Iraq, Saudi Arabia Conclude A Deal For A Submarine Cable Construction Project
Iraq, Saudi Arabia Conclude A Deal For A Submarine Cable Construction Project
Amr Salem June 30, 2024 Underwater internet cables. Photo: Shafaq News Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – The Iraqi Ministry of Communications signed on Thursday a contract for a submarine cable construction project with the Saudi Telecom Company (STC) to increase internet capacity in Iraq.
In a press conference after signing the deal, the Iraqi Minister of Communications, Hiyam Al-Yasiri, said that this is the third deal signed by the current Iraqi government.
The director of the media department in the Iraqi Communications Ministry, Omar Al-Amiri, explained that the project will help facilitate the movement of global communications and link the countries of Africa and Asia to Europe via Iraq.
Al-Amiri noted that such projects will have a positive economic impact on Iraq by utilizing its geographical location.
In June 2023, the Iraqi Ministry of Communications announced that it was launching internet service through space to provide the best internet service to people in Iraq.
Projects to provide internet via fiber-optic cables require a relatively long time to complete the deployment of cables in all areas because of the difficulties represented in the excavation works and the expensive costs of these projects.
In order to diversify the sources of internet service, increase competitiveness, and reduce prices, the concerned department in the Iraqi Ministry of Communications started the contractual procedures to introduce ‘internet via space’ service in Iraq for the first time.
Iraq is following in the footsteps of developed countries that employ low-orbit satellite technology to deliver internet access directly to people via a vast network of satellites operated by reputable corporations.

Economist: Direct Banking Investment Is Prohibited By Order Of The Central Bank
Economist: Direct Banking Investment Is Prohibited By Order Of The Central Bank
Economy Central Bank of Iraq Investment law 2024-06-30 02:32 Shafaq News/ Economic expert Mustafa Akram Hantoush explained on Sunday that the Central Bank of Iraq is adopting a “strict” central policy in its dealings with the banking sector, which limits the ability of banks to engage in direct investment and financing economic projects.
Hantoush told Shafaq News Agency that this policy makes it difficult for the banking system and investors to invest their capital in new projects without obtaining special approvals from the Central Bank.
Hantoush added that the current procedures followed by the Central Bank prevent banks from entering the fields of direct investment, which hinders the realization of a vital role for the banking sector in moving the wheel of the national economy. He explained that
the banking system, in light of these procedures, does not have sufficient capacity to play an effective investment role in line with normal banking rules, but rather the investment decision becomes subject to the directions and approvals of the Central Bank.
Hantoush stressed that this approach lacks the concept of "financial liberalization" for banks, which would provide the banking sector the opportunity to enter the Iraqi market directly and support investment opportunities, while adhering to banking and legal controls.
He stressed that reviewing these policies may be a necessary step to activate the role of banks in supporting economic projects and promoting investment in Iraq. https://shafaq.com/ar/اقتصـاد/خبير-اقتصادي-الاستثمار-المصرفي-المباشر-محظور-ب-مر-البنك-المركزي
