IntroductionI have written a book named by (economic lancets) lancet is the surgical tool that doctor uses in his operations; I depend on this figurative expression to clarify the economic situation that we live in nowadays. Even though our people enjoy in certain period in economic growth, they should not give up to this growth as a result of fast civilization development within last 50 years. This fast development prompt me to write my writings to reveal those different economic problems and find the best solutions; I am not saying that what I present here is truth with its own eyes, but I think you can consider it as brace that you depend on in prescribing some curative medicines. They said from times of old" when you know the reasons , there is no room for wonder" I try here to search for truth that most people do not admit it since it reveal there mistakes, failure, unawareness and consequently reveal their incompetence for carrying reform flag.

I hope from each honest man, university's student or any economist to read this book to compare what he deals with on studying table and the practical reality, and ask himself can I harmonize between the theoretical and practical cases? Can I overcome this matter without ignoring one of them? this book also discuss the necessity of modifying our practical and scientific programs in order to form an acquired civilized core to be the start point in creating our special civilization. Here, as western world had created its civilization depending on ours, we need now to create our civilization depending on its one.

I manifested in this book that we as all are neglectful in adopting the civilized behavior; we should cooperate to handle our economic problems since individual is considered one union in the biggest economic mass. Moreover, I testified that material is not the basis for civilized advance but science, relating this matter I mentioned examples reveal that financial aids may achieve some transitional profits while the self development for our economy can suit more our glorious freedom.This book also handles our social life's sides that most of people may consider them out of our economic discussion; however, I think that every thing in our life is connected with economy, so reforming the partials will led definitely for improving economy as a whole. The wrong understanding for economy's concept is caused from adopting not successful information means in this field, and form the wrong educational mean that handle this subject. I also focused upon the importance of supporting general culture that is considered the blocking bar against any damaging information of satellite mass media. So, this correct culture led us fast to required civilization since caring about educational curriculum need a lot of time and prevail not all society's classes although it can on long-range form the core of improving civilization standard. Here, we should not feel depression because the road of one thousand miles begins in one step; so connecting all these rings together led us to come to our targets as soon as possible.

I want at last to say that this and the previous book have been prepared without resorting to any source, so if economists consider them convenient and agreeable ones, I will be qualified for having the scientific certificate that I have, and will also prove our minds' competency for performing the process of economic reform.

Chapter oneEconomy and LifeWe have said that economy is the base of our lives because the strength of our country is based on the strength of our economy. Also we have said that economy includes education, habilitation, and labor, power of criticism, commercial exchange, and marketing. Then after that we discussed the process of reform and that by considering this reform as an economic reform , also we wanted to correct the economic conception among the people and that by saying that it is not a commercial reference but it is a labor for living which depends on creating balance in the financial behavior of the individual , and if this balance becomes a wealth then this will be a good thing , because this wealth is considered as an economic power especially when it is invested in a proper way ,and this latest activity is a source of power for saving because it encourages the process of saving which in its return helps the savior in achieving his dreams and that through what he can gain from using his savings in the process of saving , and this in its return will help the savior to get an income that makes the level of his living equals the ones who live in the civilized countries . So for this reason the first thing we must do is to analyze the elements of the economy, then we must implement the priorities of the process of reform. We can not reform the economy from one conception but all the ministries and the populist sectors must participate in its reform, for example if we want to reform the tourist situation then we must ask the ministry of transport to reduce the prices of the tickets, we must also ask the ministry of finance to reduce the percentages of the taxes which are imposed on hotels and restaurants and the workers in the tourist sector and who deal with the tourist groups. Not only that but also we must consider that the responsibility of improving the tourist situation is a collective responsible and that by making every citizen as a tourist ambassador, and the executive authority must repay every person and company for their tourist activity, and to give the biggest prize to the company or the person who enters the biggest number of the tourist groups, for example by dispensing him from tax for five years.

From here we notice that tax has a double benefit, from one side it is useful for saving the finance which is necessary for the economic reform, also it is useful from the other side if it is used as a tool to encourage the process of economy, and this is what we hope to be implemented and that by using the different methods by the executive authority in order to serve the economy.

The process of understanding the economy as a basic factor of life is connected with the educational level and with the individual income, every one explains this factor according the differ between these levels. For example man who lives a rudimental life seeks to insure his simple food which insures his existence in this life , and he does need to seek for the knowledge in order to improve the use of his mental power , and also he does not have dreams and ambitions through which he inspires to reach a certain situation or need , and un fortunately there a lot of people who have the same thinking and just as the case in some states of Africa and South America , but this differs gradually according to the gradation of the mental and the living levels . And here a scientific researcher may say: Do the nations remain the same or they develop and change from one state to another and what changes them? Do external or internal factors change them? and if our answer is just the external

4

factors, then there will not be recently civilized countries, because these countries have passed through the different stages of civilization starting with backwardness and then they ascended from the rudimental level of thinking and living to what they are now, and this means that the subjective factor is the basic factor of urbanization, and this also assures that people are the only responsible for their development. But we may believe in the existence of an external factor which helps the nation to move toward urbanization , and here we must mention the proverb " the end justifies the mean " which means that necessity pushes its owner to create and invent , and accordingly the countries which are not civilized did not subject to the same factors that the civilized countries have passed through , but they subjected to factors that did not create creativity among them , one example of this factors is nature and this is the difference that we can notice between the environment of civilized countries and the environment of the developing ones . But here we must realize that these civilized countries have faced in one stage of their developing stages a weakness in their developing growth , for example when the Arab world was representing civilization the west was living in backwardness , but it depended on the Arab world in its progress . And from here we conclude that it can not be depended on one factor but on more than one in order to push any nation toward civilization, and the diagram of civilization is not static but changeable because of the war between civilizations.

So if the people of the third world want to understand economy, then they must understand it through knowing its contents, and any economical reform can not be done only through the reform of its contents and that by following the ladder of priorities, hopping that I gave a clear idea about our understanding of economy and about the way of dealing with it.

Course and Strategy of ReformEvery member of the society called for an economical reform because of financial distress that he has suffered from. And in fact he is right about this but at the same time he is not right if his call is restricted to declare his opinion which is just connected with things he wants to get without thinking that achieving this goal is not an easy thing, but it demands him and the whole members of the society to know how to begin and to know the best way that achieves this goal. So the process of reform begins from individual and that by looking at himself and his behavior to know whether his act is with or against the interest of the economy, so if the individual began with reforming his behavior then this would help the government to do the social reform. And here we can give an example about this: we ask the government to protect the environment and at the same time we throw the garbage in the streets and wash our cars with clean water and with big quantity, also we establish factories that propagate poisonous gases. So we blame the government of not doing its duty which is connected with the environmental reform ignoring at the same time that we and the government are one, and the reform of our behavior is the best help that we can offer to the government to be able to achieve the process of reform, and how it is beautiful when the government feels that the individuals have done by their own selves deeds which were expected to be asked by it.So after we talked about the individual reform, then we must talk about the role of the authority in the economical reform and which can be summarized as following

1- The study of the different economical activities according to the following course:The arrangement of the economical activities according to principle of priorities and that after defining the standard of each activity may be adopted as a base for this arrangement , and this standard can not be defined in a random way but according to certain economical basics , for example we can adopt the percentage of the primacy materials which are used in the local industry as a standard , for example the industry of the cotton clothes comes first , and the

5

Page 6: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

industry of the clothes which are consisted of linen and cotton comes second and so on . In addition, we can adopt the quantity of the production as a standard for putting the ladder of priorities for some industries; also in another case, we can adopt the quantity of exports as a standard for the ladder of priorities. And after putting the ladder of priorities for every economical activity then we study the problems of these activities according to the ladder of their priorities, and let us take for example the Syrian exports from cotton either as a primacy material or as productions which are ready for use, are our profits from the foreign currency will be better if we export cotton as a primacy material or as commodities made of cotton? And what is the local consumption of this commodity? And what is the size of the exports for the size of the production of the primacy materials and the local consumption? and after that we compare the resulted numbers with the numbers of the same fields which are recorded in the countries which are developed industrially in order to know whether we are weak or strong at this kind of activity, and this means that we can not reform economy altogether but we must divide it in order to put a reformat plan, otherwise we will fall in an economic lost that eliminates the activities before starting the process of reforming them.The division of economy into activities and the division of each activity will harm the economical balance especially the process of export and import. And we must import the materials which are necessary for industry in a way that suits the process of production , and this matter will ease the importable waste and at the same time it will organize the industrial and the financial currency , and that by making the industrialist to finance himself by himself whether by expanding the current industry or by establishing a new one according to the positive economic efficiency , and consequently the process of rearranging the industrial research for every activity in it will help in developing the process of investment and thus will help the banks that give loans in saving their money instead of using them in handling the financial deficits of the current industries . So the successful economic efficiency is the one that includes the principle of getting back the money and its profits during a reasonable period, and whenever the period of getting back the money is shorter then the project will be more successful and also it will give the project a financial power that enables it to continue for a longer period. And here I want to stress on an important matter which is the matter of stopping the economic drain which resulted from baring the successful projects the loss of the failure ones, and whatever were the justified reasons we must study every part of every economic activity on the base of achieving profit.And here I want to encourage the study of every economic activity starting from the study of the possibility of making the tools of production and that before starting with the study of making the primacy materials, because the matter of possessing the freedom of making the tools of production represents the actual possession of their artistic development, and the mater of winning a bigger space for their success in the global markets.

Studying the Economic RealityWe want to know the reality of our economy, and does this reality insure for us a suitable level of living in such world which is controlled by matter? And here we must follow the policy of the priorities which sets part from this reality the loser and the failure projects that do not achieve profits , and of course we start handling the projects which suffer from a strong disease that may eliminates them and then with the projects which are less ill and so on . And here I want to insist on a very important thing which is the matter of establishing a center for research specialized in the economic matters, and which is valid for taking the proper decision about every project and the decision of validity must be based on studying the economic efficiency of each project and activity. And if the study was un correct then the degree of illness will be bigger and the remedy more difficult .And the remedy here will be by reviewing the economic study on the base of exchanging the tools of production , or by

6

Page 7: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

studying the possibility of exchanging the quality of the product, or by dividing the period of work into three shifts in order to ease the fixed spending , or by changing the administrative system or by rehabilitating its workers , or by shifting the factory or the activity to another place . So there are many cases and there is remedy for each case , and we can use more than one remedy for one case , and of course we can not eliminate the disease only if we recognize it in a correct way in order to prescribe the remedy which is suitable for it , and then we must observe the results which are resulted from the implementation pf this remedy , and then we must evaluate the degree of success in order to modify the remedy in quantity and quality and that in order to preserve the money which is invested in the project and in the activity

- Is reform necessary or not?Some body might say why the calling for the economic reform is, and is the economic policy not valid? the answer is: the life of man is changeable and because economy is connected with life then it is not fixed and changeable because of the big global changes which resulted from the matter that economy in every country submits to two important factors, the first is science, and the second is globalization, and both of them have their influence because of the competition which increases daily between nations where the economy of each nation seeks to control the economy of the others. Therefore, for this reason and for this changeable situation the process of the economic reform is necessary otherwise, we suffer from backwardness in the different sides of our life. On the other hand the people who do not like changing and making correction and modification are three kinds , the first one is unable to tell its opinion about reform in a scientific way and for this reason it handholds with its recent situation , the second one knows the track of reform but it is lazy and it does not want to do any effort to achieve this reform , and the third one sees that the process of reform is in contrary with its interests and for this reason it fights to keep the process of reform back ward as much as possible .

So for this we must call for doing a reformative campaign because it is considered as national duty , and we must start with first with reforming our selves because society consists of many individuals and consequently the individual reform is a reform of the society , and the cooperation between the individuals certainly will help the executive authority in accelerating the process of reform , and here I want to insist on an important matter : that the impulsion of the individual for achieving his own self will push in indirect way the executive authority to think in putting reformative plans that includes all aspects of life , while on the other hand this authority will remain lazy in the field of reform when it sees that all the processes of reform will be on its own burden . So for this reason we must always mention the process of reform in all fields such as forums and lectures, and we must prompt the committees who are responsible for this whether they are in the parliament or in the different kinds of media and that until every citizen believes in it.

What is the importance of the economic reform between other reforms?The answer here is very simple: can we reform anything without starting with the economic reform? the economic weakness is a basic source for every kinds of problems that society suffers from, and every body knows the results of unemployment, and no one can ignore the psychological disturbance that the father of every family suffers because of the weakness of his income, and also we can connect the decrease of the level of education and the weakness of the social services with the weakness of the economy. So economy is the axis of reform,

7

Page 8: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

and we must first pay attention for the economic reform in order to walk on the right track toward the other reforms.

Information and ReformIn no doubt that individual has used to do certain habits since childhood and it is difficult for him to change or substitute them , so for this reason there must be a conscious and an educated side which must always be in touch with the world cultures , and to work on modifying and developing a civilized base that enables us to establish special scientific civilization , and this is the opinion which is fought by the people who grasp their civilization and not allowing the other civilizations to mix with their civilization , and these people are called radicals .

From here we as educational individuals must convince the authority with the use of reform and that by addressing its mind and to cooperate with it to follow the track of reform, and of course this is not an easy matter but it is a duty of every educated individual and also information must hold this subject. And here I want to flatter information in my country because it broadcasted my reformative articles across different magazines and newspapers. But some body might ask me: what is the effect of this on the policy of reform which was started by the government? the answer is that the government started to think of implementing this policy but there are steps that must be done by it , and of course the glance of the government toward the reformative cases is different from the glance of the economic reformers , and a period of time must be given to the government in order to help it to create a climate which is good for doing reform , and we hope that this period will not take a long time in order not to increase the required effort to execute the reformative processes , because the economic problems will increase as long as we see them and do not dare to reform them , and consequently information must speak frankly with the economic researchers in order to know their opinions about the reality of our economy in order to study every part of it alone .The duty of information is to invite every one to think about the way of studying the economic problems in order to find the proper solutions for them, for example we can through advertisement draw a picture of certain clothes and by it another picture of a man who dreams of getting this clothes through hardworking, so this picture clarifies that nothing can be obtained easily but through hard working. Also the same information can contribute in decreasing waste and that through the double advertisement which includes the interests of the advertiser and the benefits of eliminating the waste just as the case of showing the need of man for water for living, not only that information can go further in its social services and that by showing the size of the social services which can be established from the money resulted from quitting smoking.

And here I want to say some thing very important that information can be more affected than any other way and that because of its continuous contact with people whether in their homes through television, or in the street through newspapers and magazines, or through schools and scientific institutions. So for this reason we must take care of the human system who manages the sets of information because these sets can not achieve the accuracy and the speed in their work and also they can not be creative only if they are administrated by people who are in touch with the recent informative civilization, and also we must always rehabilitate them according to the requirements that develop information. We must at the same time take care of establishing informative schools , universities , and institutions , and to provide them with civilized informative courses , and also we must keep these institutions in touch with their resemblances in the civilized countries in order to know the affected informative thoughts to work on merging them with their thoughts , and then they must work on finding the

8

Page 9: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

informative thoughts that help in achieving the national reformative request , and even if the civilized reformative thoughts become very progressive they will not be able to achieve the reformative goals that we inspire for , because the climate of our country and in which information works is completely different from the climate of the civilized countries , especially what we miss at recent time is the tools that help in succeeding the information . So information is a populist effort or it is the extraction of thoughts which are resulted from a group of creative thoughts in different fields, and in doubt that interest which results from these thoughts is for the interest of the economic reform. So the different boards who are interested in the process of reform must help each other to put the informative courses which help the economic reform.

Economy and InformationIn no doubt that a big deal of money is spent for information and also there are huge investments that sponsor information, and it is necessary to make a scientific study when we put the ladder of priorities which is mentioned before and that in order to limit how can the money which is specialized for information contribute in the economic reform and in the succeeding the developing plans, and if we do not put employ this money to contribute in this then it will be considered a waste. So if we do not serve the economy with this money then we will devastate this economy , because the information which is resulted from economy is a source of motivation to finance the social services , and whenever this source becomes stronger then it will help us to present more services which are in fact a source of strengthen and supporting the income of the individual and this is the matter which can be proved through the quantity and the quality of the services which are presented in the civilized countries , and we can say here services are the investment of the material which the government gets it from the net of the national production , and the citizen can use part of this material to serve himself in this field or that and then he gives what remains of it to0 make the government complete what he can not execute , and this means that there is a continuous neutralization between the government and the individual in doing services ,and the strength or the weakness of the services which are presented by the government depends on the quantity and the quality of these services , and this is in its turn subjects to the economic system which is implemented by the government especially if it controls the economy and the individuals and the state altogether .

So the responsible boards in information must communicate with the ones in economy , and to put an informative policy that helps it to push forward the movement of the economic reform , and here we can give a small example about this if the policy of the economic reform proved the necessity of expanding the area of the lands which are planted with the white gold , then we must insure the artistic cadre for this work and that by modifying the educational courses of agriculture and by redistributing the agricultural skilful workers whether to the planted lands or the cotton industries . And of course this complicated and difficult case demands from us to resort to the center of the scientific research which is responsible for information in order to ask it to give the priority of specializing the money for the advertisement which activates agriculture, industry, and marketing.

Education and reformThe duty of manager or anyone who is responsible for a group of people must be the honest adviser for it , and so for this reason the person who has the responsibility of taking care of the others plays a positive role in the economic reform , for example father when he rations the spending of his income then he plays a double role in the economic reform , from one

9

Page 10: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

side he makes his income as a feedback which is enough to insure the suitable level of living , and from another side he teaches his children to use what he gives them in a good way according to the ladder of priorities which are restricted whether by themselves or by their own parents .

From here we must depend on the parental economic education and that by using weekly educational forums which are done in each street where economic specialists explain the way of implementing the parental educational guidance , an we can also through the economic forums study the economic problems that very family suffers from and that because family is considered the nucleus of the society , and through these forums we can also activate the social and the educational activities and that by distributing the work between families , and also these forums help in offering new job opportunities or they can present loans through some assemblies to help some people in achieving the projects which they dream of , but the financial block stands as an obstacle against achieving these hopes and aims but if the people of the street cooperate in employing their money in this project then they will pass this obstacle . So from here we see that passing the economic difficulties can be done through the collective cooperation, and here I want to insist on an important matter which is the cooperation of the educational system to reform the next generation economically, and as we know that the practical reform starts by parents and the scientific one starts by teachers, so both of them complete the other. So if school and parents do the economic reform then this will help the government to ease its heavy burden which is represented by doing the economic reform, especially that most of individuals do not help it in this mission because of the high increase in the percentage of the inhabitants. So for this reason I repeat that we must not blame the government if it does not begin with the economic reform, but we must blame ourselves because we do not cooperate with the government in doing our jobs in a proper way.

I spoke more than one time about the importance of the economic reform but in every time I was following a special method and mentioning subjects that I never mentioned before , and that because of the special importance of the economic reform in the cultural development , and because it became the first interest for every individual in society . And when I spoke about it I mentioned a very important matter and that the individual must begin in reforming himself first and then to work on implementing the economic reform on the members of his family. And I also clarified that we must induct all the media in order to reform the economy, and reform does not mean in any way to waste the useful asset and gains but it means to rehabilitate what is existed according to the ambitious developing plans which aim to improve the level of the income of the individual, and that whether by finding additional resources which are necessary for that, or by rationing the consumption and fighting the waste.

Stopping the wasteThis phrase has a limitless meaning , and no one feels it because it becomes a habit , for example the number of cars which are used by the employees who work for the government is bigger than the missions they have to do for the interest of the work , and another example is the working of the individuals who have high certificates in jobs which do not need these certificates , another example is the preventing of putting a good labor system for the external and the internal purchases in order to make the exhibitor face less dangers as much as possible . The mention of some deeds which its aim is the waste refers to the importance of handling it, and of course we can not stop it immediately but we can put a plan through which we can gradually eliminate the waste according to the ladder of priorities and that by starting

10

Page 11: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

with the big numbers of the waste then with the smaller and then with the smallest. And here we notice an important matter that the operation of stopping the waste gradually must stop at the limit which does not affect badly on the benefit which is promised from the work on which we work to remove the gradual waste from it, and this means that price of any commodity must equal its cost in addition to the profit which enables it to achieve the element of competition, and consequently every thing stops against this concept forms waste.

The economic reform and the issue of the income of the individualMany people ignore the deep meaning of economy, but they know that it means doing the jobs of import and export by some boards, but its real meaning comprehends all the activities in the life of every person in this country. In my opinion economy is the sum which is resulted from the activities of the members of the society in all different fields, and it is the artery and the sensitive nerve for the different aspects of the social life and the strength of any country is connected with the strength of its economy. There are many factors which affect badly on the strength of economy and the most important one is the weakness of the income of the individual, and its inability to insure the lowest level of the required living, so the effects of this factor seem clear as a negative element in the face of any activity in society such as education, production, trade etc. In my opinion in any level we must first study this factor, and also the beginning of any reformative job without handling this factor will absolutely fail, and it not true to say that we can begin reform without studying and handling this factor, and the question that we must ask: why do they underestimate this factor? Is not it the reason which motivates them to begin the economic reform?

There is agreement between the persons who know the meaning of economy and its cases about the accuracy of what we have said about this factor , even this agreement has become an economic intuition which does not need any proof , and for this reason we must find the factors which help in raising the levels of the incomes of the individuals and that to prove that we have started our first step in the right track of the economic reform , because if the worker does not feel of improving the level of his living then he will not do his job in a good way and consequently he will not obey the rules and the ways which will be decided for the economic reform . And for this reason we must analyze the problem of the income in a very good way in order to be able to avoid these problems, and if we succeeded in doing this then this means that we eliminated the basic disease in our economy, and also this means that we the executive and the legislative authorities who were qualified to do this mission have proved for our citizens that we were competent for doing our duties and responsibilities toward them and our country. The comprehensive and the sudden reform is absolutely an impossible matter , and for this reason the remedy must be done on the base of giving sequent doses for economy as a whole , and for individual and the results of these doses will reflect positively on his personal conditions . And by this reform will be comprehensive and public from one side , and private connected with individual from the other side , and of course we must achieve the public reform in order to be able to achieve the individual reform .

Economic Reform before AutomationMy question: is it possible to use the system of automation before starting the economic or the administrative reform? and I resemble this case to a family who wants to bring new furniture and its house needs reparation , so is it better to bring this furniture before repairing this house of course not because this will damage the quality and the beauty of this furniture . So for this reason this family must first repair this house whether by dividing it in a good way

11

Page 12: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

or by fixing some old assets which can adapt with new situation, and then it starts in selling the old assets which are not needed in its renewal operations in order to use their values in buying a part of new furniture, and after that this family puts the ladder of priorities for buying new furniture and equipments according to the principle of need.

From the previous administrative issue we conclude that the process of reform must precede the process of supplying the establishments with the system of automation which is based on using computer with the suitable programs , because the system of automation must be put according to the new needs and wishes of man .And the system of automation can not present to you what you want to fix , but it facilitates your new administrative job and it helps you also to know how to prepare the new form of reform , and this means that the process of automation must walk in parallel with the economic reform or there will not be promised results from using the automation on an economic situation which its reform was not actually started .

And because the process of reform is complicated we must ask many questions: from where do we start and how? Can we change reality and what are the standards that must be followed in achieving this changing? how can we connect reality with future , and what is the situation that will be created in order to adapt with the new global situation and which we will expose to whether we want that or not ? And this situation will force us to do the processes of the economic reforms in order to avoid its wickedness, and the best way in my opinion to do this is to renew our administrative social and occupational reality before using the system of automation, so why do not we start with the economic reform?

And I can show you in the following example the processes of reform which must be followed before implementing the system of automation : the ministry of interior has asked the citizens to change their identity cards with others according to a new adopted pattern although the time of issuing the recent one is not long , but the subject is not connected with the costs paid for the recent ones but it is connected with the harmful view which the citizen sees when he enters the building which is prepared for taking his identity card by doing the process of fingerprinting his ten fingers , and my tongue might fail in describing its cleanness and the arrangement of its furniture and the situation of the workers in it , and there I said : am I living in the twentieth century the century of informatics , because there is no correspondence between what t see and using the system of informatics , and we have to look at our recent situation in order to compare it with the situation of the others before its use the system of automation in its administration and in its public and private establishments , and un fortunately we are still late in our administrative job if we compare it with the situation of the civilized countries before their depending on computers to improve their administrative jobs , in another meaning they used the computer in a good way and that after they entered the program which was suitable for it according to certain scientific basics , and for this reason I see my duty as an economist who cares about getting the ultimate benefit from using the system of informatics in rearranging our administrative house to present the following prescription :

1- Drawing schedule which includes kinds and quantity of jobs which are done by every ministry or administration.

2- canceling some jobs which can be abandoned3- merging the identical jobs4- rearranging the track of every process in order to reduce as much as possible some its

parts and that in order to achieve the process in a short time

12

5- studying the condition of the workers in order to rehabilitate some workers and to exchange the workers who can not elaborate their works and who can not be rehabilitated with other ones

6- dismiss the workers and the assts that are not necessary7- subject the workers who work in the institution to the system of the financial prizes8- observe the results which are resulted from using this perception9- after finishing from the previous steps we use computers and connect them with each

other by a net

And we ca n use this perception in handling other service establishments. But for the economic establishments the basic standard of their success is:

1- Achieving profits in their annual budgets.2- The ability of producing a competitive commodity on the global level.3- The quantity and the quality of the foreign currency which is entered to the country

through them.

And of course the first standard helps us in adopting the ladder of priorities to start in studying the situation of each establishment.The principle of choosing the first commercial or industrial project in order to handle its problems is the quantity of loss in its annual budget comparing to the loss which is achieved by the other projects , so we the project whose loss is the biggest

1- Implementing the perception which is mentioned above and which is connected with persons.

2- Studying the situation of the internal competition.3- Studying the situation of the external competition.4- if the previous methods did not succeed then we must follow the following resolutions

:a- merging the establishment with another oneb- Announcing about a body that can undertake the administration of this project

regarding to its workers and rearranging the administrative organization.

And if these cases are impossible to be implemented, then we it is better to liquidate this institution.

In my opinion the beginning with reforming the commercial and the industrial establishments first and then the use of the system of automation to fix the results of the process of the administrative are far better the\an the use of computer on the land that we do not know its characteristics.

After we talked about resolving the problems of the industrial establishments and projects we must restudy the developing plans and see what they include from futuristic projects. And in our study we must remember the following issues:

1- The concentration on the projects which use the local primacy materials in a big deal.2- Connecting the educational policy with the developing plans and with talents and

wishes.3- Putting a gradual policy to decrease all kinds of taxes and that to encourage the

averages of consumption and investment.

13

Page 14: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

4- connecting the decrease of the averages of the interests of the deposits with finding invest able projects whose annual profits are not less than ten percent and that to encourage the depositors of not depending on the interests of the banks for their living.

5- connecting the averages of salaries with effort6- Restudying the reality of the economic organizations in order to be able to do their

economic reformative national duty.7- restudying the courses and the style of teaching which is adopted in all the

occupational schools and institutions in order to get a rehabilitated generation capable of practicing the process of reform

8- resolving the problem of the excessive number of the workers by the economic reform according to the following course :

a- Get them back to their work.b- Making the process of rehabilitation which is suitable for doing their jobs.c- finding special jobs for them if they do not have any jobsd- Rehabilitating them for new projects.e- If they fail in implementing one of the previous stages then they must retire.

After this big studying of our economic reality in its different factors, we can put testable computer programs that guarantee their relation' organizing. I discuss in this small research the simple curative means for reform process before starting the automation system.

Activating the human workWork, in my opinion, is every move man can perform, it is on sorts starting from the obligatory one that keeping man alive and fallowed by completing ones that are differ according to each person's character, and it is affected by many factors such as these different factors.

The Forceable MovementsThe force able movements are built on birth and they may be called reflexive movements , for example we notice that child dines economically in the womb of his mother and he does the same thing when his mother puts him on her breasts , another example is that he drinks when he feels thirsty and he closes and opens his eyes according to the strength of the light around him , and God has made these movements because of their importance in keeping the continuity of life on earth , also He made them as apart of the movements of nature such as the movements of wind , sun and moon etc , and man adapted with them from the beginning of creation and that when nature saved plants for him in order to insure his food . The importance of this appears clearly when man finds that the only shelter that can help to get rid off the burdens of life is nature which was damaged by him , and now he comes back to apologize for her and that by handling environment . But, does it accept and forgive this apology, or it will force him to condescend many of the cultural gains in order to decrease the harmful effects of culture?

The civilized labor which is demanded by man to do in order to be civilized person is the labor that guaranties for us gaining experiments, science and creation, and of course these are the characteristics of the economy of the industrial countries.

Knowing the available experiments and the ones that we needIt is known that identifying the beginning of any thing helps in continuing the development and the growth of this thing, and this is a rule that any one us can make sure of its correction by observing reality, for example: knowing the mother of the nature of her son and expecting things and deeds which can be done him are bigger than any one wants to know that through sitting with her son for a certain period of time of his age.The big memory of child must be filled with things which are useful for him and his society, and also with the inborn aspects which are necessary for his life. From here we see that we will get the biggest benefit from this life if we take care of our brains especially their contents such as wishes and desires which must be discovered by society in order to be able to reach to the harmony between what is inborn and what is acquired, and by this we can estimate the amount of benefits which can be presented by experience to man.

Psychological Stateif we compare the behavior of two persons one of them chose his job because he loved it and the other one chose it just to insure his living , then we will see that the first one has a family whose its members love each other and they are successful in their study and job , and by this they are a family whose its members help each other financially and incorporeally and this is what every economist seeks to reach because family is considered the base of economy , and its success as an economic unity is a success for the whole economy . So for this reason we must not make the work of the individual as a mean for insuring living, but hobby and desire which enables him to feed his psychological requirements from material, spirit and dreams and these are factors which are necessary to achieve the mental and the physical creation, and here we remember the proverb " the healthy mind is in the healthy body ". Mind is the tool that administrates the whole organs of body, and from here we see that we must take care of body in order to allow the mind to do its job in a good way.

Caring about bodyThis can be done trough many factors: individual himself should not put himself in troubles that may cause either from natural or normal works that he usually practices. Harm in any organ of man's body is a damaging for his mind; this harm will prevent him from doing his mental or bodily work that he should do correctly. It is true that these organs d work according to mind's orders, but they can not apply this order if they have any small trouble, they even ask mind to handle this trouble to be ready for applying what they asked to do.

Mind – Organ – MindIt is a ring which is always connected through the way of transporting orders to organs to execute them, or to transport the answers. So for this reason the educational bodies must be punished for their bad treating for children and students.Here I want to ask: How much are the costs which are paid for creating a robot for the industrial use? Can this robot take the place of the natural man? What is the difference in cost between them and its connection with doing job in a good way? What are the damages that robot causes to the factor of unemployment? The most important question is: Can robot work completely without observation and maintenance by the man who crated it? From here, we notice that it is important from the economical point of view to take care of the human body,

15

Page 16: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

because the healthy body can participate in the economic development and this is the possibility which ca not be achieved by robot.The duty of the public sector in this field is to make procedures that guaranty the safety of the health of man toward the harms of environment. So for this we can not find in the civilized countries a public sector that leaves any person ill but it insures for him all kinds of medicines to handle any disease.

