Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: The television is saying the oil and gas law is still with the government technical committees and is being reviewed. FRANK: See! Where did I tell you the HCL is at? In a little box in the top shelf of Sudani’s desk…It is being reviewed? I agree, because it will require a new exchange rate. What are they going to do pay you $0.30 a month?
Militia Man Article: “Parliamentary Energy: Work is continuing towards passing the oil and gas law” This is going to be a big deal and it needs the same thing everyone else needs and that is the international acceptable currency exchange rate. The way they are talking on this gives me the impression they are ready for the rate, so that they can discus, read and vote on it. Who wouldn’t vote for it when it is for all Iraqi people. I am sure the priority is going to be toward a yes vote…A unanimous one at that!
