MilitiaMan: The money at to which these projects will be completed could not be completed if at a program rate. imo.. They will require the new exchange rate that will support the re construction effort. The new system in place at the borders will add massive revenue streams, just as the liquid natural gas that is being sold.. All of it and much more will add to the bottom line for the new real effective exchange rate (REER) to come. There is no reason to have small category notes while at a program rate. We know they have told the citizens on TV about small notes. This article is additional support a rate change is imminent.. imo. ~MM

10/12/2021 23:14:01
Minister of Finance, Ali Abdul Amir Allawi, said that the white paper had achieved impressive results, including overcoming the financial collapse "in the country."

In a speech on the occasion, Allawi said, "The government program and the sustainable development plan, which aimed at investing in people, modern technology and work institutions to create added values, has become the main cause of poverty and epidemics, reducing disparities in living standards, climatic changes and water pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to work seriously to sustain life in our country and ensure enjoyment of life." society in peace and prosperity by 2030 through partnership between the public and private sectors.
He added, "The white reform paper was launched to correct structural distortions in the economy, the labor market, and in financial and monetary policies, and during its second year, despite the challenges, it achieved impressive results, which is to overcome the financial collapse and global indebtedness and achieve a cash surplus that will be a base for starting towards addressing the deterioration that affected the productive economic sectors."
Allawi also stressed that "the reform paper stressed the need to rebuild all sectors and in various fields, whether leadership, administrative, humanitarian and personal. Technological skills occupied a large part of the government's concerns, such as digitization, automation of systems, and the application of the "AYSCUDA" system, which is one of the modern systems to strengthen reform measures to improve performance Financial institutions, including the collection of customs taxes at ports and border crossings.
And he stated, "Our participation in this civilized platform in Dubai for the year 2021 provides us with many opportunities to benefit from the outputs of science, technology and artificial intelligence in particular, and opens new horizons in the world of economy and education, and stimulates talent and entrepreneurship."

~~~~~~~~~~~~
MilitiaMan: The above was yesterday and published today, it being a shoulder to shoulder meeting and the below is from this past May, which is an agreement they signed with "AYSCUDA" to digitize and automate the borders.
The new system is about International Trade. It is also about adding value to the State and it's people and outside of just oil revenue. They had an expo out side of the country in the UAE with the CBI Governor and Ali Abdul Amir Allawi.
The meeting tells us they helped over come the financial collapse and global indebtedness and achieved a cash surplus.
Today is the Centenary of Iraq. With that in mind we see that the USA has relinquished 17,000 artifacts including the famous Gilgamesh tablet. It must be Priceless.
The symbolism for today is about the Logo they chose to usher the centenary in with. The Iraqi Flag, the Palm Tree and the Ishtar Star (8 sided). For instance, the Flag of Iraq during the era of 1959-1963 had one on center. In addition to that, the currency of Iraq has been noted to use that same like symbols both today and in the past.
We know there has been on going public education on the historic IQD notes that were lacking the three zeros. Why educate the citizens, while at a program rate of 1,460?
Because the project to delete the three zeros from the exchange rate has been in play since 2003 and is now being completed. They are coming full circle.
They'll need the new small category notes again that will effectively be repeated once again.
The plan may not have always been about the saving of the global system or maybe it has been all along? I don't know, but, fiat systems come to an end at some point. Maybe now or very soon is the time they have set for them to remove the zeroes to openly go international on a global scale.
This newer system is (imo) AYSCUDA is ushering in will bring a digital transformation that will level the playing field not just in Iraq but globally, as noted both above and below. Hundreds of countries are involved.
To make the statement that: ("The white reform paper was launched to correct structural distortions in the economy, the labor market, and in financial and monetary policies, and during its second year, despite the challenges, it achieved impressive results, which is to overcome the financial collapse and global indebtedness and achieve a cash surplus that will be a base for starting towards addressing the deterioration that affected the productive economic sectors."), is to include not just Iraq having a financial collapse, they take it to a global level.
I have not ever heard that Iraq was ever indebted to the world. In fact, it appears they have paid their debt in compensation of about $58 billion to Kuwait. They are however in the quote, suggesting or stating that Iraq having had impressive results over the preceding two years has achieved their goals to save the world (global) financially, imo.
Be sure for that to happen the new exchange rate is not going to come out of a sanctioned program rate currency, not a chance. imo..
Yesterday was Victory Day to commemorate all those that died from past wars, etc. Today the Centenary, apparently will be a fresh start and a reminder of the past but more important to tell us where they are going over the next 100 years.. Lets see the game-changer show us the real value of the IQD in the International Markets, has to be time imo.. lol ~ MM

27 May 2021
The ASYCUDA system is expected to be a game-changer in customs processing in Iraq and improve ease of doing business in the country.
UNCTAD and Iraq signed an agreement on 27 May to help the country modernize and automate its customs procedures.
Acting UNCTAD head Isabelle Durant and Iraq’s finance minister Ali Abdul Ameer Allawi inked the deal to implement a project that will promote trade and development in Iraq.
“The agreement that we are signing today signals the beginning of one of the most ambitious projects in the region,” Ms. Durant said.
She said the project would place Iraq among the most advanced countries in the region in modernizing and automizing customs and improving its international business ratings.
ASYCUDA to reform customs clearance
The project will involve the implementation of UNCTAD’s Automated System for Customs Data (ASYCUDA) to reform and automate the customs clearance process.
The latest version, ASYCUDAWorld, uses and takes advantage of the latest open and web-based technology.
The project will also build a single window for international trade to facilitate compliance with import and export requirements.
This would lessen the cost and streamline the process at border control, reducing barriers to international trade.
Based on the ASYCUDA experience in other countries, Ms. Durant said, it is likely that customs revenues in Iraq will increase and that the release time at the border will be halved through the project.
“More customs revenue will mean more means for spending and investment, and hence more support for the people of Iraq,” she said.
Committed to international standards
Minister Allawi said the Iraqi government is committed to ensuring its processes and procedures are automated in line with the best international standards.
“We selected ASYCUDA after a rigorous selection process,” Mr. Allawi said, “because the system has been implemented in nearly 100 countries and shown excellent results in all aspects of customs management and procedures.”
He said the system would dramatically improve the operations of the Iraqi customs authority and help reduce or eliminate many of the problems confronting the country’s international trade.
“Of course, the opportunities for corruption, extortion and malfeasance will also be radically reduced,” Mr. Allawi said.
He said increased revenues due to automation of customs operations would enable Iraq to plug gaps in finances for development. “Currently Iraq is losing a huge amount in uncollected customs revenue,” he said.
The system would generate timely, accurate and valuable data and information to support government planning, said director-general of the Iraqi customs authority, Sadiq Howeidi Abbas.
Improving ease of doing business
The customs project is also expected to improve ease of doing business in Iraq.
It will speed up customs clearance through the computerization and simplification of procedures, minimizing administrative costs to the business community and the Iraqi economy.
UNCTAD’s technology and logistics director, Shamika N. Sirimanne, said the project would be important for the economic development of Iraq.
“It will boost the efficiency of government services for trade and advance national digitalization strategies through introducing e-declarations and e-payments,” she said.
The project would bolster the implementation of economic reforms in Iraq and the government’s efforts to revive the country’s economy, make it more competitive and less dependent on oil revenues.
Ms. Sirimanne said Iraq would also benefit from the transfer of technology and skills as part of the project’s capacity-building activities.
