Iraqis weigh pros and cons" Quote: "In Iraq's cash-driven economy, the Communications Ministry and head of the Central of Bank are getting input on a mechanism that would allow banks and shops to further facilitate the use of debit and credit cards." ...this is where the rubber (er...currency) hits the road...in the marketplace... cool article...dump the rippy old notes with all those zeroes... replace them with new polymer ones that don't deteriorate as quickly...and give them a value so small change can be made without an issue... give 'em sum coins for the Fil jar to save for a rainy day ... 7-14-2019 Intel/Newshound Guru sandyf ...Govt does not Drop the zeros...CBI does...Central banks have a limited role in the management of a currency. Changes to the monetary unit or major changes to the currency require government approval. Deletion of the 3 zeros in Iraq will affect the monetary unit and as such will require a Bill to pass through parliament, it's not going to happen any time soon..! 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
