Member of the Parliamentary Economic Committee, Mazen Al-Faily, responded, on Sunday, to the statements of Finance Minister Ali Allawi regarding that most Iraqis are saving their money in dollars.
Al-Faily said in a statement: “We are surprised by the statements of the Minister of Finance, Ali Allawi, as he states that most of the Iraqis’ savings are in dollars, so there is no need for concern, which indicates a lack of awareness and awareness of the reality of the Iraqis and their accumulated suffering. The competent government agencies announced in their official reports that the poverty rate exceeded 25% of The Iraqi people are not receiving the minimum sources of income required to provide for the necessary human needs. ”
He added, “Those who are included in the retirement, their average monthly salary does not exceed six hundred thousand dinars, as well as the majority of employees. The average of their salaries does not reach one million dinars. Are such sums sufficient when most of them do not own homes and bear the monthly rent for housing to meet their basic needs until they are said to save in dollars.”
He continued: “We believe that the government’s way of thinking that is deduced from such statements that are far from the reality of matters and are confined to theoretical frameworks separate from the reality of the painful people will lead to more confusion and ill-considered decisions, exacerbating the pain of the poor, low-income people and the majority of employees. Therefore, we demand Parliament to assume its responsibility in addressing To address this imaginative approach and prevent any attempts to harm the salaries of employees or restrict the limited income. ”
