Recap of the News tonight 
(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article from the list at the bottom - the following is just a brief Recap)

RECAP     CBI/ECONOMY
STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE

Brief recap from the articles we read and discussed tonight.....

CBI definitely has some help - people riding in on their white horses -  The World Bank and the IMF came in and talked to Nujaifi
We discussed an article that said the Central Bank is independent and they shouldn't interfere- saying we are not interfering with it in the Parliamentary level....we are just keeping you guys out there - its nice to see
The World Bank is talking about supporting Iraq in the industrial sector We discussed about the Investment Commission calling for the changing of the laws - if you read that particular article it talks about how there is lots of red tape that's there and how they need to eliminate the red tape, simplify their laws and that's what needs to happen - These are the things we have been talking about that Parliament needs to take care of - its almost like they received a talking to and them saying okay this is where you need to be...get on track...lets make sure you are there......look at the end goal and what is there

The best article of the day was the article
"Currency and restructuring real substance to improve their scientific value"                                 "
If you ever wanted to know why they need to increase the value in their currency you need to read this article - very in depth - talks about everything we talk about and have talked about here on the call - its almost like they listen to the call -  its not that they listen to the call....Its all economic sound philosophy that you use when you do this - its not magic - they need to do these things and do them in a certain way and there is a reason why and all of these things are talked about - about the economy getting better - stock market and things that need to be done there and it has a huge effect on everything - companies are going to have more equity - people are going to have more dollars - there will be more money to go thru
they talk about Turkey having devaluation problems and how their economies really are not similar - we have talked about that too that - they are two different economies and such a different situation - you have a rebirth of an economy and not an existing economy that really is falling apart or doesn't have the infrastructure - they are building the banking infrastructure to support this - As much as we hate it not happening sooner,  the longer that it waits the better the infrastructure is going to be and the better it is going to be for Iraq in the long run and for us it will be more stable when it come out
it is not going to fluctuate - they will be able to control it at the price they want to bring it out at - and they even talk about if it just was a 1-1 and they use it as an example in this article to talk about how much more effective it would be to handle cash transactions, etc  - It was a real basis to say that they need to dedollarize and they need to bring the value up over that dollar mark because it just makes sense for them to handle transactions & dedollarize - thought it was a great article
Central Bank is moving forward - The Calvary has shown up to support Shabibi and to keep Maliki off of him from an end run - he's moving forward  - we have always seen him tend to move faster once people come in to help him and he knows he has backing....CBI has been Very very quiet..they are hunting RV's.....and they are not talking - that's good ....we want them to be improving and doing the things that they are doing

RECAP     GOVERNMENT 
STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE

Brief recap from the articles we read and discussed tonight.....

Government
The Heat is on.....The Heat is On....The heat is on....
Britain's Foreign Minister showed up to talk today to Maliki
Talabani has asked the about the issue of Hashemi to get the Americans to get more involved - they are really trying to get the Americans with the Strategic Agreement to get them out of Chapter 7
This is a huge bargaining chip in this whole thing - you know what if you want out get Maliki out of the way - that's how these bargaining chips can work in these discussions - I am not saying that is how it is going to happen but it is pressure - lots of pressure points and we have been giving you where these pressure points are coming on Maliki so that you can have an idea of what is going on with the 100's of news articles we read thru daily....to weed thru it - there is a alot going on out there

Parliament is also acting - they have run into a few road blocks but the President of the Parliament Nujaifi put together a committee on the Oil & gas Law to meet on Tuesday - he is giving them deadlines -
Also discussed about giving the Commission 48 hours to have the names of the 9  Candidates so they can vote on them on Saturday
He's not stopping...hes moving forward - he's hitting these roadblocks where as before he would stop and adjourn - not now - they have 233 showing up for Parliament now so theres alot of people with alot of interest
Maliki is supposed to be there on Saturday- will keep our eyes on the news - could be a major weekend for news into Monday
We will keep our eyes on it and we will be out with something as soon as it happens

And we discussed the article,  Baghdad and Erbil agree to pay the dues of oil companies.....All of a sudden Baghdad and Erbil agree to pay the dues to the oil companies - something we talked about the other night..asking how are they doing this?  How can they not pay the companies?  Well they are starting to pay them this is a huge concession - I don't know what happened to make this happen but this is a major bargaining chip which means something is in the works - they are getting something in order to do this or they were told to do this and they will get something down the road from some diplomat - these are all major things that signal to me that the government is having lots of negotiations  and things are happening behind the scenes - we won't see alot of it in the news about some of these things  - we will see alot of re-hash of articles and could get very mind blowing over the next few days - you may see articles that come out that are very very negative on the CBI side because Maliki is going to punch back even harder because they have help now - and you will see some good things peer thru -  but you are probably going to see Maliki put alot of crap out into the newspapers - the other day they started blaming the newspapers for supporting Maliki too much and then all of a sudden starting to see all of these other articles come out about other things and we are starting to see the reporters are getting alot braver to get the news out there - Thats good you want the news in peoples hands not just for us but for the Iraqi people - The heat is on....The Heat is On and they are moving forward

And there you have it...

Sept 11 Tribute - "We will Never Forget"

Recap of the News tonight 
(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article from the list at the bottom - the following is just the Recap)

RECAP     CBI/ECONOMY
STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE

Brief recap from the articles we read tonight.....
Lots of pressure on the Central Bank from the government - They got help from The IMF - IMF has come in to defend them and say look this is what they are doing - the Parliament has said look we are just drying up with dollars and coins & it seems that all of ours are going to Iraq & Iran and they are not going to the citizens - World Bank said yeah we will check into that - don't worry about that - we'll make sure we facilitate the process of communication between you and the Central Bank and how it is supposed to work - we will walk you thru it - they have also increased their Stand By Agreement til Feb of next year - don't read anything into it - its just a guarantee of funds - making sure they have what they need so they don't run out of any money to do anything they need moving forward with ATM's and the banking system as they move forward - They have 65 billion reserves - they are fine - don't read too much into it.

The Central Bank has come out and said look we are not afraid of anybody - you can check our books at any time you want on the auctions - we know where they are going - we have gotten rid of all of the money changers and all of that other stuff that needs to go bye bye
and the problem is you think we have too much control at this point in time - well we need to have this control because if we are going to add value to our dinar we need to make sure they things that we can control that will devalue it don't happen - Like people in Parliament stealing money - people in Parliament taking advantage of this and the people not getting what they need...Well the CBI is up for that
Remember they need to make sure the banking system is taking care of the people and that eventually it all filters into the banking system and everything is fine - so don't worry about the Central Bank as we have said before they are moving ahead - they have their plan and they know they want to increase the value - they are moving and doing what they need to do - getting the banking system straightened up - They are on track - They know what they are doing and what direction they are going - we are not worried about the Central Bank - Getting all the support they need and that they can get the help they need from the IMF - Its all going as planned


