Due To The Rise In Exchange Rates...A Parliamentary Movement To Speed Up The Approval Of The “Salary Scale”, 13 FEB

 Due To The Rise In Exchange Rates...A Parliamentary Movement To Speed Up The Approval Of The “Salary Scale”

Economy News – Baghdad  Independent MP Nazem Al-Shibli stressed today, Tuesday, the necessity of accelerating the approval of the new salary scale to address fluctuations in prices due to the continuous rise in the exchange rate of the dollar against the local currency.

Al-Shibli said in an interview followed by Al-Iqtisad News, “There is a parliamentary move to accelerate the completion and approval of the new salary scale to raise the salaries of those with lower grades, improve their living conditions, and confront fluctuations in market prices.”

He added, "The government must explain the steps it has taken regarding amending the salary scale for state employees, which will contribute to achieving social justice."

Al-Shibli pointed out that "there is a large disparity in salaries within the same category in state ministries, despite the similarity of working hours."

Most employees in state departments are still awaiting a decision from the government regarding the new salary scale, especially after many parliamentary requests to prepare the scale to achieve justice among employees in various ministries.

The Presidency's Media Department denied what was broadcast by one of the channels about President Abdel Latif Gamal Rachid submitting a request to visit America, describing the widespread information as "misleading", stressing that it has nothing to do with reality.

"RV UPDATE BY WOLVERINE & MAURICIO", 13 FEB

Mon. 12 Feb. Wolverine: We are ready to go according to all sources and Whales. This is the week we are waiting for. We should get notifications today Mon. 12 Feb. There are unconfirmed reports that President Trump signed NESARA/GESARA.

  • Some Bond holders who are whales, have been paid and they all are under NDA.
  • We heard last week that about three of these Whales started talking. Unfortunately, their accounts were frozen after 30 years of waiting. Please be careful everyone.
  • There are some bad people  sending out legit looking forms, saying they got paid, and asking you if you got paid, but if you respond to them you will be breaking your NDA contract.  If people ask you if you got paid just BLOCK them. Be careful! In my opinion, when you get your blessing, do NOT help people right away, as they will ask “Where did you get all that money?” Just be quiet, and only discuss with your family members who know about this.  Remember if people ask where you got the money, just say “Please don’t ask, just accept this gift.”  
  • Mauricio had a meeting with people who said this will be a Golden week. People ask me if this IS the week, but I cannot tell you with absolutely certainty- it is too much pressure on me. All people are messengers. Even the Admiral is a messenger. 
  • The EBS system is ready to go. Hopefully we will get that after our blessing, as the EBS does come AFTER the blessing. 
  • Also, get a trust, some say no need, it will be under the QFS, but the trust will always protect you. So as soon as you get the blessing, go a bank manager or a lawyer to get set up with a trust.

Won By A Kuwaiti Company.. An International Lawsuit Fines The Kurdistan Region Nearly 500 Million Dollars, 13 FEB

 Won By A Kuwaiti Company.. An International Lawsuit Fines The Kurdistan Region Nearly 500 Million Dollars

Arab and international  Economy News – Baghdad  The Nullification Committee of the International Arbitration Tribunal of the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes supported, by a majority, Agility’s appeal of the original arbitration decision while partially invalidating it, which confirms “Agility’s” right to file a claim again against the Iraqi government.

The disqualification panel agreed with Agility's defense that the original arbitration panel had wrongly shielded the actions of the Government of Iraq from scrutiny, and therefore did not consider whether the actions and omissions of the Government of Iraq violated the terms of protection afforded to Agility under the Kuwaiti Bilateral Investment Agreement. And Iraq.

Accordingly, and as a result of the original arbitral tribunal's failure to state the reasons on which it based its decision, it had committed a voidable error pursuant to Article 52 (1) (b), as well as Article 52 (1) (e) of the International Center for Settlement Convention. Investment disputes.

The committee stated that: “By focusing only on confiscation claims that arise solely as a result of the faithful implementation of the CMC order, the arbitral tribunal has failed to address or examine the manner in which the Government of Iraq has implemented the CMC order and, therefore, has grossly exceeded its authority.” "Superior."

The Committee commented helpfully with the following: “The Committee considers that this finding is reinforced by the fact that the failure to exercise jurisdiction to determine consistency with the provisions of the Kuwait-Iraq Bilateral Investment Agreement in relation to the expropriation claims also had multiplier effects on the other claims brought by the Company ( Agility, which ultimately led to none of them being resolved.”

As a result of this decision, Agility will now have the opportunity to re-file its claims before a newly formed arbitration panel at the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes that will determine Agility’s claims related to Iraq’s expropriation of the company’s investments, and its failure to grant Agility fair and equitable treatment. And its failure to give the company full protection and guarantee as required under the bilateral investment agreement between Kuwait and Iraq.

Following the issuance of the final annulment decision, Agility reported: “Three years ago, it was clear that the ICSID Arbitration Tribunal had failed. It has protected the actions of the Government of Iraq from any audit procedures, which clearly violates the basic guarantees against confiscation and unfair and inequitable behavior stipulated in the Bilateral Investment Agreement between Kuwait and Iraq, protection from which Agility benefited.

We are aware that less than 5 percent of arbitration awards related to the Kuwait-Iraq Bilateral Investment Agreement have been invalidated, and we are very grateful to Professor Ricardo Ramirez (Chair) and Professor Hai Tak Shin for their courage in invalidating this false patent.”
