Baghdad: The Emad of the Emirate

The various government agencies have doubled their moves aimed at confronting the price hike resulting from the increase in the exchange rate of the dollar, especially since Iraq depends mainly on imported materials whose costs have increased as a result of the high exchange rate of the dollar, while the Ministry of Commerce revealed that it had developed a broad plan to provide various foodstuffs for a month later. With the aim of preventing monopoly, specialists in economic affairs see the importance of the return of "government trade" and the entry of the competent official institutions into a process of competition with the private sector in order to control prices.
Most of the prices of household goods and foodstuffs witnessed remarkable increases in previous times, which was confirmed by the Ministry of Planning, which announced high inflation rates, mainly caused by the high exchange rate of the parallel dollar adopted by importers to finance their goods.
The media spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce, Muhammad Hanoun, revealed to "Al-Sabah" that "intensified efforts to pump large quantities of flour, table eggs and chicken to direct sales outlets, and that the step comes in implementation of the directives of the Council of Ministers, and in order to activate the tools that would create price stability in the local markets and fight monopoly."
Hanoun pointed out that this plan will continue after the blessed month of Ramadan, and it is the beginning of steps that the Ministry of Commerce will take in the near future, including the distribution of other materials, including meat, fish and cheese, and they will be accessible to the citizen at the cheapest prices.
Hanoun added, "The outlets of the Ministry of Commerce pumped large quantities of table eggs and sold them at lower prices than the local market, in addition to pumping large quantities of white flour at a subsidized price. It was also decided that the ministry's outlets, during the coming period, will sell chicken meat in larger quantities and at a price not exceeding three Thousands of dinars per kilo, and selling a liter of milk for only one thousand dinars.”
The media spokesman added that the ministry continues its campaigns until prices stabilize in the markets and there is real supply and demand, and at that time the Ministry of Commerce will monitor the market only, but there are still indications of high prices or monopolization of materials by "crisis traders."
For his part, the academic and economic researcher Dr. Abdul Karim Al-Issawi said in an interview with "Al-Sabah": "The move of the Ministry of Commerce represents a return to government trade, and this trade has pros and cons, and among its advantages is the import of various food, basic and investment materials and commodities from well-known origins of high quality, guaranteed use and bearable." These suppliers are responsible for any damages that occur and guarantee the import of basic commodities such as cars, machinery and production equipment,” stressing that this approach “guarantees that there will be no financial and administrative corruption when the deal is completed, as officials will be subjected to severe accountability by the central government.”
Al-Issawi continued, the government can use the commercial paper to deal reciprocally with the bilateral trading partner to achieve national interests when exposed to danger, then the government can protect the local product similar to imported foreign goods and push to pursue a policy of economic diversification, indicating that there are some negatives that may accompany the direction of trade, including that This policy may create a kind of bureaucracy and sluggishness of the job.
In turn, the academic, Dr. Amr Hisham, explained that the issue of the Ministry of Commerce adopting a direct selling policy has multiple aspects, most of which are positive and welcomed by the citizen, especially since entering the market in times of crisis is a positive thing because it strengthens supply chains, increases the supply of goods and materials, and reduces manipulation, speculation, and harvesting. Earnings by crisis traders.
Hisham believes that this intervention by the Ministry of Commerce is good in its results. As for the continuation of the intervention in the market by the Ministry of Commerce in normal and stable times, it may place additional unjustified financial and administrative burdens on the ministry's cadres and on the federal budget in general.
