The Middle East countries have an opportunity to build a digital economy that transforms them into a commercial service center and advanced connectivity and communication activities, a report by the World Bank said on Thursday, calling for the importance of making Iraq a hub for international connectivity in the broadband and telecommunications markets

"The region needs to invest $ 4 to $ 5.2 billion to enable 30 percent of the population to have high-speed broadband access," the bank said in a report entitled "Mashreq 2.0: Digital Transformation for Total Growth and Job Creation" Fiber Optic Technology

"The delivery of Internet to more than 13 million families in Lebanon, Jordan, Syria and Iraq needs to integrate the broadband networks in the region, including basic, terrestrial and marine networks," the report said

"Jordan and Lebanon are pioneering examples of fixed and mobile broadband services in the region, while Syria is experiencing challenges because networks are affected by existing conflicts," the report said

He added that "Syria and Iraq need to remove barriers to operators in the market and stimulate the markets of telecommunications and broadband Internet, and despite the existence of a broad infrastructure of regional networks and basic, but not exploited optimally because of war and instability, as well as the dominance of state-owned enterprises The report said that Internet exchange points and data centers are less developed in the region. There is only one data exchange center in Beirut, while there is no center in IraqSyria or Jordan

In Iraq, the report called for the removal of restrictions on private operators to build, own and operate fiber-optic infrastructure, to allow companies to reach the end-user, and to introduce telecommunications legislation that promotes competition and private sector participation, International broadband services market

The report recommended to the Lebanese authorities the need to develop a unified vision for the ICT sector, improve financial transparency of the sector, introduce competition through a common legal framework, study the structure of the broadband sector and grant licenses for the fifth generation

The World Bank called on Jordan to prepare a draft study on the fifth generation networks and grant frequencies to operators, and apply the next generation of public-private partnership, strengthen the regulatory framework and review fees and taxes to stimulate investment and ensure appropriate regulatory control

The infrastructure of broadband telecommunications services is helping to boost economic growth, as increasing the penetration rate of broadband services by 10 percent leads to an additional 1.4 percent increase in GDP

"Iraq must have three oil export lines across the Persian Gulf, Jordan and Turkey," he said, adding that "Iraq is seeking to increase the export of oil across the Gulf level of 6 million b/d."

So my crystal got it wrong for today... bummer I know. Have we any information as to when a new name will be submitted and a vote taken? I haven't seen any definite date set. Or are they just not gonna bother? I know technically they can't do that but, this is Iraq... the country that does many things backwards.

Just thinking out loud.... so the new CBI Governors passed in parliament.... do you think he will wait for a fully  seated government? Does anybody still think it will go over this weekend coming. Sadly, I am having my doubts. My crystal is still saying yes but my gut instinct says different.

Yes they were. So is the 10 day up? And, if so what next

 

What next?? That’s a loaded question when it comes to the workings of the Iraqi Government. Logic to me if I had a say in the workings of their political and financial matters would be to take a very Active approach to all things relating to being financially independent so that Iraq could be a strong player and compete with world  economies for their market share and so that their citizens had the same buying power  to compete as well.. But as you said This Is Iraq..

 @Noviceinvestor that would be the sensible thing to do.

The vote for edu is scheduled next week but as of this time, the ministry of edu is not as important as the rest of the cabs that were voted last Monday of this week. So we have to wait and see this sat when they vote on the special grades....for me, I would still go with what ur crystal says....cause I think it is still on target at this point. Cheers

Your posts are positive and uplifting  always but without being the Debbie Downer of the day I think that we will still be on this train journey heading into July and beyond ... We are watching Apathy at its best in the workings of the Iraqi Parliament.. JMO

Now a few pages ago you were all positive and this is a go. A few members jumped up and stood up for your credibility when it was questioned. Now you are doing the Classic Guru "Kicking the Can Down the Road" Move.
