Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) Member of the Parliamentary Economy & Investment Committee, MP Salman al-Musawi, called to “Activate the taxes and upgrade the agriculture and industry sectors to be exploited as additional revenues beside the oil sector revenues,” noting that “The economy of Iraq is growing increasingly but it still depends on oil sector only.”

He stressed on the need to “Launch the taxes and support the private sector as being resource for providing jobs for large category of the society which suffers significant unemployment.”