RECAP     GOVERNMENT 
STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE


Summing up the articles we read tonight..... The pressure is building against Maliki....the things he is trying to do - his time is running out........The case is building against him worldwide - The financial world is putting pressure on these guys to move forward and get done and get him out of way...lot going on.....
Maliki made a mistake by getting Hashemi tried in absentia and then sentencing him to death - no matter who you are or where you are at people understand that this is not right no matter what the guy did - you just don't' sentence him to hang - that in turn ticked off the Turks where Hashemi is - they said they will never turn him over - you are out of your mind and now they are headed to Bagdhad to say look this ridiculous - you are out of your mind..
Maliki has stacked the Federal Courts with his people - stacked all of these positions with his people (the generals, etc) and they are starting to look at him and say look you are having an issue
Allawi decides today to come back to Parliament and all of sudden there is pressure
Maliki will be questioned on Saturday - You have Allawi, Barzani & Sadr all meeting for strategies to bring him in there - you've got alot of people getting ready to see what they are going to do on Friday
Parliament has been busy - they are going to pass major laws on Thursday hopefully if they get enough people and everything goes thru - who knows what Maliki will try to keep them from doing what they are doing - He's done it in the past - The Amnesty Law and and you are going to have alot of things go on where alot of these people who are in jail can get out.......you will have alot of Federal Court discussion...oversite roles - things he has got his fingers into and basically Parliament is going to call for him to go ahead and seat these people and do what he needs to do to clean up his act and then when he is in front of Parliament and talking about the interior - he will have a situation explaining why he is not moving this economy forward - why is he stalling in this area - another mistake he granted them the ability to come and talk to him on Saturday
So whats Maliki trying to do - Oh I am going to NY because Talabani is sick to get us out of Chapter 7 and go to NY
As we know last time he came here, he left with his head hanging low and got out - I am sure he will not be well received and there will be plenty of delegations there - I believe that Talabani will actually make this trip..I don't believe he will miss this particular trip
I am looking for alot of action over the next few days and we will see what happens as Parliament gets into session - I believe that all of this is going to force him to have to seat his government which is all positive for us

CBI is going on doing exactly what they need to do...IMF is coming in to help them out and doing what they need to do as friends of the CBI - they are moving that process right along - now it is time to correct this Maliki situation - Remember its not a good time of year to be acting up right before an election here in America where you have certain situations - politically that you don't want to get your name in the papers around this time - for the encumbent its tougher for him to say he is successful when you have all of this going on over there and make these claims that everything is good and okay and for the guy who is in office he has a very difficult time wanting this in the news around this time - you just don't want these kind of things coming up 30-60 days before an election because with Sept 11 going on it all brings the memories back and what we were there for and this has definitely got to have a good outcome and it will because the rest of the world needs it - This will end shortly and we will see some sort of power sharing but we should see Maliki greatly neutered here in a very short period of time which is positive news for us...

And there you have it...

Recap of the News tonight & analysis
(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following are just a few Highlights)

CBI/ECONOMY - Highlights & Recap
STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE

Mike does a recap before the news starts as we welcome Tim back

"The Central Bank of Iraq: money laundering comes from its dollar buying dinar, not from selling the dollar"
We have people out side the country who need this legitimately - Remember lets go thru the process that happened here
About a month ago we had a surprise happening, the Central Bank shut down the money changers out on the street - what was happening is these money changers had various connections to the various people who could supply them with these dollars...say Maliki or prominent people in the Parliament who ran these money shops because they knew they could make money and remember this is what sticks in my mind - they talk about counterfeiting and money laundering - who counterfeits money that is worthless - If you want dollars I guess you can because you are getting dollars on the back end of that - that makes a little bit more sense because you are getting the dollars but the money changers were the ones that were in the way of taking all this counterfeit and giving it back & coming back and saying look we don't want to take a loss...
well when the Central Bank cut out all the of the middle men the banks became the # 1 place for them to get money - now they are talking about Know your customer rules...we call it the banking laws here that you have to know who is getting the money - how much they are getting, etc  - they are saying it is a little bit of a headache but most of the banks are doing a good job with this and these idiots at the Finance Committee probably had their fingers in a lot of this type stuff now can no longer get their fingers into it and they are pretty ticked off at the Central Banking System because of that
Well it certainly needs to be said here is that what Saleh is saying is that all of this is in place...we now know where the money is going - I think that is scaring people because they can't get what they were getting before although there is still large sums of money going out - they are saying that all the money that is going out might not be necessarily because of corruption - you may have legitimate people who are trading dinars that may need those dollars when they are outside out of the country to do those type of things - you may have legitimate reasons why companies have come to do business there - they may need to take them out of the country and need money back from them now.....you've got a number of reasons that this could be happening and not necessarily the reason being that there is money laundering going on and the Central Bank has always had a good answer to anything that the Finance Committee has come out and said and what this tells me it that they are getting an idea of where this money goes

Now Remember they are taking in dinar and we talked about on the last call if you want to do an RV these auctions are quite large - they are taking in trillions of dinars and giving out millions of dollars - they have the ability to do that and not really lose their reserves so they are not really being hit pretty hard and as we discussed on the last call with Mark it was a great idea - if you think about it he takes in all the dinars and makes money - gives out dollars they are making money and when they RV they take back the dollars and give out the dinars - its like making money on both ends of the spectrum so they really have a good way of doing this and the Central Bank is able to take advantage of that because they control the money supply and they have large reserves- one of the things the reserves are counting on is the oil sales and they are going well at this point in time but they have been warned a couple of times from outside sources - they need to have more than just the oil sales - they need to develop their economy inside and they are working diligently to do that....we always see these articles come from Central Bank in defense of what is going on just so the people know they have control over it and they do

"Central Bank underlines its procedures on Iranian banks in Baghdad"
One of the things we can get from this article is the UN is now coming into to help them on these particular situations and giving them guidance on how to deal with this particular situation so that they dont have issues with the security Council having to put sanctions on Iraq itself - so we talk about all the help they are getting from the IMF....The World Bank..etc - everybody giving them guidance on what they really need to do and how they need to go thru all of this - I think this is important - you have people helping the Central Bank making sure they are doing what they need to do which is to keep itself out of any type of financial issues with the international community because it is very important that they walk slowly and carry a big stick here and have the backing of the international community but when you have the UN Security Council coming in and helping out and you have people telling them what is going on - look we want to walk you thru the situation - we want to make sure you are doing all of this - we know that you have to have these banks there because you were doing trades with them and all of that good stuff but we want to walk you thru this minefield that could be out there and keeping you straight and when I look at this it tells me that the Central Bank is getting help from everywhere that it needs and this is just well appreciated help from the UN to come in and say heh this is whats going on and this is whats going out there

Good stuff...not much blazing Central Bank news out there but I thought these were two really good articles that kinda gives us an idea of whats going on and how they are defending themselves and the help that they are getting

Lots of great articles we could have read tonight but they are all rehashed articles we have already discussed...Credit cards...ATM's..reserves........all the great news we have already discussed....its all Cool and It's All Good!!

