Yes Iraq: Baghdad

The recent economic crisis in Iraq, which reached the government deficit by paying salaries, has brought back enthusiasm to the economic experts in Iraq, to put forward what they have been saying for years, and in front of the closed roads and the "helpless" economic strategy that Iraq is following at the present time and recognized by the Ministry of Finance and the current government, A large number of Iraqi economic experts agree on a very important and necessary fate.

 

It is clearly known to everyone that the biggest cause of the current economic crisis and its effects on Iraq due to Corona, is the decline in oil prices as well as the reduction in oil sales according to the OPEC agreement, which easily shook the Iraqi economic entity within a few months, in a situation that makes Iraq, its sons and its money a hostage to the market mood Global oil prices and sudden conditions

 

From this standpoint, Iraqi economists agree on the need to exit from the "rentier economy", and to go immediately to the oil and non-oil industries, export, tourism and investment, and various other fields and sectors. Economists agree that their behavior and work in them will be linked to a boom in the Iraqi economy.

 

See also: the delay in salaries "will be repeated" .. The likelihood of escalating in economic circles and a proposal that will transfer Iraq to an economic "competitive" position in the world!

 

 

4 files will cause a boom in the Iraqi economy

Economic specialist Jamal Shaker said that the current economic crisis was formed as a result of the wrong economic policy of previous governments, indicating that exit from it requires an independent political decision.

Shaker said in press statements that the country's dependence on the rentier economy is wrong and it can be transformed into diversified by paying attention to religious tourism facilities and restoring life to factories that have been out of work for years and activating the investment economy by attracting capital owners and converting oil into industrial products, indicating that If these files were applied according to well-thought-out plans, a boom would occur in the Iraqi economy.

He added that Iraq possesses all the ingredients for economic advancement and prosperity, but external interference in the political decision prevents the progress towards achieving a strong economy through which the daily life requirements of the citizen can be secured and the return of confidence in state institutions.

 

 

Delay in salaries will be repeated .. The strategic solution is "simple"

For his part, the economist Mahdi Douai stressed that the delay in paying the salaries of the country's employees will recur, and while noting that the economic crises will be more severe in the future, he stressed the need for Iraq to move from the rentier economy to the diversified as a strategic solution for the future.

Douai, dean of the Faculty of Economic Administration at the University of Diyala, said, "The economy of Iraq in general depends for the most part on a rentier commodity (referring to crude oil, whose prices are determined according to the principle of supply and demand), meaning that the determination of prices is outside our control." A rentier economy in the world, its risks are greater and its capabilities in facing economic challenges are weaker. Therefore, the exposure of the country's economy to financial shocks will continue.

Douai added, "Iraq's transition from a rentier economy to a diversified economy is a strategic necessity by investing our capabilities in many sectors, including agriculture and industry, and achieving self-sufficiency, which will provide 3 positive and important things, which are the absorption of unemployment and the provision of hard currency, not to mention its repercussions in supporting the exchange rate." The dinar will make the level of facing any setbacks stronger.

The Dean of the Faculty of Economics at the University of Diyala indicated that "the salary crisis will not be resolved as long as we depend on oil in a very large percentage to finance the country's budget," noting that "there are countries whose economic situation was worse than Iraq, including Rwanda, which decided to move to the stage of diversifying the economy Opening the doors to investment and tourism, to turn it into the 40th place in economic competitiveness around the world.

The economic expert advised, “the formation of economic committees supported by experts from Iraqi universities to develop future solutions for the national economy because immediate solutions will not be able to face crises, especially in light of the fluctuations in the energy sector and the emergence of Corona, not to mention the demographic explosion in Iraq and the rise of its population significantly. It calls for developing a long-term strategy for the national economy file.

 

 

There is no deficit in the budget .. but in the monetary balance

The economist, Imad Abdul Latif, elaborated on conveying a "huge" opinion to what he described as his "professor", the economic expert, Dr. Ahmad Al-Buraihi, about the problem of the government's inability to pay the salaries of employees, and clarifying the confusion and confusion between the general budget, the cash budget, and the financial management crisis in Iraq.