If we leave the medical field we must activate economy and that through decreasing crime which increases through people who do not work. In my opinion the remedy which is implemented by the civilized countries in this field and that by giving a monthly salary is not a suitable remedy, and the reason is that this person will not work even if this salary is less than the one which he will get when he works. So the problem will remain without solution if we do not treat it and that by connecting the number of workers with development and the increase of the number of inhabitants.

The Current RemedyEvery state that wants to improve its economic situation must repeat the study of its developing plans especially that the recent generations suffer from accelerated economic development that the old developing plans might disable to follow it. The best thing that government can do is to establish a system to observe the developing plans which are put for the cultural reality and through different periods of time , and it can make a traditional test on every baby who is newly born in order to uncover his wishes and aims, also it can make a comprehensive study about the wishes of individuals and that by filling files distributed through different media and then it distribute them after decreasing the consumptive quantities in it in a good way and this will help in distributing the workers in a good way .For the wishes of the children it must prepare education and rehabilitation which are suitable for them, in addition to inter their wishes and desires in the developing plans which are prepared for the giant projects and expected to be appeared through or after twenty years, and by this we seek hard to insure job opportunities for every citizen according to his competence.

Experience, goodness, and laborAfter we talked about connecting the developing plans with experiences after developing them in order to guarantee putting the right person in the right place, we must search for projects which are successful in goodness, and export. For the goodness of performance it is connected with two important respects which are the specifications of the worker and the product and which can be proved through answering the following question: did the worker occupy his job because of his education, experience, and work? And of course if it is true then it will help this worker to love his job, also this will make him have characteristics differed from the worker who struggles with his job everyday. And for the owner of job he will be the only loser when he employs a non professional worker because of his low salary.If we compare the economic results of the professional worker with the ones of the non professional worker then we will find that they are far better, and that because of the fact that the professional worker not only can present the required quality and quantity at the exact time but also he can surpass the required limit of all these three factors and that if the deal with him is based on implementing the system of bonus.

Also we notice that the professional worker can develop himself artistically and that through his reaction with machine which has become a part of his daily life becomes because the time

16

Page 17: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

he stays with it is more than the time with his family and friends. There is also another reaction between worker and production where the product becomes a part of his life just as eating food and drinking water , and for this reason we see him feels with anger when he sees that production is not done according to quality which is required by the owner of job , also competition between him and the other workers in another establishment will become stronger when he sees that they created a productive idea led to increase the quality and quantity of their production .

So we can consider that there is a subjective observation on their productive situation, and this is what helps in easing the dependence on the observation of the administrative system. In the first case we notice that there is love between worker and production while in the second one there is no love and trust between them. So for this reason implementing the system of bonus is the only way to activate the first case , also it helps from the economic side in preventing the foreign commodities from entering our country , and it also can help in exporting our commodities abroad and of course this will help in supporting our local currency with the foreign one .

If we leave the economic side to know how the power of the economy affects on the international attitudes then we see that our relations with them are connected with our economic relations with them, and of course this is considered the way which leads to settle our international relations because of the expansion in the economic interests between us and the civilized countries.

The Professional CultureMany fathers , mothers , and the ones who are responsible for science and teaching , mistook when they thought that the routine science which was adopted in Syria and which is based on getting the student the certificate of the high school in order to inter to the faculty he wants was right , and that because there was no scientific policy according to economic developing plans connect science with economy and also because of the implementing the policy of insuring jobs for the ones who have this certificate , and consequently the public establishments were full with employees and this leads to increase the averages of expenses in the budget of the state , especially when the government increased the activity of the public sector and froze the activities of the special sector .

The case of the one who asks for science is almost the same case for the worker and the relation between him and his professional culture which guarantees to employ him without knowing his professional competence or the kind of job which is suitable for him, and this of course led the professional experience to specialization and that because the job was available for the worker even if he was loser professionally and caused a productive damages. But the government began to feel this mistake and began to fix it with students and that by putting some scientific restrictions before the students whose scientific qualifications do not correspond with the requirements of the scientific rehabilitation which is necessary to get the scientific and the literary baccalaureate , and it opened the professional schools in order to encourage the professional culture in spite of it is not a remedy but it is better of nothing because it remedies from the end not from the beginning , and this is better because to uncover the experiences in early age is far better than in late age when he fails in completing the only study which is opposed on him by the executive authority .

And here I want to comment on an important matter that the professional culture might be considered very close to the public culture because both of them have an educational style

17

Page 18: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

which is useful financially and incorporeally, while the forcible education just brings to his owner a psychological disturbance especially when he sees that the cultural dimension increases between his culture and the culture of the others. And for this reason the best remedy for this professional problem in Syria is to start in the professional evaluation from childhood, and to expand the professional schools in quantity and quality, and to redistribute the workers according to the principle of desires, and to prepare the studies which are necessary to improve the condition of the public culture which its aim is to connect all these cases with the economic developing plans.

Bonus and ParticipationJobs are usually done by individual or state or different companies, and the question is here: can we use the system of bonus in all the previous boards? I say: yes, but without ignoring the element of activating the experience of every worker, because what is the benefit of giving a worker a bonus for a work he does not do, so the knowledge of his ability to do the job is important that thinking of giving him a bonus. The promised benefit from implementing the system of bonuses will turn into damage if we can not make sure of its ability in implementing the required job in a good way , and for this reason many people who have their own theories and who called for considering the system of bonuses the best remedy for the productive errors in the developing countries shocked when they saw the failure resulted from implementing their theories forgetting that experience has a big role in supporting the implement of these theories , and because of this we must make the bonus have degrees each of them suits the stage that the worker passes through it having a certain experience . So the implementing of the system of bonus will strengthen the competition between workers where every one of them seeks to get the biggest number of points in each degree in order to get its bonus and then to set off toward the next degree and so on. And here we notice that it is not required to put the worker in the forcible study to develop him in the field of implementing the system of bonus, because the worker can do that by himself through correspondence or attending forums or doing the experiment , where the financial motivation has been proved to be the successful medicine to solve the problems of the individual and to solve the economic problems of society .

Here we must mention that the system of bonus is considered as a kind of participation which is not announced or appeared although it is really existed in this participation and admitted in the financial systems and its judgment is considered as the judgment of the salary because it increases the profits which are connected with the increase in the averages of spending and taxes , and consequently the implementation of the system of bonus is the best guarantee to increase the average of taxes , so the successful factories or establishments are the ones which their commercial budgets have the numbers of bonus which increase with the increase in the number of their annual jobs . And for this reason the system of bonus is better than the system of the ordinary participation because what he takes from the net profit is not part of the account of losses and profits, and also the increase of his share will not help in improving the situation of production and his relation with workers. So for this reason I encourage the establishing of this kind of participation , and to insure money through different methods of finance , or through allowing the worker to share the profits of his company if it wants to guarantee the continuity of work without increasing the average of salary , and for bonus it is the amount that the worker gets in addition to his salary and which might reach to the double of his salary and this will guarantee the psychological relief for the worker because he feels that his exerted effort to improve the quality and the quantity of the production is compensated effort .

18

Page 19: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Here I want to show an important matter which is the negative effects of the increase of salaries on the annual results such as the budget of the state because the increase of the averages of salaries needs to insure the incomes which are necessary for it , while in the system of giving bonuses the matter is resolved because the amounts of bonuses are subjectively financed through increasing profits , and this is the case which leads to the refreshment of the economy because the case of increasing salaries without finding correct incomes will make the economy fall in countless strangulations , and in many cases it is described as unfair procedure especially if it is done suddenly because the modification of the incomes is a difficult process and not comparable with the process of spending them , and this means that there is no equality in the exerted effort between two cases especially when the government increases the incomes through decreasing the individual spending and through increasing the prices of some commodities and by this its purpose is to lessen the preparations in order to limit the consumption of some kinds and to use the money which is resulted from increasing the prices of these commodities in supporting the money which is required to finance the amounts of the salaries which increase above the limit which is determent for them in the annual budgets .

Here I want to show that the implementation of the system of bonus on the different kinds of professions has a big benefit because it attracts the people to work in the jobs in which they can achieve creation hopping to get the bonus even though that these professions are considered as low ones according to the wrong concept which is prevailed in our society , and this concept differs from the one in the civilized countries where the value of the civilized man is connected with the material that his profession can achieve regardless the kind of profession he does , and the question which remains is : When do we start with thinking about the way that stops the bleeding of unemployment first and then to start with decreasing its recent size until we reach to the smallest one and that if we do not eliminate it completely , because it is the disease that affects on the process of creation ?

The society which is controlled by social problems is a society always busies with finding a way fight these problems, while it can use all its mental abilities in the process of creation instead of using them in fighting these problems. The process of creation takes a big part from size of thinking which is done by brain and bonus is the one that makes thinking goes toward the process of creation , and for this reason let us succeed in our economic reform which guarantees the busy of the individual in reforming his productive behavior to comprehend later all kinds of production such as teaching and that by authoring books and preparing educational courses , another kind is the industrial production which insures the products which are valid to be used on the global level and that to protect us from the effect of globalization which aims to improve the level of certain nations on the account of the others , so for this let us work hard in order not to be considered a part of the weak nation and that by starting with the economic reform .

Bonus and ScienceWe have said that bonus is the factor that helps in activating and developing the experience, and if it has this big favor then: Why do not start with implementing it on our selves in our homes? and that to encourage our children to adopt it in their dealing with us and between themselves, and to abandon the educational method which is based on the matter that the amount of the financial tender is pledged with the financial ability of the head of family , and that by making a very small salary for the child which enables him to insure some basic things according to the ladder of priorities of spending , and after that we make a prize for him connected with the percentage of his achieving a certain success in one case of the cases

19

Page 20: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

which he treats in his daily life without ignoring to connect this with his desires in order not to make a mistake . So if we want to benefit from implementing the system of bonus to activate the process of creation of the children then we must know the field in which he can create ,otherwise we force the child to do the wrong creation which will cause a complete damage to the educational reformative process which we seek for it . This means that bonus has negative effects which can be avoided through knowing the way of using it, and this forces the economic reformers and with the help of parents to study the psychology of every student alone to know his desires. And this is of course more difficult than knowing any physical disease, because the treatment with the complicated human psychology needs to make experiments in order to identify the desires of the person subjected to this examination. This matter needs to prepare a big artistic cadre to lead this difficult mission even if it obligates us to ask the help of competent experts from neutral civilized countries, or sending delegations to specialize in the countries which are progressed in the field of adopting experiences as a base to determine the system of bonuses.

We must not also forget that adopting this method by fathers is not enough there must be another boards which help in this field ,especially when the parental system becomes unable to control things in and out the house . At this time the educational system begins with supporting the family in its mission and that by repaying its members for the successes they achieve in the scientific and the social fields according to the importance and the value of the achieved success. Here appears an important matter that the success of implementing the system of bonuses is pledged with subjecting it to standards and measures which must be fair and convinced to people, whose aim is to improve their financial conditions without exerting any effort in order to deserve what they get according to specific standards.

Workers between the public and the special and the common sectorsI have said that workers must be redistributed according to the principle of putting the suitable man in the suitable place. But now we are distributing job according to the characteristics of the owner of the job , and what are the best characteristics he must have and more useful for worker ? Do these characteristics guarantee his love for material such as anyone in this world?

The answer is yes, because the owner of the work is man just as the worker but in different percentages, and his love of collecting money is commensurable with his responsibilities which he carries their burdens in order to administrate his project, also the worker who exerts an effort and thinking aims to get the happiness which helps him to forget his tiredness. So there are common and mutual interests between the worker and the establishment in which he works, but this relation becomes strong in the individual projects and gradually becomes weak according to lawful form of the collective companies or the companies of money .So this relation is strong in the individual companies, while it gradually becomes weak according to the care of the administration councils of the companies of money in building a strong relation with worker or not. But the companies of money usually treat this wide distance between the worker and the owners of the work by finding a department for workers, but I think that it is not the perfect solution and this department must be subjected to a strong observation by the owners of the company, and that by choosing one of the members of the company to do this job, because the psychological factor plays a big role with the people who are responsible for administrating the department of the workers.

20

Page 21: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Here I want to say that the most important problem that the companies of money suffer from is the weakness in the relations between their members which causes deficit in their annual budget. The most important reason which causes disagreement between the members of any company is the matter of not appointing the right man in the right place. So for this reason the administration council must take care of this matter when it establishes the company in order to be able form a family whose members are specialists in their job.

Here I want to mention an important matter that we can not only bare the individual the responsibility of the weakness of his income, and this demands us to study carefully each application to establish any economic project, because its failure will form a big damage to the execution of the developing plans and it will increase of the average of unemployment.So the study of establishing any project must take care of the human element especially the matter of increasing incomes and bonuses, which its positive effects appear in reducing the burdens of the workers in the public sector from one side, and in reducing the human mass that seeks to increase its income from the other side.

The special sector must not leave the execution of this mission to the public one, and also the executive authority will not stand as an obstacle in the face of any economic reform done by the special sector, because the barrier between the two sectors is superstitious and we all work in one economy.

Export Workers and ExperiencesThe incoming of the workers who work abroad is not less than the incoming of any exportable commodity if we take care of it just as the other countries do. For example, India started in preparing the workers that are globally required and that by increasing the level of education to the educational level which is adopted in the European countries and in USA, leaving the individual initiative to benefit from the science existed in it and which is presented for a low cost in order to improve its scientific and cultural skills. For example India prepared workers to work in the field of computer, and that by teaching them how to prepare programs and how to work and maintain computers , also it prepared the artistic and the administrative cadre that are necessary to enter the global markets and how to deal with them .

We can see this in the markets of the states of the Arab gulf where the Indian workers controlled the trade and the marketing of computer, because of their broad experience in this field in addition to the cheapness of their cost comparing to the experiences of other countries.

In addition to the pervious things India also prepared the managers of banks and companies and teachers, workers who build roads and bridges according to the modern European method. In order to keep their scientific progress during the process of expatriation they teach them their children in their special schools, and consequently this group who prepared its self to be a source of support to the Indian economy will keep this support.

From the previous we notice that we lost a big income which was very important to develop our economy in addition to the nutritious nucleus to continue the process of exporting, especially when this nucleus works on training the young elements who loves expatriation.So the export of workers has two benefits: the first is the bringing of the foreign currency, the second one is the help in keeping the level of the income because the one who does not work shares the bread of the one who works. Also the spread of our workers on the global level

21

Page 22: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

represents a global advertisement for us, where we can consider the Syrian workers as messengers help us to expand the contact with external world; also we can use them as mean to identify our products in the countries of expatriation.

The Arab handsWe as Arab people must call each other to create a certain tie that ties us an strengthens our passion toward each other. This tie was represented with the initiative of creating a common Arab market which helps in creating balance between the Arab workers on the land of the Arab world, for example some Arab countries may need the Egyptian workers who work in agriculture and service, and so on.So there is an insistent need to establish common Arab market for workers in order to feed the Arab workers that are required for the Arab world, and by this we treat unemployment in the Arab world through investing the Arab money in supporting the Arab workers.Here appears the importance of the market of the Arab workers because it helps in rehabilitating them according to the level of the Arab world from one side, and according to the global level from another side but according to the requirements and the needs of the Arab world.

Also we must remember a very important matter that the liberation of the Arab world from the chain of the technique which is opposed by the big industrial countries, can not be done only through raising the level of technique in the educational courses. For example we can through importing an expert in certain field form a group of technicians and experts, and this is what we need because the Arab land is fertile and it has many buried resources but it needs the Arab experts to invest all these treasures for the interest of the Arab nation.In fact we as the Arab world which is integral economically do not need to export the workers if we use them on the Arab land from gulf into ocean, because the Arab world which has a strong internal economy and huge number of inhabitants can absorb the workers on its land.

If we compare between the number of immigrants from the developed countries to the developing ones and the immigrants from the developing countries to the developed ones, then we will find the second number is more than the first one. So the workers in the developing countries form a factor that supports the economy of the developed countries, because the human hand remains the base of every work regardless the degree of technique in it.

Here I want to say the Arab world can benefit from this factor in order to get rid off the slavery of workers practiced by the civilized countries, especially when it uses the dismissal of workers as a mean of political and economic pressure on the countries of these workers.Here I want mention a very important matter why we pay high salaries for the ones who carry nationalities from European countries and USA, while we pay salaries which are more less to Arab workers though they have experiments not less than the experiments of the foreign workers. Here I have this question: Does not this consider as a fight against the increase of the size of the Arab experience and indirect support for the foreign experiences?So for this I find that it is my duty to call the Arab people to treat their experts as they do with the foreign ones who have the same experience.

Experiences and Automation

22

Page 23: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

The banal question we ask our selves is: What is the target of inventing automation is it a kind of game or it is invented to service the jobs of the people? Then we see that automation has many benefits that comprehend all aspects of life.

For example it helps the educational people in transporting, keeping, and discussing science through e. mail and internet. Also lecturer uses computer in writing information, and in modifying the text through adding or canceling some words or adding it to another text.So for this I see that experience of using computer must be added to the experiences that man uses in his profession. For example doctor can use computer in writing the descriptions of disease and its development during different times. Not only that the use of computer went far from that to the extent that it took the place of doctor in diagnosing disease and giving medicine , and that through entering the descriptions of disease that the patient suffer from into the computer which begins the process of diagnosing the disease and giving the medicine

What is said about the profession of medicine is said about all the professions.

Also computer is used in observing the movements of stars and planets, and in leading spaceships and plans.

So from what is written above we notice that computer is necessary for all kinds of professions and for all aspects of life and for this reason the learning of using computer is a duty of every one regardless the level of his education.

So for this reason I call the chambers of commerce and industry in Syria not to give licenses only to the boards that use computers in their industrial and commercial jobs, also they must teach the licensed boards the use of computer.

Experiences and CulturesThe definition of the standard of experience differs from one nation to another according to the degree of its culture, for example Switzerland which is considered as a civilized country but its culture differs from the French or the Italian culture. So for this reason the standard of experience which is adopted in their universities is different, some of them insist on to subject the student who wants to join them to an examination to evaluate his scientific experience, while the others do not do this.

It is true that the cultural difference between the civilized countries became small and they established one economic union, but every country is still has its own experiences according to its special standard. I think that this paradox is for the interest of the European Union, because the scientific competition in the one union helps in increasing the level of science.It is wrong to employ anyone according to his certification and not according to the experience and the performance and creativity that the employee shows during certain period, because the choice of any person is done according to the scientific source of his certification and to certifications of experience he got from the boards he worked for.The scientific reform that aims to connect experiences with science must be done through liberating education and that by making competition between schools and universities according to the global scientific requirements.

Financing Experiences and Creativity

No doubt that the owners of experiences have cleverness and creativity and they do not have money which is necessary for transforming these thoughts into concrete things , so for this reason they remain under the mercy of the persons or the establishments they work for .From this fact we see that opening banks to finance creative persons will solve their financial problems. Here I want to insist on a very important matter that opening centers to finance creative persons will insure new subjective job opportunities, which is very important process to get rid off the excessive workers in all sectors, and at the same time it will decrease the visible and the invisible unemployment because it works hard to change its financial situation.

The best evidence of the importance of the intellectual creativity for the civilized countries, is that those huge amounts of money which are paid to the creative persons to get from them the right of investing their creativity industrially and commercially. Another one is that many of the industrialists, who want to establish industries of famous marks in their countries, pay big amounts of money under the name of buying experience which is called in the industrial convention Now How.

But till when the Arab world will keep on buying experiences and knowledge from the civilized countries which are not fix, and till when we will remain as a slaves for the experiences of the civilized countries? .So for this reason we must start in encouraging and supporting our local experiences, because this will help us in increasing our incomes from the foreign currency which are resulted from buying our experiences creativities. So the investment of experiences and creativities is an important way which can be used in rebuilding the industrial entity in a correct way.

The necessary steps for the economic reformTo begin with reforming the economy we must do the following steps:

1) the first step : the study of the budget of the state must be done for five years in order to know the reasons of loss resulted from some items in each budget , and then to work on treating them by stopping their account . Here I mention the following example:

There are some factories whose their loss is annually, and by auditing their conditions it was discerned that they have many diseases such as: the weakness of the system of marketing and the administrative system etc. The remedy for these diseases is by allowing invest able establishments to administrate these factories, and to pay ten percent of their annual profits to the budget of the government.

We can also grant the investor of one factory the right of administrating it as he wants, even the right of dismissing the workers who are not qualified.

Here somebody may say my proposal will lead to a social problem which is unemployment, and my answer is:The process of the economic reform includes the eliminating of all kinds of unemployment, and using the profits to pay the wages of the workers who do not work is better than taking illusive salaries for their illusive jobs which cause damages to them and their factory.

24

Page 25: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

From above we conclude that the reformative issue must be firm in order to lead to good results. Many things can be said about this kind of reform, but we must be brave in taking the firm decision for all kinds of contracts which administrates those factories.

2) The second step is: treating the restrictions in the factories which do not achieve enough profits that go with the money which is paid for them, or those factories which do not achieve their required profits according to the studies of their feasibilities.We must also make a study to know the recent situation of the administrative system the systems of marketing and purchases, and then we give the administrationsof these factories a limited period for reforming but if they failed then we appoint new administrations . We must also implement the principle of bonus if we succeeded in achieving the required reform.

3) Fighting the waste: waste is the bleed that consumes our economic abilities and our resources, and it has many forms such as:The money which is paid in its wrong place, not following a correct ladder to arrange the priorities in the economic projects. Another form is: not putting plans for development which go with our reality and its abilities from one side and with the reality of the development in the global economy from another side.

Here I want to mention an example of waste: if we visit the scientific departments in the universities of our country, then we will find that the sets of laboratories do not go with the scientific effort which is required from these universities. Because the quality of these sets is low and their use does not subject to any process of ration. Also we notice that the laboratory which is specialized for every department of the faculty will be enough for the whole faculty if it is used for sixteen hours divided into two hours for every group of students.

4) Restudy the current economic reality: this is a very important step because the correct knowledge of the current economic reality is very important matter, because we can not set off toward a successful economic future if we do not build the foundations which are necessary to set off toward it in a good way.The economic life is a chain which consists of connected rings if we neglect some of them or neglect to fix the defects in others, and then this will cause a big damage to the whole rings because all of them are considered as one mass.So we must treat all kinds of defects in the recent time in a correct way in order to insure the balance in the net of the economic situation, because it is considered as a vital necessity to achieve the correct sally into a new strong economy which is adaptable with the circumstances of this age.

5) Treating the problem of unemployment: this problem is a burden on every citizen who has abilities to work in order to insure his life and to achieve his self.We must recognize between the unemployment which is willable and the one which is not willable, the first is more dangerous than the second and it is a disease which must be treated through knowing its causes, and may be the main reason is the psychological depression resulted from scarcity of income.

The second kind of unemployment is the one that society carries its responsibility, and it has two kinds: the masked unemployment, and the apparent one.

25

Page 26: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

The masked unemployment has many forms the most important one is: practicing the worker a job that he does not like which makes the worker not to use the ultimate power of his mind from one side, and his physical effort from another side.

6) The sixth step is: treating the matter of non benefiting from the scientific competences and experiences whether in or out the country. Here we must wonder about the reasons of the success of the Arab scientists in general and the Syrians especially. The correct answer is that those scientists do find neither a suitable scientific climate nor enough care. So we must insure these two matters for them in order to be able to increase the scientific level in all aspects, starting with schools and different social industrial and commercial establishments, and ending with the establishments which are specializes in scientific research.

7) The ultimate benefit from the available abilities after subjecting them to classification in the ladder of priorities.We have many natural resources such as oil, gas, cotton, olive oil, wheat etc. We must increase the quantity and the quality of these resources, which means to increase the size of the available abilities in order to insure the needs of the local consumption, and to protect their existence in the global markets through insuring the element of competition .And the ladder of priorities must be subjected to the preference of manufacturing the primacy materials, then buying another ones for current industries.The study of the available abilities is very important matter because there is equation between what we possess and between what this possession can insure for us.The economic reform is the one that makes the two parts of equation go toward the benefit of the available abilities.

So for this reason we must support the intellectual and the industrial movements especially the ones which is connected with the developing plans, because the economic reform is one mass or a chain which its beginning the knowledge of the reality and its end is to reach to the promised target which makes the movement of reform really achieves the reform.

8) Putting the ladder of priorities for services: which first takes care of the services which are connected with useful and productive production. Which means the services that activate and help in collecting the primacy materials which are used in producing the commodities which are susceptive for export, such as constructing roads and insuring the equipments of transporting that facilitate transporting the primacy materials from and to the centers of manufacturing.Here I want to insist on an important matter that the study of the economic reality is the first priority that must be done, especially when we face a continuous deficit in our commercial budgets. We must not also establish new industries, or oppose economic laws which make many industrialists to do theoretical export in order to exchange the local currency with the foreign one through it.

In my opinion there is no industrialist who does not want to export as long as it achieves profits for him. So for this reason the executive and the legislative authorities must cooperate with the industrialists and exporters to find the suitable solutions such as giving them an exemption from taxes and all facilities to encourage export .Also the punishment of prison can be substituted with getting back the foreign currency, and that through giving exportable facilities to the factory which gets back the biggest amount of the foreign currency according to the size of its exports.

26

Page 27: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

So services are part of the cost of production and states present them as a help to activate the process of export. Also they present the foreign currency which its presentation of course is connected with its effect on the global competition , and this decision must subject to the scientific establishment which consists of scientific researchers who are specialists in the jobs of marketing and export and in studying the global markets . Also this subject can be treated through opposing a tax on the profits of an exportable commodity, in addition to the possibility of giving a financial support to the industries that face a strong competition. For example the Turkish government began to support the exporter of oranges and lemons because their market is like a stock market where the prices change everyday, and because the Turkish lands are full of tress of orange and lemon. So for this reason the Turkish government resorted to the method of support in order to get rid off this product and not to destroy it, in addition to this there are many workers who work in this agriculture will benefit from this support.

The Syrian government has resorted to implement this rule for exporting the clothes which are made of the Syrian cotton, and the name of the board which was giving the restitution was the box of activating. But in my opinion the real restrictions for administrating this box were not put especially the documents which the source ought to present them in order to get the restitution, because this will make all the people take the same restitution in spite of the fact that their losses are not the same.

The effects of bids’ procedures on income and economy in generalThe bids decree obligate foreign offerer to declare that he has a registered commercial agent or has an eternal branch in Syria; it also obligate him to specify a choosing home in his offer otherwise his offer will be refused.I want to comment on this decree as this:

1- The choosing home : there is an obvious contradiction here because we impose taxes on this choosing home's inhabitant since he is an agent for the offered company , while he is not having the required characteristic of agent ; it is unbelievable request in such age that is prevailed by communication civilization ( fax & e mail … ) . This restriction of choosing home impose its owner to stay in that specific place for informing any new risks the bidder needs to tell the offerer about. so, this matter complete the connection between bidder and offerer , and increase the offer cost considering the additional expenses that the offerer have to pay for any one accepts to specify his house or office as a choosing home for that offerer . As a result, the state here undertake additional financial burdens that are joined to imports cost that could be very essential materials as medicines, ice or tea; these material are imported through governmental establishments bids can reflect the clear purchasing power for limited income worker or employee.

2- Bid bonds: the bidder asks usually to attach offers to bid bonds that are guaranteed by one of the Syrian commercial bank, and also to be confirmed by one bank’s correspondents outside. The bidder keeps these bid bonds for long period since the last date for accepting offers (dead line) till confirming contract with the company or body that win that tender, this period may go for at least one year. Here, since the possibilities for getting the required bank guarantee for participating in bids are very restricted to the granted bank facilities from the offerer deals with, he has to resort to bidders that keep these guarantees for year and give them a 10% of their worth, which equal the profit that he has to pay to that guaranteed bank .

27

Page 28: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

this guarantee that is usually gone with the wind , however if he has the chance to restore it , he will stay considered loser since the traveling and staying expenses are more than that guarantee , which stay frozen till one of bid's committee dare to advice opinion to release .. the negative effects started to appear here when companies have become avoid the participation in bids and prefer to stay away of our market that is characterized by a lot of irritation and complications; this of course weaken the rival factor, and convert our market to market for selling the stagnant goods, the Syrian consumer consequently is the one who pay the price when he get a high price commodities in weak quality.

3- the secret or medial price : each department usually specify a medial price for the declared commodity in bids to know the acceptable price that different companies or factories offer and in most cases we should lenient in 10 or 15 % up and down of proposed priced . so, this medial price has a great importance in canceling or delaying any bid, this is of course damaging the execution of the developmental projects in a way make the ministry of finance to consider these unused money as a financial saving, which is used in supporting the next budgets, with subjecting it to the same complicated and hard conditions and neglecting the bad effects that may cause the national economy as a result of executing not these developmental projects in their specific time .

I think the ministry of finance, the responsible ministry of bids, should use all the new technologies for connecting with global markets in order to get the latest prices for every sort we want to import. this action can be organized through creating a special research center can supply each department wish to announce bid with the global price in mistake about 1 or 2 % which is of course better than the present rate 10 % . This center can also serve us in giving the medial price when the bids' bounds are opened, which is a fair case for all participating parts and especially for the economic bidder and exhibitor. I think this center should obtain full timer specialists and new technologies equipment in order to grant us the wanted benefit, which helps our economy for advancement by making him in continuous connection with outside world.

4- qualification: asking for this condition may be as obstacles for most of the companies that can do the required work but these conditions prevent them. So, how any new company could enter the qualifying circle if the bid’s conditions do not allow any increasing in the qualified companies’ number? Meanwhile these companies have prepared when they create very new productive projects in their countries. So, what is the solution? I think we should depend on a neutral judgment which is the building up research center, which can set the suitable technical conditions that are required from the company to execute the required project. This center also should supervise continually on the gradual execution and watch every small parts whatever the smallest used work and materials, this process is very costly one but this cost dose not compare with the high technical qualified results that we can get from adopting that manner. So, we should encourage on creation in any place and area and put our confidence in that new companies that are more technique than the qualified ones, which are using their global fame as a mean for their commodities’ quality.

The date of opening offersMost of bids announcement include a specific time for beginning considering to the date of opening offers, but without specifying this date. the possible delay in opening offers files starting from the qualification envelop ( envelop A) is in fact decrease of offerer abidance toward the department , which is the only responsible for changing any condition of his offer as a result of the delay that these conditions subjected for. What is the solution? I think there

28

Page 29: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

should be a specific time for each stage of bid procedures ones , a specific date for accepting offers, another one for opening qualification envelops, specific one for technical study and another date for beginning and ending the financial committee work till the final confirm procedures . I think all these dates must be within three months with granting all the possible encouraging rewards and compensation for all workers in bids field; they should have all the helping information that are existing in public and private sectors in order to spread out the love and amiability atmosphere in different stages committees . All these procedures are for achieving the bid’s goals and allowing the offerer to get on an acceptable profit and the bidder on suitable price and quality in a way each one dose not damage the other.

