OK, so I really like what Abadi said here. It appears the prohibitive corruption in executing these projects has been dealt with sufficiently to get this underway backed by the World Bank loan with appropriate monitoring in place. The Operating Projects and Loans For Business Purposes aught to get things going in the eyes of the impoverished. I suspect caring for the impoverished is key to stave off sectarian violence that could lead to Civil War due to insufficient resources. A win here to the impoverished should help for the upcoming elections in May, especially Abadi, since the GOI is then likely seen as viable to address the needs of the impoverished.

 

The money flux here into Iraq is maybe the trickle through the crack in the dam to unleash the tsunami of foreign investment in Iraq???!!!

 

We wait and see!!!

 

Go Moola Nova!

Economist doubts whether national poverty reduction strategy can be achieved



 The range / Zahraa al-Jassim 
 

An economist criticized the approval of the Supreme Committee for Poverty Alleviation Policies for the National Strategy for Poverty Alleviation in Iraq for the period 2018-2022, returning them to the ashes in Asyoun, as its predecessors, and it is not expected to witness any realizations on the ground, stressing that what is to be done now is investment Donor funds to establish infrastructure and services for all governorates, and start development projects to develop the economy and increase employment opportunities. 
The press office of Prime Minister Haider Abadi said in a statement on Tuesday that a meeting of the Higher Committee for Poverty Alleviation Policies resulted in the adoption of the national strategy through the launch of funding to complete the outstanding projects for the housing of the poor and the construction of schools, And promote the establishment of pilot villages in the Iraqi countryside, with the need to continue to evaluate alternatives to the construction of economic housing to address the housing indiscriminate.
"All these strategies and initiatives are ink on paper," said economist Hamza al-Jawahiri in an interview with Al-Mada. "It seems that officials in government institutions believe when studies show that they have accomplished something, but we see the lesson not in preparing a strategy, The implementation of the activities and plans on the ground, and this is what has not happened in more than ten years, where the strategies are not implemented, but also: Poverty exists similar to the rest of the problems faced by Iraq in the place of economic construction and management of the economic file in full and the implementation of strategies, Lies in its diversification Industrial, agricultural and tourist, but it is unfortunate that what exists so far is a random way in tourism, reconstruction and construction.
He added: "When we move on the file of economic construction will certainly reduce levels of poverty gradually, and will be available jobs through new projects, and our problem that we do not yet have production, how to go to build villages and cities inhabited by people without work ,? We have a child hospital in the Baghdad housing area where there is no medicine, and families are told to go and buy medicine for your children from the neighboring pharmacy. , Who will go to build villages and establish services, hospitals and schools in those villages? "We have to be frank and say that we are going to elections and a new government and to launch such talk is to distract the street from thinking properly about how to build the country.
"In any case, we do not want to discourage us. We believe that the best solution is to integrate the poverty reduction strategy with the rest of the strategies and to sit a team that we call the crisis team in Iraq to look at the priorities of the country and to put before it all the old and new strategies, , Since any real step of action must be mitigated. Iraq has an invisible poverty and hundreds of thousands of unemployed people who are on the road from the owners of vehicles and pedestrians. Therefore, we must first encourage the industrial, agricultural and tourist sectors in the country, Job opportunities for these and help Projects implemented by young people in the provinces and villages, so we find two producers in this country. What is being said about the adoption and adoption of strategies is in fact jumping on the priorities that must be started. Today, Iraq does not need beautiful dreams but means of implementation in vigilance. .
Al-Gawhar continues: "The donors' conference and the large sums of money that may contribute to the implementation of part of this strategy, but this depends first on the Iraqi negotiator, who will lead the dialogue to donors according to priorities of their development. Yes, donor funds can contribute to the construction of infrastructure and services and to all Iraqi governorates, but secondly to development. Some of these funds must be allocated to development projects, because any development project contributes to the development of the economy, alleviates poverty and increases employment opportunities. We have to say that we have started implementing the strategy referred to by the High Committee for Poverty Alleviation Policies.
The statement of the Prime Minister's Office of Information stated that the goal of approving the National Strategy for Poverty Alleviation in Iraq is to reduce general poverty levels, pointing out that "Abadi stressed that Iraq must leave the situation of extreme poverty and food insecurity by following measures aimed at vulnerable groups during the period Implementation of this strategy with a stronger follow-up on this, where the Committee approved the emergency project to support (social stability and steadfastness), to loan the World Bank to be distributed to operating projects and loans for business purposes.