"MasterCard has first swipe in Myanmar"  (Thanks Kel @ Going Global)

Great article about Myanmar who revalued several months ago and now they are just getting there banking system going at a very slow pace  - As we have discussed, Iraq already has their banking systems in place and are so far ahead of this and how far Shabibi has taking his country .....great discussion about this article and the comparison - listen to recording

Government


As the government turns.....Reforms....Parliament - people holding meetings....Talabani due back soon...Status quo - we are still about the same place as we were the last time we talked - lot of rehash of the articles we went over on Tuesdays call - we are here still talking about reforms...we still can question Maliki at any moment...Nufaifi trying to head that off trying to do some talking right now to get all of that taken care of - so lots of negotiations going on
Maliki and Nujaifi talking - they were not even talking before and all of sudden these two are talking - Certainly you see a heightened sense of urgency with Nujaifi getting in there wanting to move things - he's the guy that needs to be engaged in the process - you want to see in there to get these two sides talking and going with Talabani not in the major picture....so very good he is getting involved.....nice to see people talking - lets get all 4 of these in guys in one room - lets get them all to talk and get the differences hammered out and Get It Done........"come together in the coming days"

Preparations for a meeting to pass the oil and gas law

We talked about this the other night - rehash of whats going on - they are talking - there are meetings - you have negotiations going on from three sides - internal Parliament people who can move things along saying look we will get these things done - we will get it replaced - we will do what we need to do - we will put something new in front of you if thats what you want but it is going to be a combination of what everybody likes and its going to be signed and implemented  - it is nice to see them working on the things we know that need to be done - we know the things that need to get done are the ministers, Article 140 and oil and gas - those are the 3 things we need done in the formation of the power sharing but those are the primary things we are looking for and again it is nice to see them working on this as we discussed on the last call...which it was quicker but it is what it is.

"Al-Maliki's decision: Parliament agreed to hold meetings to resolve differences"
"Qubad Talabani becomes KRG minister for Council of Ministers' Affairs"

Listen to recording for these two articles  - great discussion about both

Recap of the News tonight & analysis

(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following are just a few Highlights)


CBI/ECONOMY - Highlights

STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE


"Kuwait confirms an acceleration in resolving many of the outstanding issues with Iraq"

"a major breakthrough seen relations between the two countries explaining that is was resolved many of the files, the most important issue of sovereignty."

Great update and as we have discussed many times we know they are done except for the announcement from United Nations.........talking and getting rid of all of the paperwork and the things they need to do...as we have said in the past, as things start to move with the government - things will happen quickly and you will see 5 or 6 things happen all at once the government is fully formed.  Remember as we have said many times, this is NOT event driven or date driven...(more on the recording)


"Central Bank announces the success of the first phase of the plan to increase the money banks"

We like to see the banking system get healthier and better and remember it was not that long ago that we read that they were  increasing the capital - wanted to increase the capital for fractional banking - that you have to put up so much money and have to have so much money in reserves in order to do this and they have achieved Phase I.....150 billion dinars....not only was this a requirement for them it was a requirement from IMF for international banking standards that they have banks that can be trusted - that they can have capital and they can stand on their own

It is extremely important that they get this done - talking about being 98% done - Phase 2 is to bring it up to 250 billion dinars is where they want to get it - this will help them compete internationally with the currency - the reason they are trying to do this is the currency is so low now.....kinda like the chicken before the egg syndrome - you want your banking system healthy - Well the banks are having a difficult time because there really is noone depositing or alot going on - you see them basically talking about increasing capital...And what are they getting ready for?  They are getting ready for Investments and getting ready for people to put money in their banks - eventually they will add value to the dinar and people will put that money in their banks and that will open up investments and people will come in and put money into Iraq to build...they are going to loan - they will do all of the things healthy banks do but they have to have these reserves in order to be there

Its pretty interesting of the process thats going on with the banks - What we are watching day by day is the banking system getting stronger and they are not getting stronger because they have worthless currency - they are getting stronger so that they can handle some sort of value to this currency - some sort of wealth that is going to be dropped into this country that they people are going to have and we are starting to see that they are getting ready to have a piece of the wealth - the oil that is out there

Now think of this ...the Central Bank is moving along like the government is set- they are taking care of everything they need to get done so that they can be ready when this government is fully formed and they can start into the phases of what they need to do - quite interesting to see all of the things taking place in the banking system and I am very excited to see them knocking off the things on the list required by the IMF....all this is going to do is enhance their ability to control their currency and the value of their currency when the time comes


Mike and Debbie discuss the companies moving into Iraq and why they are moving into Iraq......some of the articles and highlights are discussed are below.....- listen to the recording for the rest - good stuff)


Porsche announces opening an office in Erbil soon...opened an office in Erbil September 19th

Joining several international companies in the auto industry opening offices in the Kurdistan region, most notably BMW, Jaguar, Audi in addition to other companies..and now Porsche


Leather company plans to increase its marketing outlets for direct sale in Baghdad and the provinces

The General Company for Leather Industries prepared a study and plan to expand its marketing and promotion of their industry

national - they are increasing the number of centers from 35 to 90 for direct sale in Baghdad


Baghdad Burger Boom Iraq - Debbie recalls an article from last week sent to her by Scott - A wave of new American style restaurants are spreading across Baghdad - Iraqi entrepreneurs and investors from nearby countries see Iraq as an untapped market where the potential returns are high.  Managing director of just one of the companies and investors called Kurdistan Bridge that brought the restaurants to Iraq, called the restaurants a safe investment for companies like his that are getting in early.   He is already opening up several more branches.  The restaurants are a symbol of progress. 


Please note:  At the end of the news, there is a slight 5 minute time frame where Straight Talkin Mike was dropped from the call and due to the lines being full and to capacity - he had trouble getting back on when he was dropped - He does the Recap of the News AFTER the Q & A and at the end of the call for the night...


RECAP

Straight Talkin Mike


We talked about Kuwait coming in and telling everyone they have made alot of progress on these issues and really Chapter 7 has gone to the wayside - we know that UN can hold that over Iraq to keep them as a negotiating chip - it certainly doesn't have alot to do with the RV but it has a tremendous amount to add some pressure to the ongoing negotiations for reform and it looks like they are really trying to really move ahead and go forward - Remember Chapter 7 and all of this is associated with them getting their government formed and moving together so it is no deal that Maliki  is over there trying to get himself some sort of agreement to move forward - he's kinda picking off the things that he needs to get done so that they dont have to do the things inside of the government and he is trying to be the hero to the people - its really kinda of a mute point right now - things are going together - we have always said that it was really a done deal - It is really about them getting the Port up and running - I think Kuwait is getting impatient because they want to start sharing in the oil profits that is coming out of  Iraq as we see them going with their production


We talked about the CBI and the auctions - the things they are doing with those auctions - You've got the Finance Committee coming out and taking a look at them and saying there is some sort of collusion - NOT!!!

When they talk about it remember the Central Bank has the monetary policy - there out there making sure the banks have money and they can control the monetary flow and it is sort of collusionary as they go forward but that is what they are designed by

They fired all of the money changers - Shabibi is pulling alot of dinars off of the street and thru his auctions and thru his banks and putting out dollars  - there is alot of benefit and advantages to him doing these type of things for the RV purposes

So he is moving right along - They are saying they want to question him but they only have 50 votes - they need alot more than that to do that...Its pretty far off...Eventually he will go there and let them know whats going on


We talked about them ending the 1st phase of their banking system and making sure the banking system has enough assets and they certainly have enough assets...150 billion dinars - that phase is done - they want to bring them up to $250 billion dinars in the 2nd phase- this is absolutely wonderful - we talked about those phases several months ago - all has to do with the international banking and the banking system going forward - it is very very positive news!!

