politics? Economic situation became known to everyone and is in front of two issues : the scarcity of financial resources and lower oil prices , we did not get today , but the 15% of what we were getting him two years ago in the previous government, in a country based its budget on oil revenues just as well as having the expenses of the war and the costs prohibitive.
* can the government employees ' salaries this year
insurance? government seeks to that and there are four Maigarb million employees, and three million retired, and about eight million below the poverty line, the government is seeking to redress this segment in addition to the displaced a difficult issue in the balance between poverty and war , and to provide salaries, and we hope the haves and businessmen to donate to this slide and provide immediate assistance to the poor and needy through the Ministry of Labour and social Affairs.
* How do you see the reality of investment in the
country? State has a great role in the investments, and there are not exploited the opportunities and the loss of funds huge investment budgets of the various projects, where there are six thousand project the allocations (280) million in the previous years , but the results have been disappointing and the aspirations of the people in the growth and re - construction and reconstruction, and the Ministry of planning and the Council of Ministers is working to purify these projects and complete done them Although other financial burdens that will be paid by the state, there is a priority to the projects of electric power.
* is there government support for the private
sector? there is a big role for the private sector and support the market which is the operator and we have a plan until 2030 will be 60% is the product of the work of the private sector who is running a market economy like the countries of the world needs this work to activate the special laws regarding social welfare support and there is a special workshop sponsored by the Prime Minister and the Minister of transport will be held soon belong to these steps.
* what is the role of government in international relations to support foreign
investment? the government aspires to cooperation with various advanced in this area countries, and there is coordination with the European development Bank, so that the reconstruction by giving nearly a billion dollars of investment projects low interest rate, and there is work for the government in this area and the role of the national Authority for Investment to work in this Convention, as well as another agreement is silk belt where he signed an agreement with China and there is work with the Chinese government, companies and program called oil - for reconstruction and development and the trend in the Chinese government effectively the reconstruction of Iraq within the maritime silk line agreement to contribute as Iraq is a pivotal point in the progress and stability of the region and there is a meeting of the Iraq - China joint Commission will discuss these issues We hope that the meeting will be fruitful , where China is working to implement this program and the reconstruction of the country and there are a lot of optimism in this aspect and will be implemented this year , do not want to repeat the loss of Iraq for about (fifty billion dollars) from international grants went in and fake projects and companies that are not sober worked some of the projects and destroyed in after having mentioned the US Inspector General.
* what are the prospects for improved economic situation with the case of reducing
salaries? it did not reduce salaries but withheld contributions to support social welfare and popular crowd, and I see that keeping salaries in this difficult situation is a huge benefit, and there is a clear understanding among the general Iraqi society, especially with the waste of money because of the large number of corruption in the past , which is more dangerous than terrorism.
* Where are the barriers and obstacles to foreign investment in
Iraq? frankly we say repulsive environment for foreign investment, has inherited this neglect and deprivation of this grace since the former regime time, and look for foreign investment with suspicion and this view is incorrect, and today the Prime Minister 's Office is working with the competent bodies to speed up the entry of companies and foreign investors and give them a visa becomes as easy as possible with the audit of security procedures and follow - up of the prime minister of work and we will continuously work between investors and through a specialized site this area, window supervisory to see investors obstacles and do not let extortion, and interact with investors directly , and this is part of what we have inherited from sabotage and we are facing a war to improve the investment and promotion environment.
* Where large investment projects promised by the
state? Iraq will witness a big leap tasks investment through infrastructure and housing projects, large projects promised by the state lagged faced difficult circumstances known to everyone amid political conflicts and must learn the lessons, governance and take advantage of opportunities, and it became the Iraqi people to know everything hidden and concealed, and we hope that these agreements take the right path and that Iraq is a country rich in various resources, one Iraqi investors raised floated the idea of palm invest as we have fifty million palm possible produce for us and Ward five thousand dollars a year per Nakhla, these accounts can Nsthsal imports equal to the imports of oil exports, the country is rich and can to work for this project will seek to activate the investment field palm has Horb palm development project politically since the era of the seventies and was destroyed by wars and conflicts to the present time until tourism we're the only country in which the major tourist areas in the world but did not benefit them, and there is a tendency to become the interest in tourism, especially in the sacred areas, and there are funds many possible to invest in this area, and perhaps the decline in oil prices in favor of reviving the Iraqi economy and must «triac» end dependence on oil only and there are countries which rebounded development which is similar to us and not the proceeds of oil , such as Malaysia, Singapore and others.
