Anti-government protests in Morocco planned on Facebook


08:44 |

Anti-government protests in Morocco planned on Facebook - The Economic Times: "Moroccan authorities have okayed an anti-government protest being planned on the popular social networking site Facebook, a media report said.

The media report said several Moroccan youth movements have announced on Facebook that they are planning to organise an Egypt-style anti-government protest Feb 20, a move apparently welcomed by the government.

'We intend to reassure those who are organising protests on the internet that this is an entirely normal thing and is part of the democratic life of Morocco ,' local newspaper Hespress quoted Telecommunications Minister Khaled al-Nasiri as saying.

The protest will counter a rally planned this Sunday by government supporters, which is also being organised on Facebook."