Its is wonderful to see CBI is again on track and moving forward - VERY GOOD


Government


We talked about Article 140 and that committees have been formed and they are getting that all together - They are excited and trying to get the implementation of this - The Commission will begin its supervisory work next week to oversee the work on the implementation of Article 140......Good news

Remember You can pass alot of things but If you don't implement them then it is just a mute point hanging out there


Lots of meetings going on inside the government - trying to get the Reforms done and Talabani back

Had couple of Congressional high level delegation show up - Mcain, Lieberman and Graham to get their whole take on whats happening...The Under Secretary of State showed up to talk and recommit our support - find out whats going on and Syria talks

As I said earlier its election season - don't read alot into it - alot of these are just political people showing up looking to see whats going on and if their is an advantage one way or the other and move it forward - They are not over there making side deals - as we have said it is not event driven - this is going to happen when it happens - it is going to happen on its own time


And there you have it...

Recap of the News tonight & analysis

(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following are just Highlights)


CBI/ECONOMY 

STRAIGHT TALKIN MIKE


"Three Official Bodies of CBI to Sell Currency for Travelling in Iraq"

They are restricting some of the money that they are getting so they know how much is out there -there are plenty of dollars out there for people to travel and do what they need to do so they know exactly what is going on and exactly where the dollars are..and then you have the auctions and they just have to follow the auctions

....there is alot of money out there and they know exactly where it is going - this should give you true confidence is what they do - they are doing a really great job of keeping track - he just needs to explain it to the people so they understand what he is doing and that they have confidence in the system and they know they can go to these places to get these dollars and that there are official places for them to go....remember we have always talked about the idea that you want everybody to come to the Banks for dollars and you want them to transact business with the banks and get them used to going to the banks for all their business so when there is more value to their currency they will use the banks and understand how it all works and they won't get ripped off


"Central: debt settlement more than / 13 / thousand commercial creditor of Iraq"

Two great things in this article....one the extinguishment of their debt - remember all of the debt that they owed because of Sadam because they want to be a sovereign country - they are issuing sovereign debt to cover these things- they have the money set aside to pay that - they are telling the world that we are no longer going to need you to guarantee our funds because we as a country Central Bank can now guarantee everything that is out there - we've done accounting of it - we are closing the file - so all the past debt we owed - we are fine - we can now move forward and noone has claims with us other than what we have settled so they are feeling very confident that noone is going to make claims on their funds and we remember back that the Americans in order for them to get thru this process - big announcement - we guaranteed their funds so noone could come in and take them - now they absolutely can do that on their own and they can take care of themselves on their own - Another step in them becoming financially independent to the rest of the world and having a very sovreign country issuing sovereign debt and not being worried about being sued by another country for debt that supposedly owed so they are clear and telling everybody that we are done...VERY EXCITING ARTICLE


Goverment - Highlights

Straight Talkin Mike


GOVERNMENT


Everybody is waiting on Talabani...read a few articles his health is not good and some say he is okay and someone may be taking over for him - the fact of the matter is we don't know - he has been gone for a long time and there is a possibility that he has some kind of long term illness and that is why they want to be quiet about it - also a possibility that he is just staying away til everything is done and they are not quite ready yet - trying to force him back in the country to show his face - certainly there were people that ran to his home in Germany as they say - his second home now - to say everything is okay and they are wishing him well - They are really trying to do the things that they can do to get things going

Eventually we will be able to see things coming together in the next week - Remember Talabani is due back next week according to the articles but also remember you will see articles questioning what is going on with him because it my opinion they want to keep things quiet until it is time for him to come back - you don't want everyone to know what the plan is
I still stick to my guns.....Talabani is important to this process and they are just trying to scare him into coming back

"Kuwaiti newspaper: Talabani's health status is not good and Barham Salih Athye to succeed him"

If you dissect this article you realize there is a political point to this article Maliki's advantage to having him in town early is to get him into a corner and get him to agree to all of the things he wants
The good thing about him being out of town is he won't be influenced by Maliki and all the things going on - Talabani is out of town - due back next week - certainly he wants to be the person who does the negotiations between the parties and probably will be just ceremonial

"Deputy for Iraq expects to resolve some of the files, including the office of the Ministry of Defense in the next meeting of the three presidencies"

You can see the depth of how things are coming together- everybody is talking -everybody knows this needs to get done
people are on the phone with Maliki talking about all of the important things that need to be done - the election commission needs to be done -the amnesty laws need to be passed - we talked about the debt being done earlier - the Parliament really needs to figure out what they are going to do about amnesty and part of it has to do with whats going on with the people Maliki put into prison and you need to have at least some idea they are going to forgive these people who were in the regime
of their past differences and know that at some point in time if they do this again and they break this law there are certain things that can happen and will happen

its pretty interesting that it is getting to be down to the end very shortly and you can see how close everything really is

Everybody is talking and trying to get things done - I am very encouraged by what I read and see - hopeful that Talabani will be back next week and they will get all of this done...

And there you have it...

Recap of the News tonight analysis
(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following is just a recap and Several Highlights)

Recap CBI/Economy
Straight Talkin Mike


CBI is not dealing with Iran as we have seen in the papers -  thats Maliki that getting in trouble for that - they have no intention of doing anything but doing regular trade for the electricity that they are allowed to under the sanctions that are there..they don't want to break any of the sanctions -
and that they have the ability now to watch the money which gives them alot of power now to really figure out where things are going and I really think we are going to see a big difference in how the CBI starts to handle themselves..they are slowly but surely gaining the power that they need to manage the economy there

They are educating the people to get them educated in depositing money in the bank using the banking system - big education process so we like to see more of that going on

Goverment - Recap & Highlights
Straight Talkin Mike

"A high-level U.S. delegation led by Obama or Biden will arrive in Baghdad at any moment"

The source said, "It is expected to visit Baghdad high-level U.S. delegation, headed by U.S. President Obama or Vice President Joseph Biden."
We have talked about the Strategic Framework Agreement....The part that says "The United States and Iraq have signed a framework agreement strategic and comes in one of its clauses, "The parties agree to continue close cooperation in the promotion and perpetuation of military and security institutions, political institutions and democracy in Iraq"
Those institutions happen to be the executive branch...the judicial branch - all the things we set up over there -  remember we set this up - we put the framework down - we know how this is supposed to go - we know who is supposed to get the power - we know how it is suposed to be divided up - in this its Mom & Dad have basically come home to beat the step child - to get this under control and we have alot of influence there now with that Strategic Framework - as we come in  you kinda get that explained to you a little bit....Well you may want to understand that this is a very important thing you need to do there is to get your government set up - get your ministers in place - you need to have all of this formed - Maliki if you really want to stay and not prosecuted for everything you have coming on here you might want to seat your government - drop your power - and we will take this up after you get everything taken care of so I think this is really pretty cool that this is taking place - very positive for us - you wait long enough someone is going to make that decision for you and basically it is very difficult and very tough to go forward and become a government if you are not going to make these decisions and the expectations are that there is a government that sits there and is very operational....one of my favorite articles of the day

"MP Keywords: future meetings of the blocs will put the final touches on the reform sheet items"

