Rabat — Managing Director of Bayt Mal Al-Quds Agency M’daghri Abdelkebir Alaoui said the donations to the Agency amounted to 79,735,659 dirhams last year.

In an address, read on his behalf by the Agency’s diplomatic advisor Mehdi Alaoui, at a press conference, held on Thursday in Rabat, to present the 2010 report and the Agency’s achievements and prospects, M’Daghri stressed that Morocco’s contribution represents 80% of all donations, which made the Kingdom the main purveyor of the Agency.

Regarding the catering for the Al-Quds’ orphan bank account (Kafala), M’Daghri said the agency has managed to cover the 2010-2011 programme, thanks to the 4.6 million-donation of HM king Mohammed VI.

“HM the King, chairman of Al-Quds Committee, has promoted heavily Bayt Mal Al-Quds, through his ongoing support to its activities, allowing the Agency to ensure donors’ confidence and respect of Al Quds’ partners, who carry out their projects in priority sectors,” said the the Agency’s Managing Director.

As a result, said M’daghri, significant efforts by the Agency to achieve excellent results have a direct effect on the daily lives of the Al-Quds’ inhabitants.

“Despite the complexity of the procedures for obtaining building and restoration permits, the Agency has funded in 2010 projects estimated at 12 million dollars,” he said.
