He added that "food prices rose to more than 30% of their previous price," noting that "this rise caused the employee to lose about 50% of the purchasing value of his salary."
He continued, "Saad's rise in oil barrels above the prices set in the budget requires the government to review the exchange rate and return it to its previous custody," noting that "the market is witnessing a stagnation, as well as the emigration of traders and capital."
Al-Leithi pointed out that "most businessmen have abandoned Diwaniyah because the province is not attractive to investment projects, which prompted them to migrate and implement projects in the provinces of Najaf, Karbala and the Kurdistan Region."
He stated that "administrative red tape and corruption are another reason behind businessmen evasion from implementing any project in the province." LINK