804k12.jpg

 BAGHDAD - Iraqi Planning Minister Salman Jumaili announced on Sunday the launch of a four-year poverty reduction strategy for the country from 2018 to 2022. The strategy was launched at a conference in Baghdad attended by Jumaili, who said the strategy would be adopted. On an accurate database that includes the poverty rate and economic conditions of the population nationwide.  
He added that it will focus on the development of the poor, through strategic projects that provide employment opportunities for the unemployed, as well as help them within the social welfare network.  
According to the official figures released by the Ministry of Planning, the poverty rate in the country is up to the end of 2013, indicating that it reaches 16 percent. 
It is estimated that the poverty rate has risen steadily since then, reaching 22 in 2014 and then to 30 percent in 2016.
In 2017, over a period of six months, the Ministry of Planning conducted a nationwide survey on living conditions and poverty, but has yet to announce any results.  
Al-Jumaili said the latest survey showed a high level of poverty in the country, which the government should deal with and address and mitigate its effects, but did not provide a specific figure.  
The poverty rate in Iraq has increased since 2014, as a result of the sharp drop in oil prices, which accounts for about 95 percent of the country's expenditure.  
The war against the "Islamic State" terrorist organization in three years has also contributed to the increase in poverty in the country as a result of its high expenditures and the destruction of many infrastructure and houses of the population.

Iraq, under the auspices of the United Nations, celebrated the adoption by the Council of Ministers of the implementation of the second national strategy for poverty alleviation for the years 2018-2022 and in the presence of diplomatic representatives of Arab and foreign embassies and international organizations .  

In other words, it is the second five-year plan to complement the first strategy to reduce the rate of one-third of the poverty line or below it, which is included in the global classification of the limits of income per capita of the population of Iraq, which is the index of the continuation of living with the availability of one meal a minimum of a day; From ensuring the necessities of health, housing, clothing and education, that is, we are dealing with the phenomenon of homeless citizens or human beings and their right to feed and shelter in social centers .

If we want to dismantle this introduction without mockery or irony, we will reach the same result of frustration in a country where the facts are linked to the general failure and the rule of death and the spread of the concepts of loss that have moved in Iraq from personal behavior and intellectual stupidity in the style of artistic and literary wave characterized by Baghdad in the old and modern, It has been a tradition that has produced human models on its soil and contradictions, but despite all criticism, rejection or acceptance, it added a flavor related to the existential experiences of cosmopolitan cities where poverty and for decades as an innovative text of a novel of great hopes or a lost poem in public gardens or a painting of an artist dying of starvation and love and he Looking to his paintings in the auction hall of art artifacts a century after his departure sold millions .

Baghdad for a time, to those who co-exist with it, was a human city in every sense of the word if we stripped of the political distortions that affected chronic diseases and distributed their side effects even on the relations within the same family; we find a city overly concerned about its social destiny and the biography and privacy of its stores and continue its people without barriers nationalities or Religions or doctrines .

That in Iraq there is a strategy followed by patriotism to alleviate poverty, meaning that the ruling state of Iraq recognizes, under the pressure of facts and rates of decline in development and economy and the will of the world banking system, specifically the World Bank, to help to qualify its activities as a developing country, Corruption, backwardness, poverty and crisis .

Here is the question of why Iraq does not declare a state of emergency, as happens in the context of major disasters and catastrophes. Why do not the United States and the permanent members of the UN Security Council put Iraq under the list of countries most affected by the sectarian civil war and rampant corruption in the infrastructure of the state, and not only the pretexts of the war on terrorism and low oil prices as the main causes of poverty?

The World War on Terror The cities of Anbar, Falluja, Salahuddin and the city of Mosul, in which we mean the old Mosul, which turned into a mass grave, still have local civil defense teams with limited means, unable to retrieve the remaining bodies. Estimates go up to 10,000 bodies with no counting And the diagnosis in the work of forensic medicine due to the number of victims with the tendency of some of the militia to leave rotting bodies in the alleys on the pretext of neglecting the dead from the organization of the Islamic state .

This ongoing war after the declaration of its end, explain the plight of Iraq in the poverty of millions of its inhabitants after the displacement in the camps and displacement camps; they are unemployed and suffer from the absence of the basic elements of citizens in poor countries placed on the scale of famine, drought and natural disasters, To an international aid to deliver food and medical aid .

The second strategy is that Iraq has achieved the strategy of the first period. A simple reading reveals the huge failure of a 95 percent oil-dependent economy with the mass execution of private sector projects and the cessation of major industrial projects for reasons of destruction in the war of occupation or neutralization of violence and terrorism. Diverse or non-subsidized or infamous corruption .

The launch of the term strategy suggests comprehensive development and the upgrading of the banking and economic system in line with the World Bank and IMF's reformary approaches to financing policies by adopting loans to bridge the balance of payments gaps, which act as a link to monetary policies on a common platform of reforms and remedies .

