There is a group of citizens who need quick government turn-around, and direct support through facilities, exemptions, and consideration.
It is a very important group that carries a lot on its shoulders, and it lacks support in bearing the various burdens, despite it being a productive group, and it has a tangible effect in moving the wheels of the national economy.
They are the citizens of private enterprises of the middle class, and those around the middle, if you will. They are not big business, nor are they the owners of huge companies and institutions, nor are they among the owners of many millionaires.
They are also not government employees in the morning, and they practice private work in the evening, they are dedicated to working in the private sector mainly and only. They have businesses, offices and employees, and they depend mainly on one source of income from these offices, and examples are many, owners of law firms, engineering consultancy offices and others Engineering, medium contracting company owners, restaurant owners, and many scattered business sectors.
These, who are an important segment of citizens, have reduced a lot from the government, as they are not the owners of jobs, so they left it and gave others the opportunity to be employed, and the government does not pay them a share in the retirement law, and does not give them travel tickets, for example, like their counterparts in the government sector, because they made their way with efforts. Individuals, they established their own businesses, and hired employees through their offices and medium-sized companies, and contributed to the internal circulation of money, which are an important component of the national economy cycle.
Despite all of that, the support directed to them is almost non-existent, on the contrary, they are required to pay annual fees, annual renewals, annual residency permits for workers, and are required to have a monthly bill, and to secure the salaries of all their employees, with the same amounts that do not differ from the rest of the large companies, And the huge institutions, without having any preference for them, or facilities that help them to keep monthly sums, help them bear the rest of the costs of family life, for they are in the end of the matter citizens, they have families, children in schools, they have homes, and many other things!
Their persistence does not mean that they are making huge profits, for most of them are on the brink of a pit, and any shock can affect them, rather they feel that they may lose everything in an instant, as they are not immune to millions that support them, and if any of them loses their health due to disease or accident, and this Something may happen, everything is lost, there is no retirement salary, and no additional fixed income!
They do not ask for much, just facilities that help them and relieve them, so it is necessary to reconsider how they support their business, and classify them according to their years of service, their level of stability, and the extent of their contributions, and according to this classification they are given facilities, reductions and preferential prices in all government services, so that they can continue And expansion, and until they work comfortably, and at the end of the matter, every dirham that the government reduces from them, they in turn will return it to the local market and in the various sectors, so there is no loss at all from their support and interest in them, especially since they are very few, and they do not constitute a difference, nor a significant percentage In the size of the huge and full local market!
