Calls have been repeated from governmental and sometimes non-governmental agencies to local and foreign investors to work and invest in Iraq and the announcement that Iraq is a favorite place and attractive to investors and investment in infrastructure and services. In spite of the increase of the virtual employment opportunities for the next phase in Iraq, including the requirements of the reconstruction of areas liberated from terrorist operations and expectations of increasing the direction of resources to economic construction throughout the country will gradually decrease the requirements of military operations in the fight against terrorism and in light of the supposed improvement in the management of the economic file.
The priorities of the next phase will be the development of a comprehensive action plan for the whole of Iraq that will include programs, projects and activities according to priorities under specific objectives for the near, medium and long term, based on previously approved sectoral strategies and an effective promotion policy for attractive projects.
It is necessary to identify and approve the details of the comprehensive and sustainable plan of action through comprehensive and expanded meetings between decision makers from government institutions, private sector institutions and civil society to develop binding plans and to eliminate any possibility of exhaustive and non-systematic reforms and avoidance and to develop and implement reconstruction, investment, reform and annual national development plans.
These plans include how to guide the resources of the country despite their limitations, how to maximize resources and exploit them optimally, and to develop a sophisticated, transparent and flexible system for managing the economic file, and any public-private partnership, projects and activities targeted to attract investment and the mechanism for directing and implementing international grants for reconstruction.
The loans have tight accounts because they are supposed to be taken in extreme cases only and to deal with the bottlenecks are very sensitive as long-term liabilities as long as it is not feasible to finance itself.
Within these plans, action should be taken to establish a mechanism for activating the effective professional participation of government and private banks and to assume their expected role in financing projects and entering into financing partnerships for the next phase based on their products and banking activities.
It also requires the development and implementation of a flexible action plan for a media campaign throughout Iraq aimed at guiding, motivating and activating the participation of all parties, institutions, experts and citizens in the process of changing the mechanisms of action and eliminating the routine and facilitating procedures and supporting the employers and adopting a slogan for the stage, Construction and reconstruction "campaign aims to achieve the expected active role of the media and develop the role and participation of citizens as the ultimate beneficiary as well as subsequent generations.
We hope and admire the important role of the wisdom of the supreme religious authority in Iraq, which has already given the Fatwa and the success of the struggle against terrorism that posed a threat to the existence of Iraq. Now we envisage a reference to building and rebuilding Iraq, fighting corruption and activating the economy and achieving the rule of law. .
In addition, the proposed comprehensive meeting for those concerned with economic affairs, business development, investment, the Supreme Investment Committee and the Council of Ministers should guide the society towards economic, social and service reform, and to consider the Business Environment Committee, which we propose to be linked to the Higher Investment Committee, headed by the Prime Minister. Important factors to stimulate business and protect the national product and business owners and investors and facilitate procedures.
These include, for example, the tendency to deal with a large number of negative practices that require careful diagnosis and which, by virtue of the situation, are contrary to the requirements of the attractive environment and measure measures that are viewed by serious employers and investors, as they can be a repressive environment for action and based on their decisions to invest in Iraq And its diagnosis and treatment contributes to improving the attractiveness of Iraq to investment, including: the rule of law, control of the system, accounting of any aggressor, whether an individual or group to any person or entity or institution, develop human capabilities and improve the productivity of all working citizens as of The late preliminary study.
As well as the development and improvement of the educational system and its care on an exceptional basis, providing the technical capabilities and productivity of the Iraqi citizen, comprehensive and strict treatment of abuses on public funds and attention to parks and the environment in general, ensure that no employer or investor to any harassment and its relationship with the relevant sector Its role is to provide support, streamline procedures and address the obstacles and challenges facing its success. To be able to communicate and use the sectoral entities responsible for monitoring the activities and requirements of investors around the clock as a goal.
Requires taking into consideration the provision of an attractive environment for work, investment, provision of supplies, serious will and professional departments with experience and keen to complete projects and work and to achieve their operation and benefit from them effectively and within the requirements of quality, efficiency and timings in word and deed to observe and address the negatives which constitute part of them, which results in improving the attractiveness of the business environment in Iraq. Where the investor is entrusted to his investments and to ensure the return of investment and the movement of funds and profits and activities and expansions.
It is always preferable to take samples of the reality that the investor is looking at with scrutiny, analysis, conclusion and detailed studies before making the decision. For example, with the need to look at all the details that are being studied by investors who are either aiming to attract them to work in Iraq or those who study the Iraqi market for possible entry .
It is possible to review and develop a number of bold solutions to a number of issues, including the difficulty of communicating with the relevant decision makers in the relevant government departments, weak capacity in the business circles, routine and poor transparency, lack of efficient and efficient one-window approach, forcing the investor to communicate with the relevant official authorities and Provide a culture of support, cooperation and facilitation.