Bids rulesThe bids processes are organized by different rules and rules and instructions, some of them do not suit nowadays age that is full of new informatics and technologies’ system. So, we should restudy our basis for bids and get use of other forerunner countries in those field ; the foreign bidder has become very distracted, shall he participates in such mysterious bid some of its condition oblige him on subjecting to rules and wordings mentioned only by just a number or date ? Or shall he stops participation or add sums on his offer as a compensation for possible dangers? In this case the only loser is the bidder who represents the national economy, so

The severe strictness in applying the old rules led to decrease the rival factor, and also impose on treasury additional financial burden, which weakens the individual income and consequently declining the living standard as a result of the weakness of purchasing power. here, we should reconsider all these old rules and instructions that organize the bids’ process and issue other easy and understood legal and financial ones for all the government bids; these new conditions should translated to many languages and distributed on commercial attaches who also distribute them in their countries .I hope from the state to form a common committee consists of some bidders and the related authorities to prepare a special project for these bids’ procedures; this committee works on avoiding all the previous obstacles considering the advanced countries’ applied procedures in this commercial work field.

Bid bonds (guarantee)Insisting on inclosing offer with this guarantee , which is usually a very bid sum, may inforce company to stop in participation in any bid , especially if it has participated in so many bids and has to frozen money due to the routine of bids’ procedures . This best solution here is either by decreasing this guarantee rates in general or for the companies that their ones come to a specific amount in the Syrian establishments, or by limiting the keeping period for these guarantee to be, for example, for one month, which is the period that fallow the finishing of studying offers technically.

Distressing the financing in the usual annual budget or by exterior financeWe can announce for any bid without considering these matters:

1- The presence of the advertised materials in everywhere in our country.2- Can we produce these advertised materials according to global prices and

specifications?3- The relation between these materials and the developmental plans relating to the bids’

priority principle.4- Non announcing of bids for the materials that do not have specific place in budget.

29

The adopting of these four stages in announcing for bids cement the credibility the announcing authority of bids towards local and foreign bidders, here I want to confirm that financing the foreign bids by local currency is insufficient ,but we should distress these money in foreign currency to make bidders avoiding reannouncing their bid for second or third time. Now, adopting not a healthy policy in bids’ announcing will increase the economic burden as a result of unavailability the foreign currency that is required for financing the essential productive projects, the best example here for the local consumption raising process is (Dubai) the modest commercial city, which has started to get use of the obstacles of neighbor countries’ rules and its geographic location in order to increase its industrial activities. So, we should reform our bids’ system to avoid any repetition for second or third time that cause the continuous slowdown in the economic growing’s process.

Appointing an agent or opening an office for offerer in SyriaInsisting on the offerer's continual resident in Syria is only, in my opinion, for getting financial taxes despite of the services that the hidden agent can present to all authorities, this consultant or hidden agent get his wages less than 0.5 % although the expensive charges that he undertakes for more than two years till we find companies accept our deadly previous mentioned conditions.

So, forcing these companies to adopt this bad manner in their dealing with government departments will increase their burdens and people’s ones as well. They are not interested in appointing a Syrian person as an agent without any test period ; let us assume that they appointed someone and after that there was a kind of misunderstanding between them, it is not an easy matter to change that agent and charge with another taxes . the agent in some cases may be a general agent for all company’s products, but exposed to some tax problems when he treats with one of the company’s activities .so, we should leave the option for these companies to choose the right person according to their wishes of experiences or scientific certificate, and ministry of finance in this case can gain a rate of that contract’s sum for example 0.5 %. we are badly need to treat with every one in useful exchange represented by export and import, here we should work on making the trade balance for our country advantages and providing the foreign currency , and comparing this benefit with the benefit of raising the taxes rate . the first benefit is a real one has an effects on economy as a whole, the other one is the benefit of filling the treasury with local currency to handle our expenses and costs inability; so we should support the people who are trying to attract investors to our country and reconsider the taxes that they should costed with especially if they are working according to production’s developmental plans.

Bids session for opening offers and examine samplesThe usual habit in opening qualification files and technical specifications randomly is reflecting negative results on speed of bid performance. What astonish me here is the contradiction between our need for any project execution and the big neglect in doing the bids’ procedures, the reason of course is the present relation between responsibility and material , this relation that is represented by behavior that could be either useful or damage for society. So, we can make the bids committees' members follow good behavior by providing them some material means (computers and marketing research centers) and improving their salaries to encourage them for using these means, we can also grant them

30

Page 31: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

some bonus as much as they can save in the bids they handle since the big amount of sums of imported volume is completed through bids.So, handling the opening of the three files, in my opinion, is handled through decreasing the numbers of session committees, for example the qualification file and technical one in one session with granting one month for technical study and completing the unessential missing things, and receiving guarantees or bid bonds on this session opening . The interim between last date for accepting offers and this session date should not overtake one week, while the final session should not overtake one week starts from the end of the technical study mentioned month, so the total period for offer is about 45 days and bid bonds should not stay in bidder custody more than 40 days. Here, I assure that the number of offerers will be increased in case of adopting this principle, so let us ease the bids’ old traditional procedures that have become control on bidders' minds and frighten offerers.

Granting some advantages for countries that deal with usWe should look for some markets for our products, these products that should agree with consumers’ habits and wishes, and if not we should know the suitable modifications in our presents Data in order to win these markets; meanwhile we try to import some materials that provide our industrial needs and help us in entering the global competition markets. So, relating to this mutual relation, we should restudy our economic reality and developmental plans to avoid failure in this balance, and resort to the strong economies to support ours by experts and efforts. Globalization has made what we used to consider luxury material a necessary one as a result of spreading out the meaning of need and spreading out the civilization concept as well.

Here, we should improve our products’ quality to suit the markets of some countries that can cooperate with us on completing the production’s stages, then in exporting products to industrial countries’ markets. So, these cooperating countries can export for us their experts with some raw materials, and then complete production stages with the required materials and equipments to produce it according to required specifications for clothes. This way allow us to win these markets that our cooperating authorities spend a lot of money on it from in completing their production’s stage; getting on markets is very costly process especially that some global exporters have become controlling on special markets because they have the needed money and means.

So, we should support our economy in order to impose our commercial conditions in our treatment with others , and to attract some suppliers that participating in our bids by easing their procedures and hurrying in settlement; here we should also grant some advantages for countries that we exchange commodities with because bids’ success is resulted from economic power, that is what we have become notice when foreign establishments prefers to participate in bids that are financed according to loans or aids rather than what are financed by state’s budget. Take this important example: assume that there are a desire in one of government’s departments to announce a bid for supplying materials or building up a project in cost of one million $, let us see here the expected damages of the present adopted procedures in announcing of bids

-Bid amount 1.000.000 $

-Bid bond 20.000 $

31

Page 32: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

-Add 10% on insurances as charges 2000

-Adding it charges with insurances since it will not be restored 22.000

-loss resulted from delay one year of the specific date of execution 1.022.000 x 10% =102200

- increasing in prices rate in case of continual announcing 5 % 1.022.000 x 5 %= 51100

- currency differentiation 5% 1.022.000 x 5%= 102200

- offered price 1.277.500

While we can purchase by 1.000.000 $, so there is an addition from offerers 27 % rate. The loss will be increased if this project is just one ring in others’ ones, and more damaging for economy if this project is for public services that affect other productive ones.

All these cases cause a lot of losses for national economy due to their effects on income volumes , but the biggest loss is the fast change in the industry's equipments and accouterment especially when the announcer sticking to obligating bidder for the same announcement conditions. The administration also suffer from the burdens of using old useless equipments and neglects the bids that deal with modernizing factories to activate export process , which is affected a lot by these old machines that produce weak products in quality and quantity. So, economy in general is consisting from connected rings and any defect in any ring cause a lot of economic problems, these problems that are caused by inconvenient of bids conditions to global economic situation, and consequently goods stagnation in warehouse & increasing of unemployment rate.

Finally, the problem obviously is not arising from fixing hidden or apparent agent, but it is bigger than that and it should be honored because it is the most important factor in economic reform. So, we should solve the basic parts of problem (the parts that cause a lot of loss ) then solving the less important ones before considering some people’ little profit, which dose not harmonize with their exerted effort as a result of the present obstacles in bids’ way and manner .

The common Arabian market for bidsThe presence of common Arabian market can provide the circulation for the Arabian goods within Arab countries to replace the present applied bids way. We can unit the Arab world purchases by creating a special office can provide a rival prices due to the big amount of possible goods and the suitable storing conditions. Moreover, the scientific capabilities of the Arab world enable him to build up a marketing research center helps in reveling the global prices depending on stock markets and big world distribution and consumptions regions ,in addition to distribute the world industrial areas according to the available hands , material raw and exportation posts . This center also should try to market the Arabian goods in the Arabic countries as a first step by removing all the rival obstacles and knowing well the consumption volume for any new Arabic industry. That is because increasing the demand on selling can achieve the quotation between production & local consumption and the world marketing, that is what we can notice in the American industries that are protected by its powerful local consumption.

We can consider the American economy an integral one on the American continent level in addition to its military power that enable it to control and direct some countries’ market, which are the only relief for its goods. I want here to mention one example of the American economic pressure: one of the Swedish factories had won a bid in one country of the third world ones, but it could not execute what it contract on as a result of some American authorities' threats of depriving them of some elements of produced goods. so, the united states of America can play in world’s markets and people life as well by refusing to change its highly raw material prices to force the other countries to decrease their prices; so these countries are obliged to refresh indirectly the American economy in order to make their goods achieve the competition factor on the international commerce standard . Here appears the importance of applying the scientific research in the bids field in order to excerpt the needed information about the world’s markets and to replace the complicated and costly bids’ procedures, which cause many economic damages, by good and cheap source for any offerer.I mentioned above the negative effects of the present applied policy of bids, this policy that not only delay the execution of developmental projects t, but also the economic reform in general. Now, correction the bids work track is the most important factor in decreasing waste and refreshing indirectly the export process by reducing of the import cost; so we should hurry this reform process for bids because the present procedures have become as a disease, which intensify in the economy body as a whole . I also assure on using the scientific informatics manner instead of the traditional manners (evaluating and information of previous bids). We should not forget that the global financial changes have an important role in this field where we can specify the approximate price for the exposed materials especially when this manner is applied in scientific research center, which is specialized in studying these materials global prices.

Bids and stopping wasteI spoke about the procedures and formalisms that are used to provide some government needs o be used in its present or new projects, and of course bids are very connected with the government economic policy. It resort to increasing the announcing of bids when the public sector control is increasing while this case be on the contrary when the government resort to minify its control over economy. So, it allows to itself to hold contracts with inner private authorities that have relation with outside world to provide the public sector needs of some goods and commodities. Here, I want to clarify that specifying each ministry or governmental department needs without any special study depend on priority principle is very dangerous matter, take an example of one ministry needs for some road equipment so how lovely if we make a geographic survey all over country to know the available sorts regardless the owner body (public or private sector); in other words providing any need of the available ones before the announcement of bids. This way saves us some money and adopting the privatizing process for providing the wanted needs by depending on employment policy , which is depending on self ( individual servers himself instead of the state) . So, the individual's takeover the serving of himself helps us in finishing unemployment because the unstudied government controls over the economic issues raise the unemployment rate. Here, we can conclude that the government expanding in the commercial field ( import and export ) is specifying the private sector activities and is loading it financial burdens because the announced authority dose not connect between needs and import and dose not study the possibility of presence the required thing in our local available .

Take this example of the bid that ministry of transport insist on announcing for first or second time to import internal transportation means although the clear economic damages. The best reasons here for this loss is:1- The annual loss of the annual consumption: If the balancing value for purchasing is 50 million dollar and the annual consumption, rate for these buses is 20% so this amount will be futile within five years.2- The annual profit is 9% of that 50 million so it is 11250 million dollar in five years, which means that the total loss in these five years is50.000.000 + 11.250.000 = 61.250.000 million dollarin addition to the paid expenses for making these buses work: fuel, drivers and administrative’ salaries and maintenance ….Here, the private sector can pay these amounts by informing each microbus owner of the necessity of replacing it by minibus within two years, and using this microbus in other areas. I want to ask the executive authority: why it dose not suggest creation of joint-stock companies for internal transport that guarantee for individual the healthy and correct transport instead of raising the taxes rate to provide the required money for these buses purchasing process.3- I think there should be a special research center can study the benefits of every economic work and connect it with other one depending on accurate study of our economic reality. So, this center specifies our purchasing priorities according to the capability of the private sector to provide them or not, especially if the bid is relating to the services field. Here, we can see that converting the transport subject to private sector is helping the limited income people to invest their money in this real and guaranteed investment and to find for themselves a self job opportunity especially when the drivers fell that they are now the owner for part or even all that microbus.

Bids and privatizing processThe present concern of the government is either to extend the private sector work by creating new job opportunities or to abandon some services or projects for that sector, which has more performance quality and less charges. We should know that the relation between services and the taxes is directly one, so this increased volume in this case is a helping factor for granting sufficient salaries for using these services. Here, when private sector does these services, dose not raise their cost but improve their performance as a result of subjecting to the competition factor; however when the government restrict any service project to itself , it dose not provide for person any profit as a result of lack of the same project competition. So, the reform process seems easier when state depends more and more on private sector by organizing its wishes to fill our economic information bank in the economic studies for useful projects, which produce commodities, can rival the same global one. The local investors are investing their money in projects that are studied to achieve success in the local market only, while they should know that the success in the global competition market is reflecting automatically the local market one.

Studying the budgets’ positions and privatizing process The financial savings in every year-end is usually transferred to state budget and we usually consider the department, which save any amount of money a very good one. However, we should call for account this department for asking practically unneeded money that can help other departments in their developmental plans. So, we should build up a research center study the using of every clause of the budget ones on the country level because making the

34

Page 35: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

equipment work for two or three shifts for different department is better than each department announcement for bid to provide the equipment, which are used for very short period. This way enables us to invest the lowest money for what we need in developing our economy in order to step fast to the required economic reform.

Here, we can see the importance of studying the clauses the state general and branch budget according to each clause specific need. This away avoids us the economic mess that is resulted from the bids announcement for more than one time, which make most of companies abstain from participation in these bids. These bids which most of its participators are usually weak establishments, that is what practically conflict with the bid benefit in getting the best offer (quality and price), which can not be obtained in the present operative rules of bids.

Studying offer’s periodWhen we check the period that separate the date of announcing of any bid and the date of contraction on its results, we find that it may be in some cases for one year and even more; the reason for this is for the present adopted formalism in opening offer bound and checking the contracts’ procedures. This action is affecting economy negatively as a result of many reasons : the delay in getting the equipment cause a delay in executing projects in their specific time and a bad execution process because the offerer unable to change his price although that long period of his offer. Moreover, the bid bonds that are maintaining for that long period in Syrian government departments prevent him of participating in other bids without mentioning the financial loss of peaces' prices differences.

Here, it seems that this long period is damaging all sides, but nobody in public sector seems interested in reforming the present bids procedures. So, the offerers start avoiding the participation in bids or participate after they cover their prices with additional sums to protect themselves of the previous possible loss. All what I have mentioned is affecting economy especially when we find incoherence in bids in two governmental departments, when one department starts to purchase some equipments for the other one or the first present the required supplies and the other present the experience and technical knowledge. So, one department will be broken as a result of the other one’s neglect in providing the required material for production. The problem here is very big when the project is a service one his success is depending on other ones’ success as for example the project of handling road for helping tourist in their transport for the wanted areas. Therefore, the tourism season as a whole will be in danger in case of finishing not the work in this road.

We should understand that economy is just a mass that consist of different departments and individuals and every supervisor or worker in any part should improve his supervision or work to get the wanted useful economy. We should adopt the bid manner in our daily life; we should learn the policy of saving which is the most important principle of bids. We should teach our children how and when they should chose their daily needs in a healthy way enable them to make the right decision in getting the best thing in the best price. In addition to that we should do the same in our schools, factories and our different life sides to contribute in ease the chosen process when we become responsible of reforming this old present bids’ system.

Bids and high qualityNo doubt that the studied organized purchasing system, which is accompany with the developmental plans, is allowing us to get the suitable quality. Here, I think it is better to

35

Page 36: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

make the bidder specifying not the required specification according to catalogs’ information and leave the door open for every factory to offer its goods with all the possible scientific means (lectures, publications, making experiments, symposiums, and visiting factories). In other word granting every exhibitor the freedom to adopt the means he thinks that are suitable to convince the bidder of that his commodity is achieved the required results in a very short time.One of the convincing factors for consumer to purchase any commodity (from a psychological point of view) is the presented services of the marketing body. Let have this example: man is having a farm which is far from his house and he needs to a one sort of vehicle that achieve his needs with small amount of oil , here we can make for him a special transport machine that can provide him with all his requirements in this case he will definitely purchase our product. I want here to show that the quality of our presented material should comply with the financial interest of the last customer. for example if these materials were pens, we should not purchase a big quantities of cheap ones because they are only distributing free, that is because the consumer will for sure be very angry when he consider that these pen are useless; so, this propaganda do badly for our reputation whereas it should reveal our commodity quality. In other word, the quality of propaganda is reflecting the quality of commodity, which should rival other ones in the whole market; here many bids unfortunately do not consider the present local production on the plea of inability to rival the foreign one. If that is true, why we permit the building of this production’s factories? Why it wan not regulation its situation according to the global competition situation? So, there is a happened defect in investment matter which has become just a burden over economy, in addition to that the wrong controlling over bids lead to weaken the individual income and raise the unemployment rate. This is just a result of disharmony in announcement of bids with our economic developmental plans and misapplying the priority principle in accepting investments. here I want to mention that when we wish to make any new industry we always try to import its products from outside area, but knowing these products prices through bids allow us to take the suitable decision about making this industry or not ; in other words if the production cost for these commodities with an acceptable profit is equal its purchasing price ( FOB) in this case we can make this industry .

So, there should be an accurate cooperation between the apparatuses that study bids and the other economic activities in a way make these apparatus an important source for information for marketing, industrial and commercial authorities. These information that must be organized and classified through the informatics system not as we do now in resorting to archive of the previous years. We can enter the related information of purchasing iron bid and the social and political circumstances of the authorities that we contract with, but dose the decreasing of their prices a normal thing or are subjected to political pressure?

The linkage of bids’ activities with information centerWhen we want to apply bids works, we should know the place of the needed material and know its owner need for it; this action helps us in getting fast use of this material and supports indirectly the required foreign currency to import some commodities. This way helps us in controlling gradually on material unemployment which could be added to worker unemployment; handling the material unemployment can be one factor of handling the human one because when we invest the perfect investment for available we practically use the hands in its utmost energy. So, we should restudy these two unemployment reality in

36

Page 37: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

order to make products' cost suits their quality and both accompany with the global rival situation.

Depending on internet as a basis for specifying quality and priceNo doubt, that the present adopted manner in acknowledging the sort and price of the global products has become very primitive one, so, we should in my opinion use the informatics and internet system that grant us the correct information about the rival situation for each commodity in any time we want. Here, I think we should create an informatics' center for the state purchasing to make us in full acknowledgment of this commodity price and new technologies. These data helps the offerer in applying his commitments correctly where most of employees in bids field think that they make good victory as a results of the sever competition within offerers, but they in fact gathering bad produced commodities or insufficient productive projects. In short, if we considerا the damages that may come over the governmental department as a result of incorrect execution, we find that the damage sum is much more than the saving that is happened as a result of the strong competition within competitors .

How lovely if we change the present adopted bids system and ways to be as the used ways in the civilized countries. The united Arab of emirates take in its consideration the best moderating five offers according to scientific standards; this way has two characteristics : the first one is wasting not the time in studying that big number of offers, while the second is relating to the offerers themselves who depend from the beginning to present a serious not illusive offers.

Preparation and bidsWe should qualify ourselves before asking qualification from offerers, we ask them for instance if they were practiced the industrial and commercial activity that is announced outside their country. Here, I want to ask: has our economic and cultural standard reached to a higher stage of that offerer country one? Do we have the required experience to ensure of competence these companies or establishments work in their countries? So, we should open the door for the new companies that are now trying to prove their work’s quality and acquire the fame and confidence.

Adopting that manner will definitely restrict the participation with that global fame companies that their number is getting decreased in most of local and global economic troubles and consequently cause damage to development countries economies that enjoy very little capabilities. Therefore, we should strengthen our economy in order to be able to produce the commodity we import and to evaluate the offerers' activities in their countries. in addition to that we should build up a scientific center can deal with the early revealing of the companies' qualification that build up projects in their country and we are going to build up the same ones in our country, in other words this center can grant these companies a competence's certificate can substitute the qualifying of practicing activities outside their country.

Now, revealing of qualifications helps us in forming the technical cadre to evaluate competence to develop our present industries, and creating other ones that are suiting export. That center also can lead us to make new industries because the wide good awareness makes us able to learn, have good experience, and also developing our realization. take the Chinese

37

Page 38: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

people as an example who were developed in industry through the acquaintance process ,even some offerers in international fair have become so afraid of the Chinese visit to their stand because they may stole their valuable invention.

We should teach our children to avoid the superficial vision for whole matters by refreshing mind to understand the reasons of their existence and the beautiful things they have. That is because refreshing mind is very important for man especially when he begins to be aged when some neurons begins to be damaged, so we should prepare mind first before any other organs since it is the motive instrument for all organs.

Directing reform in bids’ proceduresTo avoid any kind of neglect or slackness we can set some priorities for reform according to the annual imported volume and the importance of sorts; take tea, sugar and rice as an example. The reform process may reach the related authorities on bids by making special courses in order to acclimate with the new civilized way, however many of accountants and financial managers' claims that this new way is unhealthy one because they do not want to be responsible of taking any decision. So, we find that managing bids is taking very long time and when it appears it carry with it so many complicated procedures can guarantee distorted results.

We can also send the new graduates that have highly marks to advanced countries in bids fields or calling for some experts to train our bodies on reforming bids’ process. This reform could take place according to bid’s stages starting with announcing until end with receiving material to be stored in warehouses; in other words reformation has two principles the first depends on annual quality & quantity ,while the second is among the first and depends on the bid’s adopted stages. Here, we can collect some information from bidders and exhibitors local and foreign (their ideas and opinions) in order to set the new civilized system for bids that guarantee the right solutions for the present problems.

Provide material in local marketThe public sector can decrease bids’ volume and number by depending on offer and demand policy that specifies time for making up for, any commodity in market and adopting the easy manners in providing it in order to force suppliers on paying a specific price for purchasing. This is a real bid has been affirmed by consumer himself not the bid's committee that put consumer under its mercy; Here, we notice that the consumer is the one who specify the purchasing price from the foreign resources , this is one case of economic democracyThat starts with the foreign resource and ends with the final user. In this case the public sector missions are going to be so weak in controlling the commodities’ price, which most parts of their highly purchasing prices are added by reference as a result of big complication in bids’ procedures. This stage of course is helping in increasing the unemployment rate of public sector because its marketing body is unable to rival the public one, the public sector that also begins to suffer from this unemployment increasing. I want here to assure that privatization process providing the consumer materials helps in decreasing hands burden of the public sector, which has now more than 80% of people who are able to work, this process also can help in providing these materials in suitable price and highly quality as a result of the strong competition within private sector establishments.

Here, I call to modify the present adopted marketing system of the public sector by granting consumer complexes the competence practicing the commercial works with applying the

38

Page 39: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

marketing system of the European countries. This way helps in reforming the local trade of this sector in providing the suitable material (price and quality) for markets especially if we open the competition door between these complexes and private sector. We are here transfer indirectly the bids mission of some material to private sector in order to get benefit of the possible revenue in supplying the import projects that help in increasing the individual income. Now, as much we go deep in privatization the out purchasing process as the prices get decreased for customer benefit, especially that the private sector is more softness in decreasing its prices than the public one. That what we notice when the private sector announce between now and then of some kinds of discounts in order to handle the stagnancy he suffers from , and to provide the required liquidity to pay his financial obligation because this decreasing loss is better than treatment with the creditor who will distress money .

Dose the present bids achieve the wanted targets?The results of the present applied way in bid are obvious, so reforming this way has become an essential need especially that the economy as a whole is subjecting to reform process. Reforming this factor helps us in avoiding that big amount of loss that is resulted from public sector’s practicing for some commercial activities. We should practicing this type of reforming since our global fame had delayed a lot as a result of adopting not the scientific ways in making bids.

The first thing we should try to reform is shorten the bid’s presented guarantee period, just from opening the technical offers until the appearance of the last results (only 45 days). We can also subject the lowest price five offers for technical studying and canceling the decided session ; every company here presents its last price after acknowledging of the global prices to avoid any surprise at final session when companies starts to decrease their prices in unnatural way . I call official to make a small calculating process about the happen loss in local and foreign currency because of adopting the present procedures of bids, these sums that are very useful for achieving new developmental projects and arise the production energy of factories. So, why we do not reform these procedures and putting down one of the most important factor of waste?

The proper cure is not relating to state alone, but we all should adopt the bid manner in getting our needs in order to get the best things in quality and price. Therefore, reforming bids’ procedures is not less important than the guiding policies that are adopted to decrease of all kinds of expenses. We should improve this bid’s manner and connect it with local production by supporting it with new industries and improve the productive situation of the present ones depending on the previous bids’ information. Finally, I think we are living in a circle , we start reforming the bids’ manner that is reforming for economy, then we use the results of that reforming to reform the economy as a whole; this is because economy is just a joined connected rings and each one is completed the other.

The second chapter

1- Education: It is a mean for instilling in the new information in the brain, and it is specified for addressing the mind, but we have to distinguish between two essential things that are: is the mind of the newborn baby empty completely at delivery or birth? Alternatively, is there any information that emerges with the birth of the mind and come into being at the formation of the fetus in the womb? We can attribute that to the heredity factors, the matter which makes the mission of the education as we said: implanting the new information that modify and correct these hereditary factors to be agreed with the current, technical and civil development, and the question in this place is: is the purposeful education for correcting the hereditary customs has harm despite of its difficulty of the directed education to insertion new information? I think that the two are on the same level of the importance, and most of the time , the goodness of inserting new information and its quality benefit the two cases at the same time , because , it corrects the hereditary data via the belief of the educated person that it is the way which must be followed and applied , consequently , it is the education that has to address the mind in the first place and has to be studied where the methods , ways and the material possibilities , and its ability to form the perfect contentment particularly when the education connects with the economy .

As a result of this , we notice that the resent study relay firstly on : the revealing of the hereditary acquisitions, then the main characteristics as the degree of the cleverness as well as the presence of mind and the ability of learning , for the benefit of its good storing of the economical improvement , especially ,when we can connect between them and the economical developmental plans in addition to the policies and educational methods, therefore, the brain is the base that supplies with the subjects that we can through it to understand the others. Also, it makes the scientific subjects throughout his exploration to the various factors and the materials that surround it and which the latter devotes to its advantage.

Furthermore, science has its advantages and its disadvantages, and the question here: is the science that man instructs is beneficial in all its sides or it is at Least has given it protection that defends it from harm which may exposes it as a result of using this science in bad sides? How many wicked psyches push their owners to spend huge sums on the science that causes the damages to human beings! but the human being strays in science domains where he uses it in a vicious way , by that he destroys what the science has offered to it as a benefit , thus , science has offered to man the useful nourishment, means of transportation , advanced medicine , strong economy and comfortable residence , this on the one hand , however , the ungrateful man uses all what he reached at from the explorations to crush the nations that are less civilized than him , and a good evidence on this is what the civilized countries behave at the present time towards posing an economical colonization on the countries that refuse the entrance to Globalization, which they call for it instead of heading to the economical cooperation that enable these countries from confronting the globalization in a right way !

40

Page 41: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

One of these adopted measures is not letting these countries to use the new technology via supplying the manufactured countries to it with raw materials and fundamental information that are needed for manufacturing the sets and developing them, so, the backward countries must follow a new scientific policy that can be with the passage of time to fulfill scientific acquirements which enable it at least to pose its presenceon the world map. from these policies , the gradual replacement of education methods according to quality , manner , and quantity on the basis of what is applied in the enormous industrial countries , no shame of that but with the protection of our national constants that are practiced through only one book which is studied in addition to other subjects , besides , this book has to express plainly and lovely as the style of the stories , series , lectures and plays , the purpose behind that is a lot of students feel with boredom from their reading of the nationalistic books for following the complex philosophical style as well as the repeating the same information that are mentioned in it , as a result of that , the education nationality must not contradict with knowledge and the current scientific acquisitions , and the ignoring of the civilized world is considered a waste time.

Therefore , we have to take what others have arrived at and interact with our acquired information in order to form a prefect scientific base which be the foundation towards perfect scientific reasoning for a gradual moving to start with the application of the intellectual creativeness . Therefore, it is recommended to execute the competition between the educational authorities on all levels Such as the nursery school , high school education , universities and high studies on the level of bachelor , master's degree , doctorate , professor and the academy , consequently , we need a scientific emulation on condition that the competitors undertake that their scientific competitive merchandises must be good ones and applied in the markets of the urban world , this means the markets of the seven countries that are great in their industries ; in other words , the scientific methods that are used in the nurseries , schools and universities are the same which are used in these seven countries concerning the followed principles, until we own scientific researches center that qualify us to improve our scientific methods according to our subjective scientific abilities, and it is truly a response to those who face this idea under the pretext of losing the education subjectivity.

The frank answer here to this confrontation is that we can fortify the student nationally within various modes that may be outside the medium of the scholastic education this on the one hand , on the other hand , is the nationality fulfilled by the scientific and civilized backwardness of the world ? but it is achieved by the economical strength that could not be gotten except for following the new scientific means , the ones that have more importance are : The scientific research and the mental creativity. Therefore, we must release the education freedom within a neutral scientific observation on the level of the education and on the ground of the interaction of our Private scientific establishments with the foreign ones , moreover , I refer herein to the necessity of commitment these institutions to execute their scientific methods , more than that , to be free of any advertising or preaching the concepts of the nations that follow them .

Free education:In respect of the weakness of the annual income regarding each person , most of the working people are laborers and employees at government , the government has suggested the application of the policy that subdues all the private schools to its management ; with making the education free of charges to all people concerning the Public schools with not considering that there is a class of people which has a specific income that enables it to pay the wages of

41

Page 42: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

the education , regarding the education policies and its methods can not agree with the needs of the economical , various , current and futuristic sectors on the ground of the realistic view to distribute the employment as well as the conditions or the plan that is arranged for redistributing to suit with the development needs which the cultured scientific staffs seek for it .In addition , we do not contemplate in the fitness of the educational courses for achieving what we aspire to , and what are the principles and means that we have to work with them for improving and modifying it . it is better to resort to the amounts investment that are gained , and using them in developing the education level as a response to the questions or raisings that are above mentioned .