Baghdad (news) .. The leader of the State of Law Coalition MP / National Alliance / on the Keywords, that the coming days will witness the meetings of the political blocs will be developed through the final touches to the terms of a political reform paper.
Keywords said in a statement (of the Agency news) on Thursday: The previous meetings held between the political leadership resulted in a convergence of views between the blocs, noting: mostly adopts the idea of ​​reform and the initiative of the National Alliance influence the political arena.
The MP for the National: that the reform paper you need to put the final touches and this would be through official meetings to be held in the coming days, adding that the agreement on mechanisms to normalize paper items will be through the National Conference.
Included reform paper three points is inviting all political parties to review the situation in light of the political crisis experienced by the country and invited the political parties to deal with the dialogue positively and put all the files on the basis of adherence to the constitution, as well as inviting partners to discuss the important files and find solutions according ceilings time In addition to the commitment to the truce media. / end / 7.. /

Straight Talkin Mike:  People say how long will it take to get things done if and when...let me tell you they have got papers...they have talked about this.....everybody knows what they need...Barzani wants the 140 - Allawi wants his seat at the table - it gives him more power - its very simple - we know what everybody wants - its not hard - its just implementing it - its getting it to the point where everybody gets what they need - these papers all are there - all it is is cutting out the "BS" from Maliki - do what has already been agreed upon - that word 80% is very huge - 80% is about where Iraq is politically - on the Central Banking side creeping closer to that 90% because they are doing what they need to do inside the banking system - if they guys would just get their government in there and done - then everything goes and moves along and everybodys happy and you could avoid all of these other things going on - how important is all this?  You've got security that has had one of the roughest Ramadans with 400 + people killed - outside of that you have got to keep the people safe - you have to give the people some wealth - you've got to keep the unemployment down - and create entrepeneurship - its not a complicated ticket to do - its not a complicated recipe to keep things moving in the direction they need to move - but I will tell you - you can complicate it if you really want to be the person that is in charge of everything and you want to be the dictator then it is there - okay Maliki you are the dictator - here is the problem - here is the money laundering - we were all speculating on his connection to Iran and why he was going over there and we now see the connection to Iran - he really felt like that was his ticket to keep Americans out of his business but eventually that is what drives us to him - because of the things that he is doing - you can't keep this many balls juggled in the air and not have them come after you - the international community is big - you can't go picking on the Central Bank and picking on all the members of your party and not have consquences to pay - I got to tell you it is not too hard to get these things moving ....

What is the theme for today?  Status Quo?  No that is changing...the tide is turning against Maliki in a very big way and in a very international way - that's HUGE....he took so long to make his decision that it looks like those decisions are going to be made for him very shortly when you have the world community staring you down the face - The Central Bank comes out looking very good in all of this - they have transaparency - they can show where the money goes and how it flows - so if you take Maliki out of the conversation and you look at the year previous - Central Bank wanting to add value to their money at this point in time you have a very different looking situation at this point in time - you want to talk about had you done this earlier what kind of money you would have put in Iran hands  what could they have done?  He has been able to draw alot of money back out this from the govt. but clearly this embezzlement thing is clearly on the shoulders of Maliki...go figure....
Talabani will be returning but when he returns things will get done
don't be disappointed he has not shown up yet - hes coming...he will be here...he is the President - he will enact the things he needs to enact - its always been my position that he got out of the picture until these things were worked out - now that it is being worked out - he will be back to put the finishing touches on this and I gotta tell you its going to be very interesting when he does show up -with all of these high level people coming in my guess is we might see things move alot more smoothly with someone standing behind you on your shoulders saying yeah you can sign that - go right ahead - good thing to sign that..you need to give up your power....
you've got term limits they need to pass - there are a few other things that they need to do - we are keeping an eye on this part of the government right now - lots going to happen here very shortly - Parliament is going to be back in session shortly -- lots of things that need to get done very quickly - they will get them done - the crisis is in their back yard and everybody is looking at them - very much time for them to get their crap together to put it bluntly as we go forward.....but it is all good news

And there you have it...

Recap of the News tonight  

(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following is just a recap)


Recap CBI/Economy

Straight Talkin Mike


We discussed tonight about the article we read last week about the banking system being shut down for seven days while they implement this new banking system - it allows other banks to talk intermittently to them and they can talk to the other banks - they can transfer bank balances that are going on – that’s the reason why you have seen the auctions are being cut off because they are not open for sending out money - they are only open for receiving money at this particular point in time and the auctions are shut down - what this is going to lead them to is really becoming more Basel compliant so that they can understand where their customers are coming from so that they can figure out where every dollar is coming and going from

that’s the idea - all of our banks are going to this as we heard on Fox News this past weekend - everybody is fighting it because it is a lot of paperwork - alot of getting to know your customer - alot of knowing where this money is coming from when you have large balances coming in - where is it going - where it is going to end up - who is going to be on the other end of the transaction – It’s really a compliance thing that is needed to figure out where the money is going at this particular point in time and that is debatable but in Iraq it’s going to help them figure out where they are at


We talk about inflation being right around 5.7% and in this article they talked about the the re-evaluation process of their currency and they declared that they are going to do this - drop the zeroes and get it done by 2013...great article that talked 3 times about the re-evaluation of their currency in the article.


We talked about the scams going on in the streets of Iraq  just like they are going on in the dinar community.

People in Iraq getting scammed out of their money in the streets - being sold fake coins and fake currency & fake foreign currencies in order to take their dinars from them - people see that there is going to be value or they just want to take it and resell it because they have been shut down on the street - As we have seen in our community and as we have said many times you need to be very careful about sending your money to anyone or taking any different money for it until you know that something has gone on with this currency by looking at the CBI - we have talked about this over and over again - there is value to what you have in your hand - it has a value - you can take it and sell it today and that depends where you sell it to - but for the most part you can sell it for $800 -$900 per million - people know this -its valuable and  they will take it from you because they can get this for your dinar.....You are looking at the future where it is going to be worth more so some want you to think it is worth nothing at this point in time.....Your dinar has value...we are guilty sometimes of saying it is worthless but it has value at this point in time because it is worth pennies..but all of those pennies add up to being of value and there are people who are willing to take that from you for that - willing to take the money and run....as well as they are in the streets of Iraq as talk about in the article we read tonight....to save it for a rainy day or sell it and get what they can for it....Always Remember there is value to it at this point in time and in the future.


We talked about granting licenses to more foreign banks and they want these banks to be more Islamic favorable where they don't charge interest and let the people operate within the function of the Islamic banking that they have set up - that they are more aware of what they need to do and offer when people come in - they will be tied internationally when they come in and they will be able to help finance these projects and they want people to come in


We talked about people keeping their money in the bank - using their credit cards paying for a hamburger later with their credit card while they keep money in the bank - these are reserves and fractional banking and it gets things to go - there is information on our website that discusses fractional banking and it just makes the banking system stronger when you have people depositing money in there


And we discussed the record level of imports that are going on and really oil is up to where they are pumping in 2003 - they have that going - it is huge economy based on oil and the oil is growing - doing what it needs to do and doing well with it all


Nothing but positive news from CBI

Highlights from some of the News Articles Discussion and Analysis

(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following are the highlights after the articles were read)


Central Bank: no circulation of the coin is currently illegal

Translation... Our currency doesn't has any value right now  so it makes no sense to have coins but I am guessing he came out in the news because remember whats going on....One of the things we were looking for is for them to shut down the currency dealers and yes low and behold last time we were together we read an article that said they shut down the currency dealers....all 190 of them - they pulled the plug on them.......

