Q : But reform mechanisms required by the agreement with the International Monetary Fund have negative effects on the social level?
This question, the Minister of Finance said that the International Monetary Fund seeks as far as possible should not be balancing consumers money oil but sought to be Iraqi funds consumed in the investment volume of operating funds so that the consumption of oil funds strained budget and placed a burden on the citizen according to the minister's opinion, but the opinion that the size of the investment funds push Iraq towards development and progress of this vein, the policy of the International Monetary refuses to be budget-consuming, not only have no work investment.

The minister pointed out that the IMF has raised some problems about the retirement law Vbacherna re-examine this law in order to overcome some of the gaps that have occurred that caused the injustice of some staff who provide substantial services to Iraq and the Iraqis.
He warned that the continued application of this law would constitute a significant burden on the state budget, explaining that the volume of funds that acted annually under this law more than 2 billion dollars annually, and that would be borne by the state budget if we add them 3 billion dollars to import derivatives of oil and $ 4 billion card ration so as to arrive Almbl G. to over 10 billion dollars, these funds constitute a financial burden as I mentioned, and then there is a pressing need to examine these matters ... This is what we call the IMF and agreed to re-examine the law to ensure the right of retiree pension and to ensure the right of the State alike.

{The following is the section that shows in Arabic at the bottom of the page you’ll have to copy and paste this portion and translate it separately if you wish to double check}

Turning Minister to the foreign debt of Iraq and $ 125 billion, indicating the completion of the write-off 80% of Iraq's debts in respect of Paris Club debts after resolving the issue of Russia, where we negotiate with, and debt relief and to resolve the matter by reducing the amount of 13 billion dollars to 800 million dollars.

Financial support of the draft National Reconciliation Asked (morning) on the role of the Ministry of Finance of the State of the initiative of the Prime Minister Maliki initiative of national reconciliation? Jabr Al statement said the Finance Minister. I'm initiative launched by the chairman of the Council of Ministers brother Maliki my personal belief of the bloodshed of Iraq and wish to re-Iraq united people and their land, and as Minister of Finance will spare no effort to support this initiative, both in the area of compensation approved by initiative victims or any paragraph came Balmb bulletin. 3 zeroes lifting of the Iraqi dinar In the morning, a question that the write-off of debts of Iraq will contribute to enhancing the value of the Iraqi dinar? Mr. Zubaidi said the statement. The value of the Iraqi dinar for monetary policy, such a policy is the responsibility of the Iraqi Central Bank, the Ministry of Finance is responsible for fiscal policy. He added, but suggested that Mr. Governor of the Central Bank Dr. Sinan Shabibi need to raise the value of the Iraqi dinar and return to normal through the lifting of three zeroes. Voadeni Mr. Governor well to hold an expanded meeting next month to study the proposal by experts in this area of the Iraqi Central Bank, Ministry of Finance and Commercial Bank, namely, the proposals to get the value of the Iraqi dinar equivalent of [to] the American dollar, this goal we will strive to achieve, God willing, during the four years Llahkom e due to the new Iraqi dinar healthy stand of the other currencies. Lastly Zubaidi corresponding reference to the International Monetary Fund to support the resolution Iraqi dinar remarkable considering that the Central Bank of Iraq financially cover $ 11 billion dollars to support the value of the Iraqi dinar and the cover is rarely found in the third world. Thereby taking morning two hours from the time the minister and exited the impression that the new plan will live up the economy of Iraq to the level of developed nations if we wrote them success and support by the government and parliament although gaps Retirement Law remained vague and needed to be clarified more and this will deal with in another meeting with Mr. Alos Ware

My take: One, the Iraqi government is saying that Private investment is going to lead the way in creating jobs in Iraq thereby solving [hopefully] the unemployment issue. They have a budget for 2007 that is relying on foreign investment funds therefore foreign investment must happen prior to 2007 in order for Iraq to reap the benefit. So the FI Law must be in the pipeline now [we have seen reports to this effect already]

Also the most important part for our concern says RAISE THE VALUE of the dinar and return to NORMAL meaning they are acknowledging that the current value of the Dinar is artificially low. The lopping theory doesn’t accomplish this. Only lifting three zeros off the exchange rate fits the bill.

According to the article they are meeting next month [July 2006] to discuss the proposal and to get the Dinar to the value equivalent to the USD. It further says that the IMF supports the idea and that the Iraqi dinar has shown remarkable stability for four years [2003-06] and that this stability is rare in the third world.

Conclusion: Revalue on the fast track prior to foreign investment law. This is the year and maybe this coming month. Looks like .68 minimum up to equal value. I almost expect it.

This has been brought up for me by "ph". It is about 40 pages ago. It was the post that made me see it as it is. I even ordered another 500,000nid's when "ph" posted this along with a link we just gave to Treater. Your right it spells it out 1-2-3 right here. Along with Mike and the missing Adster & the "Dinar Gang".

Interesting,

So what is the first thing you are going to do when revalue is announced?

I'm going to Dinarland, want to come? LOL

It all looks good, and yes, visit to US was announced for last week, but got put off due to Korean missle launch, so it was postponed a week. It all is coming together faster than anyone thought, so hold your breath, it WILL happen soon.

Good luck to all, Mike

Iraq's Oil Production Could Reach Nine Million Barrels a Day
08/07/2006
Source: Al-Sharq Al-Awsat

Iraq's oil production could reach 9.0 million barrels a day in 2016, up from around 2.4 million barrels currently, the head of international oil producer Heritage Oil, said.

But the lack of a clear development strategy for Iraq's oil resources is delaying the much-needed foreign investment required to reach this level of production, Micael Gulbenkian warned in an interview with Portugal's Lusa news agency.

"Iraq has gigantic potential," said Gulbenkian Saturday, whose company has projects in the war-torn country. "The Iraqi economy is a failure. The country doesn't have the means to develop and explore its national resources."

Iraqi authorities are torn between a policy which would seek to keep the development of the country's oil resources in national hands and a policy of openness to foreign investment in the sector, he added.

Iraq expects its daily oil production to reach 6.0 barrels per day by 2012 and be challenging Saudi Arabia as the world's largest producer by 2015, Iraq's Oil Minister Hussein Shahristani said last month.

Iraq's highest oil production was 3.5 million barrels a day, he said.

Production was about 2.5 million dollars a day when President Saddam Hussein was deposed by US-led forces in 2003. It then collapsed to virtually nothing and has been slow to rebuild because of insurgent attacks and other problems.

Heritage Oil, based in Canada, has a development property in Russia, a producing property in Oman, exploration projects in Uganda and has entered into projects in Kurdistan, Iraq.

Gulbenkian was in Lisbon to take part in a course on oil management offered to 46 Iraqis which is sponsored by Heritage Oil and Portuguese oil and gas company Galp

Bump!!

So what is the first thing you are going to do when revalue is announced?

Hey Mike,

Do you think they will actually 'announce' the revalue or would they just put up a message on the CBI website stating the change in exchange rate?? It seems to me that it would be better not to announce a revalue publicly this way if it hits 1:1 and they just 'silently' place a message and change the rate on the CBI website then perhaps it might keep millions of people scrambling to exchange most of their dinar? Just a thought for what it's worth lol. Perhaps it's just the beer talking eh?!?!?!

Cheers all,

Rob

...................chirp................chirp..... ..............chirp..............

has the dinar been pegged yet ? how much do you usually get for 100 USD ? I'm curious because I have a nephew going back to Iraq next week . he said this tour of duty is suppose to last until 2008 at least.

Has anyone used or heard of purchaseiraqidinar.com (international currency traders, LLC)? If so, what's your opinion?
