 Representatives Warn: The Scarcity Of The Dollar Causes Iraqis Working In Foreign Companies To Lose 20% Of The Value Of Their Salary, 21 nov

November 20, 2023  Baghdad/Al-Masala Al-Hadath: Representative Mustafa Sanad revealed a strange reason that exacerbated the problem of dollar scarcity in local markets, and caused a loss of 20% of the salaries of Iraqis working in foreign companies.

Sanad said that the Prime Minister’s Office gave an exception to Daewoo to receive their share of the dollar in full and through (Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank), and therefore the Central Bank, Basra Branch, was directed to distribute most of the cash dollar (cash) to this company for nearly three months.

He added that this measure caused the scarcity of dollars for the rest of the local companies and contractors and their loss of 20% of their dues because the receipt was in Iraqi dollars and at the official rate. The same applies to Iraqis working for foreign companies who were receiving their salaries in dollars and now in Iraqi dollars and at the official rate, which caused their salaries to decrease by 20%.

He pointed out that a question was directed to the Central Bank about the reasons for this unfair dealing.    https://almasalah.com/archives/73798
