rcookie says to Where’sthebeef() LAUNCH OF NEW BORDER POINTS WITH ELECTRONIC CAPTURE AND COMMUNICATION THAT IS CONNECTED TO MOXIBUSTION CARDS AND SINGLE WINDOW SYSTEM….
RickeyT says(): another theory shot down, tarriffs in force and no new rate
Yes, I see it is in the budget, but the budget hasn’t been implemented yet. I don’t even think it’s made it’s way into the gazette yet. I really want the tariffs to kick into full gear, but I don’t think they have yet.
Where’sthebeef says to rcookie(): Yes the new border points with electronic capture is HUGE, and I think it shows that tariffs a super close
Where’sthebeef says to rcookie(): I’m probably wrong, but I just don’t think the tariffs are in full force at all points in Iraq, if any other than the ports
Dr Dave says(): tick tick….like watching water come to a boil
THE KURDS LOS OF REVENUES FROM THAT BORDER POINT SHUTDOWN WERE $22 MILLION DOLLARS PER MONTH….THE KURDS AND ALL BORDER POINT PROVINCES ARE RECEIVING 50% REVENUES FOR TARIFF COLLECTION IN 2016 BUDGET…

clay01 says(): According to Poppy3 the other day, Abadi was going to address the people because they were riototing, and give some announcement, haven’t heard if he made announcement or not yet
clay01 says(): not sure
Where’sthebeef says to rcookie(): I have not seen any articles about the costs of their goods, like bread etc etc, going up since January. Yes, I would be rioting as well, if my gov was treating me the way their gov is treating them. I would assume if the taxes and tariffs started January 1st, then the goods have increased since that time. That is what I have not seen yet
~~~
Dr Dave says(): didnt the IMF WB stipulate something about decentralizatin of the GOI and transfer of powers to the provinces?
clay01 says(): not sure, just read a comment from Poppy, haven’t seen it anywhere else
joyojoy says(): +.3.3
Where’sthebeef says to clay01(): oh, ok

REPORTS OF DOUBLING WITH ELECTRONIC COLLECTION FROM 16% TO 32%….HOPE THERE IS SOME ANNOUNCEMENT….HOPE GAZZETTE PUBLISHES….UNCLE…
clay01 says to LLN65(): I agree, timing is the thing here
clay01 says to rcookie(): trying to understand last comment, T&T not implemented? I thought they were
clay01 says to rcookie(): Has there been ink on implementation of T&T or not, I havn’t seen any, but I miss a lot of the news, so much to keep up with these days
wmawhite says to rcookie(): I agree….everything the IMF has told us is just made up……..they really do not mean any of it. I will start listening more to Frank and walk on the beach in Hawaii holding hands while he tells me the meaning of life.
sheila3 says to clay01(): i think rcookie is telling us these things are done,but some say there not
I believe the tariffs are in the budget, but I also know they have NOT started yet. This isn’t bad news in my eyes. I think they are being delayed for a reason. They can’t implement the tariffs without a raise in their currency.
LLN65 says to sheila3(): yeah pretty much
woodguy says(): some people can’t see it even when it hits them right in the face lol
clay01 says to sheila3() It is hard to read sarcasm,8-)
Where’sthebeef says(): Again, it ALLLLLL sounds and looks great. They are getting it allll lined up the roll it out. I think we are soooo close, but again, tariffs have not started. I was only asking if someone had seen a date as to when they were going to get this kicked in. lol that’s all I was doing.
LLN65 says to Where’sthebeef(): I think you are being respectful no worries (y)
STARBUCK says(): GM ROOM! wmawhite, a ? please….in the light of Iraq revaluing their currency soon, why all the talk about borrowing money? Thank you
wmawhite says to STARBUCK(): 1 minute
clay01 says to wmawhite(): Thank you, not questioning, just asking if there was ink on it, they put out article about everything else, I would think that there would be something in ink about T&T being implemented
Where’sthebeef says to wmawhite(10:53 AM): Actually this would be in the news in Iraq, They have been trying to implement them years and years. They would reprot about it. No doubt.