Abd al-Latif, in his lengthy explanation followed by Yass Iraq, began by asking: “Is the“ problem ”of the government's inability to pay employees’ salaries a “fabricated”, “fabricated” and immediate problem that is being exaggerated in the short term .. and it is solvable in the long run Al-Taweel .. and that the monetary and financial institutions (and authorities) in the country know the causes and dimensions of this “problem” well, and know (and this is the important thing) that they are able to develop appropriate solutions for them, with the means and resources available to them?

 

He added, “About this question, my esteemed professor and the beautiful Iraqi mind, Dr. Ahmad Ibrihi Ali, answer the following:

The problem is not in salaries, as the current crisis can be managed with internal borrowing, and the Central Bank is helping government banks to perform this task, for the remainder of 2020 and 2021.

- The delay in the payment of salaries occurred due to obstacles of a coordination and procedural nature between the government and the parliament. And that it is easy to overcome these obstacles, and it is expected (logically) that salaries will not be late, nor should they.

- There is always fear of intimidation and confusion between medium and long-term goals, that is, between those goals related to development and diversification, on the one hand, and the ongoing management of financial and monetary operations on the other hand.

And here it is no secret for any Iraqi, or those familiar with the economic affairs of Iraq, that the general budget revenues, other than crude oil, appear to be non-existent, and that the financial sector is strange in its underdevelopment .. No taxes are sought, nor are bonds bought by the public .. What remains but borrowing from the banking system, and what remains other than auctions, satirical poems that do not work.

- There is an axiom that the deficit in Iraq is twin, or double, that is, a deficit in the balance of payments, and a deficit in the state's general budget. This occurs because oil exports are almost the only source of foreign exchange, which when the price collapses below the volume required to finance imports of goods, services and other payments.

- The problem of Iraq and the threat looming in the future is the potential deficit of the balance of payments, not the deficit in the state's general budget.

Emphasizing the need to prepare the cash budget (or management cash) as a basic element in managing public spending to avoid surprises and sharp changes, as much as possible, and also to regulate borrowing whose close relationship with the monetary policy and international reserves of the Central Bank is not hidden.

- The core issue in the monetary budgets in Iraq is the distinction, without ambiguity, between two systems of funds and inflows and outflows, namely: funds, resources and uses in foreign currency, and another in the national currency.

- Here, we must abandon the approach recognized in the Ministry of Finance, which is that resources and uses are the same, and are expressed in two currencies: a dinar and a dollar. The budget, according to the prevailing and influential perception in decision-making circles, is oil revenues in dollars that are mathematically translated into dinars and spent.

- This understanding was behind a lot of confusion, and was also a major reason for impeding the development proposals. This understanding is the truest expression of the reason for the split between the external balance of payments and the general budget in Iraq, in thinking and economic policy, and it is also one of the causes of theoretical ambiguity and neglecting the realistic difference between the necessities and implications of internal and external borrowing. (For more details, see Professor Ibrihi’s study, the task: “Budgets Cash to the government finance department, ”link is mentioned in the comments).

Hence the necessity to focus on building productive capacities destined for export. (Professor Ibrihi had previously presented (in his latest research) a brief proposal for an investment program for this purpose) .. And now also, here he is repeating his call to everyone who is keen on the future of children and grandchildren, to be a support and aid in order to focus awareness on an investment program to build Productive capacities for export, and that the government immediately commits to it.

The economy, any economy, is limited by two restrictions: the domestic productive capacity restriction, and the balance of payments restriction. As long as the economy does not approach the limits of production capacity, as is the case in Iraq, the explosion of inflationary waves is not afraid, regardless, yes, regardless of how the public budget deficit is financed.

- But the problem here lies in the restriction of the balance of payments, because the foreign exchange inflows into Iraq are less than the annual demand. Until now, the reserves of the central bank are still filling this deficiency between foreign exchange inflows and annual demand, and imports are still funded in the required volume..and this process (with the continuation of the low level of oil price) will reach its maximum limits .. Yes, it will reach its maximum limits if we remain We are unable to find solutions ... but not in 2021.

- Everyone (economists, or those concerned with economic affairs) should review the data of the World Bank (WDI) (World Development Indicators | DataBank) data ... as it will become clear to them that the percentage (or share) of manufacturing exports to total exports constitutes more than 70% The world level), and in the countries of East Asia and Germany, this percentage reaches 80%, then 90%.

