[size=52]Chaos of appointments in state institutions.. Lack of planning threatens the economy and development![/size]

[size=45]Many state institutions have recently witnessed a wave of new appointments without a clear economic plan to support these steps.[/size]
[size=45]Although providing job opportunities is one of the government’s top priorities to improve living conditions and reduce unemployment rates, the absence of strategic planning may exacerbate the country’s financial and economic crises.[/size]
[size=45]Making appointments randomly without studying the needs of the market or the state’s financial capabilities may lead to an increased burden on the general budget and hinder sustainable development efforts, which calls for a real pause to reconsider these policies.[/size]
[size=45]Thaer Al-Jubouri, a representative of the Coordination Framework, criticized the absence of economic and development planning in launching appointments in various state institutions, stressing the importance of activating productive aspects to add new revenues that contribute to covering operating expenses.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Jubouri said, “The economy cannot be built randomly, and the mistakes that Iraq has made lie in the random appointments, disguised unemployment in state institutions, and the compliments received from successive governments to obtain popular satisfaction, but they have caused economic chaos.”[/size]
[size=45]He added, "The appointments must be feasible and economically developmental, so that salaries must be in exchange for production instead of being a burden that eats away at the Iraqi economy."
Al-Jubouri continued, "There is failed planning by successive governments, as they did not put in place an economic production plan in exchange for the appointments that are launched from time to time, as there must be economic development in exchange for employing others."[/size]
[size=45]For his part, Mustafa Akram Hantoush, a financial and economic expert, reviewed the possibility of stopping appointments in Iraq for ten years in order to adjust the balance of expenditures.[/size]
[size=45]Hantoush said, “Successive Iraqi governments do not appoint because they need these appointments, but because they do not want any real work in the private sector. This is why the government appoints hundreds of thousands, because there are no job opportunities for young people in the private sector, and the responsible parties and figures in the state have not found any real solutions for this matter.”[/size]
[size=45]He explained that “stopping appointments for one year in Iraq is impossible, not for ten years, as Iraq does not have a private sector, and the private sector is a media bubble in Iraq. Iraq has approximately 45 million people and needs thousands of industrial cities and thousands of factories in order for there to be a real economic renaissance to activate the private sector in a real way.”[/size]
[size=45]He added, “The private sector is acting through the existence of a regulatory plan by the government by granting part of the financial allocations for the infrastructure of the private sector through establishing popular markets and allowances and giving loans for various projects, especially since the Central Bank of Iraq stopped the loans without any study, and this destroyed the Iraqi market, as these loans have been stopped for nearly two years, and there is no real work in the private sector, and there is no addition or development in this sector.”[/size]
[size=45]The financial and economic specialist stressed that “the private sector needs to be activated, and an annual regulatory budget, and it needs initiatives for loans and laws, and after activating this sector here, Iraq will only need no appointments, and otherwise Iraq will continue to need appointments, and they cannot be stopped for any short period, and for this reason they will continue during this government and during the coming Iraqi governments.”[/size]
[size=45]Earlier, Finance Committee member Jamal Kojer revealed a government move to reduce job slack in Iraq, noting that “Iraq needs to stop appointments for 10 years in order to be able to control the balance of expenditures.”[/size]
