DeepWoodz:  Imo  Sounds definitive. I like Halbousi and he doesn’t usually mince words. Considering he chaired a meeting today concerning the budget I’d say it’s on.  And not just voted on…..PASSED. We knew that.

The Prime Minister stated that this team and its exceptional style of work constituted a state of hope and a source of pleasure for the citizen, despite the presence of some obstacles, but the outcome was positive by all standards, stressing that the financial financing of the service effort within the 2023 budget will constitute a quantum leap if Invest in the right way and with the right procedures.

DeepWoodz:  imo    Yea…thank you IMF. I’d be happy with 3:1.

Mnt Got  Yes, we are VERY close to something big happening with the dinar...Yes, I do have some concerns about not seeing any news about the project to delete the zeros... Integral to the RV is this project to delete the zeros. One can not happen without the other. Many time already, Al-Sundani has told the citizens of Iraq the dinar is stronger than the dollar. ...Yet it is still less than 1/6 of a penny. So when will they make this move and prove it to the citizens and given them a new rate?

Pimpy  Let's clear this up...an RI is a reinstatement.  People always intermingle that with the RV.  An RI would be reinstating the rate in which a currency once was.  In Kuwait...they were invaded, they dropped the value way down but after Iraq was removed...they reinstated the rate where it was before the invasion.  As far as Iraq is concerned, way different because what happened in Kuwait was a short period of time, not to mention Iraq is under restrictionsAre they going to have a reinstatement?  I don't think so.  That's my opinion.  But could it happenOf course.  Anything is possible...I think you're going to see an RV which is a re-value...
