I WAS very surprised to read the article published online on Sept 16, 2023, by The Star under the title “Morocco’s King keeps regal distance even in earthquake crisis”, given the fact that it relates to particular aspects that neither Moroccan nor objectively-oriented foreign media have witnessed in the way the King of Morocco, King Mohammed VI has been managing the aftermath of the huge earthquake that hit the Al Haouz region in Morocco.
The very first striking untrue detail lies in the title itself, which underlines that the King keeps a regal distance even in the earthquake crisis.