Therefore, Professor Ibrihi suggests that 70% of the non-oil exports targeted in the investment program be from the share of the manufacturing industry, and the remainder from non-oil mining (including gas and agriculture), and that we have no other choice. As for the infrastructure, there are specific proposals for their development.

- With great regret, the members of Parliament, the government (including the Ministries of Planning and Finance), as well as economics professors, have insisted on defining the problem as a problem of deficit in the state budget, when in fact it is a problem of deficit in the balance of payments.

Mr. Ibrihi concludes his answer by stressing that the problem is not in salaries, nor in “monetizing debt,” but rather in distracting awareness from the necessity of economic growth through industrialization ... that miraculous historical process that made the civilization of this world.

Intense dialogues precede the session of the Iraqi parliament to settle the election law

Baghdad
Baraa Al-Shammari
09 October 2020

The Iraqi political forces and parliamentary blocs continue their dialogues aimed at agreeing on a single formula for the form of electoral districts in order to resolve the election law in the parliamentary session designated for that tomorrow morning, Saturday. 

A member of the Parliament's Legal Committee confirmed to Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed, on condition of anonymity, that the political forces did not agree until Friday morning on a unified formula for the shape of the electoral districts, explaining that the matter that cannot be bypassed by these blocs is that each governorate is divided To multiple electoral districts, after the widespread rejection of attempts by some parties to return to the previous electoral laws that considered each governorate a single electoral district. 

 

He pointed out that there are 3 proposals under discussion, the first stipulating the division of each governorate into 3 or 4 electoral districts, and the second calling for the adoption of the previous division while granting privacy to the governorates of Baghdad, Nineveh and Basra, by granting the three mentioned governorates a greater number of constituencies due to the high population density in them compared to In other Iraqi provinces. As for the third proposal adopted by the deputies of the Sadrist-backed "Sairoun" coalition, it is to divide Iraq into multiple electoral districts, the number of which is equal to the number of members of parliament.

The same source explained that the lack of agreement on one of the three proposals makes the Saturday session open to all possibilities, meaning that it may witness voting in the form of electoral districts, or it may be delayed as a result of the absence of agreement, which is what the member of parliament for the "Sairoun" coalition went to Sabah Taloubi, who spoke about the difficulty of resolving the election law at the Saturday session, explaining in a press briefing that some blocs are inconsistent with the various departments because they believe that they will lose a lot of seats.

And he expressed his hope that an agreement on the issue of multiple circles will soon be concluded, explaining that this issue is still a subject of disagreement between the political blocs, and it has not been resolved.

For his part, Fadel Al-Fatlawi, a member of the House of Representatives for the Al-Fateh coalition, said that the parliament session that will be held on Saturday will be devoted to discussing the distribution of electoral districts in the provinces, pointing out in an interview to local media that there are multiple views on the division of districts. 

He explained that the issue of the constituencies will be the main topic of tomorrow's session, and that there will be discussions regarding the delay in the distribution of employees' salaries. 

It is noteworthy that the Iraqi protests that began last year had forced the Iraqi parliament to vote in December 2019 on a new election law that allows voting for individual candidates regardless of their party lists. He also divided the governorates into multiple electoral districts, unlike the previous electoral laws that considered each governorate a single electoral district. However, the parliament did not complete the appendix to the election law relating to the division of electoral districts within the governorates, which made this issue a subject of political controversy over the past 9 months. .

The United Nations expects Iraq's economy to contract by 10% during 2020

The Iraqi economy affected by the decline in oil revenues and the repercussions of Corona (France Press)

Forecasts issued by the United Nations showed that Iraq's gross domestic product has decreased by 10 percent this year, driven by the negative consequences of the outbreak of the Corona pandemic and the crisis of falling oil prices.

The United Nations stated in a press briefing, on Wednesday evening, that the fiscal deficit will reach an unprecedented level of nearly 30 percent of GDP this year.

 

According to the summary, the United Nations Development Program recommended expanding social security coverage for vulnerable groups in Iraq, increasing revenue generation to finance key government programs, and allocating more resources to developing the private sector.

He cautioned that "there are two shocks that hindered the country's progress in the path of reform and public finance, which are the oil crisis and the Corona pandemic."

And private sector employees in Iraq were more vulnerable to poverty risks than public sector workers, especially those with low incomes, as well as workers in the informal sector, as well as female-headed households, according to the United Nations.

