Communications: Iraqi Post has achieved great success in digital transformation of financial transactions
10/23/2024 Baghdad - WAA
The Ministry of Communications confirmed, today, Wednesday, that the Iraqi Post has achieved great success in the digital transformation of financial transactions.
The spokesman for the Ministry of Communications, Omar Abdul Razzaq Musaheb, said in a statement received by the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "The General Company for Post and Savings has achieved great success in terms of digital transformation operations for financial transactions by converting postal books that are decades old into easy-to-use electronic cards that allow citizens to view their balance and know all movements in their account through the electronic application "Ki".
He added that "the digital transformation operations achieved their desired goals of reducing corruption and manipulation of citizens' deposits, which contributed to enhancing citizens' confidence in the procedures adopted by the Post and Savings Company," noting that "they came in compliance with the paragraphs of the government program that emphasize the importance of activating digital transformation and electronic payment in financial transactions instead of cash currency trading."
Abdul Razzaq continued, "The Central Bank of Iraq is fully aware of all the financial activities of the General Postal and Savings Company through a monthly position submitted by the company, contrary to what is being promoted."
He pointed out that "the parties that are trying to downplay the importance of this achievement or seek to mislead public opinion with false information in this regard are the same bankrupt parties that do not want the wheel of reconstruction to advance in the work of the ministry's joints." LINK