Therefore, it is better to start as quick as possible to change the educational courses regarding the nursery school, the kindergarten and the elementary schools and following the policy of modification or additions according to the prerequisite subjects that are still learned in the high schools , preparatory and universities ,besides , the rehabilitation the teaching staff and opening qualifying centers that are supplied with teachers from the graduated students from the universities of the seven industrial countries , and we dare to say : that we have to import some of the teaching staff members if we can not get it , so our essential aim is to improve the educational movement in a perfect manner .

Education & the individual trends:At the time when the need of man to intellectual nurture that is not less important than the material nourishment because the latter develop the mental nurture, to say, that we can not accept at the present time that science is faraway from our improved, changed and social life, especially that the science becomes one of the means which can be employed to the benefit of the society as well as achieving its aims.

Accordingly, we have to scrutinize in an important relation, which is the sort of science and its quantity in the nature of man mind that we nurture with science to give its fruits according to the individual as well as the society , and it is complex matters with the complexity of man nature particularly the nature of his mind ; that the computer Scientists evaluate it to store the information insomuch as a big building that contains many flats and rooms which are arranged where the human mind can organize the information that gets through its long life .From here, we can notify the clear and stable relation between the increase of stored information size in mental terms and what results from interactions between them , when there is either an advantage or disadvantage against the society and between the scientific reform , thus , from the priorities of the teacher is to expose the contents of the brain that he wants to implant the science information in it as the situation of the individual that wants to buy a computer set. in this case he must put specific features previously in order to perform the goal of purchasing the computer set , but the difference here is that the human computer does not like the automated computer which the user control it without considering the advantage of the computer , on the contrary , it is purchased to execute an interest from one side , and it is a changed state when dealing with the human computer it means the human mind because there is a mutual intellectual interaction between the human computer which is the mind and the user that is the master .

Moreover, you can notice the distinction in specification the aims between the use of the common computer and the human one ,where the sole beneficiary is the computer user in a situation which the common computer was used by the man , while the benefit that the user or the teacher wishes for the human mind or the human computer is possessed by the one who carry this computer ; in addition to the beneficiary of the society around him , where the

42

Page 43: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

society consists of a group of individuals , so every thing the teacher teaches for the individual is in its turn reflected on the society positively , besides , we can see that the harmony of the advantage of the individual with the advantage of the society , this imposes upon the teacher to seek for exploring the inclination of the learner and his desires as can as possible and responding to it in order to achieve the perfect benefit from it for himself as well as for the society.

Hence, the importance of qualifying the teacher in a correct way appears, whoever, his preparation can not be executed throughout the accustomed courses but we have to look at what is applied in the developed countries in this domain because the preparing the teachers is an important linkage for qualifying a generation that is cultured in terms of civilization, and I concentrate on the word (civilized) where the culture has at the present degrees , the one who is called illiterate or uneducated at a certain degree of culture , then this feature describes the one that is less educated because of the civilized development which demands a high level of science and knowledge , this means that the scientific levels which we were boasting of them , they became nothing on the universal level , and we have not to praise our science as well as knowledge after we put it for comparison between an employer who lives in our country and the counterpart that lives in one of the civilized countries , as a result of the comparison we get a lesson for knowing the way that helps us to improve ourselves via developing the standard of living so that we demand a standard of living without the necessary effort for reaching this aim , and how odd is to blame the cause of delaying our living on the government ! Knowingly, that we are the pillars of the state as well as the affecting economical instruments, and we must not blame it but we have to help the businessmen in the government as well as to cooperate with them in constructing the way for reaching via it to our intended purpose.

I do not think that those persons are going to stay behind for cooperation with us if we are able to persuade them scientifically about the fitness of our reformed economical point of view that is linked with the correction of the education policy that is considered inseparable part from the economical reformed policies, besides, the knowledge is the essential part in the developing of every domain in our social life and that the economics occupies the whole fields in our social life. so , the economical reform can not be performed unless we mind with science and to devote the science for the economics and vise versa . Further, when we invest our knowledge in our economics then we can obtain the material abilities that can be employed in the scientific researches which need to billions of dollars and it is what we notice in the great industrial countries, where Germany has invested its business as well as its experiences in improving its economics after it loses its material abilities during the second world war and it invests its remains of experiences , sciences and knowledge to rebuild its collapsed economics. moreover , we notice that it becomes among the creditor countries of the developing countries in addition , it has debts of the collapsed Soviet Union that are estimated in eight or four milliard dollars , over and above , what is paid of big amounts for the allies for disposing of the second world war effects and the most important consequence is the division of the Germans to two parts : a western section as well as an eastern one , this means that it restores its unity via its science that secures the huge sources for returning the glory and existence of the Germans .

Hence, we reach to the strong relation between the science as well as the honor of the national and the country, where, we can get by it on the necessary material to strengthen the national entity and it is the supporting entity for the national stances as well as the made agreements between the counties.

Thus , I want to divide the education sorts according to the various developmental plans a good example of this is the agriculture in its various kinds , and we can start since the tenth class concerning the students that have the agricultural inclinations and desires , in addition , we have to connect the science with the labor where we must to make the labor is the motive for the science , to say , the person who thinks of the benefit of the knowledge for him in terms of material matters is the one who is more enthusiastic for the science , besides , I want to assure that the kind of the new programs have become adapted with the tendencies more than what it is the case in the old courses , I intend that most of the students have been stricken by frustration when they inter the institutes or the universities who think that these courses suit their trends as well as their wishes , but after that they have been surprised that the content of their trends differ from the content of these courses and their ways and this is what we can call the delving into specialization and this is what the Neo methods aim to. An excellent evidence of that is that the students who fail in institutes which they have joined on the basis of their desire, they themselves have achieved a success when they joined other institutes which teach courses but with different ways and methods. Knowingly, the beginning of concern with the practical scientific side will set up a revolt in the economical reform.

Furthermore , each scientific theory remains mere ink on paper unless it proves its trueness scientifically , however , the theoretical methods are similar to wordiness and they forms an obstacle that prevents the change process , as a result , each science results from a labor develops as well as implants in the minds , and that is what we have noticed by increasing the use of the audiovisual aids in the schools and the universities as well as the various economical organizations , this means that the science corrects and supports the economical reforms , and what is said about the agriculture is also said about the industry as well as the commerce an every profession that contributes in securing the continuity of man's life in a right manner .

Education and society:Some of us think that the education is limited to the schools , institutions and universities it means the educational centers only , but actually there is a big school which is the society school !so man that could not be lucky to learn in the educational centers , he can learn by libraries , lectures , forums as well as reading the magazines, books, newspapers and from seeing of the cultural and scientific subjects that are presented via television ; Furthermore, theaters in general have an influential role that we must not forget because they are the lifelike and the articulating vision which can be through it to express the tragedy or the gladness of the victory.

Therefore, the popular education is as important as the systematic and scientific education that can be achieved through the scientific institutions. According to my own opinion, the culture and information ministry was created for executing this mission after censoring and guiding the journalistic, theatrical, television and broadcast programs, where man lives in a continual school, this way of interaction makes the national in touch with the external world, but we can direct the common people to the interesting with the public culture via information media in addition to the advertising aids. so we make them a mean and a tool to motivate the ideas and directing them to a certain purpose , for example , If we want to expose the injuries of the smoking , then we clarify through a profile the situation of the lungs and tracheas of a smoker and in comparison with another person that does not smoke as well as we concern about explaining the medical evils that he suffers from it as a result of

44

gathering the nicotine on the walls of the trachea and the lungs with appearing the symptoms of dyspnea.

In addition to a third person that enjoys with money which he spends for developing his scientific and healthful life in stead of spending it on the smoking ; besides , the righteousness of the individual leads to the goodness of the society and the latter leads in its turn to remove the harms from the limited income owners . what is said about the continual propaganda of the harms of smoking; can be said about other matters, and that we can raise the level of the popular culture via using the way of the simple scientific exposition in the advertisings that we make for marketing the consumptive commodities, that are made for man, and he must prepare himself by it.

hence we see that we can use the process of the marketing in spreading the public culture , so instead of implication the propaganda texts what is interesting as well as responding to the man's emotional desires , then we can add ways and means that are stimulated for the popular culture as finding solutions to scientific , economical, and social problems through valuable prizes, consequently, we can stimulate the minds that are paralyzed to find persuasive and suitable solutions because it consists the opinion of the masses, and it is a neutral opinion that man must respect and evaluate it; and it expresses the consultation because it is mentioned in the Holy Koran.

Hence, I want to illustrate the present relation between the unity of the society and its developing as well as the degree of the culture of its individuals, where the culture can create a domain for brotherhood and loving in addition to the appearance of creativity and innovation in a society that prevail in it the love for culture particularly the popularity; the latter is what we perceive when some people stand in the civilized countries in front of the inns for purchasing their needs or as they ride the transportation means or waiting for a friend or sitting down in the halls of the hospitals or in the clinics . Therefore, they do not spend their time uselessly, whoever, they exploit their time in reading a book that they choose by themselves and according to their inclinations as well as their desires.

Hence, I want to emphasize on an important matter that is the tremendous quantities variety of the wishes and interests makes the commissions and the cultural organizations in a confusing state , the matter which adhere to setting up a variousness of the purposeful cultures where each one chooses the education that he desires , this means , that the cultured authorities depend on writing the simple , useful and exciting books to illuminate the ways of knowledge and choosing the multiple subjects for various ages in addition to quantities that match with the available statistics of the kinds of the tendencies , so that , everyone whatever he reaches of the age and whatsoever the inclinations that he has and in any place in his country must find what satisfy his desires and tendencies by buying a good book , to take note of that the man who is cultured publicly in most times is better for use scientifically than the one who gains his education in the university because the popular culture is resulted from the practical application and from the way of complex life especially when the national educates himself with the profession that he practices by purchasing the books which suit his career ; or attending the lectures and forums that has a link to his profession , or when he penetrates deeply into his career and moves from the stage of less experience to a stage that is more practical and this reflects on him an appropriate income and the latter is what ' we aspire to in our life , in all cases , the factor of the cultural ambition of the individuals stays so weak because of the lack of the income that he suffers from it , the matter which can be overcame by connecting the cultural and cognitive development with money , because , each

one completes and supports the other , besides , I want to hint that the popular culture is a good way as well as leading to either scholastic or institutional or academic culture.this is what we notice from the interest of the laborers that gain the subjective education via joining to schools and universities that enable them to enrich their personal culture with the scientific cultures, and actually they are more worth to the national economy, because they are the tool that can direct the production ways towards the pursued aims especially in terms of the universal status definition of the producer.

The inclination to education:Education was fulfilled by force and compulsion means in view of the fact that the learner has the capacity for getting the distinguished stature in the society on the suitable material level , consequently , the previous learning policy has encouraged to creating social ranks on the basis of gaining the scientific degrees , even the domain of the ranks has expanded in the learners classes , some of them has a high level in the society because of studying the medicine or the engineering or another specialization regardless of the desire or the inclination that stimulates the owner of the certificate or the scientific degree to study the course that belongs to it , particularly , that the society entirely does not consider the desire or the trend as a base in putting the scientific policies in different levels , while the developed countries have started the delving into the interest in the knowledge which is based on the man's need .

So , there are the inclinations , desires , knowledge and the need , all of them form one chain that motivates man towards education , perhaps the start of this chain is the need. In addition , the education is the foundation for expansion the curiosity and the latter secures the obtaining of the knowledge , further , via the delving into the knowledge , man can specify the tendencies as well as the necessary desires for performing the creativity process due to that man does not create in a work which does not like , consequently , the economical researchers must concentrate in their interests on knowing the inclinations as well as the instincts since the presence of the child in his mother's womb and till reaching the youth stage or the labor age , which starts usually in the civilized countries at the age of seventeen , the Young man begins to move from a stage to another in the learning and the creativeness according to the kind and the way of the knowledge that the youth has been nourished by it.Naturally , the matter is not simple ; and it needs to create specialized , scientific centers that can be identified by it on the inclinations , desires and the instincts as well as the acting for securing the harmony and the conformity between them and the needs of the futuristic and the current government of the experienced work force in a scientific as well as practical way , besides , the universities students can be subscribed by studying the psychology in this domain , where they acquire duplication feature , first : the useful practice for themselves as well as for their country , second : opening the way of working from the very beginning of their graduating and entering the battlefield of life , furthermore , it is useful in this sphere to work on modification the methods of the psychology and sociology that are currently taught in the universities as well as the institutes on the grounds of the sort of the practical life that they are going to practice it , subsequently , we shall teach the psychology that connects the industrial , commercial and medical domains . for sure , this will determine in terms of quantity and quality with cooperation with the researches centers that are specially created for the manner of using the work force for benefiting of the desires as well as the inclinations whether with exploring it or via developing it .

Education surveillance:With regard to the fact that we call for improving the education level because of its suffering that its methods and programs are not suitable for the economical improvement planes this is on the one hand , as well as to the scientific international development in the different fields such as the economics and the sociology this is on the other hand , further , it must associate this call the interest in this correctional process step by step from the beginning of studying the reality in its all sides ; then knowing the extent of its connection to the civilized universal situation , where this study enables us to depend on the essential base for launching from it to put a gradual , correctional and scientific plane that renews the educational courses which are demanded for application in a temporal way according to successive times.

Naturally, all of this can not be executed randomly but it is achieved by scientific researches center that is specialized in this complicated process, this center is supervised by qualified and specialized teachers as well as they have extended validities that authorize them to know all matters and issues that are connected to the scientific reform, in addition, it has a strong relation with the universal and scientific establishments. consequently , the suggested educational researches center is the one which supervises universities , schools and institutes in terms of its applying of the scientific criterion that is determined by it , furthermore , the latter ( the center ) can give scientific degrees to the graduates of these institutes on the ground of the ability and the scientific status that the scientific establishments privilege , and it is an important matter where the jobs are firstly granted to the scientific establishments graduates of the first class , as well as , the scientific and material grants and giving the opportunities for the scientific researches , all of them give the priorities to the scientific establishments of the first rate , and it is one of the lovable means either for the scientific establishments or for the learners in embarking upon applying the new scientific criteria according to the identified scientific methods by a scientific center that is universally reliable , moreover , students specify their determination in the light of their choosing of the scientific establishments that apply the correct scientific criteria .

Profession and education:Some of them may think that the practical experience is sufficient for gaining and this is what the authors as well as the ancestors have followed where they were putting their sons in the summer vacation at their friends of the different jobs as commerce and industry for filling up their times this is on the one hand , in addition to teaching them a job in order to practice it after finishing their study but during the midday , this means the separate period between the morning study period and the evening study one or afternoon to get some money for using it in securing their tools as well as their books , some of their incomes enable them to spend on themselves during the study time concerning the weakness of their parents for securing their needs in their study stage , besides , fathers were resorting to put their sons under their direct professional supervision , for instance , the merchant trains his son in his store and the industrialist exercises his son in his factory in this manner , or they teach them a profession from the very beginning of their life or when they reach an extent of their study as reaching the elementary fifth class or higher than that , where this cultural concept for the educated at the whole public is his getting the elementary certificate , so , if our industry was founded only on the experience therefore , it scarcely founds an order in the local markets.

However, this matter starts to change according to this formula whether in defying the internal market or the external one because of the start of its influence with the world through

47

Page 48: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

the exhibition or the developed mass media , especially , that our dealing with the others has become subject to the way and the size of the commodities exchange between us which guarantee our presence in the world that is based on the exchange , consequently , man becomes appreciated according to his purchasing power , this means that his humanity is connected of what he affords to the others of gifts , because this man has become an obligatory partner to so many partners on the surface of this land due to the globalization of the material civilization , whoever , it is at times a partner in the consumption and at other times a partner in the production once more a partner in finding the laws , relations and rules that govern this material relation which connects man to his fellow man via the developed means of communications .

From here ,we note that the practical experience is no more sufficient and knowledge has become necessary particularly that the limits of acquiring the necessary experience for developing the quality of productions demands the telecommunication execution with the extended customers in all the world , regarding the subjection of securing the need for the international competitive laws , where the Recognition of the others desires in our commodities is not a simple matter, and we cannot perform that by the simple professional education alone. Science has become the mean for making anything useful for other's needs especially when we notice that the volume of exports process is cover other economic activities, it the basic stone of any economy that help in increasing salary & consumption rates and also support our local currency .

So, finishing unemployment can not be applied without considering that science development of commercial organizations and foundations is very important and essential matter in this field. Therefore, we should create their special institutions and lecture halls as well, and try to build up a special center can handle the developing of each vocation especially in global marketing. This center can also prepare the economic utility of each project that any investor wants to exploit his money in; here vocation member can undertake this study's cost instead of undertaking the possible loss that may caused by any wrong or random study. Now, these organizations should perform their scientific duty by creating scientific research centers, institutions and qualification schools; they can also call for instructive and serious discussion between each vocation representatives and general authority's members in order to handle these vocations problems and obstacles.

Doing this duty by each economic center or organization will contribute effectively in succession of our economy as a whole, here I want to refer the economy feature for each individual or group that do something useful for national economy. We cannot consider any industry as representative for economy unless it has a global competition position, which is the scale for this industry success or failure. It can grant big benefits for economy by increasing the export and import' rates and consequently the consumption's rate to the level that our consumer is become equal to the one who has same qualifications in neighbor countries. Here, considering the relation between income and giving quality is very important matter in these days, which globalization that imposed by industrial countries upon development ones in order to marketing their products. So, development country should not affected by the strong information expedition about globalization, but they should form an opposed one can help all people in differentiating the useful from bad propagandas of western information.

So, we should affected by other civilizations, which ours were their starting point, but we should take notice of their attracting and shining picture that mass media impose their

48

Page 49: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

presence from morning to night. For that reason, any society sector's authorities or organization should care more about their belonging people, not only representing them in occasions and parties. They should strengthen the scientific side of the foundations' master, and contact the same global ones to evaluate the present way according to the international adopted ones. Then discuss the vocational position with vocations' masters who will not rebel against these organizations if they work for their advantages. These organizations can improve the vocations' positions through science and creation to avoid their masters a lot of finical problems by providing them industrial complexes, which help them in facing the biggest industrial companies. They can also impose some scientific conditions upon any company or factory to have special consultant in case of capital' holder has a sufficient experience in foundations' management; especially that what was classified as industrialist since ten years has become considered today- because the science development- as vacationer although his utilizing of some machines.

This is a sufficient justification for vacationers to convince that their inherited experiences have become inconvenient with customers' wishes who want many services in one commodity. Customer's perspective has become more civilizing, he grant advantages for vocational commodities considering its historical and the using value, so he wants tow target in one time to provide some economic savings relating to his income , which has become shrinking gradually . Now since different mass media try to increase the consumption rates through informing him of different sort of commodities, vacationer should concern in the same marketing ways that are adopted by his international rivals to avoid any possible kind of stagnancy. the stagnancy that may finish totally his business as a result of the depression he could feel because of losing his life fruitage in financing his commercial or industrial project, we should take care of this since child upbringing in house or school and differentiate not within different professions ; doctor profession is never less important than the textile worker or garbage collector one because society needs all of them each in his profession field , so government here should support the vocational training continually.

Learning and teaching for each ageSome people consider the education way and sort is connected with its time age, this makes the educational institutions to adopt an annual partial programs can suit yearly information according to the learner's mental perceptions. This rule has of course some exceptions, we notice some clever students who pass educational stages easily and get their scientific certificates have the normal level of clever because freezing any organ in man body will lose it its importance . So, we should supply this mind with different information in order to analyze them and consider what can suit its qualifications and tendencies; for that reason we find one student who is very good in one material meanwhile very neglectful in another one.

Here, we should recognize two important sides about the learner student: the first: the cleverness natural lines in each specific age, the second one: what are his superiority factors that distinguish him from others? We, as teachers, should consider these two sides to strengthen the scientific linkage between our educational body and other global ones especially that any job application has become consider the university or institute that graduate the job applier. So, the education body - through qualified scientific observers -should make a continuous observation upon each one abilities and cleverness because putting any student in wrong scientific position will affect his psychology and obstacle his scientific learning. this is what we notice nowadays of youth's leaving of scientific institutions on the plea that their mind are unable to recognize the scientific material hey have, the responsible authorities should reconsider this problem to find the proper solution in right time.

Meanwhile we notice that a lot of genius had left their school and learned by other means and capabilities, while our youths depend only on humble works to keep barely alive and many of them have do well in practical life when they acclimatize with some ways to acquire the wanted knowledge.

The new sciences have given each age his right of scientific evaluation even the old people who kept their scientific experiences and giving. For example observing the parliament member's behaviors in advanced country is one mission of senates ones, and I do not think that those members are young people; take Europe universities and institutions we find that each department are called in one of their professor name, this professor of course has made a lot of experiments and researches in all his day life. In Arab World unfortunately we have not yet use the scientific titles for those people who deserve to be called in although most of Arabs creators abroad have this title. Those creators have to give up their titles in their countries to have other ones that are imposed by society, which is refuse to say that some individuals have special certificate and titles.

We should know that each man has two ages : the real age and the second one is of time, so we should take in our consideration the people's real age when we count the effective minds, otherwise we may lose very valuable information that are stored in computer minds. Here, we should calcify the real ones according to mental creation if we want to get benefit of their scientific capabilities, meanwhile we can leave the muscular effort to be judged only for muscular effort and compare each one benefit on national economy as a whole.

Education nationalismThe Arabic scientific market is never less important than common Arabian market that exchange goods and commodities; here since science is the basic stone for economy, the Arabic jointly and solidity scientifically speaking can form an Arabic economy power. For that reason, I call the Arabian people to exploit their financial energies for creating scientific researches centers that aim to invest directly our wealth in order to achieve these advantages : arising the Arabian person' annual income comparing to that one in the advanced countries. We cannot achieve this without well marketing and productive progress between Arabian countries and European ones.

We can import some technologies and experts to help our centers according to our requirements and abilities because we should avoid the damaging content of our habits and traditions or modify it to suit our advantages; in other words, we should acquire science to react and even affect it because we are from the same human structure that prepare this science and get its results. Here, Arab World should get back its human experts that it exports to the advanced world, and provide them the suitable atmosphere for creation; this is the basic core that enables us to form correct scientific basis can for the essential adobe on different levels. The advanced countries have a lot of our scientists whom are so creative in different field, some of them in medicine, others in natural science ….and so many others. Let us hurry in forming the common Arabian scientific market to invest all our scientific abilities that is spreading out in all over the world.

We should arrange a productive discussion within Arabic writers, authors, scientists, mathematician, physics and chemists to form a special committee for each scientific specialty can finance its centers and researches according to each country's capabilities. We should take in our consideration that its benefits will prevail the Arab World as a whole especially that we have become the victim of the advanced countries researches' results, the best

50

example here is what the medical researches have presented from medicine or equipment so since the Arab World is the biggest customer for these inventions, we find that it is whom take over the biggest part of these inventions expenses. How lovely if our Arabic scientists can do these researches instead of these countries control of these inventions especially that they take our raw materials and manufacture them in their factories to sell them us in double prices as consumer goods. For that reason, we should exploit our youth's minds because they are the basis for country's power since our enemy scientific power is forming the biggest pressure power upon us.

We should consider well the important of education in our life since it is the mental food that supplies the other financial ones. It is not a matter of money, so people who are so poor have become nowadays have the suitable mental and financial abilities. I assured also that science is as civility source for self, it control in all our behaviors with others and consider the real social relations are the relations that depend on mutual benefit not on controlling principle. Therefore, the more science is controlling people's life, the more superior their rules and legislations will be. I also spoke about the helping factors in strengthen science and what is our role towards science and scientists? Especially in providing them the suitable comfortable atmosphere, which every mind needs to in order to be creative and deviser one.

2- The industrial vocational trainingNo doubt, that developing the vocational training on its different levels and sorts is one of the important cures for such weak economy that suffer from different kinds of unemployment. We should develop our industrial productions, meanwhile we lack the experienced hands; here how we can control this unemployment with all these export difficulties? Unemployment is coupled with the exported products' rate so whenever we have an export's deficit, the unemployment rate will increase and vice versa. We notice here the tripartite relation between exports, unemployment, local manufacturing rates by considering the growth in manufacturing the products that are able to be exported and have the largest rates of our local production stages can fallow the right way that led to control unemployment gradually.Growth in export's volume < dropping in unemployment rates.Growth in local manufacturing rates < dropping in unemployment rates.So the growth in export's volume + the growth in local manufacturing rates meet a noticeable dropping in unemployment rates. Therefore, we should try hard to increase export's rates by subjecting the export study to export research center that can study all the problems that may obstacle this process. It can also consider any new productive project by granting preference for the projects that used the biggest rates of local manufacturing stages. However, we should increase these rates for local production by manufacturing locally the imported raw materials; the best example here is: manufacturing capacitates for squeezers of citrus products of our lovely coast land. This can be applied also on the industries that have local raw material as the cotton clothes one. Some industrialists consider experience as raw material for industry and even more important, that what we notice in the countries that depend on experiences in their export as Japan that import metals for manufacturing cars and export them again, Switzerland also made a lot quantity of watches from one kilo of metal. So, we should concentrate nowadays on vocational training since our school's six class especially that our contemporary life has become depend on machine, which is cannot developed without the human mind's observation depending on this social rule " thing' maker is the best one to inform about its advantage" he is in full knowledge of the mood of improving its performance, and know also its capabilities and powers.

51

Page 52: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

We should expand the vocational training horizontally and vertically, horizontally to contain all the vocational circles and build up some institutes for house electronic set's manufacturing, other for electric engines manufacturing and other for electronic sets ….. This way enables us to create the Arabian vocational institutes as those European one to exchange missions between ours and other global ones. While the vertical one is the technological deep for each sort of industry ones in its related circle, for example developing the fans industry that is part of electric sets industry equivalently with developing the related vocational programs. It resort also to create research centers can observe the success of this drive that depend on vocational training instead of encouraging the theoretical one especially that we suffer from unemployment of university's graduators , which their number is about 70.000 students as a result of the disharmony of the educational policy in general and the vocational one in particular.

I want here to assure that vocational training can help individual on opening his way alone in case of his inability of finding a job in public sector, which has become unable to provide a real job for all people. For that reason, we should consider education as one ring of the economic ones that should be reformed especially that the free education policy has become useless. This policy deprived the poor classes from getting benefits of the financial power of other classes; this power can support and develop the educational policies that serve economy, which is considered the most important factor in acquiring knowledge and actuating mind towards creation.So, we should couple training with income rates by making it serve man's advantage through provide the coherence between wishes & tendencies and individual's financial benefit as this form:

Hopes, wishes and tendencies ــــــــ needs and using them in the right placeـــــــ income that is provided for man as a result of vocational training.

So, the one who master his work can get salary that provide for him good living standard. According to this principle we should speak about the psychological relief that is required for habilitation process especially in getting fast the boss's advices for improving the project's economic performance, which is noticed in production's ability on global competition. So, quality, price and good management are the obtained benefits from motion from saving data theoretically to apply them practically; in other words getting ride of considering the certificate paper to be the livelihood source, and forgetting what this certificate has made in its holder mind considering his personal initiation and the living standard he wish for. I remember here this proverb "science without certificate is much better than certificate without science". For that reason, salary's inability to provide an acceptable living standard make this certificate's holder one of those covered unemployed people, and make the society, which adopt the free education policy and hiring all graduators , lives in vicious circle because its reliable scientific production is considered a burden not blessing on it.

Now, this training way is considered just an improving for nation's position no more no less in such a scientific competition atmosphere within civilized countries. So making not a hurry scientific reform will increase the civilized distance between us and other civilization. The ancestors used to place their children at free vocation's masters in school vocations period, this way graduate most successful vacationers who practicing nowadays efficiently most our economic establishments' management. This way guarantee for them a master and made them depend on themselves in providing suitable living standard; they were indirectly help society in saving the huge sums in hiring people in unreal works , which form a financial burden and

52

Page 53: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

break down the effective hands. I notice this side clearly when I visited some governmental departments where employees spent their time in exchanging visiting and having some tea or coffee or doing their private works. We can notice here the weakness of cooperation between society and individual for improving his living standard contrary to old societies where individual used to resort for getting experiences and knowledge whatever his economic or social circumstances are.

One of the old industrialists had imported a new factory for manufacturing a cloth ribbon used in clothes industry. He hired an experienced master who is working in one of our textile factory; this man proved that he can replace the European engineer in setting up new factory. This is only one example of many cases that made the Syrian textile industry a very successful and special one, but we now suffer from the export' weakness as a result of our depending on personal solutions. So, having some experienced engineer in this industry is not sufficient for building up a civilized industry , we need the skillful experienced hands that can understand all information and make it as a stored memory in order to be able to interact with this changing and unstable life. This means that habilitation process should start with this class to be the model in technical development one, then move to the ordered body that is the wide base for interaction orders with stored information; take as an example the information that any teacher tell his students about, the acceptance of it is differ according to each student's cultural store .

So, we badly need to special culture for workers in each vocation as our need for its leader, for that reason I call for expansion of vocational training quantitatively and qualitatively to be not the obligatory resort for those who can not harmonize with traditional science studying. Vocational training is aping mind for motive abilities for producing special work that has three benefits in one time ( foe society, worker and investor )., while the benefit of traditional one is connected with unclear future especially when it neglect the relation of science with economy. I call also to encourage vocational training by treating his certificate with all respect and grant it special characteristics such as higher salary, or some taxes' discount since it is source for bringing taxes. we should consider that the tax that is paid by worker is for his limited income, but collecting taxes from work' master is considered more equity; for that reason freeing worker from tax will increase work's master net profits according to the worker's exerted efforts for improving his living standard especially that he feels aggrieve because government is sharing him his small loaf of bread, which is suiting his income's volume.

The relation between scientific methods and developmental programsSince science has become control our social activities and economy is the factor that can advance our social and economical level, we should -as first step- restudy our scientific methods according to the global civilization concept and our economic advantage. Here, we should take in our consideration the developmental plans that study our economic reality, which is in reform.

So, there are three basic factors for reforming our scientific road: the adopted scientific level in advanced countries, the present economic position, and finally the economic developmental plans. The previous discussion is related to the adopted educational methods in our country, but for public scientific reform we should subject all our economic activities to the civilized style because reform cannot be applied without science. Here, habilitation the

53

Page 54: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

bank's technical cadre and finding another qualified one needs science, opening common banks to open the way for foreign ones and creating stock market needs science, marketing the accumulated products and arising our local production's rates needs science, supporting our economy to stand against globalization that affect our present economic position needs science, and also investing our resources and inner wealth needs science.

So, science has become the most distant importance in this life, and public science or culture is never less important than normal scientific cultivation, which is completed through schools, institutions and universities. This is the public way for unliterary, which is national duty that should have special strategy as our concern in reevaluation the traditional education in schools and universities. The best example of general culture's influences upon medial cultural levels is getting its holders on rewords when they are making special intelligence test and for the capabilities that some mothers show in upbringing their children. We should extremely focus on this subject since the doubtful cultures have become penetrating our houses through space's means.