Where are the features of the first strategy to celebrate the second and to spread its efforts to reduce poverty without war by issuing laws and opening prospects to abolish old systems and bring investment and confidence in performance with international companies .

The multiplicity of retirement and private salaries, which we referred to in an earlier article and for the purposes of discrimination according to party, sectarian and political tendencies, is no longer absent from the World Bank and its monitoring, follow-up and analysis because it is one of the things that are silent about it, especially concerning the waste of millions of funds on institutions whose systems could be merged and Directorate of public retirement according to laws can not be manipulated. Has the government followed issues related to the number of deaths of terrorist operations for the purposes of obliterating investigation files and eliminating the features of corruption or assassinations?

Only $ 300 million is the World Bank's Poverty Reduction Facility Loan; this figure does not seem repulsive to a political system that has been hit by global banking reviews that forced it to suspend appointments for 3 years in a country where unemployment is 40 percent, A significant disguised unemployment in the departments and directorates of his ministries following the abolition of many institutions after the occupation and the transport of workers .

How does Iraq rise when it separates its martyrs? Where are the rights of the martyrs of Iraq in its war with Iran? How are families of martyrs treated in pensions and privileges? Did not a number of deputies and active members of the political process call for the abolition of their most basic rights and how they wanted to destroy the martyr's monument with its beautiful architectural edifice because it reminds them of resisting the Iraqis without exception and the size of their sacrifice to defend their homeland to stop the Iranian tide .

How was the years of imprisonment for the penalties of theft of public funds during the time of the siege for purposes of retirement and allowances and rewards as fighters against the former regime of hundreds of sentenced to non-political issues to pass political objectives and bribes financial scandal, and this leads us to the number of thieves who converted to militants in sectarian parties and some of the political fronts After the occupation?

 

How to reduce poverty with a five-year strategy and a $ 300 million loan from the World Bank? Those who want reconciliation and the strengthening of the unity of society must start by reconciling all the martyrs of Iraq first, then thinking about reform and building the democratic system. Is it not our right as a people to raise life on our hands at the dawn of something, and take Iraq out of the box of death and hunger and homelessness, or at least from the crime fund to elect agents of the occupation

Poverty alleviation program meets basic needs

It aims to address the concentration of wealth

Baghdad / Emad Al-Amara
The success of the poverty alleviation program in Iraq requires strengthening and supporting redistribution policies by adopting a growth policy that is fundamentally equitable because the economic structure of each country is the most important factor influencing any strategy to redistribute income among citizens. Economic, social, and direct and indirect taxes on income, assets and prices paid for goods and services transferred (transfer expenses), stressing that " In the distribution system are prerequisites for a redistributive policy. "

Poverty Reduction  
Hisham added that "factors play an important role in shaping the policy of reducing poverty and addressing the concentration of wealth and unfairness." He explained that "the most important factors are the economic structure of the country, the level of development achieved, and economic philosophy of the economic file." 
"Policies for empowering the poor can not be achieved without reform and the effective participation of citizens in making their decisions, and this depends on the ability of individuals based on their income and education," he said. Distribution of Income Hisham pointed to the importance of "equity in the distribution of income for the success of any macroeconomic framework that seeks to achieve this. Three objectives must be achieved: first, achieving growth rate exceeding population growth rate; second, reducing growth volatility; and third, directing growth towards a fairer path. "He said.


"Different mechanisms can be used to redistribute income, including reforming the tax system, based on progressive taxes on income, restitution of property taxes, moderate taxes, reallocation of public spending and a focus on education and health, which would reduce unemployment," he said. Small projects Hisham pointed to the need to "find solutions that are a priority in reducing poverty, and to encourage the financing of small projects as a way to reduce unemployment and encourage the private sector, as well as keep the support within the scope of the eligible and check the social protection network periodically as a kind of safety for the poor deserving and reducing Of waste and financial and administrative corruption in this  area. "  Consumer capacity


"The improved understanding of poverty and the recognition of its multiple dimensions have shown two results: the first is the wide range of strategies and policy packages used to combat poverty, alleviate the hardships of the poor, and the widespread recognition that these strategies and policies are interrelated." Standards and pointed out that "the most important measurement criteria of poverty are the financial criteria or economic effect that poverty is a lack of income or consumption, ie the lack of income or required to meet current basic needs of consumer power or attain a minimum standard of living, and a point chapter in Income or consumption which is referred to as an poverty line is the limit that if the income of the family or individual or the level of consumption is reduced, it is classified in the field of the poor.


Non-economic criteria for measuring poverty, according to Hisham, focus on output rather than income. They measure poverty according to the non-economic aspects of well-being, such as health, education, environment, empowerment and participation.
