KamelKeeper Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Yota, thank you for your effort to bring this over. Without going through the law line by line, it looks to be the same one that has been in the Gazette since 2011. The last entry, Article 11 allowing for the extention to June 30, 2012, which has been in place for a while. There was talk of excluding food and clothing from the tariffs, but I do not see anything in this document regarding that step. This document does not seemed to have changed, so I am wondering why it would be republished in June 2012. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocalDinar Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Yota, first off thanks for your diligence and bringing these articles to us. Can anyone help me out here? Everyone is responding that this is great news, How does this help us and strengthen the IQD.? I'm just a blue collar guy and just don't get the connection. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is responding that this is great news, How does this help us and strengthen the IQD.? I'm just a blue collar guy and just don't get the connection. From what I understand, the additional costs associated with the tariffs will further cripple the Iraqi blue collar guy, (and everyone else for that matter) by making goods more expensive. This puts more pressure on the GOI and CBI to raise the value of the dinar. If I'm wrong, I trust the folks here will correct me and we'll both be "edumicated" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So along with rising inflation and now this tarriff law which can be up to 20 % of COG the average Iraqi is getting slammed by high prices. I take it wages are not increasing so this should have the public pressuring the GOI and CBI to do something and soon. Ok I get it!! Thanks again!!

Everyone is responding that this is great news, How does this help us and strengthen the IQD.? I'm just a blue collar guy and just don't get the connection. SocalDinar, first, please don't sell yourself short with the blue collar stuff. The tariffs that are going into effect will make the cost of the goods coming into the country more expensive, which includes a major portion of the food. The Iraqis have a rich country, but it is in oil. The agriculture and other industries required to run a society have not been built up so that Iraq is a selfsustaining country. They must bring food in from other countries to survive (at this time). Saddam destroyed one of the richest agricultural regions in the Middle East, and it will come back, but for now, they must import food and clothing at a mimimum. The tariffs will add to the purchasing price of the product, so poor people would be deeply affected by a tariff. It has been thought that the RV would have to take place prior to June 30 2012 in order that the people that can afford it the least, would not be unduly impacted. If the tariffs have been postponed previously, and the June 30, 2012 date is the lastest implementation date. If the tariffs are on, the RV is on. The June 1 vs June 30 issue goes round and round and is still muddy for me. If the tariffs are in affect as of June 1, 2012, then prices have gone up. No RV yet, so the poor people are impacted. I hope that helped. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double R Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Higher exchange rate=cheaper imports and more expensive exports. Makes sense for a country like Iraq that relies on nearly every other country for day to day consumer goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