Here, we should supply Arabic people with the defensive cultures against these enemy ones that aim to the mothers who do not have the chance to complete their high study; we can depend on symposiums, special lectures on different levels. On children in park level for example, we can make it a source of joy and culture as well by arranging some aiming games that plant scientific thoughts in their minds. When child play in water and dust , we can put for him a vessel that has two branches to make him conclude that the water level in one branch will definitely be rise to the level in which the other branch stop at; here, he can understand naturally a very important principle in physics. There are a lot of cases like this one that open the child mental faculties and facilitate his capacity of scientific theories. Here appears the importance of economy when we recognize in advance child's wishes and abilities that we need for building up the future economy.

Now, public culture can expand to prevail all what we call the high cultures' support, furthermore we can consider scientific rehabilitation as one of public culture factor since it is handled out of usual educational ways. Present economy's production has become unable to rival the global ones and economy in general has become unable to provide for its people an acceptable income. So, worker's rehabilitation has become in this case an essential necessity that we cannot manage without. There are so many cases that could be under name of public culture that we need in the present cultural conditions that the secondary certificate's holder has become among public culture.

So, where are we in these present civilizations? Where is our science level comparing with these civilized ones? And finally what is our scientific economy position in this rash science?

3- HabilitationHabilitation means make anything prepared for doing specific mission, but rehabilitation means reforming habilitation for changing a position that qualifier has prepared to. For that reason this process is very important one, but it cannot change any of the qualifier's wishes, hopes, and mental &bodily abilities. so, from the beginning we should choose the right person for right position because the random choice will make this process very complicated and expensive one especially if that position ( economically speaking) very sensitive and essential. The damaging here will not only affect this person or vocation, but also the society as a whole, so there are three case that could be adopted for applying habilitation's process: firstly studying the present qualifications of different economic sectors which means

54

Page 55: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

redistributing hands and employees that are dissenting this rule, secondly studying the present abilities of each employee then setting a suitable standard to know what we can accept of this qualifications which means adding new preparations that accompany with the global position of technology, thirdly connecting these process with the educational polices and developmental plans. I will speak about these factors in details:

The qualifications' studying: we can apply this way through adopting the priority principle of the annual works number, this principle of every productive project, and also for the used raw materials in its production. What are for example the most important industries that have big annual work number that depend on local raw material like cotton textiles? We start by habilitating the technical cadre of this industry by arranging a contest for the textile institutions' graduators to send the winners to take a knowledge studying courses in the forerunner countries in this field, in addition to send some missions from secondary and elementary schools' students to study abroad at the expense of government and private economic foundations. Those people will be the basic core in doing this studying by making a comparison between available qualifications and the minimum level of the needed one for producing a rival production. Those specialists should find a correct and strong bond production quality and qualifying rank of different hands or management class.

Now, this core can prepare a schedule for each vocation contain all the qualified vacationers with isolating those who do not have this characteristic because unqualified worker is considered an obstacle in habilitation road since he affects production's quality, power and performance. After this isolation process we can classify unqualified workers to ranks according to the work's sort that suit their capabilities, does this sort is available or not? If it is available, it will help a lot in using those vocationally isolated workers in the industries that suit their capabilities. Here we should be very clear, how could we use them in such works that suit their weak capabilities and give them salaries higher that what they deserve? we can solve this problem through the relation between quality& salary and global competition positions , we can reform the work's capabilities then limiting the wanted one for each commodity; here we should not be afraid of the transitional unemployment that may resulted from applying this rule of choosing the right person for right position.

We come now to the second stage of creating major institutions for each industry alone, some of them depending on training, other related to wanted habilitation factors, some connected with rehabilitation to modify special industries that are subjected to new global conditions. The submitters are subjected to scientific special centers can specify the scientific level of each work, so taking in consideration all these factors in creating these institution is helping us in choosing the qualified masters and also the required technical cadre for these works. So, the technical institutions can play an important role in providing hands locally or even on export level and facilitate the relation between hands and habilitation which is very strong and solid one.

We should not forget to supply these institutions with informatics means to allow each work's master to know each qualifier or student required information, and he can enter to the web site of these institutions to get his demand from hands or ask this site to search on some hands who have special specification he wants them to have. He can ask it to provide for him special technical cadre for near future projects to give work to these projects in their experimental stages. So, these habilitation institutions can play double role: handling reality and future. Here grow the relation between reforming developmental plans and habilitating institutions because we cannot execute any reforming plan without qualified human factor,

55

Page 56: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

the same case for developmental plans that need human hands to be executed. These hands may be not in present generation so we have to prepare a special one for them depending on the sort of these plans and their required time.

So, we can adapt the choosing of births with the suitable habilitating programs within the temporal periods that agree with works and required periods for executing each part of developmental plans ones. We should notice that habilitation or rehabilitation should be applied according to priority principle since we are severely suffer from the weakness of qualified hands comparing with global qualification level.

The society perspective of habilitation or rehabilitationThe society's view point about habilitation is unreal one, he consider each individual who has sufficient experience able to do his job properly. This individual especially aged one is afraid of the accusation of his unloving for acquiring knowledge or inability of understanding scientific development if he accepts the attending of habilitation courses. So, we should change this phenomenon's principle to be normal and natural by making any worker feels that he is part and parcel of working economic power, and the growth of unemployment rates is resulted from a lot of workers' refusing of rehabilitation principle. These are the two essential factors that improve their marketing productive and industrial performance.

The authorities and organization should prepare for enlightenment drives of the importance of habilitation process before starting in it because the psychological state of the worker is helping him a lot in accepting or refusing this process. Here, the best authority can convince him is the authority that is in responsible for him due to the continuous coexistence between this authority and him. It can prescribe the best habilitating cure for him depending on his different human's elements (habits, traditions, behavior, experience and culture) and comparing these elements with work's requirements, then comparing the results with the results we can get from one worker who practice the same vocation and sell the rival commodities in international markets. In other words strengthen the relation between product's quality and habilitation level to earn the customers' support for our point of view about these habilitation programs that provide good commodities in cheap price.

The habilitation human body is of course the most important factor in this process because the clever teacher can enlist and attract his students' minds. So, we should organize a direct mental contact through symposium and lectures, and indirect one through books and mental products. I want here to mention the envy and jealousy idea, which are very useful psychological factor in exciting the undertaking of habilitation process especially when somebody envy others for their living standard, but he will get ride of this characteristic when he realize that their clever and efforts are the basic reasons for improving their living standard.

The information's role in habilitationInformation is created for man's serving by directing him to right direction of revealing things' characteristics before using them and also to inform each party's opinion and idea to the other one depending on this right rule that say "our and other opinions ".

Now since habilitation process is very essential for handling the human factor in production process, I think it is on of information's duty in all its sorts and forms to fulfill his mission in

56

Page 57: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

this field. Information can prove (in number) how the qualified worker can produce better than products in quality and price than the unqualified one. Compare two workers, one in Syria while the other in Germany, they are doing the same job, but the Germanic worker is getting much higher salary than the Syrian one; we notice that the commodity's price of the Syrian one is much lower than that Germanic commodity's price. The basic motive of course for getting such as this salary is the financial one , which is encouraging the Germanic worker on learning and acquiring experiences to win the global competition with our produced commodities.

Technologies and habilitationThe public sector systems in our countries, which are tied by hiring all people, make the difference very little between him and the machine he gives work to. I mean all the experiences he get either by special courses or practical training by this machine's experts, all these experiences have become as part of these machines. The worker has become unfortunately practicing his work without any mental creative that is very necessary for carrying on the vocation's civilized development, and one of the effective reasons on production's quality. Here most of habilitation staff afraid of this worker's turnabout to be as machine one (Robot) which mean two machines, one is leader and the other is driven, but we should exclude this rule to get better production can support our economic position.

Since man is the one who modify machine's specifications, we should modify the specification of the man who gives work to it. However, modification the machine's specification is much easier than man's ones. So, we should modify man's specifications then ask him to create new production means other wise this case will be as the one who put the horse after the carriage, which is impossible case if we want to produce a rival development production. In addition to that we should observe to gravity of lasting acclimatization between worker and machine which is in this case control his mind. We can handle this case by the continuous habilitation that grant worker the controlling spirit on machine to subject it to reform and developing factor. We should not also forget the benefit of social side of practicing habilitation process on every vocation's workers; we can notice the benefits when we see the youths' fire for vocational training after they realized the necessity of thinking scientific minds in our contemporary industrial life as we consider other sciences like engineering, medicine, physics and chemistry.

Therefore, the responsible foundation of vocational training should impose justice and right conditions for accepting any person for practicing any vocation or for improving his financial position through his disposition for subjection to required habilitation processes.

The habilitation continuationSince there is a direct relation between habilitation and development, we always find development in any man's life side by side with continuous habilitation. The question here is: how can we achieve this purpose since it is very expensive and need high experience especially that we are subjected to financial pressures? To answer this question we can begin with the practical and scientific coexistence with world as a whole by Internet, manmade satellites and marketing men's report & management's opinion.

All these factors have an important role in knowing the needed time for rehabilitating worker with acknowledging the importance and reasons of this rehabilitation. Now is it resulted from the same factor? Or does it result from surrounding or from emergency circumstances? So,

57

Page 58: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

considering all these factors before starting the process of rehabilitation is more important than the process itself because the wrong one damages the present and widespread industry. So, we should habilitate everything to make this process as all an accepted one, here we should choose the person whom its tendencies agree with the vocation he practices.

I think we should separate the rehabilitation institution from habilitation ones since these institution's students differ in their mental, experience and bodily abilities, and we should support the educational body with imported experiences for sending the hands, which we want to modify their experience, abroad to be trained on international technology that we can not provide locally.

Habilitation and research centersThe only mean for our work's success is subjecting them to scientific research; people from times of old consider that studying matters well before judging them is a wise action. So, we should develop our mind's functions through body's caring , as they said before" the healthy mind is in healthy body" in addition to that discussion any matter within minds make any resulted discussion free from personal tendencies and wishes. So, scientific research center, which must embody the experienced people in habilitation field, should be supplied with all the required scientific instruments in addition to lecture hall, sports club and educational aids according to the functions that it wants to fulfill. This center can arrange some contests within each commercial or industrial foundation's workers and also some lectures about improving production performance. All these actions help in habilitation process especially when we make worker's promotion is subjected to offering some useful information for strengthen the foundation's position in the global competitive markets.

Here we can connect this center with international ones to exchange the different habilitation experiences and to get some practical and scientific information that make worker harmonize with the new technical development. Any worker- through this center- can modify machine, however he should be convinced of the rehabilitation process in order to achieve the wanted success, so this habilitation program's creator should have the ability of understanding the human soul to be able to understand and interact with it. So, this center should have some psychologists to reveal the psychological side of the submitters for rehabilitation process.Now since we still in the first step of this process, we should connect this center with other scientific ones. This way helps us in hurrying our economy reform because this connection reveal the weakness that we suffer from, especially habilitation the banking opening either by rehabilitating the present employees or habilitating the new graduators of related universities or institutions. This is in fact a priority that should have more care than other priorities in position habilitation considering that vocational training can start after ordinary student getting the public important information; in our country the six class is considered this level, especially for students who do not wish for learning, but have some hopes and interests, which we can use in industrial life if we habilitate them well.

Unfortunately jurisdiction circle has become smaller than before and so many branched vocations appear, so the necessity of coordination within all parts correctly enable us of achieving our target which is reforming the total starting from reforming parts according to each part's role and each role complete the other ones. We can simile it with the orchestra that each musician plays on his own musical machine to form with others a harmonic tune , the scientific center here should provide the harmony between habilitation ring and other economic ones, in other words the center has two role: organizing habilitation process from inside then organizing it with other economic sectors.

58

Habilitating the final customerThe habilitation process as we said is very complicated and hared one, it starts from the day of born till it reach to the final customer for commodities . Marketing and sales' men relationship with this final consumer is very important to inform him about the product's importance. So, habilitation process should be eternal and continuous, this continuity should depend on the democracy through the lovely mutual discussion, otherwise this process will give negative results when each group cannot fulfill the other's requirements.

Habilitating any consumer can be reached by two channels: the first one is the direct habilitation, which fulfilled through direct connection within specific time according to each commodity's need and volume. It could also cover other ways as local fairs or participating in foreign ones in case we wish to export. This work could cover also the factories and houses from the inside especially production means or engineering equipment or sets by sending the factories' experts to those houses for training them well on the perfect use of these equipment that provide good results.

Here, we notice the importance of correlation between the benefits that final consumer wishes and the process of preparing him for using commodity that could be one means of purchasing. So, the using way could be considered is part and parcel of manufacturing process that should attach all production's parts with each others. This process should depend in advance on customers' wishes, needs and requirements especially when we connect habilitation with after sell process. These processes are carried by the marketing body since the daily contact with customer is one of the modified means for the using, which depends on customer's guidance and advices that reveal our faults in marketing.

Now, the second channel is the indirect habilitation that depends on what we offer from correct using information of commodities. In my opinion, the related part should consider the shortness and easiness in coining special bulletins that are put with commodities; these bulletins could have the P.O. Box or telephone number to make the consumer manifest his notes about these commodities. The compliant department has to answer the consumers' questions or even visit these last consumers to acknowledge their opinions and take hold of them if they technically right, this part should modify commodity's specification and presenting one as free to any consumer in order to take his final opinion before starting the big production.

This experiment could be called the democracy in the treatment between producer and customer for two group's advantages, this democracy has become presently very essential especially that consumer can find the same commodity later on and using this democracy is the best cure for reducing the negative effects on products as a result of granting consumer this right, which is in fact indirect habilitation for customers.

Informatics' system and habilitationThe informatics system is the adopted one nowadays for organizing habitation process; we can enter the special information of baby's clever and scientific & bodily qualifications since the born day. In the same way we can arrange the required industries that we want to make after twenty years, and the date of retire for different vocations workers. We can also consider + /- 10% rates for diseases or dead accidents in order to prepare the needed substitution experience and hands, in addition we can consider the raw materials development

59

since the environmental conditions have become changing and do not apply the previously specified standards or measures; finally we may enter the related relations between quality & production quantity and personal initiative and learning love of worker.

When we enter all these information in one computer program, we can get a computer observation upon capacity (its work, going back and reform) meanwhile we can reveal new fruitful productive capacity. So, we notice the importance of interaction of all these facts in one program, as these different computer programs that are used in medicine or accounting. Here, how lovely if we open special computer center for different programs in general and for economic ones in particular because the programming process is the basis in computer work. This work that is just making an interaction within all entered information for getting the results, which ordinary man need a lot of time to get them.

The family habilitationThe family habilitation is considered the most important sort of rehabilitation ones since family is the society's core, so when we succeed in preparing this core, we will succeed in habilitating this core's results. So, we should get benefit of love and goodwill relation between both side (the one who acquire habilitation and the other who grant this habilitation) to succeed this process, the first one can improve his mental, bodily and financial level, while the other can perform his mission for a lot of people in short time. The family rehabilitation process can be started with youths regarding their habits, traditions, culture, and the way of work; all these factors enable any one to recognize his life partner. This rehabilitation process is a core for bigger process since the parents' job is habilitating their children either alone or by the assistance of the educational body till they participate in the society's foundations where youths can build a road in the practical life.

The social rehabilitation can reform the scientific, moral and social distortion of the family; this sort of rehabilitation can get family's confidence since it goes deeply in its problems and also try to support its members. Here, the continuous rehabilitating process- from born till entering practical life- helps a lot in improving any person's vocational position or in learning any new vocation, which is agreed with his wishes. This continuous process has plenty of benefits if it exchanges its information with those developmental and hiring centers, this connection can also supply these centers with the available capabilities of rehabilitation centers.

I want to assert here on the necessity of caring about culturing the habilitating body because they are the elite that provide for us the skillful hands and thinking minds. We need those factors to go on in this present life in which big industrial countries control the weak ones. So, this specific situation forces us to hurry in changing our teaching curriculums and systems and to consider our industrial and commercial reality in order to plan well for our future. So, we need to habilitate our relationships with others including our daily behaviors by habilitating family, which is the habilitation's basis.

Here, if we succeed in making any husband and wife able to be qualified people, we can reduce the financial burdens that we need for habilitation any Youngman who dose not recognize its importance. We notice that this process is an educational one can support the relation between those two pervious mentioned because anyone's confidence in the benefits of what he gets from others is the effective mean for acquiring the needed information from them. This man confess that he dose not have the full capacity to get his salary make him try his best to improve his financial or cultural position through books, symposiums and cultures.

60

Page 61: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Finally, we can connect the process of acquiring habilitation with money since man is by nature loving money, here we should create some credibility between rehabilitation and its advantages to avoid the failure in accepting the habilitation ideas and thoughts.

Habilitation is a handling processSome people may think that habilitation is a curative process for only mental or bodily disabled, but we can consider each person dose not master his work (whether he is disabled or not) among diseased. So since disease itself dose not provide for his holder any healthy living, I think all habilitation's types are as curative processes that are differ according to default type. any way, any employee or worker need a little bit of habilitation , which is usually fruitful only in case of subjecting this worker for continuous supervision, for that reason, we should build up a special center for habilitation to be connected with international ones that are depending on scientific researches and experiments.

Now, this center, which must be managed by scientific qualified and experienced people, should contain special parts and departments in which each one specify in one vocation or many other small vocations. We can also connect these departments with international ones to prepare the habilitation programs that escort new machines, and the desired commodities in these international markets. So, the curative habilitation process should enclose all production's stages, starting from customer requirements till we deliver them what we agreed on; especially that habilitating policies should be able to be modified or changed quickly to start a new competition movement.

Here, the freezing of the habilitation policies and programs may cause big damages for our commercial and industrial foundations, for that reason, we notice the importance of vocational supervision that enhance on applying or developing these policies and also protect us from the effects of the rival factories' policies. We notice the meddling of civilization in habilitation's standards because the more we are civilized the more we need the using of these curative process; for that reason, this process should enclose all society's members but in different rates according to the scientific and technological development and to the present living standard. Here, we recognize that civilization helps us in manufacturing this curative process locally, this is the factor, which indicate the economic independence that each Arabic country seeks for.

The national habilitationAs we know, Arab World's capabilities are so big, but we are suffering from the expensive expenses of technical research and vocational habilitation centers. Here since Arab World is engaging in strengthen its economic relations with others; it should improve the production of each country to encourage the consuming of Arabian commodities. This consuming is forming a partition against importing foreign goods that most of them are manufactured in the hostile countries. We, as Arab, should undertake the improving process of our products to replace the imported ones; in addition we should combat the economic powers that try hard to make our markets as selling ones for their products. So, we should try to export our products for them to weaken their economy, as the case in China's treatment with America , the trade balance's scale is always for china advantage as a result of hurrying in habilitating the Chinese worker, which help in arising his annual income.

So, we should reconsider our worker's habilitation according to the present technical developments in order to make the Arabian goods used by Arabian people at first, and then to

61

Page 62: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

export them to other markets; by this way we change our position from consumers for other goods to self- sufficiency till we begin in export process. I have discussed in this research the habilitation since it is considered now the reason of our technical delay, its danger is like the disease that hits man's body in the beginning till it spreads gradually in all his body's organs.

Now since we are very active in reforming our economic profits according to the accelerated international circumstances, we should reconsider the mental and bodily capabilities of working hands. in addition to the possibility of making some modification on productive means in order to produce special commodities can rival the international ones in quality and price; this way make us contribute in development in general by adding special characteristics on some industries. This stage, however, should start healthy on the Arab World level then spread worldly depending on preparing ourselves in all related fields. This is a collective not governmental responsibility because its financial benefit is reflected on individual, the individual that is considered the mirror that reflect the results of habilitation process since society is consisting of group of people.

4- Experiences : Experience is just the knowledge that is resulted from practice, it has two types (scientific and practical) both are useful for advance and development. The financial loss is very great when we manage without these experiences and start dealing with new ones on the plea of that previous experiences are invalid, however we should validate the partnership's principle in civilizations because monopoly these experiences will lead to create a big differences between backward and civilized. So, acquiring experiences and science through spending the mental and muscle efforts is very essential to decrease that difference, and to set the experiences’ manufacturing in man’s priority principle.Here, we can start by1- Personal tendencies and experiences: person can always depend on his experiences, but he should distinguish between what agree with his wishes and tendencies and what do not. Take for example the psychological problems or diseases that may cause bad social and economical relations, they affect the relations between workers and bosses and consequently the product’s quality. We are calling for raising worker’s income, but at the same time we are so embarrassed as a result of our inability of selling his products in the prices, which allow us to pay the required salaries.So, there is a defect that is resulted from worker’s practicing for unwished job that make that worker hate his life, which dose not response to his wishes. The conflict starts here between him and the atmosphere he lives in, and of course he feels disappointed for his inability of facing all these surrounding powers.So, most people practicing any job not for satisfaction their wishes and tendencies, but for humoring life for achieving a high profit standard even if it is out of their wishes; this is of course causing a lot of economical crisis due to hiring not the suitable person in his suitable place.

The question here is: who could we solve this problem? Is it the society duty, individuals, or investors? Is it related to science and reality owners? The responsible authorities of industry is the only involved of this matter, they should form a special job center to specify( by computers) the required qualifications and capabilities of each present vocation , and then entering the characteristics of each new unemployed ; this way allow us to hire the suitable person in the suitable place.

62

Page 63: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

This center also try to make a statistic for each economic group’s hands in order to provide the suitable hands for any new projects, in other words connecting tendencies and wishes with all these factor to get a fruitful production. So, we can support economy by interplay all the information of that computer program, which is able to find fast a suitable job for each unemployed person.2- Tendencies and wishes are the administration’s liability: Some people could claim that we cannot make peace completely between wishes and job sort, but the awareness of departments’ managers make them assure of new worker’s wishes and tendencies to get benefit of them in work developments and changes. Those managers and investors also should help other authorities, which are related to workers’ issues, in making the job accompany with worker’s qualifications and wishes (regarding salaries and bonus). We as managers should make worker feels that this vocation is part and parcel of his life, and encourage him to qualify it to the global standard; the psychological feeling of reaching this level , which is achieved by his self wishes and tendencies ,is the helping mean and instrument for developing and building up qualifications.

We find another important relation between administration’s goodness & worker wishes and global marketing’s success. Here, since administrators are in direct connection with hands, they are the best people who can exploit the collected information from different industrial resources in mounting the worker’s psychological factor.

We can not exploit this wishes and tendencies without applying this idea: we should respect the person’s opinions and forget for a while some material profits because we are dealing with human being not with machines or tools; this is what the big industrial countries apply because they are considering people's directing is very important for production’s development. Administration nowadays has become a separate science, and its basic condition for success is entering the people's depths and reveling their wishes and material problems as well.

Let me ask this question: can managers or administrators do this scientific work whatever their scientific quality? I think that dealing with human's soul is very difficult, so since the pyramidal choice for wishes and tendencies should be started from establishment beginning, we should choose carefully those managers and subject them to some administration courses in order to practice their work very well.

Some people could think that the primary text is enough, this is true if there is not a fast-civilized development, but we have a completely different situation when we considered them the responsible for these happened civilized development and changes. So we can save a lot of expenses when the qualified managers transfer this new high technology to the human body, which they supervise, directly and gradually, here we should not interfere in their choosing for workers since we guarantee their good ability and competence of choosing workers whom their wishes agree with the work they practice.

Getting benefit of wishes and tendenciesWe should subject this matter to elaborated study considering the present industrial situation and development plans because there is no use of any experience if it has not invested in the right place. Here, we should try to classify experiences in special groups contain all society members in order to acknowledge the available experience volume and type , this action will

63

Page 64: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

help us in controlling the present waste that is resulted from opening training insinuations for available experience , while we need institutions for polishing new and unavailable one.So, there is a strong relation between experiences' informatics and the handcraft or vocational training policy on different fields , this is very important especially when we try to get back the emigrated experiences in order to know well the numbers of institutions that we need. We should limit the scientific waste that prevents us of the complete use of our available abilities since there is strong relation between science and material in today's life. Since science ring is the important and effective one, we should reform all the economic rings directly or indirectly; so what is the role of scientific ring regarding the rest ones? What is the reform's effect on the other rings? What are the results of comparing the modifying cost with its patient results? Take the diagnosis as an example , the doctor advice patient for taking suitable medicine in specific case if he dose not recognize the historical public situation of this patient ,taking in consideration the lateral results of this prescribed medicine , but do these effects acceptable in return for the resulted benefits ? there are so many economic problems happened for prescribing not the suitable cure in suitable time, we can from the beginning avoid this disease by keeping off its reasons, which are resulted from issuing random decisions and instructions on different department's level.

Here, we can consider experiences as a national treasure especially that they have double benefit, they are very useful for national economy and for their holder as well since they have become the only mean for developing his mental abilities to improve his social and material standard. These experiences can arise some materials' prices as the case of watches, computers, and electronic industries that need cheap materials for manufacturing. For that reason we see that individual's income in the countries that lack experiences are always exploited by the countries that have these experiences (take the African mineral and petroleum treasures as an example) and then those big countries free those poor ones from part or all the loaned sums forgetting that this is their lawful right. Those people should try to avoid servility and start in effective operation for providing the needed creation for them. The best example here is the invitation of Germanic government for the youths who have computer's experiences to immigrate to its land in return for granting them big financial bonus and also the Germanic nationality, which is very hard for ordinary man.

I think the results that civilized people get from using their experiences make these countries evaluate these experiences because they are the only mean that can guarantee their economic power. So, each one of these countries specialize in special experience to achieve the perfect investment that can guarantee benefits for all. This factor helps in increasing individual's income, which guarantee good living standard comparing with that development countries' standard. However, expanding these experiences in some cases could led to damage if they were not accompany with human social observation, this is the case when we replace human by technology that led to unemployment, consumption's weakness, and bankruptcy of some companies & factories that markets can not hold their tremendous productions. Here, when man try to develop and use his experiences, there is a red line he should not pass ; the process of experiences' expanding vertically that delve into one axis led to individual damage, while the horizontal use can grant him big benefit as the case of caring in commodities' Varity and improving their quality and kind.

Now, we notice that human's developing of his experiences has made him use them in damaging humanity, he resorts to manufacture these bad things for selfish point of view because he has become want happiness for himself only. He starts in producing damaging commodities, for example producing sheets of glasses that are lead protective after he was

64

Page 65: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

producing the normal useful glass that began gradually to be replaced by cheap plastic materials. so, using experiences is very useful to go out from economic stagnancy that is resulted from consumer's undesired of using one specific commodity for long time, or entering illegal special goods to our markets, in this case these experiences should work hard quickly to find substituted commodities either by using the same capabilities or decreasing selling price.

So, experiences should find the suitable solution to avoid factories' bankruptcy that led to decrease salaries and consequently living standard. They are the perfect medicine for all healthy, social, economic diseases, they are not only a collective factor but also a personal one that is looking for improving the economic situation ; this factor is in most cases resulted suddenly as we read in researches and discovers history. The human who seek for improving his economic situation is of course much better than the one who try to use others' acquirements to achieve a private benefits, so can we consider this man a discoverer one ?The civilized racing within nations is the motive for more discoveries and consequently more experiences, we notice the results of this development after Second World War when many discoveries had appeared. However, we should not relate these discoveries only at need, but we should live in experienced atmosphere even if we obliged to get use of other experiences and experiments in order to exploit the results according to the economic capabilities, the industries that have so many local raw material as touristy, agriculture or hidden treasures ones. Man should confess his experiences' weakness and resort to redress by import these experiences to response to the investment' needs. That what we notice in the countries that grant some advantages for experienced emigrants; so discovering these experiences, developing them and how we can get benefit of them is a science in itself.

The role of scientific institutions in revealing experiencesI have said before that mother has an important role in revealing different qualifications, and of course this revealing will never be healthy and correct one if the revealer wan not in full knowledge and awareness. We can compare this with the isotopic tracer that used to reveal electrolyte's elements; we can not reveal the required material in that electrolyte without using the correct revealing material. However, since there is some weakness in Arabian woman's culture, we should teach her how to reveal these experiences I that long period she is living with here babies and youths. These information could be presented to experience research center to achieve the continuous cooperation between scientific and practical authorities because scientific theory can not take its position without being sure of its competence for the practical applying , this is of course the basic factor in specifying the revealed experience types that support human advantage.

So, woman's science enables her to discover her baby's experiences and consequently decrease his bad or unused ones. Here, in order to cancel these unused experiences, we should increase the good ones in his mind because the human soul originally refuse these damaging ones as a result of their weakness comparing with right and good ones. We should not forget here the importance of preparing the teaching staff that is complete the mother's role in revealing these experiences. This staff can reveal each student's experience through the hobbies he practices, these hobbies that are very connected with stored experiences because they are just an interaction of the information in human's mind. For example man can learn that the road he takes in this life has caused him a lot of problems, for that reason he is trying hard to take another one. However, the difficulties that he exposed to be differ from the

65

difficulties that afflict another one; so what shall he do to avoid these difficulties? They said before that " wise man is who take examples from others" so not every mind can transfer information to experiences and consequently unhealthy mind may led its holder to death because most of the stored experiences are the results of the acquired science in different studying stages.

So, the educational curriculums should consider this idea because the real experiences are formed from experiments' results. For that reason, we should adopt the practical applying for the available information to realize their truth or error then directing and developing these experiences in schools by granting the good ones some financial rewards. Here, we should adopt the scientific preparation for working cadres in different foundations, corporation that are dealing with youths especially that the successful experiences are considered part and parcel of creative minds. Cultural and scientific institutions should cooperate with that experience' center by supplying it with each youth special experience, furthermore we should connect this center with hands class to contribute in solving the unemployment problem.

We can also build up a DATA Bank to provide us special statistics about the present used experiences and also the consumption and new ones. The ones that we can get benefit for (retired) that help in the lock hands and also comply with new industrial needs. Revealing experiences is helping in finding new industries that are depending on rare experiences, which do not depend on expensive expenses in providing new products or improving any marketing's performance.

Finally, the industrial and commercial authorities should cooperate with other ones since they are the responsible of the activity of expansive section of society, especially in developing the personal work that helps in decreasing the present burden of different types of unemployment. In addition to that it helps in increasing salaries and connecting them with these sector's experiences depending on quality not quantity policy. The large quantity is considered very damaging on quality factor especially when there is not any coherence in the used experiences in one work, but the question here is: do these experiences provide the used amount in specific work due to duty or for concern? so, we should reveal their type and quality before ordering any one in any work to avoid any possible waste in using these experiences and of course their quantity is connected with the making materials, for that reason the factor that seek for getting better living standard is more experience than another one, and using its experience in finding good work in short time. For that reason, we notice that the Germanic worker's wages is much more than any worker in developing countries.