rcookie says to Where’sthebeef(): AND YES IT IS IN THE 2016 BUDGET AND IMF LETTER OF INTENT………
clay says to thomas1(): oops may be wrong
Where’sthebeef says to rcookie(): No doubt cookie. It is in there. I am not here to debate that. Like I said it all looks great and is ready, but the tariffs have not started yet. That’s all I am saying. Was just askig if anyone had seen a date.
wmawhite says to clay01(): The articles continue to state that they are in place.
thomas1 says(): what i do not understand is why irqa letting iran get ahead ,but once new person said irqa and iran are jion
clay says to wmawhite(): thanks for your interpretation
wmawhite says to STARBUCK(): A change in the value of the IQD will affect what is spent outside of the country going forward. The loans are for what is needed from yesterday…..the past………that need to be filled today.
rcookie says(): a) the execution of the Iraqi budget, comprising the incremental revenue from the impact of revenue (tax) measures stipulated in the 2015 Budget Law (sales taxes on mobile phone cards, internet usage, car sales, and on tobacco and alcohol, in addition to incremental receipts from the entry into force of the amended Customs Law for 2010),

rcookie says(): THIS IS DIRECTLY FROM 2016 BUDGET…
GIBB says(): US to pay Iran $1.7bn in debt, interest. http://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2016/01…US-debt-JCPOA/

clay says to rcookie(): and thats alot of $

CanuckLady says to rcookie(): Good morning what are your thoughts on Iran “geting ahead” of Iraq
CanTWaitwoRV says(): that cbi announcement today might be a whopper with cheese also
clay says to CanTWaitwoRV(): whats that
CanTWaitwoRV says to clay(): To / all licensed banks and licensed money transfer all companies and financial investment companies and broker the buying and selling of foreign currencies approved all companies (foreignexchange rate)
01/17/2016

1 Bahraini Dinar $2.65
1 Israeli Shekel = $0.26
1 United Arab Emirates Dirham = $0.27
1 Omani Riyal = $2.59
1 Kuwaiti Dinar = $3.31
msdiva says(): Iraq is doing a lot of behind close doors something is keeping the citizens happy
Horsegal says(): Are we expecting a CBI announcement today?
CanTWaitwoRV says to Horsegal(): I posted the only one I’ve seen so far right above
msdiva says to wmawhite(): hopefully Iraq will be in the lineup soon
Horsegal says(): Hi Clay! You too! I can’t get on chat with my iphone anymore 🙁
msdiva says to wmawhite(): thanks for posting it
Horsegal says(): Apparently there is a way, but I don’t know how
wmawhite says to msdiva(): I do not understand what Iran has to do with what the IMF is already working with Iraq about. The IMF puts out a detailed document about where Iraq is with entering the market place and guess what………it did not said anything about Iran………..so what does the price of chickens in Iran have to do with the IQD?
CanTWaitwoRV says to msdiva(): I’m thinkin more like contained..at the same time Sistani has beeen on edge every Friday making his speeches for reform implementation
CanTWaitwoRV says to msdiva(): he’s watching Iran too and his Ayotollah buddies
Horsegal says(): Oh, got it Can’tWait thx!!
Woodywoodpecker says to Horsegal(): you cant down load puffin on your iphone?
clay says to Horsegal(): I woner y ask the mods
Horsegal says BGG said there’s a way, but didn’t know how
clay says to Horsegal you sound like me (lol)
Woodywoodpecker says puffin is how u get it on the phone and ipad
Horsegal Cool!! Downloading now, you’re awesome!!!!
Woodywoodpecker down load it its safe and free. go to app store
Horsegal Already did 🙂
Woodywoodpecker):ok now i think our code number is 3371
clay says to Woodywoodpecker thanks for helping her 🙂
Woodywoodpecker is that our right code number
wmawhite Here is another thought…just like the list I just posted, if Iran’s currency was to change in value over the next few weeks, then the diffence between the IQD and the region grows even larger. In other words, it is even more apparent as to what will happen as the IMF has told the world.
sheila3 says(): Read More :http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?28664-Sunday-January-17-2016
msdiva says to wmawhite() so in all reality you feel that we could actually see this rate change in the coming weeks days months or am i off a bit
