Decorate situation

But many economists are contributing now decorate the economic situation and the ability of Iraq to pay salaries, but hard .uallah ... what do we do to prevent economic collapse Is solutions .... And how? There are quick fixes to be taken long-term solutions .... We focused in our article first on agriculture and work on self-sufficiency in agricultural products and prevent the import and now focus on the private and public industrial sectors ... We now need to bold and difficult decision, a ban on imports for at least a year note that Iraq is a very large stocks of imported materials, which is enough for three years for the purpose of reliance on domestic product and bring life cycle to laboratories and factories Iraqi and import only necessities and raw materials ... .. and the Iraqi industry cycle, which provide goods and services within three months and will provide job opportunities to the huge all unemployed and the poor ... and will wage rises in the private sector higher of public sector wages ... and this decision should be taken to grant voluntary holidays at half pay for work in the private sector and this will help the high-budget by up to 30 percent of the current budget .... We must raise the slogan of (all that can be produced in Iraq stop the import) and the second quick decisions should be abolished currency ... which just became an official party to money laundering and smuggling of foreign currency auction, leading to the collapse of the Iraqi economy ... and not how the Iraq daily sales of oil to exceed $ 70 million The auction sells from 160-200 million dollars Where we come from the difference of 90-130 million dollars this disaster will lead to faster economic collapse ...

The third resolution is important to reduce the value of the Iraqi dinar, like the European Union and China to be able to pay salaries through Currency Sales teams, especially if the dollar reached 2,000 dinars per dollar .... And be transfers of hard currency by the letter of credit for the elimination of financial and administrative corruption in the process of selling currency and provide hard currency to real imports ... to take the three decisions above is responsible for the spin stop the Iraqi economy and must be taken as soon as possible ...

Through the rest of the industry will develop other sectors of the economy and we will provide through industry and agriculture at least $ 30 billion and will contribute to industry and agriculture Brphi budget by at least 25 percent of the resources ... ..

From all this we conclude we have to walk in the way of domestic production and rely on ourselves, like the neighboring countries, Iran and Turkey of the best examples of self-sufficiency in the domestic industry ... authorized reliance on the private industrial sector leads to the revival of the Iraqi economy in general ... should raise the slogan not rely on oil and rely on the principle of local production to supplement the Iraqi budget funds, the Stop importing and take advantage of hard currency in the age of the infrastructure .... And work to build a state of production and not the state employees and the creation of a quantum leap in Iraqi public life and the reliance on the private industrial sector, especially small and medium industries ... and work on the exploitation of natural resources and building strategic factories to be a tributary of the materials used in small and medium industries ...

The most important detail to encourage public sector employees to move to the private sector Homnh the private sector, according to the new labor pension law for all Iraqis from the private sector repaid its financial obligations to the Iraqi state and thus secure his future ....

Finally, we should work on activating the laws that serve the private sector -altarafh customs - consumer protection law - the local product protection and competition law and antitrust to support the private sector, law and return it to its normal position before the Gulf War ... and keep hard currency and build a sound and sober Ovtsad to provide the Iraqi budget amounts huge and achieve financial abundance for the Treasury an estimated $ 20 billion.

This added his taxes and fees resources, which constitute significant amounts of Iraqi budget and the movement of large numbers of staff to the private sector ... in addition to the State's need to restructure the staff and the establishment of productive contracting companies and construction companies, military production and build a military industry to provide military supplies and police and these provide the Iraqi government 3.5 billion dollars a year, and if we add them and other items of clothes, shoes and shields amount rises to more than $ 6 billion, and this in turn will provide more than a million jobs ...

With this we will achieve the quality of the Iraqi economy during the boom of the national industry and God save Iraq and economic resource to another.
