الاستثمار الوطني تكشف عن تقديم 12 شركة عالمية بعطاءاتها لاستثمار معسكر الرشيد


أحد النماذج التصميمية المستقبلية لمعسكر الرشيد
السومرية نيوز/ بغداد

كشفت هيئة الاستثمار الوطني، الاربعاء، عن تقديم 12 شركة عالمية بعطاءاتها لاستثمار مجمع معسكر الرشيد في بغداد، وفيما اشارت الى انها تقوم بتحليل عطاءات هذه الشركات، أكدت أن الفرص الاستثمارية في المعسكر من شانها حل جزءا كبيرا من ازمة السكن في العراق.

وقال رئيس الهيئة سامي الاعرجي في حديث لـ"السومرية نيوز"، إن "إثني عشرة شركة عالمية كبيرة تقدمت لاستثمار مجمع معسكر الرشيد في بغداد ضمن الفرص الاستثمارية الخمسة التي طرحتها الهيئة في وقت سابق"، مشيرا إلى أن "الاستثمار في قطاع السكن هو الحل الافضل لحل ازمة السكن في العراق".

وأضاف الأعرجي أن "الهيئة تقوم حاليا بتحليل عطاءات هذه الشركات العالمية" ، معربا عن امله في "الانتهاء من تحليل عطاءات الشركات خلال الفترة القليلة المقبلة لتحويلها الى الامانة العامة لمجلس الوزراء ومن ثم الى مجلس الوزراء للموافقة عليها باعتبار مبالغ الفرص الاستثمارية تعد كبيرة جدا" .

وأكد رئيس هيئة الاستثمار أن "الفرص الاستثمارية في معسكر الرشيد من شانها أن تحل جزءا كبيرا من ازمة السكن في العراق" ، موضحا أن "هناك 70 الف وحدة سكنية معروضة للاستثمار في معكسر الرشيد، اضافة الى الفرص التجارية والرياضية والطبية والترفيهية".

وطرحت هيئة الاستثمار الوطني في تموز الماضي خمسة فرص استثمارية لمشروع معسكر الرشيد للاستثمار المباشر، مشيرة الى ان الفرص الاستثمارية الخمسة شملت مجمعات سكنية وتجارية وترفيهية ورياضية وطبية.

وأعلنت الامانة العامة لمجلس الوزراء في عام 2010 عن الموافقة المبدئية لاحالة مشروع بناء 65 الف وحدة سكنية في مجمع معسكر الرشيد السكني الى احدى الشركات الاماراتية بكلفة تتجاوز الـ 20 مليار دولار الا ان المفاوضات مع الشركة لم تلمس تقدما ملموسا فيها مما ادى الى الغاء هذه الشركة.

ومعسكر الرشيد يعتبر احدى المعسكرات العسكرية المهمة في مدينة بغداد في زمن صدام حسين والتي تحولت بعد عام 2003 الى اراضي فارغة بسبب اعمال السلب والنهب ، اضافة الى التجاوزات من قبل بعض المواطنين على بعض الوحدات الموجودة فيها .

وكان البرلمان العراقي أقر في شهر تشرين الأول 2006 قانون الاستثمار العراقي الذي قيل عنه في حينه إنه سيفتح الأبواب على مصراعيها أمام الاستثمار الأجنبي، بسبب تقديمه الكثير من التسهيلات للمستثمرين الأجانب، إلا أن العديد من الشركات الأجنبية ما زالت تتردد بسبب تخوفها من الواقع الأمني غير المستقر في العراق

ونتيجة تردد المستثمرين في القدوم فقد تم تعديل القانون من قبل مجلس النواب في 13 تشرين الاول من العام الماضي 2009 ، وكان أهم التعديلات التي طرأت على القانون إعطاء الحق للمستثمر العراقي والأجنبي، بتملك الأراضي والعقارات العائدة للدولة ببدل يحدد وفق نظام خاص.

يذكر أن العراق يعاني من أزمة خانقة للسكن بسبب تزايد عدد سكان العراق ومحدودية المجمعات السكنية ، إضافة إلى عدم قدرة المواطن على بناء وحدة سكنية خاصة به لغلاء غلاء الأراضي والمواد الإنشائية.

The Iraqi Ministry of Municipalities and Public Works is planning to undertake 95 municipality and service projects across the country as part of its 2013 investment plan, officials told Mawtani on Wednesday (December 12th).

"We discussed the strategic projects listed in our ministry's investment plan for next year and sent them to the Ministry of Planning for approval," said Riad al-Wazeer, director of planning and follow-up at the ministry.

These projects will target municipal and service sectors and include water, sewage and urban planning projects, with a budget of about 1.7 trillion Iraqi dinars ($1.5 billion), he said.

The ministry undertook a comprehensive scientific study so it could allocate these projects according to the state of services in each province, taking population density and the need for such projects into consideration, al-Wazeer said.

The cabinet authorised Minister of Municipalities and Public Works Adel Mhowder to invite foreign companies to compete for projects and bid for contracts, he said.

So far this year, the ministry has signed infrastructure project contracts with well-established companies from Turkey, Germany, China, India and the United Arab Emirates, al-Wazeer said, and under the new plan the ministry seeks to expand the scope of competition to create greater momentum and support national development efforts.

INFRASTRUCTURE FOCUS
Dhia al-Baghdadi, general director of municipalities at the ministry, told Mawtani the ministry "seeks through its directorates to develop municipal and urban services".

"Next year's ministerial plan focuses on infrastructure projects, particularly in the fields of drinking water and sewage so citizens have better services," he added.

The ministry plans to award projects to leading companies specialised in the municipal work sector, he said.

Ihsan al-Awadi, a member of the parliamentary committee on reconstruction and services, said the ministry's new investment plan "is an extension of this year's plan, which focused on executing large and strategic projects".

In addition to building water treatment plants and sewage networks in all provinces, the plan will tackle other service works such as cleaning, planting trees and building bridges, he said.

The ministry was allocated 1.8 trillion Iraqi dinars under the 2013 draft national budget, most of which will finance these infrastructure projects, according to al-Awadi.

"Providing drinking water for citizens, especially in districts and sub-districts that are far from urban areas, is one of the ministry's most important goals in the upcoming phase," he said.

Wow this is great, this 100% shows a positive image. And hopefully gets shoved in the faces of the Christians outside Iraq saying that there is a genocide going on.

When will we see a synagogue? I doubt any Jews will come back. The ones who used to live in Iraq are going to die soon from old age and their siblings or going to be already used to living in Israel or wherever.

[Chounz]

The synagogues and old Jewish shrines can serve as a tourist attraction if they are renovated and maintained.

Also, Iraqi Jews may not come back but they will surely come for visits along with other Israelis.... and they can go for pilgrimage to those shrines. Not in the state that they're in though.
