THE
UNEMPLOYMENT CATASTROPHE
The Algerian think-tank Conseil Economique et Social
Algerien (Algerian Economic and Social Council) or CNES stated in its latest
report that 250,000 to 300,000 new jobs need to be created every year to
maintain the unemployment rate to its current level without even reducing
it. To establish full employment the number of jobs to be created
must be between 700,000 and 750,000 per year.

TUNISIA
LAW FACES ITS FIRST MAJOR
CASE
OF WHITE COLAR CRIME
On May 24th, a Tunis court sentenced corporate managers
to various jail times of between 5 and 7 years. The case is certainly
Tunisia’s first major white collar crime case and as such, we believe it
is worth reporting the details of the case to readers of Maghreb
Weekly Monitor.
