No Census, Will Decide Date Next Week

Happenings going on and or around Iraq

The Prime Minister, Maliki, is still pretty adamant on wanting to have a formed government by mid December.

The Al-Iraqiyah List says talks are going smoothly. They have met with National Alliance, Kurdistan Alliance, and had discussions about the portfolios distribution method. A member of the Kurdistan Alliance has recently stated that some of the portfolios that have been given to certain blocs have yet to be agreed upon. Some matters are still pending.

The draft has been completed governing the laws of the National Council for Strategic Policies (NCSP). This is the position which will be an executive position for Iyad Allawi if he decides to accept the position. Allawi has not accepted the position as of yet as he seems to think that the position will be a symbolic position instead of a position with executive powers. It is yet not known whether PM Maliki will relinquish some of the PM Powers to Allawi. The Al-Iraqiyah List will be the one who is drafting the text for this new position.

The Iraqi government has postponed the 2010 Iraq National Census, a new date will be decided during next week’s parliament meeting. The hold up is whether or not to mention the ethnic status on the census application.

The Iraqi parliament resumed a session today and discussed the unemployment rate for Iraqi’s. An invite was extended to the Acting Minister of Trade, Safa-al-Din al-Safi. The parliament also discussed the social security network salaries and support contracts. The parliament made no major advances or anything very noteworthy regarding any of the topics of discussion today. Many are anticipating and hoping that more progress will be made for next week’s meetings.

I would like it to be noted that, the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) is not independent from the Iraq government nor does it have autonomy. Think about it, If it were to be independent (which it is not) then the Central Bank of Iraq would be more powerful than the Prime Minister’s office, not a chance in that happening. If you look at the Iraqi Constitution article 110, it states the Iraq federal government shall have the exclusive authorities in the following matters: such as the issuing of currency, formulating monetary policy.

The re-denomination has been postponed until next year as the CBI and the Iraq government have decided that 2010 is not the right time.

I previously mentioned over the last several months that the Development Fund of Iraq (DFI) will be extended an additional year and likewise the Chapter VII. The Iraqi government wants the DFI extended and the United Nations is in agreement. This will be the last time it will be extended. The article supporting this will be published shortly.

In Baghdad, the Iraqi government is preparing for the Arab Summit. Hotels are in the process of being built to solely accommodate the participants of the Summit.

There is still lack of basic services here in Iraq. The common Iraqi are still experiencing electrical shortages which is very frustrating for them. However, there seems to be no shortages for the Government, who by the way, live extremely well in the International Zone. Lack of food and shortages still plaque Iraq and Baghdad continues to be a very dangerous place. I don’t see that changing anywhere in the near future.

The CBI has advised some of the Iraqi Private banks to merge in order to increase their value but we have yet to see any of this as none of them have acted upon this request. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) never received the financial documents from the Ministry of Finance as requested going back to Feb, 10.

Considering all this and other matters that still plaque Iraq I am confident in reporting that there will be no RV in the month of December 2010. My analysis on the ground here in Baghdad is 100% confirmed as well as accurate.

The only problem I will mention with his (AC's) post is that it is purely based on his opinion, depsite the fact he states that "

Considering all this and other matters that still plaque Iraq I am confident in reporting that there will be no RV in the month of December 2010. My analysis on the ground here in Baghdad is 100% confirmed as well as accurate." 100% confirmed by whom ? And how ,exactly ,does he know with 100% certainty, what was disscused in the Parliamentary session ?

This one really bothers me as there is no articles stating this anywhere as yet .

"The re-denomination has been postponed until next year as the CBI and the Iraq government have decided that 2010 is not the right time. "

Maybe it's just me , but it just sounds like blah blah blah ( smoke and mirrors .) No one , and I mean , no one knows what will happen until it comes to pass.

Thanks for posting this One Voice .. It at least gives us something to talk about ....lol :lol:

I'm curious as to know, what in the world is Don't Promote Other Sites???????? I keep seeing this over and over and over and over and yet i have no clue as to what that is.

When other sites are mentioned on this site the computer automatically posts it as "" Dont promote other sites"" so that we are not promoting some one elses business. Thats all. :)

Not to worry--this is an AC post. He is 50% correct and 50% wrong. Yes it could happen in January or some time later next year but then again we think it might happen in December. We will know when it happens.

;)

Thank you for the correction. I always thought he was 50% inaccurate and 50% wrong. Glad I got that cleared up. :PB)

Where do you get off with your 50% right, 50% wrong. You haven't a clue. None of what you're talking about is correct.

The Amer. Contractor has not been half wrong. Clearly you have not bben following from the start. You're just throwing nonsence out there.

One needs to look no further than what AC said two years ago. His 100% correct sources said that IQD investment was a scam. He and his "sources" said that it was illegal for anyone outside of Iraq to own dinars. If anyone is this ignorant, he/she can't be trusted. Funny how he/she is proven wrong constantly, yet never acknowledges that he/she is wrong. He/she just moves on like nothing ever happened. Please don't respond to this post with "AC is the only one who has been right". That would be verifiable BS.

why do people here like to misquote or twist info people post is beyond me.

doesn't troyster1100 (up above) know that the Constitution is made public and anyone of us could confirm or deny that info.

in this case troyster1100 is exposed for leaving some choice words and sentences out that could confirm what the AC stated.

Wonder what the motive was troy? To discredit? Hmmmmm.
