Abdul Samad Qiuh, Minister of Transport and Logistics, praised the tasks undertaken by the dual transport sector, during the weekly oral question session in the House of Representatives, and even described the “hook” as “obsolete”, which attracted a torrent of criticism.
The new minister, who joined Aziz Akhannouch’s government during the last amendment, defended dual transportation professionals, stressing his desire to work on improving the working conditions of this group without harming the interests of other groups.
In addition, in his first appearance in Parliament, Qayuh called for working with the Ministry of the Interior to expedite the issuance of licenses for dual transport, which was widely welcomed among those working in this sector.
In response to this issue, the national secretary of the Moroccan Coordination of Dual Transport Sector Professionals, Abdel Samad Soussan, expressed his optimism in the words of the minister who comes from the largest region known for intense dual transport activity.
Soussan explained, “The Minister knows well the importance of dual transit and the services it provides, and the large number of dual transit vehicles in the Taroudant region, where he comes from, and he has represented him in Parliament for years… and therefore, he knows the challenges that professionals face.”
However, on the other hand, the national secretary of the Moroccan Coordination of Dual Transport Sector Professionals considered that “the Ministry of Transport and Logistics does not have the power to impose the decision on the Ministry of the Interior in order to expedite the convening of regional committees headed by workers to issue and decide on dual transport licenses.”
In the face of this situation, the same professional actor called for “learning from the mistakes in granting licenses and working to ensure that double transfer is at the same level, which will contribute to ending the dilemma of secret transfer.”

How does the ministry plan to address public concerns regarding the transition from the “hook” system to new transport methods?
**Interview with Abdul Samad Qiuh, Minister of Transport and Logistics**
**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us today, Minister Qiuh. During the recent session in the House of Representatives, you touched upon the dual transport sector’s functions and described the “hook” system as “obsolete.” What led to this assessment?
**Minister Qiuh:** Thank you for having me. My comments about the “hook” system stem from an extensive review of our transport infrastructure and its efficiency. In today’s fast-paced world, we need systems that are adaptable and responsive to modern demands. The “hook,” as it stands, lacks the innovation and flexibility we require to move forward.
**Interviewer:** You’ve received quite a bit of criticism after those remarks. How do you respond to those who argue that the “hook” system still serves an important purpose in our current transport landscape?
**Minister Qiuh:** Constructive criticism is a vital part of governance, and I welcome it. While I acknowledge that the “hook” has been an essential feature in our transport sector, we must evolve. This doesn’t mean disregarding its contributions but rather integrating new technologies and methods to improve efficiency and service quality. Progress requires change.
**Interviewer:** Can you elaborate on what steps your ministry plans to take to modernize the transport system?
**Minister Qiuh:** Absolutely. We are looking into various initiatives that include upgrading our infrastructure, investing in smart transport systems, and enhancing logistics services. Furthermore, we aim to promote public and private partnerships that will foster innovation and bring in fresh solutions to existing challenges.
**Interviewer:** what would you say to citizens who may be concerned about changes in transport logistics affecting their daily lives?
**Minister Qiuh:** Change can be daunting, but I assure citizens that any transition will be handled thoughtfully. Our goal is to enhance accessibility and reliability. We will prioritize community input and work diligently to ensure that the changes we implement serve the public’s best interests. Their well-being is at the heart of our transport strategy.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for your insights, Minister Qiuh. We look forward to seeing how the transport sector evolves under your leadership.
**Minister Qiuh:** Thank you for having me. It’s a pleasure to share our vision for the future of transport in our country.