It recommended that additional financing options should be identified urgently, avoiding ill-considered monetary reforms, improving the quality and targeting of public spending, and supporting the non-oil private sector.

This comes as the country's public finances were affected by the duality of oil prices falling to their lowest level in two decades earlier this year, to an average of $ 15 a barrel, before it later rose to an average of $ 40.

The country was also affected by the decline in the quantities of oil exports, with its commitment to the "OPEC +" agreement to reduce production, which decided to cut members 9.7 million barrels as of last May, before reducing the reduction to 7.7 million barrels from last August until the end of 2020.

And Iraq, the second largest producer of crude oil in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), with an average daily production of 4.6 million barrels per day under normal conditions.

Why are salaries late? ... a parliamentary invitation to host Al-Kazemi and the Finance Minister

The MP for the National Approach bloc, Hussein Al-Oqabi, called on Thursday to host Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, Minister of Finance Ali Allawi, and the personalities and authorities concerned with the salary file inside the parliament, to find out the part of the salary delay and the truth of what happened during the past two weeks.

Al-Oqabi said, "The financial crisis that the country was exposed to, especially with regard to the issue of salaries, revealed to us a once-truth, which is the inability of the government in general and the inability of the first official to address this file, which is the Ministry of Finance and the Prime Minister." Based on the salary sector, we have eight million people who receive salaries from the state, and disrupting them means strangling the country and taking it to the brink of the abyss and the unknown.

"The problem we have is not going over this month or the next, but rather with the mentality of those in charge of power in this file," Al-Uqabi added. After they failed over the past 100 days to present the economic reform paper and the reform plan, they were unable to finance the necessary expenditures, which are salaries, pointing out that "Confusion is clear, mismanagement is clearer, and failure between the bright minds does not require analysis and standing on it."

He pointed out, "the importance of hosting the Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance and all the personalities and parties concerned with the salary file inside the parliament, to find out the partial delay in salaries and the truth of what happened during the past two weeks, uncover the truth before public opinion and correct the performance and work of the government.

Al-Uqabi stressed that “there is a need to see the reasons for the conflicting statements resulting from a bitter fact, namely the lack of knowledge or briefing on the crisis, on the one hand declaring the impossibility of financing salaries without approving the new borrowing law, and at the same time, after a day he meets with the governor of the Central Bank for a meeting whose features or limits are not clear. But it seems to me that there is a hidden plan to drain the strategic storage of the Iraqi state in the central bank.

And he added, "All the government's positions during the past ten or fifteen days were clear and evident that there was an impossibility to finance salaries before the borrowing law was enacted, so what happened overnight?"

He added, "It seems to me clearly and according to what we see and hear that the meeting between the Minister of Finance and the Governor of the Central Bank was possibly related to withdrawing part of the bank’s strategic treasury to finance and cover the deficit in salaries, and if this is correct, it will put us in great embarrassment in the face of international obligations and the Iraqi people and institutions. Official by finding a fallacy or circumventing the authority and the law.

The United Nations reveals its forecasts on poverty in Iraq

The United Nations reveals its forecasts on poverty in Iraq
  
{Baghdad: Al Furat News} The United Nations Development Program expects an increase in the poverty rate in Iraq to 31 percent during this year, proposing to the Iraqi government steps that would reduce the impact of the crises on the country's economy.

"A recent study conducted jointly with UNICEF and the World Bank indicates that poverty rates in 2017 and 2018 were just over 20 percent," said Barbara Craigsman, the first coordinator for the assessment of the social and economic impact of the UN program.

She added that the projections suggest that "the poverty rate will rise to 31 percent in 2020, and this means that there will be a significant impact on the population."

The UN official said that the most prominent economic impacts resulting from the crisis of low prices as a result of the Corona pandemic on the Iraqi economy, which would "divert the path of Iraq away from sustainable development."

She said, "The government will not have sufficient funds to spend it on basic priorities, and we also see that the population's need is increasing in general, and this means that expectations indicate that more people will fall below the poverty line."

"There is a real possibility that the country's trajectory will reverse away from sustainable development, and you can imagine how this is a cause for concern," she said.

The United Nations Development Program issued a new report in a series of reports examining the impact of the double crisis in Iraq, the oil crisis and the Corona pandemic, on the Iraqi economy and ways to recover from its repercussions.

