Mahoud said, in his speech during the opening of the Iraq International Exhibition and Conference for Information and Communication Technology (ITEX), followed by “Economy News”, “We express our happiness to represent the Prime Minister in attending the conference, and we inform you of his greetings and high appreciation, as he praises this conference and blesses his efforts.”

He added that “the conference provides an opportunity for cooperation between the public and private sectors, which encourages the establishment of strategic companies that contribute to the development of a strong technological infrastructure.”

He pointed out that “the organization and activation of such conferences is an urgent necessity, as the Iraqi government, led by Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani, looks forward to the importance of this event being a suitable opportunity to discuss the exchange of experiences and ideas to achieve sustainable development and prosperity for our great people, which enhances Iraq’s place as a leading country in the field of digital innovation.”

He stressed that “digital transformation has become an inevitable necessity in recent years in the government and private sector fields, even in our daily lives.”

He added that “this conference comes at an important time, as the Iraqi government seeks to achieve a clear vision on how to use technology to improve the quality of services and promote transparency and community participation.”

He pointed out that “the current Iraqi government, since the beginning of its tasks at the end of 2022, has worked to develop the information and communication technology sector, in coordination with the relevant local and international sectors.”

He pointed out that “the Iraqi government has taken a number of important steps in the field of information and communication technology development, including:
1- Establishing laws and legislation to provide a suitable environment for investment in information and communication technology, aimed at encouraging innovation and protecting the rights of investors.

Improving infrastructure, including supporting efforts to increase Internet speed and expand networks in all regions of Iraq.

3- Achieving investment, as the Iraqi government encourages local and foreign investment in the information technology sector by providing bank incentives, including financial support for emerging projects in this field.
Partnerships with the private sector to accelerate technological development.
5- Implementing a national digitization plan to improve digital conversion in government institutions. This includes digital platforms to provide government services to citizens such as document registration, payment of taxes and complaints, in order to facilitate procedures and reduce time and effort, which facilitates the services provided to citizens and increases the efficiency of government performance.
6- Training and rehabilitation programs for youth and professionals in the fields of information technology, in addition to holding workshops and lectures to enhance digital skills.

AFTER THE RV GINGER TELEGRAM ROOM WILL CONTINUE ON FOR HELP YOU IN YOUR NEW LIFE AND JOURNEY, 23 SEPT

 💢 Q & A - GLL Connection for Future 


💢 G-Kat: Touching to hear this report. So many have worked so hard to get us to this point. Thanks, GiGi. I pray our unity will not end after the camping event.


💢 Ginger: Hey sugar, yeah we're definitely gonna stay connected after camping. Our chat groups will continue on. We're gonna need each other through the transition to come. There are lots of camper related groups which will shut down because they (owners) see that their work is done. I see it as one chapter ends - and our real work is just beginning. I expect there will be those who were just here for camper Intel and warm fuzzies. They might delete their Telegram app altogether and be done. That's ok. There are others here who are truly vested. Truly connected. And thinking of dropping off and abandoning the family here would be inconceivable. I'm one of those people. 🙂 We understand that folks will be extremely busy with their projects, as will I - but the connection will still be here when you all have moments of downtime, away from working on projects and much needed family time. 


Plus, our seasoned folks know about this already. Newer members haven't heard about this yet, very likely. But the GLL is going to have Reunions three times a year, annually (ongoing) for the purpose of collaborating and leisure travel combined. We'll connect in different parts of the world, where humanitarians of all kinds can connect and get their cups filled and then go back home and resume their important work. We will be excited to provide opportunities for learning, conference meetings and relaxing site seeing. Some trips will be just adults / long weekends. 4 day event. Others will be a week's vacation where you all can bring your own kiddos, too, we'll all just enjoy connecting as a Humanitarian family. 


I hope this news makes you smile 😁💖😁

Iraq's Central Bank: Defending the Dinar Amid Oil Price Drops WOW @DINAR...

International Monetary Fund: The World’S Central Banks Face A Difficult Budget, 23 SEPT

 Shafak News / The Managing Director Of The International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Gurgieva, Confirmed On Sunday That Central Banks Are Facing A “Difficult Budget Process” As Interest Rates Begin To Cut Interest Rates Around The World In Light Of The Ecline Inflation.

Central banks on both sides of the Atlantic cut interest rates this year, as the US Federal Reserve cut its key lending rate by half a percentage point last Wednesday in a bid to boost demand, a few months after the European Central Bank began cutting the key interest rate.

“But while central banks are cutting interest, they should be careful,” Gorgieva added at an event with ECB head Christine Lagarde in Washington.

“Central banks have a difficult task of striking a balance, central banks must ensure that inflation returns sustainably to its target and stay there, and maintain it, while avoiding the risk of excessively tightening monetary policies,” Gorgieva said.

She explained: While economic activity was weaker than we clearly wanted, but it was remarkably flexible, and while inflation was falling and interest rates fell, it seemed unlikely to fall into a recession.

The European Central Bank has cut interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point twice already this year, while the Bank of England voted Thursday to leave interest rates unchanged after just one cut, as inflation in the UK remained above the target.

“Decisive political measures have succeeded in maintaining inflation expectations,” ECB President Christine Lagarde said two days ago, adding that inflation is still on track to reach its 2 percent target in the middle of next year.

She said: “But is the mystery over? No, there’s still a lot of that around us.”

 Mnt Goat

  Ali Al-Alaq is still the acting Director of the CBI just as we were told by my CBI contact the GOI never did accept his resignation. 

The goals are still the same as they want to eliminate this Black Market corruption with the dollar and set the rate first at par with the official CBI rate.

 Then once this is in control, they intend to change the official rate and the rest is history as the saga of the currency swap out can then occur.
