"THE PROBLEM FOR IQD INVESTORS" & "ANALYSIS OF IRAQ NEWS" BY SANDY INGRAM, 23 FEB

  Sandy Ingram 

 The problem for Iraqi dinar investors is no US banks and few banks worldwide will allow transactions using the Iraqi dinar. 

 Bankers turn their noses up when people ask about Iraqi dinar and this is one of the reasons the investment is called shady.

ANALYSIS OF IRAQ NEWS

 Iraq's tourism could easily increase to over 10 billion US dollars a year, comparing it with Egypt's tourism. 

The problem for people in the United States is no bank in the US will do any transactions using the Iraqi dinar.  Until this changes we have to find other ways to pull our profit out of Iraq.  We can do this.  I found one way and will discuss it in a an upcoming [post]...   

 There is an organized effort in Iraq to never revalue or increase the value of the currency abasing the US dollar or to provide profits for people in the west...Between the different factions within Iraq, revaluing their currency, even when they can afford it, may not be on their agenda...

 Iraq is getting closer to a currency reset...Iraq's rail plans have investors worldwide watching carefully...The rail connection in Iraq from the Gulf to Europe will change Iraq's economy.  This same method of increasing the GDP was recently used by Mexico when they built a connecting rail system...Mexico's exchange rate increased against the US dollar and now Americans are spending more money to live in Mexico... This is one of the major paths that can lead to a higher GDP and a higher value in the currency.  The project is set to start in early 2025.

The International Monetary Fund has consistently recommended Iraq develop additional streams of income outside of the oil industry.  Iraq holds a significant amount of the world's history within its borders...What is  needed is security and safety for travelers.  Once safety issues are address and the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers are flowing again there will be substantial annual revenue to help boost Iraq's GDP. 

 "  Iraq's central bank revokes Iran's Bank Melli operating license"  This article tells us the US is serious about not allowing Iran to have access to US dollars.  It also tells us Iraq is serious about aligning with the US Treasury Department to maintain access to over one hundred billion US dollar of its money in the Federal Reserve.

 Vietnam is making major financial news.  Vietnam factory activity returns to growth status after the pandemic, tourist arrivals increased by 73.6% in January and retail sales are still growing for the 26th straight month.  The inflation rate is at a five month low of 3.7%.  Overall Vietnam has green lights on all growth patterns...Vietnam knows precisely what to do to bring the value of its currency back into the line of profit...

A Tug of War Over Autonomy: Iraq's Supreme Court Challenges Kurdish Election Law, 23 FEB

 A Tug of War Over Autonomy: Iraq's Supreme Court Challenges Kurdish Election Law

The delicate balance of power between the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and Baghdad has once again come under scrutiny. A recent ruling by Iraq's Supreme Court, calling into question the constitutionality of the KRG's election law, particularly its minority quota system, has ignited a complex debate about federalism, autonomy, and minority rights within Iraq. At the heart of this contention lies the age-old struggle for power and representation, a narrative all too familiar in the region's tumultuous history.

The Ruling and Its Ripple Effects

The Supreme Court's decision mandates the oversight of the KRG's parliamentary elections by Iraq's Independent High Electoral Commission. This move, while seemingly procedural, has far-reaching implications for the Kurdish region's autonomy and the representation of minority groups within its parliament. The Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), a dominant force in Kurdish politics, has vocally criticized the ruling. They argue it undermines the principles of federalism enshrined in the country's constitution and infringes upon Kurdistan's rights to manage its internal affairs, including elections.

This judicial intervention has not only exacerbated the longstanding tensions between the Kurdistan Region and Baghdad but has also highlighted the internal divisions within the Kurdish political landscape itself. The dominance of the KDP and its rivalry with the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) adds another layer of complexity to the situation, raising questions about the future of Kurdish autonomy and governance.

Concerns for Minority Representation

One of the most immediate concerns arising from the court's ruling is the potential impact on minority representation within the KRG's parliament. The challenged election law's minority quota was seen by many as a crucial mechanism for ensuring the voices of smaller, often marginalized groups were heard. Critics of the ruling fear that without these protections, minority communities, including Christians, may find themselves further excluded from political processes and decision-making.