The report, issued on Wednesday, included recommendations to the Iraqi government, which included expanding social security coverage for the poor, increasing funding revenues for major government programs, and allocating more resources for the development of the private sector. These recommendations aim to alleviate the economic challenges and ensure continued progress towards achieving the sustainable development goals.

And Craigsman notes that the recommendations proposed by the report to mitigate the negative impacts of these crises on the Iraqi economy depend on two main axes, "the first is that the government must review its policies and systems so that they can plan to address the financial gap they are suffering from."

She adds that the second axis is that "whatever decisions the government takes, whether it is developing new policies or new programs to meet the needs, especially the needs of the most vulnerable groups in the country, it needs to do so in a comprehensive and exclusive manner."

For its part, the Iraqi government confirmed that it is working to reconsider the plans put in place to address these crises.

A spokesman for the Ministry of Planning, Abdul Zahri Al-Hindawi, reveals, "an upcoming conference will be held this month with the participation of international partners to develop a plan that responds to the economic and social challenges left by the Corona pandemic and the oil crisis."

Al-Hindawi adds that Iraq needs funds to support plans to address the repercussions of these crises, and shows that the problem of Iraq lies in the enormity of expenditures, especially consumer and operational expenditures.

He continues that the government intends to take measures to mitigate the effects of the Corona pandemic, including canceling the curfew to support the private sector.

The internal debt heralds a major collapse of the Iraqi economy

Parliamentary moves to question the Minister of Finance after paying the salaries of state employees in a surprising way

Unofficial estimates indicate that about 8 million people are entitled to salaries from the state treasury (page of the Iraqi Prime Minister's Media Office)

After the Iraqi government announced the release of employee salaries for the month of September, several questions arose about how to provide these funds, especially after the Iraqi Ministry of Finance had previously linked the launch of salaries to the parliament's vote on the borrowing law, given the financial scarcity the state is going through.
In parallel, indicators of bankruptcy seem clear in Iraq, as observers indicate, especially with the continued collapse of the oil market, and the large volume of salaries that reach about $ 5 billion per month, while the value of oil imports last September reached about $ 3.1 billion, which means that the crisis continues Cumulatively with indications that the oil market situation has not improved.
Unofficial estimates indicate that the number of those entitled to salaries from the state treasury is about 8 million people, including civil and military employees, retirees, subject to the Social Welfare Fund, and others.

Fears of bankruptcy

Despite the Ministry of Finance's assurances at the beginning of this month, that it was unable to pay the salaries of employees without the approval of Parliament on the borrowing law, it began to pay the salaries on the instructions of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi.
"The Ministry of Finance confirms that late payments of public sector salaries for the month of September will begin to be paid in full, based on the directives of the Prime Minister," the minister's office said in a statement. The statement added, "The Ministry indicates that it is obligated to fulfill its legal obligations, despite the acute shortage of revenues facing the country, and looks forward to cooperating with the House of Representatives and the relevant authorities in order to develop quick solutions to address the current economic and financial crisis."
The Ministry of Finance warned that "the financial pressure in the country will continue in the foreseeable future, as the country's main source of income from oil exports will be constantly affected by the decrease in global demand and the massive outbreak of the Corona pandemic."
Regarding the economic reform paper, the statement affirmed that "the task force led by the ministry has completed the white paper for economic reform, and the ministry is about to finalize the 2021-2022 budget."
The Ministry of Finance talk showed the size of the economic problem that Iraq is going through, and support for observers' concerns that the country is heading towards "bankruptcy" and pressure on the economy with additional debts.

