I understand your frustrations and you have been positive for a long time. We all have our days where we want to kick the Iraqi government officials butts in gear to get things done. Maybe when I am 90 it will finally happen lol. I am hoping for a lot sooner though.

They need to stop the friggon discussions and start “negotiations” or else discussions will continue on forever. Somebody has to stop saying “no” and start saying what they will do. Stubborn discussions and “taking a stand” have so far witnessed them all chasing their own tails and running in circles..... and these are the guys in charge. Abadi should have come out of the gate saying 10% with the intent to raise it up to 12%. Now he is just going to have to up that number, and take on this battle next year, after the Kurds corruption has been cleaned up and the numbers are all in... sure is going no where now....

I did not think the Budget was going to pass and rate was going to change before the Kuwait Conference at all, ever.

 

You need to follow our threads with the tags Corruption and Referendum to understand what is really happening.

 

Kurdistan region needs to get mostly into the e-governance computer system and off the fake paperwork system.

 

They have uncover fake employees, get monies returned from fake projects and now International banks cause of the UNSC sanctions being removed.

 

They are fighting corruption of the Kurdistan regional leaders as well as Baghdad government, bankers and businesses.

 

Investment starts with borders, air space, ports and airports to get goods in.

 

Investment companies and monies need to secured and protected from misuse, corruption, and theft.

 

As far as the Budget, they need the most accurate numbers from the Kurdistan region and after an exceptionable lost for this Budget of 2018, they will pass it with the best accurate numbers with the e-governance system and the census.

 

Adabi and the CBI are also making sure the regions get paid through them and not paying the ministers directly anymore the best the can, trying to figure out the best ways to secure the funds, make sure the people are real, and each person needs to personal be in contact with national banks to get the funds.

 

Iraq is still far from safe still, imagine use living under Martial Law here and trying to go to the bank safely. Some cities are real dysfunctional or just really basically destroyed.

 

The CBI at this time also trying to IMF article complaint my trying to get the spread of the CBI rate and the street rate within 2% for 90 days to get to Article 8 and go International.

 

I can go on I am sure, but I wanted yall to know my thoughts.

 

I am not sure about this but I also think the Kurdistan government may have to be dissolved, all Oil, border crossings, ports (if any), and airports need to be turned over to the Baghdad government while the Peshmerga need to incorporate in the Iraqi Army and Police which could take up to 4 years.

[fnbplanet]

I wish they'd just give them 14% this year, and hire an outside third party to conduct a census (quickly) for next year.  Any cheating or intimidation gets them the 12.67% for 2019.  Anyone receiving ANY government payments HAS to show ID and open a bank account for direct deposit.

 

Now, is that so hard to figure out?  Eliminate the filthy b*stard, middle-man thieves.

You have thrown soooo much intelligence & common sense with your brief and concise statement - Well, these monkeys would rather argue 24/7 than get down to cases. Nonetheless, well stated fnbplanet ! 

 

No doubt the IMF & WB and god knows who else have already made efforts to make them understand this, yet their stubborn, arrogant and epic display of unwillingness to face facts in the face have led these fools to where they are today. It takes REAL talent to paint yourself into this kind of corner, huh.

Mazrour Barzani has screwed everything so much during his tenure, it would be easy to place both  Maliki and Mazrour in the “Dictator” categories. Neither knows how to rule, but only devicive ways to steal from those they were supposed to serve...