My guess is they found out they were probably trading in just about everything including some of the old coins - we know they had coins minted but they pulled those off because it makes no sense to put out coins when you have no value to your currency..

I think this article is great for two reasons...one they talk about the coins and the coins coming out and they tell you specifically these coins can't be in because they have inflation and the translation for his inflation is they have no value in our money

so it costs more to mint those coins than the actual value of those coins because they are worth more in mineral value than they are in actual currency value...Very very cool and I think that really tells us alot about this particular process - if they choose to have coins they have to have some sort of value to those coins and more than the minted value of those coins at a bare minimum it has to be more than the cost of the coins...

if you look at where we are here and the costs to mint our coins and the reason we stopped minting coins here in the US - silver coins in the 60's got to be too expensive.....we started filling them with something different...even now it costs us more than a penny to mint a penny but we are hooked on coins here in US and we have them....they would like to get rid of the dollars because it costs more to print them as well...one of those things that when you look at coinage and specifically in Iraq they can not have coins or lower denominations out when they don't have any value to their currency and I think Saleh said pretty much point blank in this article when he talk specifically about those coins.....great article...weird timing ..guessing they must have found some coins out there when they were cleaning up these street vendors and someone must have been trading in them and they wanted to make sure they got this information out to the people....GREAT ARTICLE


CBI agrees to add the code Turkmen in the new currency

Something sounds contradictory in this article.....we said the process is going to take two-three years.....THEY ARE GOING TO USE THE NEW CURRENCY IN THE 2013 BUDGET AFTER DELETING THE THREE ZEROES OF THE CURRENT CURRENCY ......

(deleting the zeros....means deleting them from circulation for all the newbies out there)

So they want to pull the larger bills off and then they want to have some sort of adding value to the currency - that could be a revaluation of the currency - I like the way they sneak these in.....now they are getting into trouble..the Finance Committee is sitting around and talking with the Central Bank now because the Central Bank needs these financial laws passed and we are starting to see these laws being passed.....they are very blabby on this committee...they either like the Central Bank sometimes or they don't...They are being involved and we are hearing they are going to put these Kurdish things on and Kurdish language on the currency....they want to satisfy the Kurds and they want to have symbols, etc....they are debating what they want to have on the currency but I think most of this has already been decided...I think these are just meetings they are having to just keep them happy so they can feel like a part of the process...I think all of this was pre-determined and they are already on the currency because the Kurds were very much a part of what they wanted on there from the beginning....and the Central Bank Kurdistan region would have already known what their choices were for all of that...very cool to say the least

This budget coming up is going to be something they really need to have things done by....Tell tale article that something has to happen before they delete the zeroes and what that could be would tell me in my opinion is they are giving education of adding value to it.....it just makes sense they have to add value to the currency at some point in time to have the currency, the smaller denoms and with these coins

two articles very tell tale...pretty cool articles that gave us some great insight and clues to what is going on.

We look for the Steps and we feel the Central Bank is really moving along at what they are trying to do

They are getting the Finance Committee involved and moving forward..remember this is an economy based on oil so the oil has to flow for them to stabilize their economy....then they have to develop the private sector....they have to grow the infrastructure and all of those things kinda happen almost simultaneously ..some before the others...thats the process of building of this economy as it goes forward and once all of those engines are pumping and moving thats what keeps the value that they are going to add to their currency at the level that they need it and eventually they can raise it down the road as their  production and GDP grows - so very very cool stuff.


"Suhail looking with a delegation from the Central Bank and Financial Supervision ways to stabilize the Iraqi dinar"

Another article that says add value to the currency

Great discussion with Mike and Arthur about this article....listen to the recording


The central bank went to the national adoption of international support divided

WHY?  We have everybody and their brothers coming into Iraq to help them facilitate

They are talking about the banking systems...they are talking about the banking system coming on line globally to access all the global payment systems....those are all credit cards and all things that you can use all things that businesses will use...they are talking about large contracts coming in you don't do this if your currency is not going to have any value to it at some point in time in the future

theres no need for it...why would I bank over the phone if I have 5000.00...I would hoard it I would keep it and not use it with all of this technology...We have talking about because it is in the banking system already...they talk about USAID is going to tie them into the rest of the world - does the word international mean anything to anybody?

Intl banking - there are standards being set - now whats been going on the over the last month is they are talking about the Central Bank...We've been talking about International Banking - getting their systems ready - getting their banking system ready...

we have been talking about all of the things they need to do to go international

Dr Shabibi has been dealing with everybody in Europe..he has been talking about international - we see them starting to give debit and smart cards to the people...these all will tie into the systems - these are all things that they need and are all things that get into the system so they can have what they need to travel inside and outside the country - this is a tremendous step to be backed by USAID to come in because they are going to make sure that the World Bank in conjunction with this is going to  guarantee people their money and funnel money into the banking system in Iraq once deleting of the zeroes or adding value happens because you cannot get people to invest in a country that doesn't have a return on their money  You cannot just pay these people in US American dollars because they can't come over...you have to realize when they bring these people over it is going to cost them a tremendous amount of money to give them all of these dinars that are worth nothing because they have to buy things inside their economy when they are there...so at some point in time these people are going to not want to deal in dollars they are going to want to deal in the dinars... the dinar is going to be an international currency because they have an international banking system so they will do exchanges so that when they come into the country they can convert and they they can use it but there has to be value there...those contracts cannot continue to be in dollars for the specific reasons we stated earlier....As I talked about earlier, think about Haiti and the comparison..

The way this is being set up being internationally guaranteed by everybody you just get the sense that point blank they are not going to keep paper currency thats worth nothing and invest this kind of money into a banking system with electronic banking....it just doesn't make sense for them to keep that currency depressed at that particular point in time...they have to add some sort of value to it


This lets us know that they have to add value to the currency - We don't know when this going to take place..but all of the indications it gives us is they are going to keep the value at its current value ...it makes no sense.....It just doesn't make sense for them to say these things over and over again and then there will be no value

You might not like the timing and you may have to wait for them to get things done...but go and look at the Future of Iraq Projectand look at the last chapter where they tell you that they need to develop their banking system and then they need to add value to their currency.....we are seeing the development of the banking system before our eyes.. step by step..the last point is for them to add value to their currency - to get done with this and all of the articles that we have picked are all saying the same thing...


Arthur...If you ever wanted to see any article that tells us they have to add value to their currency this is it...international world currency about to happen thats really coming out and saying our currency will have to have value in order for that to happen..that is is as concrete of an article - statement of a pending RV that there is that anybody can say

Iraq themselves and real events happening within their banking system that point blank lets us know that they have to have value to their currency and that currency is pending soon because they are actually making these moves right now...timing we dont know...but we know what has to happen for any of this to make sense


Mike talks about the labor laws and the laws that need to be passed.....the 2013 budget.....investment laws being passed...trademarked guillotine process...and so much more (listen to the recording)


Government....Discussed during the Q & A portion of the call......


As we say here at The IQD Team and along with LJ's Next Step Team....We look for the Next Steps...there are a few more steps to go but the steps we have seen are absolutely to the T and almost out of the last chapter of the Future of Iraq Project as they are moving forward developing this system...GREAT STUFF


And there you have it...