The debate over the minority quota and electoral oversight speaks to broader issues of inclusion and rights within not just the Kurdish region but Iraq as a whole. As the country continues to navigate its post-conflict reconstruction, the question of how to build a political system that accommodates its diverse population remains pressing.

Between Autonomy and Unity

The tension between the desire for Kurdish autonomy and the central government's efforts to assert control is not new. Since the enshrinement of Kurdish self-rule in 2005, both sides have navigated a fragile coexistence, marked by periods of cooperation and conflict. The recent court ruling, however, threatens to tip this balance, challenging the foundations of Kurdish governance and, by extension, the region's stability.

Observers note that resolving the internal Kurdish conflicts and the broader dispute with Baghdad is crucial for maintaining the Kurdistan Region's influence and avoiding potential dissolution. The stakes are high, not just for the Kurdish region but for Iraq as a whole. At a time when the country is striving to move beyond its sectarian and ethnic divisions, decisions like those of the Supreme Court serve as a reminder of the delicate and often contentious process of building a shared future.

The evolving dynamic between the KRG and Baghdad, set against a backdrop of internal Kurdish divisions and regional influences, underscores the complex tapestry of politics in Iraq. As the country continues to grapple with these issues, the path to a more inclusive and stable political order remains fraught with challenges. Yet, it is within these very challenges that opportunities for dialogue, reconciliation, and ultimately, progress may lie.

"RV UPDATE" BY WOLVERINE, 23 FEB

Wolverine

It has been a long journey for all of us, some of us have been in this for 30 years. A person I know has been in this since the 1960s when she heard about this, more than 50 years ago. It boggles the mind how many years people have waited for this to happen.

We can’t get any info from Reno, Zurich or other platforms because everyone is under NDA and that is a good sign. No one is talking. I tried to talk to Whales and they are under NDA, and yes, they have been blessed.

I think there is not going to be an announcement, I think it is a process, I think people will just get paid, and they will sign an NDA, and then we will know about it. They will probably celebrate with their family and their platform. I do not think we will all celebrate together as we wanted to. 

I have been told by a good source that we may celebrate by tomorrow Fri. 23 Feb.

There are some things I cannot tell you. I know people are suffering, about to lose homes, living in cars, severe health issues, like me.

I want to let you know that it has started and I am just waiting for a call to release.

My personal opinion is that we will get appointments next week.

Bondholders need to get paid first and then currency holders. Historical bond holders will go last after the currency holders.

That is about it guys. It has been very stressful for me guys.  I am going to the Gold Coast. I can’t go today, due to a glitch in the system, but I will go tomorrow as I have been invited to a summit to be a guest speaker and will be back on Monday.   There is nothing more I can tell you. Take care guys, Wolverine.

Member: It's Fri-yay! Happy birthday to those celebrating and prayers for those in need!

Member: Howdy Mark, Mods and RV crew Happy Friday!!

Member: RV there yeeeet?

Member: Is this our weekend Mark?

MZ: Boy I tell you….there is a bunch of people calling for today. I still think Iraq may have a sucker rate for a short bit…and then pull the trigger…To me that makes the most sense. 

Member: If the sucker rate is 1 to 1…I am ok with it for sure. 

Member: Rumor is some boards are showing a rate of $1. 38!

MZ: I have not seen that . 

Member: MilitiaMan states that March 1st looks really good. 

MZ: Well that is just 6 days away. 

Member: Potential shutdown next week… figure that has to play in our favor

MZ: There are a lot of rumors that everything implodes next week. 

Member:   Mark, rumors are the funnest part of the anticipation. What do you got? How’s the gut?

MZ: Lets start with a review of Iraq: “ Distributed for free-Al Sudani-Tomorrow the first batch of white oil will arrive in the region”  White oil is mineral oil to help agriculture and they are distributing it for free. They are trying to develop that sector and become self sufficient. 

MZ: “Al Sudani discusses with the US ambassador the files of his upcoming visit to Washington”  We know the envoy arrived yesterday. Today could be a big day for us 

MZ: “Al Sudani : We received a official letter from America regarding the scheduling the end of the international coalition’s mission” This is being discussed right now in Iraq- and over the weekend. 

MZ: “Sudanese personalizes notes on the US sanctions: We will not abandon private sector banking”  They want free and uncontrolled banking so they can do business as a sovereign nation. 

