Economists : Dropping three zeros from the Iraqi currency leads to a collapse
Baghdad - Haqqi Ismaeil
Economists doubted the benefit from dropping three zeros from the Iraqi currency saying that this step will help in collapsing the Iraqi economy collapsing due to the bad security situation and financial and administrative corruption in the governmental institutions. They expected an increase of item prices and decrease in purchasing demand if implementing the zero dropping. They suggested opening the door for investments, finding a base for production, controlling resources and getting rid of illusive projects. The ministry of finance has submitted a proposal to the Iraqi Central Bank asking for dropping three zeros from the Iraqi currency. Dr.. Ismaiel Taha, a professor in Economy and Administration in College Al-Mustansiriya University, said that dropping three zeros has no sense now but minimizing the number of different currencies in transactions. It will lose the Iraqi dinar its purchase power and there will be no space for small currencies. Dr.. Salim Mohammed Abood, from the Customer and Market to Japan Center in Baghdad University said that the step of dropping the zeros will decrease the purchase power of the Iraqi dinar and in stead of that we should control the national resources, get rid of the illusive projects which have high percentage of expenditures in addition to the salaries and equipments assigned for security institutions.
Dr.. Salah Al-Baghdadi Sahib, from the Higher Institute of Accountant and Financial Studies in Baghdad University clarified that the government has to concentrate on tasks such as defusing the fuel crises rather than increasing its prices, supporting the item prices in the markets, continue providing foreign currency through the Iraqi Central Bank to keep exchanging the price of the Iraqi dinar against foreign currencies. Sinan Al-Shibibi, the central bank governor has promised to form a committee of experts from the bank, ministry of finance and the commercial bank to study proposals. The Iraqi citizen, hameed Jasim expressed his happiness wondering if the Iraqi dinar will regain its value during the seventies and eighties of the previous century when it equaled three American Dollars. He also said (why don't we have a strong dinar since our country is rich and has all the necessary requirements for development). Another Iraqi citizen, Hasan Bahaa, has another vision. He said that the government is aiming at keeping the Iraqi people busy because most of them are unemployed and even if they find jobs. they will find themselves exposed to many risks so there is no use of such procedures unpractical.

The first political Parties : the participation of the political process bear the deterioration of the street
Abdel-Khaleq told Zenknh "morning" : called for the recognition that Iraq is not unified now
Baghdad-Youssef Mahmadawi's Deputy, also clarified
Abdel-Khaliq Zenknh member of the House of Representatives from the Kurdistan Alliance list that some political forces to participate in the political process have an interest in a crisis situation and the arrival of the situation to what it is now for some of these do not believe in an Iraq pluralistic forces and tried to return to the rule of totalitarian regimes.
The Zenknh, In an interview with him (morning) and that the solution to get out of the current tragic situation lies in the activation of the initiative of national reconciliation, disbanding the militias, and the application of these things in practice and not merely in words and finds that the federal Zenknh Federal is a need for Iraq and the need for it is impossible to talk about a unified Iraq because it is practically Iraq now is not uniform.
* Zenknh first asked about the reason for the situation in Iraq, the danger is greater the year after the change, Is that the root lies in the mechanisms of this change in the reservoir or the other?
- Borders believes that the process of change and the fall of the tyrant after decades of the establishment of a dictatorship and oppression process is not simple though everyone had been waiting for the fall of the tyrant and change the Iraqi reality and to move in behind the developed countries in everything. However, the events were the opposite of what the citizens want, Instead of dominating the language understanding, tolerance and reconciliation prevailed in the wrong methods in political dealings. Yes, we as a people are not alone in this negative phenomenon, which came after the change is passed peoples lived the same experience and the same ordeal as is the case in South Africa, but this does not give us the right to justify what is going on because it is now necessary to address chronic problems brought about by dictatorships and chauvinism and racism. Unfortunately late to address this issue of lack of a common language of understanding with the politicians, even though they were owned by the fall of the totalitarian system.
Some political parties bear responsibility for what is happening
* Zenknh asked that he thought that what is happening now is the conflict between the political blocs?
- Yes, responded immediately and emphasized that the political conflicts, explaining that does not mean that all blocs and the political parties bear the responsibility of not understanding the realities and the composition of the components of Iraqi society, he felt that there was a strong political affected by the fall of the tyrant Saddam because it was under the shadow, With that political forces were affected by the tyrant came Ttsid political scene (labor) without taking into account the political and social reality and without considering the reaction of the other party beneficiary previously, This created a large gap, a big gap you what happened, and now we are in a disastrous situation. Despite what is happening now some of us are trying to aggravating the situation.
* Why is creating a problem in this situation as long as some people is a partner in the political process?