Highlights from some of the News Articles Discussion and Analysis

(Listen to the recording for all of the detailed analysis of the articles discussed after each news article listed below - the following are the highlights after the articles were read)


"Bankers are preparing the country's entry of global banks a real incentive to invest"

Great article.....When you look at Iraq this is fertile ground...this is why people want to go there...brings people into the country...brings money into the economy and brings money back to the countries that invest and put people in - If I am the US and am building eventually that money moves back to the countries that invest and eventually that money comes back to the US
Love to see these articles..we've talked about the international flare and the international banking and their willingness to be inside the international banking..is truly great to see these things getting into the ground and when we talk about Shabibi wanting to be in this global banking system and being out there and having banks coming in
he has to make the environment good for these banks to come in, he has to insure that they will make money,  that they will be able to do these deals, that they will be able to guarantee the funds to the customers, and eventually he is going to have an economy that is going to have people putting money into their banks thats going to make the whole world go round....Great article

"Central Bank foreign banks are required to register the names of Iraq to open branches"

We are talking international and what the requirements are for these banks to open branches..they are inviting these foreign banks to come in and to make sure that they are there - they are going to guarantee these funds, they dont want to oversaturate the market for certain projects...they want to be sure that there is enough for all of this to go
around and to do the things they want to do inside the market.
We've talked about that we know internally they are waiting for some things to be done
We have talked about the investment Laws.....these are the laws that will make it more condusive for banks to come in - you want international banking system....you want them interntationally banking centered....you want banks all over the world to set up so down there so they can do project and bring money in from all over the place and bring it into the economy

These banks are not coming in to a country that is worn torn or that Civil war is breaking out....They are being invited into a country as they go forward..Don't let the political side drive you over into fear over all of this because they are moving along...if the CBI was worried about any
of this they would be stopped dead in their tracks....they would let it all work out and move forward...they are already moving forward - already an ends to a mean and they are inviting these countries in...they don't want to have egg on their face when they are going down the road...
One of the things Dinar Banker talked about was the smuggling of currency....we've talked about the auctions being high...Shabibi trying to get a hold on the street dealers trying to shut that down very hard 

"The Central Bank closed shop banking is approved"

I have been waiting for this news to come out for a month now....one of the things we have talked about is Shabibi needed to do was to close down these street vendors and I wondered if there was going to be a backlash when he did this and how he was going to do this ...because he wants to have people come to the bank for monetary exchanges - you want to get them used to coming to the banks...we read articles up to this point telling us they wanted to do that because his fluctuations of his currency inside the country was very much going up and down because of the smugglers....they could sell it for anything they want..He has to get rid of all of the street vendors....under the guise of smuggling he is able to go out and shut this down
We have read many articles over the last month that this is what he wanted to do.....because these street vendors have been a problem for a long time
If you want to add value to your currency,  you definetely must have these street vendors done - you want them to be very few....license maybe a few currency exchanges at the airports like we have here..
this is huge move for him to shut down the speculation in his economy when he talks about everybody coming in and pulling money out...absolutely HUGE today

"Iran Sanctions: Obama Orders New Penalties On Banks In China And Iraq

He's helping to point out the Banks that are helping doing these transactions.....I have long said there is one or two banks that were
coming in and taking a large chunk of this money out...and you see one of the Islamic Banks is targeted and being pointed out
This is going to help isolate these banks that are doing this and will help Shabibi do his job because he will be able to go in and
penalize these banks and possibly shut some of these banks down and get them out of his system..he will have more teeth to do what he needs to do from his constitution wise with these banks as they are going thru...
This is great...all of the articles we read today were about cutting down the amount of smuggling of currency and getting his economy stabilized ...why are they moving so fast to do this....he wants to stabilize his currency and add value to it and some point in the future...these are all necessary steps that need to be taken as we move forward

Showdown between two...Great article to read when you have time

GOVERNMENT

PART 2 "National Council for Strategic Policies" INCLUDING ARTICLE 65 OF THE IRAQI CONSTITUTION "FEDERATION COUNCIL".   


Don from LJ's Next Step Team - Brief Synopsis of recorded Round Table Discussion done earlier today...


There were some questions on our Board like LJ said earlier in the call after we did the Summary Round Table Call about the NCSP position that there was another entity that would be formed under the Iraqi Constitution under Article 65 called the Federation Council


Basically what we did during the Round Table today was bring you Part 2 - we discussed the differences between the two entities..

The Federation Council based on Article 65 is a legislative council consists of regions and provinces and basically what they do is
review the laws being passed Council of Representatives that were voted on and see how those laws work for those regions and
provinces.  Obviously we also reviewed the NCSP positions and that particular position that Allawi would take would be an Executive Position based on the 2010 negotiations when Maliki took office as PM..

We were going to record the CBI/Economy News for you but it was all rehashed news and news we have already talked about over and over.....Straight Talkin Mike shared his recap ….
CBI is ready…CBI is ready…CBI is ready

One important thing we are watching for is news from the Meeting for the selection of draft oil law on Sunday

Debbie shares her favorite article of the day...


All Eyes on Iraq
Fancy a spa vacation or a brisk business trip to Iraqi Kurdistan? Marketers are flocking to the mountainous terrain of Northern Iraq, to cash in on the relatively untapped market in the Arab world, even if they have to dodge danger on their way there

Iraqi Kurdistan seems far removed from those stereotypical war torn, strife ridden images conjured up in the minds of people who’ve last heard of Iraq as one of the world’s most dangerous places to visit. Even farther removed, seems the capital of the Kurdish Autonomous region – Erbil, which is being groomed as the next big business hub in the Arab world.

Deemed as the new poster boy for Iraqi business, Iraqi Kurdistan has already attracted a gamut of international marketers eager to cash in on the relatively untapped Kurkish market. Marketers from sectors such as hospitality & leisure, retail, aviation and even advertising, are flocking for a bite off this lucrative market, that houses more than 1.7 million people who are ‘open’ to new brand experiences.

After an announcement from the regional arm of global creative agency, MEMAAC Ogilvy, that it will set up shop in Kurdistan, comes news of Hilton’s second hotel being chalked in Erbil. Apart from Marriot International and Best Western’s plans to launch their hotels in the same city, there is news from UAE’s banking sector as well, with Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB) launching operations in Iraq.

Edmond Moutran, Chairman and CEO, Memac Ogilvy tells Kipp, “In Iraq, many clients have been talking to us especially on the lack of understanding, support or even, in some cases, exploitation they have been facing in that market. It became vital for us to secure our clients and brands best interest in the market and therefore decided to make the jump to serve them ourselves directly.”

Dave Horton, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, says: “Iraq is a significant new market for our brand and we are thrilled to be able to offer visitors to Erbil the consistent high brand standards that guests experience in over 80 countries worldwide. Hilton Erbil Hotel & Spa is set to be an outstanding, landmark property and we look forward to welcoming guests to one of the most beautiful and unexplored areas of the Middle East.”