* How do you see the spread of corruption in economic affairs , which depends upon the
country? the most dangerous corruption is the biggest corruption , a large part of the investment projects started and not completed a large part of these projects took advantage of Astardat at the central bank auction , where importing consumer goods exempt from customs because of it 's government projects, even if it was set up Council reconstruction project where refer to him in the budget of 2015. another project for government contracts and aspire legislation such projects, and there is an outside company will use them to assess and study projects and check price and quality of the contractor and there will be a true and accurate standards and currently work with full transparency and away the major projects for the biggest corruption in this case important smaller corruption lies in the state administration and the work of the staff and the simplification of procedures and that contribute to the mitigation of bribery and completion of transactions and can be used firms competent administrative work for the organization of these tasks and getting rid of red tape, corruption and burnout reviewers to those circles of this committee is working to streamline procedures through the Office of the Prime Minister and we need more the time to complete this important project.
* what is your work for the recovery of Iraqi funds smuggled out of the
country? smuggled money went through several eras section due to periods of very old and reverts to the former regime, and some of the money back to the system , which came with some muggers who stole Iraq 's money and fled, and need intensive work, including the shift to money laundering parliament has managed to initiate a new law to money laundering and enters under the cloak of an international umbrella of the deal will be a deterrent in this area, and perhaps that money turned into names and other real and it is not an easy task, despite the presence of a court database smuggled nations have the money, and offered us projects and ideas for the recovery of money diverted from the legal offices and international lawyers and the high cost and deducting a percentage of them, and we are working as much as possible in this project, but with extreme caution so as not infringing on the rights and property of innocent people , and we must work international agreements on these issue, there are many European and regional countries which abound smuggled money , and now we will recover the money, but not so great and we need to tan this subject and there is cooperation between the ministries of Justice and Foreign Affairs and Interpol.
* Is the government trying to activate the work of private banks and merge
them? there is no law authorizing the government merged private banks, and there is a bill studying now in the House of Representatives where paragraph merging the bank if he fails bucking the work of the central bank system, and have the merger when absolutely necessary, and there is the integration of operations conducted through persuasion need to work together dialogue and we need to be amended banking Act to allow the supervisory authority and the World Bank Central that integrates , when necessary, and say there is no bank operates outside the law and the Iraqi judiciary deter all tempted to smuggle currency and work outside legal regulations and there are some failures , I watched and they have many problems, and some of them beater completely and the other on the lack of liquidity and the central bank to provide assistance financial them, and there are banks work well and the Central Bank is the supervisory follow - up and accountability in conflict with the law.
* have you been to start a financial grant small Central Bank of Iraq for
projects? Yes , the central bank began to transfer the amount of six trillion dinars to some private banks for the purpose of lending to citizens and to support small businesses according to certain guarantees an interest rate not to exceed 4%.
* why the government is not interested in industrial and agricultural production projects and reduce the import process and the loss of hard
currency? Unfortunately this the legacy we inherited across multiple governments over ten years have failed in the process of building a strong and solid economy, do not control the quality of not valid Customs and today there is a trend and the control of the Government of Haider al - Abadi and support the national product and the entry of goods of high quality and we hope to have a quick decision to prevent the entry shoddy materials to the Iraqi market.
* How do you see the ration card distribution
mechanisms? there Minister efficient and works with all national and courage for the purpose of improve the ration card and there are many episodes of corruption in the Ministry of Commerce and since 1996 in the memorandum of understanding, there are two trends for this area, the first allocation of Altamoninh card items to the beneficiaries of the poor and needy and that the contractor materials them to be first - class, but they come poor and the benefit of the citizen, and we are optimistic about the work of the Minister Mohammed Shia 'Al Sudani and clean up the ministry of corruption and the expulsion of spoilers, as there is considerable support from the Council of Ministers for the work of the minister and conduct administrative reforms and improving the quality of the ration card items and stop wasting money.
* Is it possible to activate the system of quality
control? Yes will work with that device and activating the controls, we have discussed this topic during our visit was agreed with the Chinese side on the need to provide us with a certificate of origin like the work of international companies, so as to ensure the safety of goods exported to Iraq.
What about electric power projects and an end to the
problem? the problem of electricity in a conundrum as now produce 13,000 Mica, in all 11 counties are supposed to electricity is over 24 hours and there is a loss of energy by 35%, and do not know where this energy disappear theft or the waste, or is deliberately not to give power has forced the government to give the distribution process the private sector in order to get electricity 100% and get rid of evasion by not paying electricity wages, even if there is a legal possibility to cancel previous debt or installments until collection begins anew and the system and one for each country and seek to consult with the prime minister on that side for the purpose of improving the collection fairly and amounts few.
* How consider political reform the formation of a government of
technocrats? Prime Minister pasts to form a government of technocrats and wait to make the change in order to put Iraq on the right track and the elimination of sectarianism and party quotas , which destroyed Iraq and fought the country 's bitter that side experience and hope that construction and reconstruction by relying on the competence and integrity and there in response to the political parties for the progress of these reforms and even the Prime Minister has no love of authoritarianism and stay in power and reforms in the financial institutions and the Central Bank of Iraq is left to see the Prime Minister and his conviction for change and reform.