5- experiences and the whole world: Since world nowadays has become deciding his people's fate thought canceling the custom limits within all countries , there will definitely be an experiences' conflict. However, how we can strengthen our experiences to avoid others' exploitation? We should firstly get benefit of our ancestors' experiences and then study the effective of the present ones, after that we can resort to global experiences. These three factors forming the start point for developing and improving ours, depending on the mutual experiences between our public organizations and other countries' ones. We can send, for example, our youths to spend some days in other countries, this action opens new horizon for them to interact with other ones' experiences. They should try to go along with the big industrial countries' youths to recognize every thing that may help them in developing their living.

We should not forget that every creature in this earth has his own experience; this experience differs quantitatively and qualitatively from one person to another. Therefore, advertising for exchanging experiences is one of the most important factors in applying the new globalization because when the strong experience helps the weak one, the resulted actions will definitely utilize those strong experts. However, most industrialists think that granting others this experiences will damage them forgetting that the global stagnancy is resulted from the big countries' monopoly for their experiences and technologies; these countries still grant the weak experiences ones some aids and loans , then by courtesy and love they rearrange these loans.

This material treatment fallowed of course by political requests that in most cases aim to increase their profits, here the weak experiences people should aware this matter and try to get the others' experiences in any way as china does. One of the Chinese economists said to me that factories owners were clothing their machines when they expected the visit of any industrial or technical delegation for their stands. However, in spite of these cautions, China has become very advanced industrial country whether in making textile's machines or other different ones due to the cheapest cost and good quality of their products.Let take this Chinese experiment as an example for economic reform because any civilized slowness is falling upon the whole society which each individual should seek for special work to improve his practical experience far away from public sector. This way is better than standing in front of official doors to beg them for any job; they may however hire him according to his certificate not according to his experience. So, experience exchange is a national duty, the diligent student can help the lazy one because his good work today may help him not in the practical life if he does not have the required experience. Here, I want to confirm that this exchange within different nations is encouraging the mutual affinity as a result of their equality in knowledge or experience, which has become the instrument that impose itself on the whole world.

Now, the world in general should build up scientific centers can reveal the presented experience in world's different areas then developing them well. This is the new mean for investing minds as a support for material one, especially in the poor countries. I think some people are completely engaged in acknowledging new technologies because dealing with international experiences can unit people and make them more harmony with the international society. So when any individual arise his experience, he will be very active useful one for himself and society as well.

International organization should help people in revealing their experience instead of material aids they present. They can present these aids in form of raw material or half manufacture materials and help those people to take their role in the international industry. Here, we notice the difference between aids that aim to low them and the good ones that try to train people who need some help in building up special productive industry.

This action helps poor countries in overcome their financial problems and prepare their people for using their personal efforts and experiences. so, big industrial countries should stop treating those countries in that slavery way and help them in exploiting their abilities; this way will make the wanted peace prevail the whole world and also make globalization's principle accepted by everyone when he notice that its benefits will be distributed for all people. People are usually revolt against globalization just to defend them from gobbling their legitimate rights in reforming their economic situation.

So, the present globalization is a temporary one because it dose not depend on people's advantages, for that reason the good experienced countries should share the weak ones in specifying globalization's notion because this process is a humanist one depends not on advantages . however experts should realize also that they will get a lot of benefits as result of their monopoly for their experiences because transferring them can not be acquired in few days ; it is the results of interaction of many experiments and sciences in addition to the well atmosphere that help in their developing and promotion . Experts should be very patient and wise because man is just a brother for the other man, and the global problems are in fact resulted from that big disparity in experiences, but controlling this disparity will definitely provide the wanted global peace.

How we can reveal and activate experiencesWe know that each man has some wishes and tendencies that are born by his born, but do these wishes are natural things or just reflection. Some researches indicate that the healthy man feels comfortable and relief as a result of practicing special works and feels stress and tiredness for practicing another one ;the first work is accompany with his tendencies, while the other is on the opposite. Man should seek for discovering his talents before others' discovering for them and developing them to be his happy source since our age nowadays is a material one, which grow by filling in applications that contain experiences and different wishes: math's, engineering , medicine ….However, does society leave man to discover his experiences alone? The society, I think, must interfere in this discovering when man can not exploit these experiences alone or exploiting them in the wrong way, in this case society should correct these wrong tries that may cause psychopath or bad relations with other people. We, as human, should remind this person of the good thoughts and opinions he has and that exploiting them well will grant a lot of benefits for him and society as well. Man's work of course is evaluated according to his useful experience, for that reason handling this man's lack of experience means returning this person to other intellectuals and thinkers.

I can consider this relation as: revealing talents ---- hands ----- accompany these hands with talents -----the satiable quality and quantity in production ---------improving worker's living standard.

Here, appears the importance of society in revealing talents that are interred with their holders. It is in fact a fortune, which it is as importance as natural ones because it can provide the perfect use for these natural wealth. The talents are just characteristics that God has created in his creatures' minds in addition to nature that has a continuous interaction with those creatures. However I do not mean the damaging one when man uses chemical materials that are extracted from nature to quell other humans or even to quell nature itself by building up factories can ruin environment.

The human society should work hard to make an inclusive surveying for nature to prepare its capabilities and talents that god created for man's benefit. Man is the God's successor on earth as mentioned in Holy Koran. International society should also encourage the growth of new talents to replace the invalid ones because caring about these talents is just a distribution for economic abilities according to each people's present efforts and talents. The scientific international universities and foundations have become granting creative people some monetary or in kind prize that suit their present effort as Nobel prize for best practical

68

Page 69: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

scientific production can serve the whole humanity; They believe that any scientific creation will serve human because it is just a joined chain with man's talents . It is naturally that creation is started from man till it contains society as the case when we throw a stone into Water Lake so as much the first circle is strong as much the number of the spread ones. So, man should execute a work can grant benefit for him and for society as well to contribute in the reform process, but the executive administration should provide the suitable atmosphere for these personal creation and I am sure that selfish benefit is the basic for this creation. However, most creations unfortunately emigrate abroad forming a big loss for their home that need these creation for developing the economy as a whole.

Exploiting talents in economic curesOne of the helping factors for some economic problem is redistributing the using of different types of wealth between local consumption and export& import process. If our country , for example, has an abundant production of cotton ( our society is not convinced of this economic characteristic since it is not grant him the required income) , while the high quality cotton products are rival us in the global markets and even they invade our market. So, what is the solution for this economic problem? It is better if we call any local or foreign marketing foundation to find the proper solutions and grant good financial reward for best solution. We can also announce for mental creative competition and grant the first three winners a suitable reward; this is what we call a public participation that is in this case much better than the executive and legitimate powers.

Applying this way prevent people from objection of adopted reforming procedures and grant those two powers the suitable justification for their economic procedures. This way helps government in going on its reforming plans as a result of public confirmation for mental creative idea; here what we have said about the cotton marketing can be applied on any economic or social problem.

Creation is one of the means that achieve justice for working classMost public sector's employees and workers claim that they are oppressed and other claim that they always reward by negligence or combat in spite of their creation. So, he is obliged of abandon these given tries for improving his performance, which is the only source for his living. Therefore, the best solution for this serious problem, which is equal between the creative and uncreative worker, is resorting to reward's system by granting the idea holder some bonus and decrease in return the salary of laggard of providing the lowest level of quality and production.

So, we should not accept from the worker who is satisfied of his salary to stay lazy and dull and takes the lowest salary, so he must push his mental faculties towards the intellectual creation regardless of weakness of this creation, thus we see that the cure of activating experience is a cure in which its effectiveness was proved along the diversity of people and their civilizations because it proves its material relationship which became necessary in life, thus the increase of living needs is cause to move and develop the needed experience, but it maybe it is said that the rush towards securing the civilized issues is not the same in all kinds of people, although this speech is not true to some extend but the civilized necessity became purpose that every member of a family attempt to achieve. So, if the master of a family is satisfied of the limited income it is impossible for members of the family to like that, therefore, their civilized rush towards owning more civilized issues must affect the head of

69

the family, and this will force the family to the overtime work or it will force the master of the family to increase his job income, and in both cases the master of the family needs to exert more effort to develop his needed experience to cover the insistent need. Therefore, the motive to improve the living situation is connected with the use of the latent experience and exerting effort to develop them, and this is the criterion for the human being to improve his living situation and he has no right to accuse others being nonfeasance towards him, so the effort of man whether the mental or the physical one is the basis in making experience and develop it, so the relationship between effort and experience is strong and solid, so each one of them has no meaning without the other, and many people exert effort but it is useless because it is called the wasted effort or movement, and also there is no meaning to the rich experience if it remained latent in the mind without expressing through the effort, therefore the importance of planning process appeared or what it is called preparation for works before doing them and of course the experience has the great basic role in planning process because it is the mean that connects between the past and future.

Experience ExportationMany countries over the world draw the creative emigrants to their economy and pay them suitable salaries of what makes us prepare the needed experience at first, then prepare the required experience at the worldwide standard according to the priority, for instance, we begin preparing the computerized experience which form the largest number of employment size which is required worldwide and then begin with the less needed and gradually like this. And exportation of experienced trained employment is not less important than exportation of goods and maybe it is more important, and the reason for that is that it gets added value from outside its country then we get it back to the homeland to work in and to develop and modernize it, and we can call this process the experience trade, besides it contains a couple benefits: the first one is related to the experience holder because he could achieve better living situation outside his homeland than what he achieved in his original homeland, the second benefit is related to the society in which he grew up. So, the citizen who acquired his experience inside his country and used it is completely different from the citizen who added to his local experience outer one and he could form a new experience coming from mixing between the local experience and the foreign one, and this is a treasure can be seen now and it is represented by inviting the local experience which is existed in the foreign countries to come back to contribute to the development process and modernize banking in Syria, because the exported experience is a growing experience and the national economy gets a new and useful experience when it needs it by re-importing it from the exported regions.

Therefore, there is used experience and experience ready to be used which can be used, and always the need determines the kind and quantity of time that we need for each experience according to requirements of the reformation journey with the necessity to what happens for the global experience development, because the experience is source for discoveries and inventions and the latter is the strong source which affects the economy that every country attempts to develop and modernize in order to keep on a certain standard for its people with the keep on the continuous observation to our exported employment. And perhaps the reformations steps that we follow make them come back home when we need them and forget the low salaries that they were taking. And we should know that we did a lot of mistakes against the surplus experience which it wanted to follow its experienced colleagues, and we began to allow them to leave after those regions which were in need for them became sufficient because of new economic situations, and this is really what happened directly after Gulf war.

But from my point of view the situation will differ in the future because of their feeling that industrializing wealth that they have is better than exporting it as raw materials, especially when the prices of oil faced a global shock which made the price of the barrel reach to its cost value. And here I want to stress this point which is that we can cooperate with a foreign institutes and universities in order to open braches for them which are needed to the civilized world as a transitory stage to provide cadres and curriculums to make the required scientific rising, thus it needs experience exportation at first and then use part of it until to the availability of economic abilities to establish the qualified institutes, universities, and schools to teach different experiences, and how nice if they were studies related to the required experience at all levels, including factories, business departments and professors all over the country in order to make experience map which it could be the basis to make the global experience map, and through these two maps we can make curriculums and determine the functions of the education system and its work and prevail consciousness through different means about the importance of acquiring experience.

Connecting local experience with the global oneEvery country in this world will submit to globalization and maybe it submitted really because of being influenced by the surrounding world, but the degree of this influence determines the degree of our submission to globalization especially that all the world became at hands of any human being existed on the earth through different mass media which are working by satellites. Therefore, every has to develop its experience and benefit from others experience, especially after prevailing satellites and every country-no matter it is far or near- can convey whatever it wants through satellites, and this is what makes getting experience easy. So, man who has no experience about using any computer program can contact the producer of this program through e-mail and get the needed information about it, also the computer user can offer his opinion about the dangers that he faces when using computer, and this in reality is experience in which the producer can benefit from, and most of companies or factories attempted to get the experience of end user by offering prizes to the useful experience which can help them to improve production or avoid some industrial dangers or improve the managerial work or changing the marketing way in addition to the helping methods that can increase works through experience reaction and the exchange between the producer and user.

Experience ArabismThe science of experience in a manner of speaking is the basic pillar for civilization and for improving the living situation, and the research about it is costly at the level of studying the internal consumption and exportation, so, it is better to exploit the material energies of the Arab nation to uncover the experience in order to improve and use it, especially that the experience energies which are disarranged on the earth of Arab nation are geographically close to each other of what facilitates exchanging experience when it is needed according to the global developmental circumstances, for instance, we need one thousand experts in planting and manufacturing and marketing cotton, while we have 2000 qualifications, so, we exploit the needed scientific experience of them and market the rest over the world, and here we notice the good relationship between the scientific methods and the different methods which are followed in developing and improving experience and between the global marketing requirements for different experiences and employment, that is if we want to succeed in getting a good portion from the global employment markets. And we should not forget that Arab cooperation decreases the rehabilitation costs from one side, also it helps in planting confidence in the qualified persons that definitely they will get the suitable work

71

Page 72: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

according to their qualifications because of the wide spread of exploitation all over the Arab world, thus it is better to devote a part of Arab nation abilities for its experience and this is much better from the financial aid which is given by some countries to others, that the conditions which are imposed by the granted country on the grantee country are not always available for the latter, therefore, some of Arab nation people will be deprived from goods of their Arab brothers without any reason.Thus, this situation will be completely different when the economic cooperation among people of Arab world is done, so that, some countries develop economically by the aid of Arab brothers, consequently this continuous cooperation strengthens and develops Arab solidarity because it comes out of love of Arab individual for his brother along the wide earth level from the ocean to the gulf, thus, this will move definitely the desire of the taker to change the policy of economy in order to return the favor to the giver as a result of changing the taker from a poor country or people to economically strong people, And a good example for that, the German people who were colonized and divided during the second world war by the Allies, and the strength of developing experience in its western part leads to a huge powerful economy which enabled to join its eastern part to it with what it has from financial power, also it could liberate its country from the four biggest colonized countries, all that because of the huge economic activity which was practiced under the occupation, also which was leaded by German individual after he was defeated in the second world war, and he could rise industrially which restored his industrial heritage, thus the German factories became producing cars and different developed industrial machines.

Media and ExperienceNo doubt that media helps in discovering experience and provokes and develops it and this is what it is called the general culture, so, when the worker in the developing countries sees a certain industrialization process and finds himself that he has the ability to practice this process in a better way, by this, he uncovers his experience, and when he tries to practice this experience through his work an intellectual creation will be produced from this try represented by improving the quality of production. Therefore, media has played its complete role in this field, especially when it resorts to forums and lectures or showing movies about global principles which help workers to apply science on work. From here, the benefit of media appears in conveying the scientific information to the people who want to develop their experience or at least offering the desire in getting knowledge and experience which can be useful for human being in doing his daily works, also mass media have a role in correcting the opinion of persons who feel injustice because of the low salaries which are paid for them, while they ignore the nature of the work and its quality and quantity which they offer and they do not take in their consideration that what they offer does not deserve increasing salaries.

This subject is important and was not taken seriously in the countries which consider acquiring experience from the developed countries a fault and dangerous, so an Arab individual has a great experience but either he does not know it or does not discover and develop it, or the surrounding circumstances do not help him, therefore, I call the society to be responsible and interested in experience by establishing institutes and special researches centers for it, also I call to merge our experience with the global one in order to be able to graft our experience with the developed industrial countries experience, thus to rush towards forming developed experience which helps us to build correct economic base, and the fee was connected with the experience in order to not be an economic burden resulting from raising fees, and this means connecting fees with the quality and quantities which are produced within a limited. Then I knew that the process of uncovering experience is a

72

Page 73: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

complicated process and needs time starts from the mother or the family and be performed in a better way with the cooperation between the family and the school. Also, I clarified that the material factor helps in discovering experience and preserving it, also it helps to develop it and then getting levels and grades of intellectual creation and this is in reality what we need in our economic development.

Chapter three1-behaviour in the economic and social activities

Page 74: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Studying the behavior in general is very important matter because he is the only way that we can set a complete regular system in any sector through either associational or singular plans. Meanwhile, I don't think that setting accurate measures for behavior in its correct and sensual ways will open for us a great opportunity for success, so I see that we should object our behavior to the continuous and accurate mental judgment with taking a look for our past. This way is very useful to reevaluate some different sorts of our behavior in order to reach to the perfect performance and consequently to the wanted satisfied results. Here, I think it is very useful presenting some basic features for a studied and scientific behavior system through this study.

A basic role in economic activitythe success of any commercial or industrial work is very connected with the behavior of the man who is practicing that work, so since the man is the basic motivated power in any project whatever this project is depending on the latest technologies and automation, it is very important tacking that's man behavior as the principle in choosing the suitable man for any industrial or commercial project.

No doubt that the good behavior for anyone who works in the economic sector (whether the doorman or even the general manager of any institution) is a basic and important condition for any success. The general manager's good behavior imposes on others the respect ness & appreciation and consequently their good applying of his orders and instructions. This behavior also will be considered as a high example for departments' managers which positively reflect on the work's regularity in the economical project, and will be the basic stone for applying the accounting principle on useless peoples. so when the general manager, as an example, is complying with the regular work's hour from 8 till 4, the departments' managers will definitely comply with the work's hour, and when any department's boss replacing the neglectful worker in repairing his machine or teaching him how to keep up it, that worker will acquire the needed motive for more work and giving. So making the behavior's experiment for reforming wrong self beliefs will be the right instrument for reforming other's behavior, for instance the administrative cadre in factory should handle the irregular behavior cases through knowing firstly their motives and reasons, and then clarifying the badness of that behavior in order to prompt him to follow the wanted and regular good behavior.

The upbringing's important roleMan's behavior is the direct and normal result for his accumulated education and experience since his born till his end life. He began to acquire his sciences from his small society (family) and then school neighborhood. Here, since that behavior is directly affected by these acquired sciences, we can relate any of his behaviors to the nature of the human that he was connecting with in one circle of his social ones; in other words, building a valid healthy society requires good and well directing for its members' behavior. Since children are considering their parent the high example in everything, the parent should follow the good and planed behavior in front of the children who have weak ability in comparing and judging. we should not forget also the big an important role of school in directing children's behavior, the teaching staff should complete the role of parent in home through strengthen the goodness and noble values by adopting perfect behavior from every member (teachers and employees) in the school ; those members who should be chosen according to these factors:-his personal life and situation in the family-his social relations

74

Page 75: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

-his educational background These procedures should be stay continuous in the high educational stage in order to make university complete what the family and school have done.

A reflection of mental qualification Behavior is the natural reflection of awareness level and mental ability as well; we can judge people's mental level through their actions and reactions. The mental diseased has random moves and rash actions while the mental balanced has an acceptable and sedate behaviors. So, due to the direct influence of brain on behavior we should give it our greet care since the fetus stage through providing the perfect food and complete psychological comfort for the pregnant mother. Scientifics have proved the connection between food and psychological passivity with the fetus's health and mother as well; the mother that we should protect and take care of her excellently because she is the one who bringing up and teaching him the first lessons, whish will create his personality and behavior in all his life .so, we should be aware the importance of objecting women for educational cultural provide them the ability of healthy treatment for their children. Treating with behavior mistakes' committers needs a lot of awareness and studying; this mistake is always being accompanied with feeling of closeness and discomfort. It seems here the importance of presence of some neutral aware personality able to find out the mistake, clarifying its reasons and directing its committers to the right way, on the contrary adopting the repression manner and punishment may produce negative reactions insist on persisting in mistakes. I think here the committer of behavior mistake should apologize and clarify his stand , the worker for example can avoid the consequences of any mistake he has done by confessing his fault ,explaining the reasons and expressing his intention to avoid it . This should be accompany with the good social atmosphere in the establishment in general whish is provided by a successful administrative that clarifies for employees that their benefits is with work's successful whish is obtained only by giving and cooperation.

Civilization scaleThe inhabitant's individual behavior in the advanced country in different life's fields is more positive and effective than that of poor and delayed ones according of course to the society's nature in both cases. advanced countries is providing for their people a studied directing and education in house and at school as well , different means that provide them acknowledging culture and social values. These advanced countries are not necessary that rich industrial ones, but they are the ones that concern about moral civilizations, their inside and outside relations and depend on education and culture in their economic plans and strategies.

Now regarding those poor societies, I think there is a lot of enlightenment and guidance ways can be adopted to strengthen the good wanted behaviors. we, as a nation does not have that big material capabilities, can build a good social behavior basis through habilitate social conductors to send them to visit women and mothers in houses in order to teach them how to apply the right ways in upbringing and education, that is because to have good society you should begin study the forming of healthy family, which is the basic adobe in its shape.what is applied in that big society can be applied in any economical association for that reason it appears here the big important of workers' enlightenment, in other words we cannot separate between behavior& upbringing and civilization due to the fact that worker's performance and production is connected strongly with their behavior.

Using informatics to advance our behavior Every thing in our daily life has become objective, in organizing the relation between its parts & power & work system order and the suitable solutions for any possible expects, to informatics system. since we are convinced of importance of our behavior in different life stage and in our political, social and economical activities, we should object it to developing and improvement's process through saving some past and present's behaviors in our computers then analysis every one of it to many parts in order to know the origin of each one and how it was developed till it reached to this final situation, in addition to know what is its effects on other parts that create that full behavior. This process helps us to acknowledge that man's behavior is not totally bad, but it could contain some good sorts one. That is what informatics does in this field it sheds light upon that good behaviors and puts aside bad ones and their aspect's affects on man. what we have said on normal social life can be adopted in industry through inserting the factory's owner in the factory's informatics system which is using the good pyramid behavior system that could expose any defect in the used scale in one of the production's stage and also the reasons for this defect whish could be misbehavior of one or even all workers in this industrial stage. In addition to that this system could specify the wanted behavior according to each produced sort or industrial stage that what is called nowadays as "robot" which is replaced the hands.

This system also helps us in putting the strategies that we should adopt in any new product by comparing the new product's quality and the needed steps for producing it. Finally, this system can fallow the behaviors of markets, sales and accounting in dealing with customers, it directs this behavior and planning for substituted ones in any emergency cases with setting the responsibility (individual or collectivize ) for any dishonoring the wanted behavior in every step.

Controlling advertisement is essential importance Many advertisements do not care the behavior's morals in read and listened advertisements. These advertisements, which should help people to take after the good behavior, have a great influence on people because they are very lovely and indirection means. so when advertisement show any samples for any factory's products it should present organized and respected workers in order to give an impression that this high quality of this product is as a result of good organization and care in hands. This applies also on members outside factory; marketing and sales men should adopt an attractive way in exposing goods. To sum up, the successful advertising is that one who care for good behavior and who concord with observer traditions and customs because to success is to make the wanted harmony between behavior and advertisement idea.

2- The relation between civilization and the developmental plansThe civilization's concept is differed from one nation or region or even time to another and usually we called anyone as civilized man according to many factor like culture level, living standard, treating other people (behavior) so civilization's process is a very complicated one and also connected with many different factors.

The effects of brain's movement towards civilizationNature has a big and important role in providing the civilization's element for every man lives under its wing .usually hot and dry weather is herald for laziness and inactivity, but it didn't prevent man from offering all kinds of effort for improving his living. that is what we notice clearly now in the Arabian peninsula which was a sample for desert life and simple one, however it now depends on herself in some agricultural products and even export the rest, it also begins to transmute some of its oil wealth to petrochemical industry, in addition to provide a special atmosphere to attract tourists and businessmen. These are the Saudi Arabia, Emirates, and Kuwait which were before thirty years just barren desert countries, but they used their minds and they have become exporting not importing a lot of consumer goods to other Arab world countries. These countries also exploit well a perfect economical freedom which has made their lands the goal that businessmen want to reach; Jabal Ali, for example is a region that produce some goods and it is the store that export goods for all middle and Far East countries. so, using human's mind in a healthy and studied way can improve the living standard and economy in general for any country other wise it will be objected to the hell of nature and still retarded and underdeveloped one .

That is what we witness nowadays in middle Asia countries although the tremendous natural wealth (oil, natural gas geographic location) they have. These countries is objected to economical and political circumstances obstacle their mental running in order to make their countries get benefit of their wealth and location as well. God created nature and offered man all the requirement through it, so in any environment man had to live, god had created a lot of subjects which man can improve his living standard by using well his mental abilities. regarding countries each one has a special specifications differ from the other, one has a great geographic location, other great green areas full of fruits and Citrus while other has deep-rooted history and old archaeologies, so man has to exploit these available that god offers for him through granting much more of muscle and mental effort as the big industrial countries do. let us take for example the German people who was totally exhausted within World War II ,but the titanic efforts which have been granted make them restore their power and activity to build a strong and stable economy allows Germany to become now one of biggest and most important industrial country in the whole world.

The upbringing's influence on civilization the civilization's sort and quantity is connected strongly with the upbringing 's process, so the curriculums should be connected with the developmental plans which are adopted according to the present economical reality and how to build a stronger one; in other words working to increase the civilization scale to that advanced countries' level. The role of education and upbringing is not only presenting or offering the scientific knowledge to those longing brains, but also to affect that brains to move them to a respectable living standard level. that is because these people's abilities is not less than that of those educated Arab in overseas where they get the high administrative and scientific positions due to being culturally qualified and lived in atmosphere that helped them to develop that abilities. So, since any society is consisting of families which care of that new generation, we should care for family's education in general (quality & quantity) because any individual is one member in the family and at the same time is responsible for work has to perform properly.We should support the relation between income and education in order to encourage people to restore to different kinds of it. man can have nothing without an effort because life standard is connected directly with that exerted effort and education is one of the improving

77

Page 78: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

ways for effort line; however, exerted effort needs always for rational directing (like public relations, experience and acknowledgment) to get benefit of it . so, transferring these science and experiences from educated mental to that weaker ones is urgent and essential matter to help the new generation to go on in this life ,and also to help the present generation to improve his performance in order to improve his living standard .now ,since education is that important and essential instrument for improving living standard , we should restudy our scientific situation and know that scientific manner which is used by those countries who provide a suitable individual's income. As a matter of fact, when individual's income level is improved the civilization level will centrally be improved due to his longing to get more of those material, immaterial and mental civilization substances which are in short the urbanized civilization ones.

The role of media in civilization and incomeMedia has an important role in directing the consumption which is one sort of civilization because man could use these civilization means more than that material ones to get what he needs. However, it could be a difficult choice if he doesn't know well the present civilized manners (sort and performance) and also know the difference in benefit between the usual means and these civilized ones, this benefit which is accompanied by difference in quality and price. This can be reached only through the right approach between man and the civilized means and also through direction which helps in choosing the suitable ones. since media is the mean of communication between man and civilized means we can't improve the individual's income which is connected with improving the production's sort and quality without using that media in order to achieve he wanted success on the local and global level.we should connect media with the civilized direction which provide us the ability of spending without any kind of wasting to increase the cultural informative level in order to make media practices his role in serving society and exploitation civilization in serving its individuals through increasing income and avoiding waste. So, media's role is clarifying that civilization is choosing the suitable elements and factors for every case of our commercial, social and industrial life, take for example tow men have the same income but different family and appearance situation the reason of course is how these two men can get benefit of media. however, media can't do all this alone without improving the individual's economic, social and cultural situation because many people don't understand the meaning of restricted media unless this media takes into consideration the different standard of customs and cultures for those different society's groups and classes .

opening on civilizations helps brains to think and create in order to contribute in supporting and preparing civilized society, but not to be burden on it and as a result to be just a consumer for civilization .this consumption is due to society's incapable of habilitation this individual, he hasn't get any prepared educational plan to face this civilization which has become surrounding him in every stage in his life. This preparation could be achieved through the technical and vocational training that enable him to get the suitable income to interact with this civilization; this interaction will be according to the available scientific capabilities because the relation is very strong between income& education and the national economy's success. In addition to that, the attraction of the new generation, which lacks the cultural and materialism capabilities, towards civilization without having its suitable qualifications could harm them and also the society as well due to the deviation of this generation of straight way. They want to satisfy their civilized needs by illegal ways such as resort to criminality to provide the needed income to get that cost civilization. here appears to us another problem: how could we face this civilized tendency which is a result of aggressive steps on civilization without a proper preparing and as a result the failure in achieving the civilization's process in

78

Page 79: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

civilized way, and the general failure in changing the situation of the present exerted effort which doesn't suit the weak present income to an effort that agree with the youths' requirements for getting the cost civilization.

The activating factors for income and civilization Since civilization has become nowadays considered as only material and income, so any activating for income's process is activating for civilization. We should increase consumption's level through increasing income in studied and directed way in order to increase the civilization's level. However, we have to know that the used means for increasing are very hard and complicated ones and need more researches and studies in applying those necessary procedures to modify the present situation and to set the new developmental plans which suit what researches come to. everything should be objected to scientific research and gradual applying to make sure of its safety, this is what we can called in the medical field knowing the apparent reactions of patient's cure .the motives system is considered one of the most important cures that achieve success in its different forms and types such as the scientific, social, economic and sport ones. Motive makes the human mind order the muscular system to make some moves that help him doing good performance in any work; as long the mind is convinced of that motive's competency in providing a lot of wishes and ambitions, it will command that muscular system more accuracy orders. Of course the authority charged with this matter should do this mission after big sufficient study because the curative motive should be given after a patient's psychological studies that specify its type, quantity, and suitable time.

now, the outside factor is motivating the purchasing interest that accompany the civilized needs marketing's process in studied manner to exploit man tendency for machines and equipment that fulfill his needs especially if they were manufactured in a very attractive way. However, we should grow the public culture to protect individual from that different color and form temptations which companies resort to. in this way the consumer can making sure of the effectively of that commodities for the quantity of declared needs, especially when that declaration speaks only about the temptation sides without mention that unused ones in order to confuse the consumer thinking of that damage, which could happen to him even it is very small one . this declaration manner has granted the declared commodity a great amount of success, for that reason some associations , healthy and international organizations, which care about man's health, begin to shed a light upon damages that may attack man's health when he get a special commodity especially that common ones like cigarette. they interfere in the sponsor's potencies by imposing upon him to mention the smoking damages in a written phrases on the packets; they also impose upon medical factories to mention in the same medicine packets its medical benefits, how we should use and save it and its negative effectives .all these procedures are forming the necessary motive for man to get the suitable medicine and to warn him of some negative effects that may happen to him as a result of using it.

Any product's fame could play a big important role in supporting that motive , so we should teach the user how should he use his income especially in the development countries which their individual's income isn't sufficient to fulfill the lowest line of civilized materials ; these materials which have become in the 20th century very essential and basic ones. Here we notice the hardness of covering the material weakness between this man's product in these countries and his wish of living in a good respectable standard, so the nation's practical and

79

Page 80: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

scientific cadres should raising those people to reach that wanted standard. However, they should depend on themselves because to depend on other's help is to lose your freedom and authority, the best example here is Germany that lost everything after the end of 2ed world war, but with the effort of its individuals it is now one of the biggest industrial country in the whole world.

