they are our traditional partners but morocco had to go beyond. morocco knt grow because it has borders that are closed with algeria so it needed to go to west africa to expand business. >> what business are you working with that want to develop in africa? >> mainly in the services area, financial services and insurance. telecom has five licenses in africa. they are very aggressive when they go towards there and they are not in the mine business. they are in the services where they are strong and have a strong advantage. >> what sort of information are you collecting to help them do business in other african countries? >> we are collecting for them firsthand information that are coming from real people and not analyzed by machines but analyzed by humans. this is the advantage we have. we know how to train people and have people that have skills and that are well formed and provide for them the right training to analyze this information and we understand it better because we are africa amongst africans, we are in our region and know how to deal wit

morocco comes to mind. morocco is the center of a very moderate islam which is looked to throughout the region as a place to try to help moderate some of the extremist and have that kind of influence broadly beyond its borders. we try to work with them to leverage that. >> other comments on the regional cooperation? , pardon me.rman one of the very specific things we are doing is also under the g-8 umbrella. it is specifically to have launched the transition fund. this is a multilateral partnership that is intended to provide assistance that alters -- bolsters reform efforts across the middle east and north africa, but also for economic cooperation and coordination and economic growth. the u.s. isfund, helping to marshal this international resource to advance economic reforms. the fund is administered by the world bank and fun proposals crafted by the governments in partnership with the international financial institutions provides technical assistance that support these economic reforms and opportunities f

i really hope so. >> tangier is morocco. always was morocco. and recently the country's leadership seems to have embraced it. in all its ill reputed glory. the days of predatory poets in search of literary inspiration and young flesh are probably over for good. hippies can just as easily get their bong rips in portland or peoria. but the good stuff, the real good stuff, the sounds and smells and the look of tangier, what you see and hear when you lean out the window and take it all in, that's here to stay. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >>> chances are you haven't been to this place. chances are this is a place you've never seen. other than maybe blurry cell phone videos, old black-and-white newsreels from world war ii. chances are bad things were happening in the footage you saw. myanmar, after 50 years of nightmare, something unexpected it happening here, and it's

that effect can be easily seen today in a living city, a city like fez, morocco. archaeologists have come to fez because the same high degree of specialization suggested by the ruins of ostia can be seen here in the flesh. the population and density of the old city of fez has remained the same since the 10th century. archaeologist david webster. the old city of fez had about 120,000 people for its total population. this would have been an equivalent of a population density of tens of thousands of people per square mile. now, the only reason why that was possible, especially in a nonindustrial context, was that you had a very effective agricultural environment around fez within, say, 15 or 20 miles radius. but you also had very effective forms of nonhuman transport -- donkeys, camels, horses, mules -- that could bring in all of the kinds of supplies that the city needed. now, that's one reason why you had such high population densities. one of the effects of really high population densities, of course, is to create very dense urban markets, lots of consumers concen
