Morocco is much, much poorer than Egypt.



According to economist Najib Akesbi, "entire sectors" of the economy serve as sources of income for the rich elite.



According to Akesby, King Mohammed VI and his family control most farmland and the main companies in the industrial, services, commercial, distribution and export sectors. (Poverty time bomb ticks in Morocco - Africa - Mail & Guardian Online)
