Question: "Why haven't we had a new exchange rate?"
It's always the same answer, it's the corruption from Iran that steals from the auctions from the CBI...government through the political people that they have.
You can stop asking question about the budget. It's all there. Concerning the tripartite budget, everything...all the projects...cities, new exchange rate, lower notes, ATM machines, contracts, everything, it is all there...It is a fact...The GOI has the budget and they have the new exchange rate from the CBI.

The Iraqi citizens are being given their education, not our education. They are telling the Iraqi citizens what they need to hear at this moment in the monetary reform process...
$4.9 billion for a pipeline in the budget...Didn't you say it was 6.5 billion dinars?
'Yeah.' And you're saying it equals $4.9 billion? 'Yeah.'...
They told the world...6.5 billion IQDs is equivalent to $4.9 billion...6.5 divided by 4.9 it comes out to 1.32 or $0.76...You don't have to think anymore after this...That's billions to billions not trillions to millions. That's a rate change...You're telling the world this.