Countries' role in activating civilizationWe all know that civilizations' transition had been completed within people and nations as those ones which west countries had been taken from the Arab world and developed them according to the needs which seek for special targets. They wish to have that economic power which can't be reached without producing different subjects in quality and quantity, this production needs to find new material and intellectual's production means. competition within advanced countries has become the ruling property since the2ed world war till nowadays, but that t3ed world countries or development ones has become just consumption people for civilization due to their failure in developing their civilization or even in economic treatment with that advanced ones to create a civilized basis enable them to use that new civilized means in order to build a strongly economic tower.

Here, we can notice the big relation between material and the scientific creation; we unfortunately don't know what we need so we used other's civilization to ensure our needs. The question here is: shall we despair since the civilization difference has getting more expansion between us and those countries? The answer is of course no, our proof here that most of our scientists has contributed in that countries' development. So we as Arab in total do not have a full negative participation in the civilization's development, but we had an effective attributive in today's civilization concept. This concept which we can reach by making the Arab’s experts works in the Arab lands and restores those effective and immigrated minds to their home in order to contribute in building their civilization. We can after this build a strongly economy based on education and knowledge which are need special scientific researches centers. These centers help us in finishing the civilized development's rings starting from human mind to the material power, which led to the scientific research center, and finally the wanted powerful economy. These steps enable us to become a civilized nation because we are depending on civilized principles make us able to stand on the same line with that civilized nations.

I blame that advanced countries which are contouring in their civilization's development without preparing the consumption countries, with their depending on the products for efforts' system; the system that make the advanced countries use that effort on their land and sell them their civilized products directly. So, we have here two markets one for hands and other for selling the production, which is resulted by those hands efforts.

This is what Germany does with turkey, Pakistan and Arabian people in order to make these countries economically connected to the Germanic economy without developing hands. Two questions arise here: how long the underdeveloped countries accept to contribute in others' civilization only in effort not on the equal civilized interchange? Does this matter connected with that countries policy to impose the hegemony's policy on that consumption ones? I think it is time now to those underdeveloped countries educators to feel their duties and to ask that civilized ones to use and get benefit of their son's efforts on their lands which is better than accepting different form and type assistances.United nations should impose on the industrial countries to produce the raw materials in their production's countries, and develop that third world countries which is full of raw materials ;

80

Page 81: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

this development will replace that small favor of the biggest industrial ones(in material, in kind or both of them) between now and then to reduce poverty of those countries 'people. For that reason, I call all Arab people to provide the suitable atmosphere for building up their minds (inhabitants or emigrants) because the Arab's minds don't have the same life standard that civilized countries minds have. So, Arab people should take into consideration this important matter and take responsibility in modifying the annual individual's income in order to facilitate the civilized connection mission with that advanced countries. This action also protects countries from globalization that is leaded by civilized ones in view of the fact that there is a big and important relation between income's power and economy one which both are forming the invincibility against random influence of globalization.

3- Civilization and the social relationsWe have proved before the mutual relation between civilization and income, but here we are going to see that living method within society members is one of the supported factors for civilization such as their actual relations and their cooperation's sprit. I believe we should apply this principle in different educational stages in a way make the school's students and students in general feel as if they are belonging to one family each one sacrifice for the other's benefit; with creating a social material box used to help poor students like providing their basic needs such as school's requirements, clothes and transportation's expenses. However, state takes upon it self the free compulsory education for all people, but I prefer to limit this advantage to those limited income people as a compensation of the opposite relation between income and granted services. When state increases their people's servicing standard, it can keep up special income's levels because when it can't offer any services it has to decrease taxes and increase worker's salaries as a compensation of that missed services.the social's cooperation in income or civilization's improvement is a very essential matter since it is refreshing a lot of those poor people and is helping the limited income's ones. In this way it indirectly replaces the state role through offering some material help that provide the civilized activation which is should be offered by the state itself. However, we shouldn't impose on society, which is outside the direct control of state, any material burdens obstacle its social duties.

Civilization, industry and commerce with incomeStudying other's civilization reality is an evaluated factor to us to study our different industrial, economical, commercial and educational activities. every nation should respect its special civilization that differ it from others in order to acquire what suit our benefits to create the civilization that able to provide an acceptable living standard. So, the 3ed world countries should unit their efforts to ask those countries that stand up for globalization to distribute the civilization's results to all 3ed world and regions located at south of equator. This action means applying globalization according to the cooperation's principle between strong and weak ones not to be a relation of master and slave. in addition to that, they should unite their economy to build a strong commerce and industry that produces a competitive products, in other words we should open up our mind on globalization before we get forced to apply it in order to know how, when, where we should start facing it, and also to know well our real investment situation to reform what is presently invested in a form that may harmonize the global competitive situation.

Those 3ed world countries shouldn't restrict themselves to organize meeting against globalization's callers, but they should face them with the powerful economic weapon which

81

Page 82: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

is nowadays more effective than that military one that biggest economic countries unfortunately have used to occupy other's lands to have their blessings directly. So, the 3ed countries should adopt the economic manner in protecting themselves from the big economy's power through creating economic coalitions and confederacies in order to find common industry, commerce and market to face that globalization and to decrease the reasons that powerful economic countries used to occupy lands by.

Directing the openness on the civilized worldwe shouldn't go too far in prompting our society to be civilized through increasing income because we can't by this open call to increase it to the global standard without our need to other's material help according to our civilization's delay; we suffer from civilization consumption's disease which may cause the complete control a lot that civilized countries upon us, the best example here is the southern republics of the separate soviet union that aren't get use of that almost 70 years occupation . These countries' people suffered from limited income although they had a lot of hidden treasures where we can find that their stockpile quantity of oil and natural gas in more than that of Kuwait and other oil's countries. This all had made those big industrial countries able to control these countries' economy through the investments they offer which are unable to be refused due to their inability to resist that civilized subjects which are completely different from those that the previous soviet unions force them to accept through his big military power.

that was completely different from what the recovered china's governments do in developing their consumption's industries and finding out the way that able them to gradual openness on world in order to male the Chinese people stitch to that openness' seared such as the self economy's policy which is the basis for world respect whereas we can find a completely different experience in that world industrial's countries which depend on the capitalistic system as a basis for building their economy then they used their economic power to build their military one, in other words they have used the closed circle between power and material. however, we still unfortunately confused about the economic reformation since we haven't plan for a special manner or even haven't depend on other's one, so we still use up other's civilization without thinking of the suitable civilized manner that suit the new global variables.

In my opinion we should plan on the far and nearby level in order to know the reformation extent that we may get and the expected wishes in scientific and convinced picture taking in our consideration that we can't reach to what we dream of in a short period, and we should depend on other's civilization to create a start point for us because these civilized ones are always announced through their museum and media that their civilization basis are from Arabic origin. That all needs more exerted efforts and sacrifices to make a radical economic reformation in order to step forward toward other world that stared understanding our justice cases because they emerge from special economic power that he needs.

The civilization's importance Anyone could wonder: is civilization necessary for man or it just a one sort of amusement? I think it is if man since Adam and eve lived without any change or modification ,but changing of needs and wishes with discovering their helping means is what pushes man to civilization which is the using of minds. So we should encourage the mental creation's process in all possible means especially material which has become the basic stone in any civilized

82

Page 83: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

development appears according to the big and strong relation between good thinking and civilization. Man here is confused will he accept to live that simple life without tired thinking? Or should he be on the contrary in order to increase his income and his life standard? This isn't an easy matter since the surrounding atmosphere does not help him to do that and there are a lot of people who want to improve their income without presenting any mental or even muscular efforts.

Any way, there should be cooperation between the state through providing the creative atmosphere and its individuals through presenting their creative thinking. In this way the state can connect income with production's quantity and quality and consequently to connect the civilization’s sort that individual get with the giving's sort that he grants. since man has become always looking for more different civilization, he technically moves to adopt the leading means for that ; this move should be controlled by the government to prevent any fault could happen that may affect negatively on his living standard. Civilization has two faces: the useful one that provides man's basic needs and develops their ability for giving like for example using civilization in physics and medical treatment, using the newest ways in education and also discovering the nature's elements to protect nation from natural disasters. whereas the unused face is man's desire to move on towards desires in which he could spend what he has in order to get them neglecting that useful civilization's requirements like for example creating the mass destruction weapons which cost a great expensive expenses that could be enough for many of his kinds which suffer from severe poverty, or man's plunging into smoking due to its industrial's technical development that ignore its users' cancer disease. This makes people reach to a stage that they prefer to live in time has a lowest level of present civilization to save their social relations and healthy conditions.

We can notice from all this that we should distinguish between the useful and unused civilization in order to invest what we were want to invest in that unused civilization in enlargement the volume of the useful one. How many countries suffer from poverty, while his government purchases weapons and development military weapons to defend her even if people live without food and drink? When you visit any war material exposition in any country you can find developed military equipment in one side and on the other side of the same hall other equipment that struggle the first ones; why we invent that first equipment if we are going to spend a fortune to pay the required protection machines and instruments.

The civilized man justifies all this by his love for civilization, so he could use that entire deadly means that provide his economic civilization because in my opinion there isn't any normal balance between fortunes' distribution and exerted effort. Man in that civilized countries afraid of decreasing his income if the whole world adopts the balance system. So, what is required here is: putting a new globalization's system according to these correct civilized measures to satisfy all societies' individuals. this is what the global commerce origination discuss in its last meeting in Qatar where conferees disagree about patent on an invention and how different medic's companies shouldn't produce the famous American medicines in cheap price that suit the development countries' capabilities.

The perfect way to go to civilizationWhat are the medical cures that we can prescribe to any developing country want to go on in civilization? In any advanced country we notice that materialism is the important part of that country's civilization, but did these counties reach this stage suddenly or they adopt social and economic policies to reach to what they are right now? did they depend on themselves or on others to reach to that amount of civilization ( economic power)?the answer of course

83

Page 84: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

appears in their development's history, they have past in many different civilization stages till they reach to this advanced stage in science and technology after setting developmental plans studied their and other 's civilization reality.

So, I advance the developing countries to study their economic position in world markets and work on using their civilization reality and basis to acclimate with the whole world one because globalization is starting to exert their economy and they should well-fortified themselves against that influence of the new world system.

The civilization cooperation has two separate roads. the first : carry civilization by the civilized himself as the case when the investor set the conditions and characteristics he wishes to invest his money and experience in any foreign country; the European and Japanese producers start producing their products in countries that encouraging investment as china , India and the southern of east Asia. The second: trying to imitate the adopted preparation's stages in other countries; no doubt that the first one is the shortest way in reaching the wanted civilization, in addition to that we should do some radical change in economics' rules and legislations to attract the investors in order to accelerate the civilization's process.

Acclimation between the civilization's incitement and economic capabilities To be civilized does not mean importing other's civilized subjects, customs and sciences without depending on our stored civilized and cultural heritage in reacting with them. We should satisfaction our desires by using our efforts, so as much we qualify our selves mentally and physically as much we deserve to satisfy that desires. This can't be reached without supporting the whole society in different effective and active means which depend on work as a basic stone in getting that civilization not on subventions, loans and friendship.

Civilization in my opinion is work, work in all its sorts. So we should check out for our different material and human's abilities and capabilities to value each one of them according to its position in the whole world and strengthen this position by separating economically each subject in order to know each part's worldly position. For example we consider cotton's production as an important part of our economic mass handled on the world level starting it planting till marketing it as a raw material or totally half produced and working on the obstacles that face the presence of our production in the world markets. So, we should work on every part from our economic important parts then on the less important ones depending on the priorities, then on solving the internal economic parts that suffer from weakness in its performance quality. Reformation the internal house is a invitation to tourists to visit and spend their reserves which handle an important part of our economy" tourism" which is one treasure of others that gad has granted us. The state should also make individual feel in all means that he is the responsible for his limited income since he hasn't move towards improving that income because in my opinion individual's activity and correct movement enhance the state motive to help him and work together for economic reformation's process.

I have mentioned in this research the civilization's subject as the self motive to increase incomes' standards, and that any economic reformation's policies should adopt developmental plans care about that standards because income's power is growing by direction starting from the general spending in country's budgets till the individual spending. The civilization's retardation is an economic disease should be handled by calling up our entire singular or plural's abilities to struggle it in order to keep our selfish economic power. This is what I

84

hope from all people to request, in other words the demand of the civilization weak people from those civilized ones to cooperate with them in the exerted civilization's efforts and activities to apply globalization, and also to work on rising civilization to be well-fortified against globalization which civilized countries seek to apply. Today's war is the war of civilization so the civilized power's people can impose their economic policy on all over the world ,which should work on decreasing gradually the unused civilization volume in order to reach the wanted one to prevail its benefit and wealth all mankind.

4- The role of development in freedom's conceptFreedom has many different theories, concepts and definitions , and its lines is connected with customs, traditions and the geographic region which means environment but the most important connection is with material because man defends his home due to the material factor connection with this home in addition to other factors. So, homeland, which is full of resources and treasures, is the best mean for attracting his citizens whom make every effort to reach these riches.

The most important factors people resort to in order to improve their country's economy is keeping not that cultural, social and economic stagnancy; I mean by that unobserving the world development's stages that is happening in all life's fields whether self development or acquired one or even the development that depend on both of them. so, any mean of that ones is connected with the exerted efforts to get out of that social and economic situation that nation suffers from due to its inability to provide the life's requirements that it used to have and also due to that near and far atmosphere which surrounds it since man has become apply the globalization's principles and connect and introduce himself to other nations through today's technological means.

The material development is the basis in individual's life, but let us asks ourselves these questions: is his freedom is the basis in reaching what he wants? What is the responsible authority of providing him this freedom? Is he responsible of his using of it? Can we grant him freedom in gradually or suddenly way? Should he be given the absolute or limited freedom? Freedom in general is for everyone and not for any specific authority, so there should be an equal right in the presented freedom's quantity according to special standards in order to know what is the responsibility or duty of the individual who is granted more freedom than others. hence, there are so many questions come to mind about this freedom as a behavior should be available to make individual excels in his daily industrial and intellectual works which is part of the general creation that reflects benefits for all society's life .

The economic development has become a natural obligation on everyone who wants to enjoy his freedom according to that strong relation between freedom and development which means with economy in general. Since man is naturally disposed for his loving for material, he would feel that we are facing his freedom when we prevent him to achieve his materialistic benefits. so, we should work on preparing the suitable field that man could achieve his benefits by because when we put a studied developmental plans for reformation's process of his different life's stages we could specify his freedom's channels which make the material basis and rules that we specify for him is the groundwork in fixing freedom principle, not that bad ambition and desire which controls man's mind and his behavior in general. here we should know that it is impossible to fulfill completely the material desires for anyone in

85

Page 86: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

society because it is hard to grant freedom to every individual according to his concept of it, so we should get help from that society's establishments to fix individual's freedom as part of the society's one because this freedom is the basis in providing the healthy collective freedom as a whole. I call here the one who put the reformation development's plans to take in to consideration the sort and quantity of the freedom man should have or practice to make these plans achieve their targets.

Freedom is right and duty at the same time, we can't grant any individual freedom without call him to account how he used it in order to achieve his benefits and his society as well. So, we should decrease the number of people whom practicing their freedom without any limits through the scientific inspired ways not through violence and severity. Man can achieve a lot of material profit easily if the two executive and legislative powers unaware of this and dose not prepare themselves for this material's tendency, so they approve this man's project although it is blocking our economy's development and reformation. however, these two authorities can make a research center study the economic utility for every proposed project in order to know its production's competence in serving our national economy, and also the damages that could happen to the project's master who considers his profits according to the supporting that government provide. In addition to that this center that adopts the convincing scientific manner could prepare the substitution projects which ensure individual's benefits and society as well.

In short, there is a singular and collectivism responsibility to reform freedom; we can't call to account any individual of his wrong use of it if he lives in an economic lagging's society as the one who lives in an economic advanced one.

The connection between development and freedom& experiences Material has an important role in man's freedom, so we can control this freedom through material which is the apparent case in those people's behavior that gets on material reward due to their extraordinary exerted efforts. Material has become now a useful cure for behavior's improvement as for example when we improve the product's quality through granting some finance reward for those workers who can reach the hands' specified standard in the advanced countries. there is an old proverb says:( ask an expert not a wise man) which mean that we can't manage without of our ancestors' experience to handle the unemployment by replacing olds, who are able to work and make every effort for the required activity, with young. another category says ( the one who is trying the tried has an ruined mind) which mean that we should respect the others' intellectual acquirements to create new ones that complete them, whereas neglecting the intellectual content and depending on new one is contributing in our underdevelopment because nations can't progress without adopting the complete chain civilization's principle ( civilized respection or respecting the civilized relation within its generations) which help them to achieve that civilized acceleration, while we find the underdevelopment in nations who neglect that principle and other nations' civilization which can form the required civilization basis to fallow up others' one.

This dream can't be achieved without making every effort which is considered the price that nowadays generation must pay to get back their dignity. The society's mission here is to encourage their individuals on mastership in their work if they want to limit their freedom according to that work's sort, size, quality and benefit. since the society's intellectual elements form the available capabilities for him in granting individuals the sort and form of the

required freedom, and of course removal of one mass of these elements means decreasing that capabilities .that what will happen when we start deposing some successful men due their come to retirement age without taking in consideration that this age is not only connected with unemployment but also with different economic factors ( that what advanced countries resort to) . So, we should limit this age according to our economic reality especially that every one has two ages: the real and the temporal one. these two hardly meet in one point, most of young who are having scientific certificate haven't any practical experience of that certificate's scientific content, while in the same time we dispossess the experts and qualifiers of their work without making any study about those people practical and scientific experience comparing with young who are always call for freedom and especially the material one without having the practical capacity to enjoy that freedom.

so, we should limit that retirement age according to the present experiences not upon what is adopted in other countries which have a completely different economy from our. For that reason, I wish we made the experiences those olds have as the basis stone of scientific research centers which we need for enjoying the freedom we deserve. In addition to that, the interconnection between past and present develops the experiences that help in putting the freedom limit for society's individuals who need it for achieving the invention's process.

How to achieve successful development within freedom sphere We have said that development's process helps in providing the organized freedom, but the question here is: should not we grant freedom to people or authorities that are in charge of the development's process to success in their work? In other words, granting the freedom before work. This freedom's type is limited for special purpose and is one circle of that produced ones for other freedoms which can be resulted also from developing the economic policy. On other words, granting freedom according to special plan for economic reformation helps on expanding in granting freedoms that help in providing an economics situation in which different freedoms compete for one goal that is economy for all. we need freedom in all our work and life's fields for getting use of our abilities ,for that reason psychological advice us to leave the child when he fall down on the ground to practice his complete freedom to standup not to depend on us in his standing. However, the resulted freedom of economic development is ineffective if we haven't take into consideration the embodiment of the freedom concept to the child mind in a healthy way because the healthy development can't be achieved without the perfect and complete use of freedom.

This can be supported by education and media in order to make young's freedom behavior in general is prepared to adjust with this complicated life in a way makes him able to find some solutions for the economic obstacles that are resulted from an existing economic situation does not comply with time's requirements . this man will not definitely be drifted by his material emotions to use his freedom in a random and unstudied way, but he will modify this situation in shrewd and studied way actuated by his healthy acquired freedom which is part of society's one. so, when he is trying to protect his freedom, he is working gradually and scientifically to modify the economic situation in a way guarantees society's freedom; that is what we witnessed in some nations that understand well the freedom's meaning when some groups use their freedom to do a social act that serves all section's groups and doesn't disagree with the social serviced that other society's group do.

They believe that the collective freedom is the basis for achieving their individual's one, so they prepare a healthy study to switch to the best situation even if it achieved gradually because there isn't any specific place or time for healthy freedom. That can be proved through the fixed economic policies which adopted by different ministries for many years.

Hhowever, Syria start to adopt the gradual reformation program but it should supervise the official's use for the granted freedom's program in order to help them to go on this program and to avoid any economic delay that may be resulted either from their unscientific use of freedom or the slowdown in applying this program; this makes us resort to speedy development's jumps in order to fallow up the civilized economic development. So, we should hurry in supervision our freedom's behavior that is used in the gradual economic reformation in order to avoid changing this program and coming to economic blocks that we can manage without. The best way here for this supervision is subjecting the reformation process to the scientific research because it is the only mean that has a just, fair and neutral's judge.

The importance of education in the relation between development and freedom Economic reformation and development should be fulfilled according to civilized scientific basis nevertheless it may produce an economic damage instead of the benefit that reformers seek to. The question here is: how should we apply these scientific ways in reformation if we don't have from the beginning this ways? We are all suffered from the individual limited income, and work for increasing it from resource that resorting not from a successful economic activity. These resources could be called the illusive resources their external face is revenue and its core is taking up the income of individual who pays it without his knowledge. The best example for this is the coming out of a decree that increase the paid percentage on consular certification from 0.004% to 1.5% with the retroactivity feature for those sighed contracts before the appearance of this modification decree. This decree hasn't taken in consideration that contractors haven't included their presented prices according to the new rate which cause them a lot of losses. in addition to that any scientific analyzing for this revenue will indicate that the new offerers will add this new rate for consular certification on their cost, so what the embassies get of amounts will be paid by the sponsor departments of these tenders through the open credits for there contractors. Thus what is the benefit of this revenue which adds nothing to our economy except that it confuses the foreign companies and delayed their contracts' application. So, individual is the bearer for these behavior's results especially when these sighed contracts are related to public services, for that reason I prefer to make a scientific research for our natural resources to get used of them either by increasing their productive capabilities or by making some more local production stages to increase their prices. Furthermore, studying our productive agricultural and industrial reality allow us to know the defect and neglect's aspects and analyzing the governmental spending for handling the wasting problem. All these researches help in increasing treasury revenues from the foreign currency and local as well which cover the necessary additional expenses that treasury is taking over due to increasing the salaries o public sector's employees.

I mentioned this example to point out the scientific act in the economic reformation and the expected results of this use. choosing this or that road is conditional upon the use off our granted freedom which make us adopt the easiest way, which every body looks for, by increasing consular certification's standards meanwhile nobody prevent us of adopting hard

way, the scientific research one, that ensures real revenues, here appears the importance of freedom behavior's supervision to make it as an useful economic one.

Who is the responsible of supervision of using economic freedom?I have mentioned that the good economic environment is the productive ground for freedom, freedom of mental creation and planned work by healthy mind as the medical rule says:" healthy mind is in healthy body". The body's safety is realized by providing him the suitable conditions of food, fresh air and the requirements of present civilization life. However all these factors depend on material which means on economy in general, this economy which is operated by materialistic authorities, institutions and organizations for both private and public sectors that each one completes the other in achieving the wanted goal that is providing the freedom for individual within a healthy and growing economy? we can conclude from this that all the economic authorities , which are concerning in developing the individual's living standard, are responsible for providing the general freedom which consider the economic one its basic stone, and consequently society which is consists of different authorities is the responsible for delimitation the freedom's programs. here, not only citizen should ask his government to grant him freedom ,but also boards of directors, chambers of commerce companies& factories managers and different economic authorities in country in addition to faculty teaching staff and students guardian assemblies in schools and scientific research councils as well.

These authorities should prepare their plans and programs in a way provide freedom for the executive members themselves, and also work on connecting freedom with liability to reach the wanted goals. they should also planting in their members the soul of partnership with high authority using the freedom that their authorities grant, for example checking the purveying supervision on merchants , asking the chambers of commerce to help in reducing the economic sanctions on dissenters, putting clear criterions for dissents' types and the way of organizing its special criterions. Imagine the nice act of those chambers if they prepare a scientific study about organizing the relation between the ministry of provisioning and merchants in order to apply the noble competitor age within different sectors instead of the arresting and prison's policy which increase the departure between two parties.Moreover, these chambers are interrupted in the wrong use of merchants for their freedoms when they appear as the lawyer of merchants who are praising those chambers to decrease misbehavior of purveying ministry's supervisors to adopt a new policy that they prevent those supervisors to visit places without any news by some informers. here, I still call for adopting the competition manner between the internal trade & purveying establishments ( public sector) and the owner of the external trade's establishments and stores ( private sector), this is the only civilized manner for using the economic freedom within people ( consumers and producers).

I want to draw your attention to a very important and sensitive thing that we as businessmen are very neglectful in calling chambers of commerce to set a program for economic reformation and proffer it to government to discuss, we also have not resorted to formation special committees for every vocation that meets every week with the presence of one chamber's member who reports this vocation's problem to the chamber which reports it also to the responsible governmental authorities. The question here is: did the merchants have been deprived of practicing their freedom or it is a difficult mission they wanted to place the responsibility on the state by saying such phrases like: there is no job, our economy is very

weak and the country does not care..? for that reason every corporation is responsible of practicing its collective freedom to the benefit of its belonged individual who should always ask it to do its job for his and its benefit as well, in other words every one of them should draw the other's attention to do his required job that is the best exercise freedom to the benefit of national economy.

Understanding other's freedom as a restriction for individual one many people think that they can't be totally free without the complete freedom which could overturned to mastery meaning for unlimited freedom holder and slavery for those whom freedom exercise upon them . here appears the freedom struggle when people feel that this person is filling the space his freedom and their as well and consequently they have no place to practice their freedom in. the people who are directed through this man start to rebel against reality that their manager create and impose it upon them and to call him to get back their ripped off freedom. the manager here has two choices either he ignores the freedom caller and by this he loses the successful administrative character and affects negatively the work's sort, or he modifies his freedom's policy by reduce its distance to make room for others' participation in voicing their opinion about the work's policy which was ruling when there was only one freedom controls them.

We can notice here a very important matter which is: freedom is connected strongly to confidence because person's behavior is reflecting his work's rightness especially when there is coherence within the different behavior to reach to one wanted goal (coupling speeches with actions). when man use his freedom in work, he does many behaviorisms start with connection with others (either natural or human creatures) then the directions for use of his mental and organic abilities in contact and react with it to achieve a certain act, then acting with this executed behavior to change it to another one which could be the last goal or one of the leading goals to the last one. The psychoanalyst here should discover the person's psychological type who make these different sort and form behaviors. so judging on competence the freedom's use for special purposes and its owner practice for a special material benefit within the general benefit for society is fulfilled not only through revealing of one circle of that behavior ones that connect each others , but also through studying these circles according to each work achievement. moreover, knowing the freedom's use limits should depend on a studied principles because hastiness in judging on any person's freedom could affect the national economy and turned around the reformation role to just an destructive one. As a result, we should aware of the importance of economic development as the basic in practicing freedom. This development should of course be based on studied scientific principles in order to be able to set clear rules for healthy individual's behavior.

5- The woman's economic role There is an old category says: "every great man must have a woman support him". She plays many important roles beside man where she was the wound bandager in prophet "Muhammad" army the holder of Islam's mission; we can find some women who are either just fighters like ALkhansaa or volunteering some of their sons to be martyrs for the sake of their lands. She is the hero's' factory who defend their lands in Palestine and south Lebanon. There are also writers, authors, poetess, scientists and politicians. she has in short an important role as man in any society ,so we should respect and honor her business in different social sides, and I will talk about her important role in every stage of society's ones.

Woman's role in familysince mother is carrying her child of nine months, suckling him and bringing up man who is the active economic mean in any society, we should care this mother before and after her marriage because technology can not replace its creator (man) whom we should cultivate as plant since the raise of seed in soil till the picking process as the category says" as you plant as you harvest". this category which can be considered as economic rule could applied on our different works since it is representing quality , in other words as much man improves his work as he can get benefit of its results, so we should facilitate marriage process through family scientific research centers can accept the information of any man and woman want to give birth to a family in order to reform their wrong emotional path and to work on judging this marriage which care about family's benefit and the national economy as well. However, in advanced countries we find their special civilization which replaced that centers in the developing ones that haven't the required establishments to care the children in a way keeps their economic production after the parent's failure in fulfillment their economic duty towards them. Here appears the importance of that center in the developing countries as the good preparation for forming fetus in woman's womb in order to make him young and then a vocational man serves his country's economy in his prepared suitable field.

This scientific center (family center) is one of the scientific centers that related t the central research one for setting the developmental plans for our different social and economical activities. for that reason, we can't acquire any vocational man and put him in his right position without planned preparation from the very beginning since this wanted over child's work is the basis in reformation some developmental plans and also a support for new ones. So, whether we like it or not we have to interfere in the family's life before its formation to avoid any parent's future acts could be considered as a burden on society as a whole.

We should mention here that the dropping rate of divorce is not necessarily indicates the success of marriage's process because in many cases this marriage is continuing to respect only traditions and customs since divorce is unaccepted social's process, that could be called the forcible marriage which is to live and to comply with society's wish without considering the negative results that may affects children later. Moreover the parent's culture before and after marriage is a very important matter to aware the meaning and importance of formation the family. This culture could be obtained through so many means such as: media, education social visitors and opening night centers that interested in enlightenment woman in general and helping her in choosing her partner, or teaching her a special vocation. These factors are the family lives supportive and also the helping hand for the perfect treatment with her children.

It is obvious nowadays that material has the big and the most essential role in man's psychological case when a lot of problems and confusions happen due to the families' financial straits ,so the family here finds that woman's work is the best way for passing that problems especially when woman play the role of finance minister who is responsible for spending and distributing the monthly revenue in its different types and forms including the children's personal expense taking in consideration the social level for family, school and section as well. doing this job force us to adopt two major factors :the first one is rehabilitation mother at least vocational in a way make her has a vocation can help her husband on taking over costs of living, and maybe to create small cooperative foundation

91

consists of family's members. As for example the sewing vocation in which she can work in her house with the helping of her children to make her house as a workshop improve the living standard of the family's members. This case is completely different if that family depends on only the husband salary in the limited income families. I witness this case in my industrial life where the whole family was working in the knitting field which produce the tricot through the distributed machines on mothers in their houses and even more when the importers these machines resort to import special house machines can mothers work on, by this way they can solve a social problem which was the reason of many psychological problems that family's members suffer from.

Mothers' special schoolsit is usually in Arab world countries to marry girl in a very early age(14 or even less) so most of them stop at this level of education due to the fact that consider every girl is going to marry and she dose not need education, this is the cultural custom that is adopted from the beginning. This custom is not accepted right now when the civilization development has reached in the last fifty years to that level of advance where we witness the space invasion, using color pictures and using computer& email as a fast and instant mean for connection. man also makes good progress in airplanes industry's to approach distances, in addition to that great medical discoveries that increase the civilization dissimilarity within countries and consequently the academic attainment that woman has to acquire in that previous atmosphere has become without significance in the present one.

The question here is: how we consider the elementary education sufficient where the global education has become under suspicion? For that reason, we should build up her continuous civilization sprit through focusing on moral educational studying via media (radio& television) and publishing a woman periodical magazine presents special researches about the marital problems and the suitable solutions, and the best way of treatment between husband and wife and also with children in their different ages. This treatment should be connected to schools' one and also to the different social establishments' one (sport establishments, libraries cultural centers), now since mother is forming the essential axis for that connection, we should cultrate her very well to provide the suitable and wanted connection within these institutions which are considered the integral unit in upbringing the conscious cultivated generation.