Unexplored so far for a good reason, we reckon. The recent spate of internal conflict and Al Qaeda led violence in Iraq this month, has raised fresh concerns about the safety of Iraq for doing business. Despite the fact that Iraqi Kurdistan is a ‘safe zone’ and has had minimal violence in the recent past, safety remains a big question mark. Marketers, however, seem undeterred and determined to penetrate the region, given the global economic climate and slowdown in otherwise promising markets of the world; Kurdistan is a risk that brands are willing to take.

The skies are opening up too. Apart from other international airlines, Emirates Airlines and Qatar Airways recently announced that they will start servicing the country, a move which will prove to be crucial for connecting Iraq with the other bigwig markets in the Middle East and outside. Given the breathtaking landscape and historic ruins of ancient civilizations, Iraqi Kurdistan could well be on its way to the front page of every travel magazine. Even though it’s hard for most people to imagine sporting a holiday tan from Iraq, the world’s biggest hoteliers are betting big on it, with over 700 hotels coming up by 2016.

GOVERNMENT - LJ'S NEXT STEP TEAM

Friday night we received a call from a very excited LJ & Next Step Team to get on a call they were going to record about some information they had researched about the NCSP......National Council for Strategic Policies.....which is the Power Sharing Agreement often referred to on our calls....these articles are from 2011 and educational as to what is going on and as we discussed on the last call we said until this NCSP position is given, we believe this is the holdup
We are going to play that call tonight for our listeners.....  It will answer the questions WHAT DOES IT REALLY MEAN? 
As LJ stated It could mean EVERYTHING and how they believe this is the holdup.....This NCSP position when we talked the other day...we just thought it was maybe 1-2 people at best.... to find out that it is 21 members of Parliament that are a part of this was enlightening, educational and it also indicates why we are having the problems we are having because I Maliki didn't want Allawi to have it but now it is more understood as to why...
And it is here in black and white....this is what it is going to be...things have to get worked out before they give the money to everybody

We also believe that as well....we wanted to share it will all of you

Two articles were discussed (Links are below):


Iraq's Parties Argue Over National Council for Strategic Policies Once Again &

Draft of the National Council for Strategic Policies Bill


Highlights from the Draft (listen to recording for the Great Round Table Discussion..below are just several highlights): 

"Is an independent body in accordance with Article 108 of the permanent constitution on behalf of the National Council of Strategic Policy."  
 So that means that position is constitutional.....When Maliki says it is not....Anytime you hear that this is unconstitutional this clearly states the truth

"The Council will be part of the executive branch and replace the Board of the National Security Advisory Council of Ministers, in addition to its other missions."
The Council will be part of the executive branch and replace the Board of the National Security Advisory Council of Ministers, in addition to its other missions.
Secondly: The ministers, each according to its competence in the presence of necessary meetings in the fields of competence, that does not contradict with the work of the Council of Ministers, with the full commitment issued by the Council, including resolutions.


will be a Part of the executive branch of the government - this position is strong...has not been allocated yet...not yet agreed to yet in Parliament because Maliki won't let it get anywhere...I don't think alot of people knew how involved this really was...until today.

"Third: The Council has a panel of advisers in the fields of the different jurisdictions like the prime minister, in the terms of reference for political affairs, foreign and domestic policies and economic and monetary affairs and security affairs, military, energy matters - oil - gas - electricity - water, environment and food security, and any tasks or other functions."

This position clearly pretty much covers everything.....covers the whole gambit of Iraqi society within the jurisdiction of this position....Whoever controls this NCSP position is the Real Power of Iraq

"First: developing common visions and responsible in the management of files in the strategic institutions of the state supreme economic and political issues, security and services, energy and other, in harmony and integration of plans and programs according to the map of a comprehensive development with binding to the executive. "

 
Second: to set a timetable to national priorities and follow up their implementation, in the forefront of completing the requirements of removing Iraq from Chapter VII.


Does that say what I think it said?  Pretty self explanatory that this is how they were supposed to get out of Chapter 7...
Funny thing about Chapt 7 is that they are in Chapter 7 from Saddam.....This is 10 years after Saddam...you wonder why time and time again we have come up for removal of Chapter 7 and they say No and it never happened...This is making sense now why Maliki went back and forth to Kuwait trying to fulfill this position here of completing the requirements of removal being unsuccessful as of now but this position here was supposed to be setting the time table to national priorities and follow up their implementation to get this country out of Chapter 7 and this is probably a vacuum of one of the reasons is has taken so long...

"Identification of a priority list of laws and legislation by the House of Representatives to achieve the implementation of plans and strategic objectives, and evaluate the system of legislation and laws in force for the diagnosis of citizen conflict taking place in the legislation of the Iraqi state in the stages of its history and the abolition of laws and decrees and instructions issued by the former regime that are inconsistent with the public interest, in coordination with the legislative authority.

Priority list of laws and regulations and abolish laws and decrees issued by the former regime....we can see many that need to be done and we can see with this position it would be doing this.....goes back to the Regulatory Guillotine Trademark Process we have talked about on the calls
We will find that this is the Nucleus of Iraq
 
"First: to develop and propose high-level policy of the State in various fields and follow up the implementation of these policies from the relevant authorities in charge of regulating the relationship between Iraq and the international community."

As we have discussed on the call so many times the international articles
 
Second: To regulate matters of internal security and external security to ensure the stability of Iraq and the state's ability to deter or repel aggression of any kind or his time.

Third: the organization of the various economic actors in order to achieve prosperity and decent life for citizens in the areas of oil and gas, industry, agriculture, trade, monetary policy, financial policy, investment.


Dealing with the monetary policy......thats why you have Shabibi and the CBI on several occasions saying we need some type of structure and coordination with the government that we are not getting and now we can see what that missing factor is...it is the NCSP policy that would help in all of these areas on monetary and financial policy and investment.
We've been talking about the MOU and all of that happening we discussed ...this is the real thing that they need here and it is no wonder that Shabs can not pull the trigger.....Just Look at the scope of this position that there is a vacuum.
 
Fourth: Regulating private actors to ensure social cohesion (social security) in its broadest sense, which relates to services, environment, human rights, political, cultural, relief, human development.

This is the same thing we read Thursday night on The IQD Team Call -  It is the USAID Mission Statement we read.
We are spending billions of dollars to try to help these people along because this has not been implemented this position...and thats why we keep seeing them signing MOU and different avenues ...trying to do what this position is supposed to do.....they could do MOU from here to eternity but until this position gets done with the scope that we are seeing right here - this really opens up our eyes to basically the problem that we are really seeing in that entire country....they can have all the reform committees they want ....the reform best to include this

Council resolutions enacted that do not conflict with the constitutional powers of the President and the Prime Minister.


Thats big......you can veto the prime minister
If Maliki wants to point to anything in his favor it would be this Article
if he wants to cry that something that was enacted by Allawi conflicting with the consitutional powers of Talabani or him and that would be the only thing he could fight...he would point to this Artilce every time something came up


"Second: the right to cancel the House of Representatives of the National Council if necessary, in its third election."


That is the National Council Strategic Policy position....the right to cancel the House of Reps if necessary in its third election..
So they have extreme power....This is the Engine Behind what makes Iraq Go...This is why we have the banking sector, security sector,
we have a true working environment that will allow them to bring best practices, to bring solutions.....to not allow for dictatorship...When I read this I realized that the reason why we have not seen anything is that we haven't seen the National Council Strategic Policy Position
