He fielded questions from the audience on renewable energies in morocco, on investment in the health sector. The emergence of retirement facilities for northern Europeans in morocco elicited a great interest, followed by related questions on necessary services to western retirees that move to Morocco.

She was invited along with a business delegation from Orange County to come and visit Morocco and prospect for new opportunities. She was given a Moroccan crafted tea pot as a symbolic gift.

The following day, the team drove north on interstate 5 to Los Angeles, CA, where a town-hall meeting for the Southern California Moroccan American community was organized and held at the downtown Marriott hotel. The event was over booked and following a brief speech by Mr. Mekouar, the attendees lined up to ask various questions.
There were inquiries relating to import/export issues and the need for more transparent and readily available information to potential importers and exporters, others bemoaned the lack of transportation options between Morocco and the US, the sole Royal Air Maroc flight between NY and Casablanca is a drop in the water and is of no help to both Moroccan Americans or potential visitors. There were requests for help to entice American airline companies to open up new routes to Morocco. Mr. Adil Naji of Arabesque, Inc., spoke extensively on the benefit of MAC (the Moroccan American Coalition) that is currently being organized and its potential for streamlining communication among various Moroccan American Communities around the country