Non-faith pluralistic Iraq and the impossibility of the return of totalitarian regimes and the central as well as the lack of understanding of the other party and the principle of non-belief in the devolution of power.
Reconciliation ... Is the solution
* Where lies the solution from your point of view?
- No way out of the present situation only through the national reconciliation requirement is the only solution to the country where it happened elimination of a dictatorial unique in the world requires that there be national reconciliation and national dialogue, The call for reconciliation requirement Kurds, according to the Jalal Talabani and Massoud Barzani in the London conference of the Iraqi opposition before the fall of the regime five months, which is also called the reconciliation conference held in Irbil, a year after the fall of the tyrant.
And now we see that we have to be translated into a draft reconciliation put forward by Mr. Prime Minister, and do on the ground in deeds, not words, speeches and conferences only. because noticeable now that the more the call for reconciliation and dialogue increased terrorist operations and the security situation worse and that is why we Despite our belief that the perpetrator is a terrorist, than an organization and Saddam to believe that there are a large part of these tensions and strife and displacement and killing of identity bear responsibility hoses z political forces, which are militias to achieve the objectives of self-no more at the expense of the citizen.
Q : Is that the political forces that were alluded to by the forces participating in the political process?
- Yes, that part of them participating in the political process and before the first elections in the referendum on the constitution, and the recent elections, but it also participate in the government of national unity.
Iraq is now practically non-uniform
* There is a controversy exists between the political blocs in the House of Representatives on articles 118, which means the application of federal and Article 142, which means a constitutional amendments What is your view of what is happening and what will happen?
- From the principles of the Constitution and fundamentals of its Iraq is a country that federal, pluralistic, this was approved by 74% of the people and who participated in the political process, no matter what banner to remember that he vowed to believe, pluralistic and federal Iraq, The federal system in Iraq and the federal need and necessity and it is impossible to talk about a unified Iraq because Iraq is now practically non-uniform and work through the Federation is to ensure the unity of Iraq.
It is the right of the parliamentary blocs and political actors to give their opinions and observations. Some believe that Article 142 should be discussed before the article 118 this technical issue, and I do not think it deserved all those positions and eased their political escalation unwarranted some of the parties seeking to reject federalism and the return of Iraq to the central and despotism, this is not only unacceptable but ended in Iraq and the return impossible. And Iraq without federalism can not be, The disagreement over the timing of the application of the federal This is due to the citizen whether in the south or in the Euphrates East or West Coast, he has a decision to do so.
Federal legal and legitimate right of the Kurds
Q : What is the position of Kurds from this controversy?
- Federalism in Kurdistan applied since 10-4-1992 and the issue of federalism for the response is not, as some say, that it tied and this is the reality that it is a legal and legitimate national of Kurdish people. And if there is a view or proposal by some that the idea of applying federalism in the south or Furat or in the western region unsuccessful at the present time, this view of us to recognize that everyone believes federal and pluralistic Iraq remains subject to a conviction of the Applied citizen in this province or that.
The problem in the Iraqis themselves
* America as a super power, but can impose security and stability in Iraq, or the survival of the situation as it is now serves a certain scenario is set in advance?
- That Iraq and the decision by the Security Council has become an occupied country and issued another resolution to the national sovereignty of Iraq, but the problem is, in my view, lies in the Iraqis themselves frame that Iraq is a country that everyone, country components country partnership is not a country autocracy and the decision if we were able to join forces and laying the foundations of building an Iraqi army to replace empowered after the withdrawal of foreign troops as happened in the provinces of Samawah, Thi-Qar and this will include the whole of Iraq if what unites us linen and sincere intentions to build a new country.
Our own solution
* May be in the American political mistakes in Iraq have made things of this tragic situation?
- I am not going to engage in such matters What I mean is that the United States should declare that it erred or not erred, as everyone knows that there is a strong debate and controversy within the American administration and within the Congress and even in the popular American about this issue and at the United Nations are such discussions as stated in a word the Secretary-General's recent about the deteriorating situation in Iraq, we must not now as Iraqis await a solution or the other because the solution in our hands and that the continuation of the deteriorating situation of the murder scene and the identity of unknown bodies and random assassinations is a threat to everyone without exception.
Attention must be before it is too late
* Will the Kurds are interested in this danger?
- Of course they are interested in the matter and would have this danger and the deteriorating situation, if not directly involved in the Territory it would have in the provinces, which consists of a diverse mix such as Kirkuk and Mosul, Diyala, Baghdad and other areas. he stressed that the government's program to address persistent problems and speed up the formation of the national army and national police, so
Able to play their role to the extent that they can impose our national sovereignty.