MZ: Long Read: “ The beginning for the end of the US dollar’s global dominance” by Robert H.Wade.  Talking about how quickly this is happening and how much longer he expects it to take. And the backlash from weoponizing the US dollar. 

MZ: “US to target Russia with more sanctions”  It’s going to backfire….this is only going to hurt the US dollar and hasten the decline. 

MZ: I have some IRS news coming from a number of IRS offices and the people attached to them. They have backed off from opening up new files and going after new individuals. Maybe they are focusing on mega billionaires right now or just because it’s an election year and they will go hard after everybody once the ballots are cast. 

Member:  On the radio this morning there was a story about a house that got robbed and they stole jewelry and quadrillions in zim.

Member: We should be close now that some Whales have been rumored to be  paid

Member: 24th full moon…. New energy already here…. God won

Membere: We have a full moon this weekend, a lunar and solar eclipse all coming together… what a conjunction!

Member: Disclaimer: Duct tape does not fix stupid and does not stop big mouthed people from driving you nuts. Use only when the outcome will bring you peace…lol

Member: Everyone enjoy your Friday …….hoping for big news this weekend.

Iraq Embarks on an Economic Revival: Fostering a Thriving Private Sector and Reducing Oil Dependency, 23 FEB

Iraq Embarks on an Economic Revival: Fostering a Thriving Private Sector and Reducing Oil Dependency

On a brisk morning in Baghdad, Prime Minister Mohammad Shia Al-Sudani stood before an eager audience, outlining a bold vision for Iraq's future. Beyond the familiar landscape of oil derricks and desert sands, he painted a picture of a nation transformed by economic reform, diversified revenue streams, and a vigorous private sector. This was not just another policy speech; it was a clarion call for a new Iraq, poised on the brink of substantial change. The date was February 16, 2024, and the message was clear: Iraq is embarking on a journey toward economic revival, with ambitions to reduce its dependency on oil revenues significantly.

A Blueprint for Economic Recovery

At the heart of Al-Sudani's plan are comprehensive economic reforms aimed at reshaping Iraq's financial landscape. The scope of these reforms is vast, encompassing banking, finance, and investment sectors. A significant portion of the strategy focuses on amplifying investments in gas and optimizing water resources, crucial steps toward sustainability and self-sufficiency. However, what truly sets this roadmap apart is its firm commitment to fostering the private sector. By guaranteeing up to 85% of project finances and welcoming both international and Arab banks to set up branches, Iraq is laying the groundwork for a vibrant business ecosystem.

Empowering the Non-Oil Sector

Central to Iraq's economic transformation is the ambition to achieve a 5% growth in the non-oil sector by 2024. This goal is not merely aspirational but is underpinned by tangible policies and reforms. From agriculture to manufacturing and services, the government is rolling out incentives designed to invigorate these industries. Enhancements in infrastructure are also on the agenda, aimed at attracting further investment and solidifying the foundation for sustained growth. This concerted effort signifies a pivotal shift away from oil dependency, heralding a new era of diversified economic strength.

Charting the Course for Sustainable Development

With the designation of 2024 as the year to complete stalled projects, Iraq is not just planning for the immediate future but setting the stage for long-term prosperity. The elevation of the Private Sector Development Council to a permanent body, headed by the Prime Minister himself, underscores the government's commitment to bolstering the private sector's role in the economy. Furthermore, the Ministry of Planning's focus on implementing the national population census, completing the five-year development plan for 2024-2028, and reviving delayed projects are critical components of Iraq's Vision 2030 for Sustainable Development. This comprehensive approach, which also includes developing strategies to combat poverty, demonstrates Iraq's holistic view of progress, intertwining economic growth with social advancement.

In summary, under the leadership of Prime Minister Mohammad Shia Al-Sudani, Iraq is poised to embark on a transformative journey. With a clear focus on economic reform, reducing oil dependency, and fostering a thriving private sector, the nation is setting its sights on a future marked by diversified growth and sustainable development. As international and Arab banks begin to establish their presence, and as the government pushes forward with its ambitious plans, the seeds of change sown today promise to bear fruit in the years to come, heralding a new chapter in Iraq's storied history.