Questioning the Minister of Finance

 The delay in salaries sparked a sharp wave of dissatisfaction among state employees, and while the ministry justified not releasing salaries due to its need to pass the borrowing law in the Iraqi parliament, MPs in the Parliamentary Finance Committee considered, earlier, that the government is deliberately throwing the ball in the court of Parliament, to force it to Voting on the borrowing law without submitting an economic reform paper.
A member of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Representative Shirwan Mirza, expressed his surprise at the possibility of the Ministry of Finance providing cash to release employees ’salaries without the borrowing law, indicating that“ the ministry insisted earlier on its inability to pay salaries without passing the borrowing law. ”
Mirza pointed out that what drives the deputies to the reservations about voting on the second borrowing law is "trying to know the size of revenues and expenditures, and how the previous borrowing was spent, as well as how to face the economic crisis." He added in an interview with The Independent Arabia, "We are still waiting for the economic reform paper that has not yet arrived, in addition to the 2020 budget law that has not been sent to Parliament." He asked, "We do not know whether the Ministry of Finance will continue to resort to borrowing in the face of the financial crisis or That it has a plan or program to confront the crisis. "
Mirza revealed movements among parliamentarians to question the Minister of Finance, stressing that "the minister will be asked about how to provide these funds, in addition to several questions about the ministry's balances, the volume of imports and hard currency in it."
Despite the Parliament’s Finance Committee’s talk about the ministry’s attempt to pressure Parliament to pass borrowing without submitting a financial reform paper, observers believe that the ministry is forced to borrow, especially with the fact that the monthly oil imports do not cover the money owed by the government to pay the salaries of its employees, With the continued decline in oil prices as a result of the Corona pandemic and shrinking global demand


Undermining economic development

 Perhaps the economic concerns go beyond the possibility of the Iraqi government providing salaries for employees, as economists indicate that continuing to borrow and flood the country with large debts will undermine economic development, and make the budgets of the coming years mere tools to serve the debt and provide salaries.
In the context, the former director of financial operations at the Central Bank of Iraq, Mahmoud Dagher said, "The increase in debt, especially in the short term, makes debt payments (interest and installments) large, which prevents the establishment of investment projects later," indicating that "this is a dilemma that keeps Iraq rentier par excellence." .
Dagher revealed to "The Independent Arabia", that "debt service in 2019 amounted to about 9 trillion dinars (about 7.5 billion dollars), and it may reach the limits of 20 trillion dinars (about 17 billion dollars) next year," indicating that this "will prevent Activating any investment projects in Iraq. "
"The general budget is the most reliable financial policy weapon in achieving growth and diversifying the Iraqi economy and removing it from unilateral dilemmas, through the investment part therein," he said.
The Iraqi economy depends almost entirely on oil to supplement its financial imports, in the absence of economic investments, the deterioration of the local industrial and agricultural sectors and their inability to support the country's general budget, while annual estimates indicate that the size of the intervention of economic sectors outside oil does not exceed the best Conditions are within 9 percent of the country's budget.

Application of the World Bank program

 With the increasing fears of the continuation of the financial crisis, and the lack of feasible solutions to it, specialists in the economy revealed the possibility that the continuation of internal borrowing would lead to an economic collapse at the end of 2021, and a very large decrease in the reserves of the Central Bank of Iraq.
Political economy professor Abdul Rahman Al-Mashhadani said, "The World Bank expects an increase in the internal debt of Iraq from 43 trillion dinars in 2019 to 93 trillion at the end of 2021." Dollars to 3.5 billion dollars at the end of next year. " He added to "The Independent Arabia", "The Minister of Finance is trying to pressure Parliament to authorize him to obtain open borrowing without submitting a reform plan or sending a budget for the remainder of the current year."
Al-Mashhadani pointed out that "the Minister of Finance is trying to implement the World Bank's reform program, and its goal is to raise the exchange rate of the dollar against the dinar, lift subsidies on oil derivative prices, resort to domestic borrowing, and other items."

Yes Iraq: Baghdad

Parliamentary reports published today, Saturday, confirmed that taking the path of reviving government factories in Iraq will provide at least a quarter of a million job opportunities.

Representatives said in the report that "not a small percentage of government factories in Iraq are not working, some of them strategically at the level of the Middle East and they produce dozens of different materials that enter into very important industries."

The report, which was published by the official newspaper, added that "government negligence, import and the lack of visions in the framework of planning were behind the tragedy of Iraqi industry, and that the revival of government factories will push economic recovery in large areas that generate revenues for thousands of families."

The report emphasized that "the country possesses the qualifications to turn into an important industrial destination in the Middle East in light of the availability of expertise and capabilities in addition to natural resources."

He concluded by saying: "The Iraqi industry will have major positive repercussions on the economy and convert the millions of dollars that were spent on importing into the interior in developing industry and bringing important materials and products to a state of sufficiency and this is very important in strengthening the capabilities of the national economy."

For years, specialists and citizens have criticized successive governments for neglecting the industrial side in the country, as huge budgets can build many factories, revive what was left of them, and strengthen the country's infrastructure.
