~ The budget includes the distribution of land and the construction of low-cost houses
I hope these low cost houses is a result of an increased in value of the dinar.

And I am thinking that's the way it will be. There isnt any reason for it to change and if it ever did it would cost Iraq a fortune. Sorry
And I sincerely think it will cost Iraq even more (being an importing economy) if they continue to stay at the current rate when they have all the opportunities to start with a true value of their currency, coming out from a closed economy (article 14) into an open market where their potential of growth and prosperity are there, waiting to be realised...
I simply can't think of any sensible reason why they shd stick to their current 'program' rate.

if it's going to go up in value it'll go up gradually based on pressure/inflation created as a result of significant investment and a private sector.
Kap never walk his own theory....
He said the exchange rate of dinar will increase gradually from 1190:1 to 1:1 over a certain period of time ( 6 months, 1 yr or even 2 yrs).
😎 any exchange rate movement from 1190:1 to 1:1, no matter how 'gradual' they are, no matter which way you are looking at it ~ they are going to be huge, massive & enormous.
And I think Kap needs to understand, the relationship between exchange rate and economic development....
My main problem with his theory is price stability. The very mainstay of CBI policy and existence (not to mention IMF policy as well).~ How do you maintain price stability if the exchange rate keeps changing on a daily or weekly basis?
~ then there is domestic borrowings. If today (@exchange rate of 1190), a small trader borrows 5 million dinar (abt. 5000 USD) for a period of 12 months.....how much will he be paying back monthly and how much will he be paying back eventually, 5 million dinar or 5,000 dinar?
~ How often will every government Dept and companies in Iraq, will have to adjust their employees salaries (as the exchange rate keeps changing and increasing)?
~ traders changing their prices everyday day? every week?
And jumping onto the bigger issues ~ how do they plan and manage the cost of reconstruction?
~ And how do they purchase their raw materials (when exchange rate is rising)? Do they purchase them now (and pay with more IQDs), or hold it until later (pay with less IQDs).
~ What if every contractor decides to hold until later (until when the exchange rate reach 1:1)? What happens to their reconstruction plan?
~ what if, even the govt decides to hold, as it will more viable to do so economically? Will their economy still be buzzing?
What if everybody then decided to keep their money and not spend them now?
And then...of course, the currency speculators. What do you think they will do when they see the exchange rate of IQD keep rising and rising on forex?
For me, no country will allow these kind of exchange rate uncertainties, hovering over their economies ~ there will be financial chaos.
Iraq and IQD is not yet in open market and based on that point alone, we know that the value of IQD was never at equilibrium/true value, so........to avoid financial chaos (in open market), CBI/Iraq need to price their dinar accordingly and as close to market equilibrium as possible and keep it STABLE from then on (allowing appreciations or depreciations within certain range, just like any other countries in the world).
We are currently waiting for Iraq to re-price their currency (IQD) before taking the next big step to move into open market. And I sincerely hope, 1190 is not their starting point.

We are just 3 months away from the beginning of 2020 and I personally think this month is going to be of real significant..../
We have seen too many economic/trade agreements and MOUs being signed, too many statements and indications of moving towards market economy ~ something has to happen soon.
Even the usual 'but-this-is-Iraq' is not going stop these changes.

I used to get annoyed in the rumors section but that changed when the Go Iraq thread began. I’ve never been to the islands but now I’m ready, and @zul told me to remember his name as he’s got my back, so no fear for me when arriving there solo.... I’m getting so excited. It really feels like it’s started.

Al-Ghalbi stressed that "changing the currency does not affect productivity, as well as that this change does not affect the purchasing power of money
Al-Ghalbi is describing a neutral event of deleting the zeros like what Zimbabwe, Zambia, Turki, Germany, Brazil ect......have done before. That's what deleting zeros really means ~ in general.
We have to look at the situation of those countries, the problem that they faced when they deleted the zeros........
Iraq is diff......they did not lose their wealth (oil) during the war. The value of their currency went down (inflation) because of economic sanctions (chapter 7).
When they replaced Saddam dinar in 2003, the value of dinar (IQD) were on the rise from 3000/1 to 1430(ish)/1 by Jan 2004. ( ref: Statiscal data of IQD exchange rate @ cbi.iq)
Had CBI not put a brake then (because the value of dinar was rising too fast too soon ~ Read: Billions over Baghdad), I think the value of dinar wld have been 1:1 now (easily).
Back to Al-Ghalbi statement above.
Who is this guy?
Dr. Abdul Hussein Al-Ghalbi, an economist at the Faculty of Business and Economics, University of Kufa.
He is not from CBI......and he has a general view of what deleting zeros means, just like some of us here.
So we wait for CBI.

Just got off work...but just want to say
September is the Bro Month!!!..
This is from 2012.......repeat 2012.
CBI DID try to delete the zeros starting September 2012...(so it's not necessarily must-be-at-the-beginning-of-a-new year)
To cut story short ~ sometime in Jun/July that year, there was major disagreement between Shab and Maliki....and the project was eventually postponed....
(the rest are history).
//
Parliament is a supreme committee with the central bank to start deleting the zeros
10/03/2012
Baghdad / term follow-up
Formed the Economic Committee in the House of Representatives with the Central Bank of Iraq to a joint committee to begin the process of deletion of zeros from the local currency. Said MP Abdul-Hussein Abtan told the Kurdish news agency (Rn) that the Economic Commission formed a joint committee with the Central Bank of Iraq yesterday (Thursday) to oversee the process of deleting the zeros of the local currency
Which is scheduled to begin in September next. "He added that" the Commission will provide the technical requirements and legal, administrative and paint the nature of the Iraqi market and its relevance to the deletion of the currency during the stage preceding the start delete currency as well as increase public awareness about the details of the process of removing zeros from the currency. "
He pointed out that the central bank, "promised" that he could make a change of currency and delete zeros in order to "reduce inflation" in the country.
And the parliamentary economic committee said it had agreed with the Central Bank of Iraq to begin a process of change in the local currency of next September.

Britain appoints Iraqi professor Sinan al-Shabibi as chairman of monetary policy committee
This is a clear indication/confirmation that he has nvr been idle. Britain would never have appointed someone who has been out of touch with monetary thinking......too risky.
You could almost point a finger to the recent stabilization of Iraqi dinar exchange rate vs USD as his trademark......
