job where people have fixed the rules. Some leaders monopolies the market and decided those who will stand before banks and the others before chemistries. Others just wait and, when they see somebody "interesting", put you under pressure to receive money.
Dear beggars, we are certainly for social help, but we are totally against swindling.