So, reformation the essential mean of every generation (woman) is the basis for society reformation. advanced countries adopt this principle where woman has an important economic role in the reformation process, while in developing countries woman should be economically prepared by educating and rehabilitant her to make her having the substitutive mean in case of loosing the essential one which is absence of husband for any family's duty reason.

Woman's role in civilized world and in ours as well there is no doubt a strong relation between the success of woman as a mother and the preparation stage of this woman for civilization ( material and immaterial) taking in consideration that the immaterial one has lost a lot of its positive effect due to material factor's weakness in it , so the hard material conditions of any employee for example, who could be polite, well mannered and honest person, shall make him abandon all these properties to fulfill the urgent matters such as cure or food has to offer to his family as the old

92

aphorism says " poverty is on the pint of atheist". So, if we are looking to guarantee civilization for man we should comply with his material factor to avoid loosing his moral values which are the essential basses in the real civilization. For that reason, we should grant woman all the supportive factories to perform her social duty correctly because asking for needs and help from others subject her to ignominy and shame's stands she can manage without; these stands affect the people psychology that she cares and plans to make them the wanted future generations. these factors depend on cultivation her, treating her respectively and holding symposiums and lectures to find the suitable work that dose not take her away from children especially in the countries in which government does not present the necessary services that help children and youths in their upbringing.

The importance of mother in the developing countries in more than that in advanced ones due to the fact that considers our need to an educated mother in more important from economic point of view than work of mother in different economic fields. She is the one who brings about men which means the future hands, so to educate woman to work in the future without limiting this work's priorities is uncivilized act and harms the country's economy in general. here, since we need qualified men can lead country's future and not only giving birth to them to increase only using up, we should supplying her in the family founding's sprit that full of love and harmony within their members to build up economic generation in the full sense of the word.

Moreover, it is unaccepted to care and up bring children through any woman (not the mother), or to teach children through an outsider teachers. How lovely if the mother culture is able enough to replace that private teacher and raising her children and care about them. when a test has been made for children have been up bring in their mother's side and others in nursery school or at babysitter, it manifests that the first group are living in more love for their family and relatives and also more psychological stability than the second one because mother is knowing the customs, wishes and ambitions her child more than any teacher who accompanies him in a specific time without forgetting her integral role for school which made her considered by poets the real school that create any child's character.

Finally, I think that making the civilization principle based on pushing women to work outside their house is a wrong explanation for it. civilization is to build up the generation that able to reform economy and set the healthy economic plans to reflect benefits on the new generations themselves; it is un believable that woman has to work and cause unemployment for her husband and children as well, so why would mothers contradict their children benefits rather than studying well those children future's situations?

Financing woman to avoid her working against her children's benefitsI have said that woman's works full time on her children upbringing is the best thing she can do for economy, but how should we apply this rule with the feeble family material situation? So, we should provide her the material support by modifying the husband's income to remove any material need and ensure the family unity. this does not mean that she has no job in society, however she can practice some social and charities , or even she can work in her house to provide for family an additional income accordance with her vocational and cultural capabilities for example she could be a writer, journalist, translator or one member in a assembly take upon itself one social activity of any section such as educating the neglectful students in one or more subject , making trips for children or setting up sewing workshop

93

Page 94: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

teaches the section girls sewing vocation. here, mixing between children upbringing and practicing the social activities imparts her the practical and scientific experience that helps her performance in the upbringing's process; she is either has a fallen cultural standard or has a good one but needs to mix science with work to make sure of the realistic range of theoretical information she have get because many of these theories are unsuitable enough to apply in the practical life.

Some women have hard acclimated psychology with children behavior, the best cure here is social connection with others which changes her life and modifies her atmosphere that she could not get along with. this house work also is in most cases better than the outside work because the civilization needs have become incite youths to get them and veil the experiences and efforts they should offer to get these needs, so the goal of woman's friction in house work is children and the efforts' quantity that parents grant and the pains they are exposed to improve children's living standard.

She is in short the best school that present knowledge in simple and easy way to limited income's families and is considered the best cure for many social problems especially when children don't care about the exerted effort by parent to provide the children whatever they need. for that reason, the continuous coexistence for better and for worse between parents and children is very important for economy because it produces youths that appreciate work and depend on themselves in building up a self-made family, it makes also the parents in full awareness of their children wishes and hopes in order to help and support them for the vocational and scientific authorities which provide them the suitable job with the cooperation with the research center that is prepared to provide the practical coherence between wishes and jobs.

The mother's role from an economic point of view is presenting help in the developmental plans 's success through presenting conscious generation know that the resulted income of practicing the job he wish is better of that of unwished one; the essential reason is that he can develop and improve the product he produces in the first case and his inability in the second one in other word we should teach our children the performance's quality in all their works to get the living standard they look for.

The relation between woman's work and unemployment The worked group in the society is varying between 17 - 60 years and out these ages workers are exceptional case, this is what prevailing in advanced countries. These countries that are able to comply with man's needs in a specific age and they also provide an easy life in his work time when he is executing a useful role for his country's economy. In the same time, they do not manage without the practical and scientific experiences that are resulted from a profitable work between 17-60 ages in away allow them to get benefit of any man who could continue his scientific giving. Moreover many of these countries have made the retirement age at 55 instead of 60 since they have that large experiences and a very strong economy enable them to increase the amusing burden that they offer to their people.

In this economy the individual's economic power is measured by his experiences' hoarded since his birth till he becomes young according to the society's employment market. This society is always supervising its plans and never distinguishes in sex of inhabitant (male & female) or in the regain he lives in since the developmental policy spread over all country's

94

lands. here, since any economic reformation's success depends on annihilation on unemployment in its two types (disguised and apparent) we should adopt the priority principle in setting the hiring policy in which its standard taking in consideration experience, science and the individual's social responsibility; I mean here, it is nonsense to find job for Youngman while there is a paterfamilias having the same qualifications sitting in his house without job. In other words, we should start finding job for people who are taking the responsibility of others' sustenance; this is the rule which is applied in our military service where the sustainer one has been postponed as long as he has the sustenance property.

This sustenance is a very important factor in society's building up ones especially in the eastern societies in which the paterfamilias still responsible of their children and even their grandsons. On the contrary in the western ones the state takes man upon itself since his 17 age easing the material burdens of the sustainer who could be man or a divorced woman, widow, woman lost her husband for any reason. So, the priority's aim in controlling unemployment is hiring the sustainer woman especially when her husband was one of martyrs in order to rescue those families from poverty and ensure them a good living standard.

Regarding unemployment problem at young, the priority should be of course for males because as I have said the family's material responsibility is upon man's shoulder in our society. so, why we do not increasing the woman's rehabilitation to raise her fruitful productive abilities in helping man through teaching children and doing a lot of missions that employees have to resort to others to do them such as sending clothes to the ironing and cleaning institutions, bringing food from restaurants .. etc? She spends her salary on these things this is the disguised unemployment with one's own eyes. In this case the woman who unneeded that job should help her family without abandoning her basis job which is the mother role. I want you to think in this experiment, doubling man' salary for some families with assigning woman to do all these works, which she used to resort to others to do, in specific time, comparing with other families in which the two parents have a job; we will definitely realize that the material and social situation for the handled family is much better than the second one, in addition to the product's quality for paterfamilias in the first family is also better than it in the second one.

We should also care in our priorities in reformation family's material situation that any job we offer her she can start doing it in her house, this is obviously clear in the advertisements of the university graduators who have begun their educational services through the private lessons at houses, here what apply on this way could reflect on many other works. Here, this increment has performed double services, the first: keeping the family's social situation since she runs an oriental specifications and inborn character family, the second: she has become a material help for her husband who is the only sustainer for family. any way ,studying the woman's economic situation is differing from one society to another and from economy to another as well taking in consideration that the basic role for her is to be generation's up bringer including to prepare the future mothers who will contributing in the country economy's progress.

The suitable vocations for woman No doubt that any job prepares woman for upbringing her children and marital home in general is a great one so usually she inclines to feminine techniques such as cooking, embroidery, sewing, painting, sculpturing, decoration and also philosophy to know the way she should treat her children by. She also wishes to learn the slight works as secretary

95

Page 96: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

(computer, classification and accounting) and also to learn the restaurants and hotel's works. It is not reaction depending on the initial distribution for vocations between males and females without any kind of competition which could be resulted when females doesn't comply with the specified vocations and begin to competitive males in their vocations. this distribution in my opinion helps a lot indirectly to avoid every kinds of unemployment because employment size in this case approximate to needs one; it also helps men in taking their responsibility not to take care of children in house while their wives are doing any work their husbands can do it better than them.

Woman had replaced man due to lake of male's race within World War II, this forces the employment's supervisors to hire women in men's works (very difficult jobs) such as mining, coal mine and oil fields. charging woman in man's work is meaningless in countries marked by that the men's rate is greater than women, and also the man's monthly income who is sustainer for five people is not overtaking 150 $ while his money spent is many times his income. in addition to that many of educated men either they don't know well a specific work or work in some jobs that require a very small amount of science and experience , this is causing a lot of loosing in work sphere as a result of placing men in unsuitable positions.

Here, should we grant jobs for both men and women without discrimination, or as logic calls for increasing men's income according to the qualification, experience and mental creation? of course the man who is having an acceptable income is the one who is able to be a successful paterfamilias be providing his family's members a comfortable atmosphere full of love sprit , and depending on equality and justice principle in order to make every one of them earns the necessary and luxuries needs.

Man cannot alone provide all the family needs without the woman's help, he works full time for exterior affairs and leaves the interior ones for her. For that reason, it has been said that woman is representing the minister of the interior in her house, and this what I assure in the beginning of this research of devotion of woman to her house management. So you cannot imagine the mess that may stop at family when both father and mother are very busy outside their house as the case when the mister of the interior interferes in the exterior affaires neglecting his job in protection our security and building up the special relation within society's individuals. any way, the educated cultivated woman can help man in directing his income to get the largest possible benefit of spending it, in the same way cultivating her economically can be considered one sort of controlling loss because leading expenses of the family helps in leading the nation's one which is what we are in dire need of in our economic reformation.

The importance of woman's work Some people are going to accuse me in reaction because I don't encourage any equality between man and woman. I reply on this accusation that I'm supporting woman to do different studies and works in case of needy to sustain her children, on the other hand in the cases where there are no need for her work I prefer to specify her in very useful works which are upbringing the future generation.

Contribution in developmental plans that aim to find the economy's suitable hands is a very important act. it needs the cooperation between man and woman especially that the human race is the basis in the different kinds of inventions, the proof here is mastering man over his computer since it is man's making .humanity needs always for its intelligent as the case of the advanced countries which support their intelligent and get used of that small device

(computer) which has a big capacity on saving and understanding. So, woman has to take care of computer through taking care of its owner to putting into practice this aphorism: "the healthy mind is in healthy body". In globalization system the woman's educational role depend on preparing for her children the future connection with the outside world to avoid them subjection for other strong people's slavery. as imam ALI said ( bring up your children for all times) the Islamic upbringing of course has fulfilled by mother who is the natural closest person to her child in his different stages thereby some scientist have said that there are two raising stages one is inside the womb and another external one when mother embrace her child. Her educational and cultural responsibility begins in her womb, so the government should take its responsibility also and help her in providing her the needed education especially that the state starts practically educating children in the age of seven.

Here, we should educate woman according to the new world civilization to make her able to prepare her child to the globalization stage. this culture is increased and completed the school role through group of section mothers who can create a committee that includes different field of specializations like: math's , engineering and natural sciences; here mother has two role the first is general upbringing and the second is completed by those committee's members according to each one sphere. This will also help the teaching staff's members in getting the full reports about any new student especially when this report is considering the traditions and customs this student has up ringed in, and also his ambitions, wishes, intelligence standard. These essential acts must be accompanied with preparing the curriculums according also to the global standard in order to grant coherence between mother's culture and the teaching staff's one.

In my opinion, when we call woman to operate man's functions, we are destroying her essential educational role; this role which is imposed on her due to the cohesion between her and her child and also due to her severe longing for him which is a natural phenomenon god grant it for all his creatures. We can see in most of animals the mother is responsible of keeping their children safe which is of course differ from human's emotion, and also differ between cultural human and uncultured one when the emotional supporting is directed to the child's benefit while the other may damage him educationally speaking. for that reason, the psychologist are working on studying the natural relations between mother and her child , dividing mothers to groups then observe the reaction of each group's behavior upon their children to describe their behavior types ( what is emotional and what is not). This study allows us to unmask new behaviors that can help researchers in developing the cultural and educational researches that should be granted for woman.

Society's sight for woman Since woman is the basis element in upbringing future men, we should grant her all our respect and estimation and consequently we should change our treatment with others according to their goodwill and feeling for parents; this is the commercial standard of the new person we would like to build up a serious relation with. here we notice that the commercial information department have become consideration the merchant's social situation one of the important information that merchant want to know about any other merchant or foundation as well.

Society has granted woman big social and political positions such as: membership in parliament, ministry and announcer in television according to each one's cultural capabilities. Now I want to clarify that the woman's cultural benefit can spread to include all sections individuals through formation an educational associations care about the students whom their

material conditions prevent them of learning in school. Here I may subject to some criticisms: how you consider the woman's essential role is upbringing while you are taking now about her participation in different social and economic life aspect. The answer is: her role in this field doesn't affect her essential one; on the contrary it arises her social and scientific position and grows her cultural knowledge that is required for her children upbringing. In addition to that some fields are flourishing by woman who may overtop man; this increases her position because she is practicing a very civilized and advanced works not that normal routine ones. The lasting respecting of man towards woman grant her needed importance which could be obtained through subjecting marriage process to morals and education standards not to demagogy ones because the advanced society is the one that grant her respect ness and also the management of the family's life side. in other words although respecting man for woman guarantee her children's respect ness, it should also accompany with the society's one; that is what we notice in the civilized countries ( Japan , china .. ) when man treat woman in all respect when they met at work or at one of government's department, he is even bowing to her in salute . here it should be a preparatory period allows the two partner to get recognize on each other before any marriage's process, or we can also presenting each one's characteristics and qualities to marriage research's center in order to get the suitable answer that guarantee passing the up normal condition which every one of them try to expose before fulfillment that marriage's process.

Arabian womanThe Arab world people should unification their efforts to upraise the Arabian woman's position through setting up Arabian research center; this center studies the reasons of her lagging and the possible suggestions according to our available abilities. I call to put up a common Arabian foundation works on cultivating the Arabian woman and educating her upbringing principle with clarifying to her the marriage and procreation meaning. This foundation could be connected to other branches in the Arab world's different directions, then fallowing up the obtained results of applying the emplaced suggestions which are encouraging the intermarriage on the Arab world level and activating the Arabian people's solidarity. This activation is flourished by removal that big economic difference between the husband's country and the wife's one, in other words granting weak economy the strong capabilities that make both people have the required coherence which consequently provide the Arabian economic integration. it is nonsense that woman in some Arabian places lives in ignominy and shame while there are a lot of Arabian capabilities in other places forgetting that to take care of woman is to strengthen the Arabian new generation. The common Arabian work should be awakened through different foundations aim to find the Arabian solidarity within women on the cultural, material and immaterial levels. Woman is half of society so reformation her position is a reformation for half of the Arabian society which is still considering woman one of its goods. So, the Arabian money and efforts should be directed to these parts to make woman able to get some of her rights to depend on them to bring up new generation group completely different of that previous one.

We should go back to depend on educating mothers through embodying the curriculums some subjects that is conserved with the mother's relation with her children , the relation of love and harmony could make him able to know well his abilities to decide the work's sort he wish for. So we should formation Arabian committee made up of mothers connecting with that scientific center or that common Arabian committee in order to alternate information and to protect Arabian woman who is the connection ring between Arab world young and that committee. We specified here woman to do that social role (governess) which don't need a

98

Page 99: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

muscles or agricultural and industrial experience, on the contrary needs a lot of compassion and sympathy that encouraging and developing young to apply their dreams.

The woman upbringing's role is the most elevated works that she can do to form an economic generation replacing the present dependent lazy consumer one. Here I accept the reaction characteristic due to my big feeling of love and responsibility for the Arabian nation's benefit. this benefit which is provided by woman who is considered an economic treasure we should take care of ; she is the computer that feed her children one , so as much we grant this computer the wanted information as much we get new generations supplied with by useful economic minds.

Finally, in this research I adopt the idea of hiring woman in the elevated works only and put her aside the works which man practices because woman is equal man in duties and rights not in the hard works which need a lot of muscle efforts or tough working hours take her away from her children whom need only her love.

6- EnvironmentI can definite environment as every thing is surrounding man's body and every thing get in it .caring about the different sides and aspects of environment has not become as luxury or nonessential thing, but it is now an urgent need that well out from cohesion the negative or positive environmental effects to the individual's life. So, money that is spending to keep this environment is not enough and need to be doubled to reform the reality that the human's activity leaves behind. This activity has troubled down the environmental element accelerant where we can clearly notice the big changes and the retraction that happened for the weather's conditions and consequently for man's health as a result of that decline.Here, it is necessary to study in details this reality in order to specify the wanted desire from all (individuals and establishments) and to strengthen this through different techniques and means.

The importance of environment's protection The previous definition clarifies that environment is integrated human in a way make every one of them is just part from the other, so since this environment has been shaped to serve human, he should take care of it properly for his personal benefit.

The relation between civilization and environmentThere is no doubt a big and strong relation between civilization and environment because as much the civilization rate in any country increase as much the devoted sums to protect the environmental pollution increase due to the industrial development in these countries. so there is a circular link here , the big amount of money that have been spend on the environmental protection's system are taken from the money that have been collected from the big industrial projects which contribute in the environmental pollution. On the contrary, this pollution in the development countries is caused by neglecting the cleanness matter in its inclusive concepts, the retardation in putting successful policies to handle the polluted environment, and also the occurring ignorance from settling down a lot of determental things instead of valid ones. take for example building a lot of factories in Goota area which the poets praise in its greenness, fruits and towering trees, and replacing them by new seeding in Gabal-ALsheikh where my generation can't get benefit of .moreover, the civilization delay

has done his actions in the sort and manner of imported consumer goods, sort of the build factories , and also has considered the most damaging factor for environment; the environment which has become unable to offer human any services after his severe offense for her, neglecting that it is the essential factor for his life's continuation.

The relation of environment with lifetimeSome people may find strange that every move they take they have to get help from the surrounding environment including the oxygen which refreshes their blood and take part in water (70% of man's body). Environment also provides man with meat or vegetation foods which are needed for the growing of his different organs (brain, muscles, bones and teeth), for that reasons he should take into account these things:

1- Polluting not air in different kinds of poison gazes that are resorted from industries and transportation's vehicles, in addition to the fermentation of the garbage and some chemical industries for consumer' materials. the leniency in applying the environmental rules while we are setting the developmental plans is a very dangerous matter not only on the nation that wish for reaching a better life but also on the big industrial nations ; this matter impose the cooperation within all that countries to save environment in order to save man's life.2- Increasing not the desertification standard comparing with the green lands in every country due to the importance of greenness in its different types and forms in refreshing air to do the comfortable respiratory operations. Here, the government should settle inhabitants in the deserted areas that are near the green ones with supplying them with the necessary services. This action makes us get use of those areas in responding to the rising people needs, and leaving the green ones to respond to people's respiratory and alimentary needs.3- Keeping away the using of the harmful materials in manufacturing commodities and articles or that ones which spread some material that polluted air. Every body knows that the hole these gazes have made in ozone layer is forming a big dangerous on man's health and it is the reason for existing of so many changing climates. it is also causing the rising of temperatures to unfamiliar degree could reach in some areas to 50 degrees centigrade which cause the littleness in water ( the basic source of life ) and could also cause damage to planted and yield agriculture. so, man's neglect of environment in his application of civilization has make this civilization a short-term one, for that reason all people should cooperate in directing civilization through environment's protection which is life and there is no meaning for civilization without life.4- depending on cleanness's principle: specification every garbage container in one same sort of garbage, textile materials for example in one container, glass material in another one etc... ; this way make us able to prevent some fermentation that are caused by merging zero's types with each other .the inhabitants of every building could be of the same opinion on managing periodicity the cleanness matter including the container, this action in my opinion is better than the sums that are collected to carry out the cleanness works; these works which are hardly observed due to the governmental routine in getting them. In addition to that some inhabitant may be incapable of the materialism contribution, but they definitely prefer to contribute in their personal efforts, so the teamwork sprit in keeping cleanness will help educationally in planting this phenomenon in the new generation when he sees his parents and neighbors cooperate in providing a clean living environment.We should mention here that applying the cleanness factor could be a commercial work helps the sector inhabitants on decreasing the material burden that imposed on them, not being just a waste of time as some people think. Let us take for example the zero- things classifications process which processing these materials to make them able to get benefit from (the Recycle process); the process which considers doing without these things as a wasting of the

100

economic capabilities that could contribute in achieving the lowest standard of human's contemporary life.5- restriction the population density which is definitely causing the increasing of using the harmful civilization's means in environment especially when it is completed in a very high rate in short time; this increasing will affect the developmental plans which aim to improve the dealing between man and environment . Population density for instance could fall short of increasing individual's income and also the plan of increasing the arable lands' space which are already unable to supply people with their needed foodstuffs. So, the countries which have that population density have resorted to deprive the family, which begets more than the wanted number in the developmental plans, of so many social and economic facilities and properties that are used as a voluntary weapon makes individual limits the purposeless procreation which creates unlimited economic damages.6- Forcing new industrialists to specify part of their new projects' funds to handle the environmental damages, which may resulted from these projects. So, here we cannot authorize for any new needed project without taking in our consideration the expenses we may spend to erase the resulted harmful effects of such projects. in other words the environmental burdens should be considered as one of the expenses that are included in profit and loss account in any economic utility's study, we could also set a new manufacture policy with the factories' owners to process their factories' resulted garbage and consider the spend expenses part and parcel of those recognized ones in the financial departments. So, the resulting revenue will help both the factory's owner and the government treasury as well in decreasing the paid money to process the harmful materials, in addition to handle other social issues such as providing job opportunity for big part of hands to avoid the disguised unemployment when we hired so many numbers of unneeded workers. this negative phenomenon, which is spread all over the developing countries, helps not only in increasing the goods prices and decreasing the incomes' standard, but also in weakening the national economy which should be used to remedy the environmental damages. 7- protection our selves of the damage which could be resulted from our using of the needed machines and instruments in our daily life such as the case of air pollution from the poison gazes that are resulted from imperfect combustible in cars engines and also different ones that are used in engendering the required energy for the activity of factories and transportation.8- Pollution not of the human's nourishment including water which form 70% of human's body and contribute effectively in industry and agriculture. Lack of water could damage environment, it may cause drought, uprising in temperatures and increasing air pollution's rate with dust and microbes because the flowing out water from the gathered clouds is considered an air's softening and sterilizing. however, its plenty could form the hurricanes or floods ,so man should direct his water's consumption in keeping it clean by throwing not the dirt in rivers , channels, lacks and sea shores or stop wasting it in consumption's unneeded aspects to save its continuous existence; in short, man being is connected strongly with air and water presence. finally, we should be very strict in our observation over cleanness's means in every stage of having foods starting from seeds and soils till the ready foods .this strictness could spread to cover processing garbage that are resulted from human's body in order to save that wanted healthy environment depending on keeping foods' cleanness and avoiding the damages of their resulted zero things.

The alimentary system and environment Caring about our health is an environmental activity by itself because the right choosing of the food's sort or kind helps us in strengthen our bodies against the environment's harmful factors. we as human beings have caused damage to environment through using our bodies

101

Page 102: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

and brains ,so we have to use them also to reform as much as we can of what we have done according to this maxim: "the healthy brain is in healthy body".

We should mention here that providing the healthy alimentary system hinders our use of so many made cures and indications, in other words taking the natural alimentary 100% is healthier and resistance for environment's negative factors than that made ones. Let us compare between old generations and new ones or even the nomads and urban cities; we find so many differences regarding disease's resistance, bodies' strength and wisdom. We also should be aware that taking the fresh foods in vessels which are devoid of the chemical materials that reacting with foods or leaving off using the clothes which are made up of unnatural fiber avoid us a lot of damages for the respiratory system and leather as well.environment at first treats with man honestly and lovely , but he is the one who has caused the present damages especially in the unnatural alimentary field ; he starts using all his mental and body power in the commercial and industrial business without leaving any sufficient time for himself to interact with nature and environment , which provide his life's continuity. man is initially insistent, he wants to get the results fast even if it is at the expense of his health, for that reason we are witnessing now all the family's members plunging into their business and eating the ready-made foods or resorting to the fast preparing sets such as microwaves, which are exterminate on these foods' benefit and also may cause some opposed diseases can hardly be cured.

I want to address my speech here to man in general: man you should make every effort in your treating with environment and you should not depend on manufacturing or marketing the flashing civilized means. I wish you resorted to care about marketing the new agricultural products and give up the using all what may damage man's health starting with seeds' agriculture till the access of healthy living bite to people's mouths.

Environment and tourismAny nation preserves on its fresh environment can achieve a big success in tourism's field because environment here can contain all what tourist needs from fresh air, sweet water, security and psychological relax. Syria as a deep-rooted country should take more care about the attractive factors for tourists; this needs the cooperation of ministry of tourism, culture and health to prevent any possible environment disease on our lands. however, there are many factories that have been built in our green areas such as the area of Gota, which feed Damascus with special flavor fruits, when they built lead pencils' factory which is pumping the poison sulfur material, or even in Tartus where they build up an cement factory at the expense of olive trees; so how would patients travel to these two relaxation places to breathe the fresh air and to enjoy the green sights?.

These mentioned ministries should form a conjunct committee able to make the required visits to all the touristy and archeological areas to oversee the cleanness of their roads, houses and hotels. This committee can paint these area's walls in white color to guarantee the tourists' healthy from any harmful flying flies, and arrange some competitions within these different areas to grant the best environmental and cleaned area great rewards. Moreover, this committee could not only watch over the international connection mission with the tourism field's operating to know their opinions about our tourist's systems, but also the applying environmental procedures in the touristy countries. This action makes us able to know how we should improve our environmental tourism since now environment has become the man's chief concern everywhere, so tourism has become so failure, unused factor in those places which are infected environmentally and security as well.

102

Page 103: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

The responsible authorities of environment I think that creating a specific department or ministry to be the responsible of environment is not enough because all society's individuals must take their responsibility as well. So, traffic police have to be very strict in keeping an eye on the engines that are spreading carbon dioxide, and in breaching every person throws dirt in the street. Here, let me ask this question: why we do not resort to create a cleanness committee in every sector to be responsible of buildings' stairs, walls and the part of the street that their building lookout? This way avoids them the cleanness tax that impose a financial penalty on every individual who breaks this matter's conditions. this individual is responsible by himself of the cleanness of the street by opposing those people who consider the street's wall as board for their silly writing or even consider the street's ground as the containers of their dirties and food's bag.Moreover, every employee have to take his responsibility over cleanness; the cleanness of toilets, offices and even department' paths.

So, every ministry or governmental department should set up a committee takes upon itself the supervision's missions over cleanness, and isolates the sick employees from the healthy ones in order to avoid any infection within them. In short, when we popularize the necessity of having a clean environment on all society's individuals, we decrease as much as possible its harm over man's health.

The relation between environment and upbringing & culture Having a cleaned environment is one of the factors that protect man's health and safety, so parents should provide it to their child since his birth till the school's stage. They should teach him to wash his hands with soup before and after having food, and to teach him to treat other a good treatment either by actions or words. moreover, they should teach children to take care of their toys by keeping them cleaned and placed in their usual position, and to direct their children in choosing their toys according to special moral and social goals in order to appreciate these things' importance; this is because getting easily and extremely amounts of anything he wants will make him a irresponsible guy in the future.

Now, let move to the stage of school's stage which is completed the good environmental home work. The educators should study his homey customs in order to treat him according to them, so if these customs were good they will grow them correctly, while if the customs were bad the educators will correct both parents and child since any person's personality is identified in his school's day's time.

So, practicing the correct environmental upbringing is not only useful for educator who would revise his own behavior to improve it for the student's benefit, but also for the student who is now apart from the bad behavior of that educator. Here, the supervisors in school should practice the arousal pf an interest's manner by making some cleanness competitions to grant some rewards to the best class and the best student in tidiness and cleanness, in addition to some rewards to those students who present any environmental suggestions to the school's management that must be their good feature example.

The scientific research and environment

103

Page 104: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Environment today has become the man's chief concern since it is affecting his life negatively or positively. So, man should study its effects very well to specify the suitable procedures that must be taken to minify the actions that increase its harmful effects. here, we can liken it to a mirror that reflects the destruction man's results ,but the difference between them that mirror reflect the human's singular work while environment reflects more effective damages of one human lump or the whole humanity.

The treatment of human with environment is subjected to the materials that he offers for its ones, so the scientific research center adopts studying and analyzing these materials to prevent human of presenting any harmful materials, which could damage environment and consequently the human's economies. This center could specify the environment's general policy including the curriculums, media, cultural programs and symposiums, magazines, newspapers and movies; in other words applying the environment protection's policy and our treatment environmentally with each others using the seen and heard media. In short, we should not allow environment to affect our different developmental plans especially the economic ones, and we should make this center responsible for protecting these plans from its natural effect (floods, earthquakes, and volcano) and the unexpected ones as well.

Environment's nationalismwe all now that the expenses of environment protection means, which are applied in the big industrial countries, are very expensive for any alone Arabian country that is unable to place a strategy avoid him any possible effect on its developmental plans. However, Arabian nation seek to find a common wording through league of Arab States, boycott Israel' office, then Arab Writers union and other cooperation wordings that all aim to strengthen the Arab's situation after the failure of all the efforts that aim to originate the Arabian joint liability. Here, we should accept that existing of anything is better than unexciting of anything.Now, the Arabian countries should resort to finance a scientific center takes upon itself the protection of environment in these lands, or to finance bringing about institutions in the present universities to habilitate the required technical cadre for working in the environment's field. Since environment has no specific limitation, this center could be connected with other global ones in order to provide their material support in financing the costly scientific research' operations, and to get benefit of the advanced researches of the big rich countries in this field.

Environment and automation Applying the computer's system to organize the environmental works helps us in inserting all its effects over the humanity factors, and programming the environmental scientific information according the reached results in the civilized countries. this computer center, which supply the research one with the needed information for accelerate its researches, can be connected - through internet- with other environmental computer centers in other countries to exchange of views in order to find the suitable solutions for the problems we have faced.This center could connect- through local network- all the authorities that are responsible for environment to make it reach for all people like for example knowing the weather forecast which is very useful for businessmen. In addition to that, we could consider this center as a consultation one which helps us in escaping from the environmental damages, and our suppliers of the correct numbers in calculating the expense of these expensive environmental works.

Industry, commerce and environment

104

Page 105: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

The development of industry and commerce is always accompanied with the increasing of garbage, unused matters and the resulted gazes during the transmutation's operations; these operations of course decrease the environment's capability in protecting us. here we should consider the equation that one of its party must be for environment advantage (our advantage), we for example cut trees for using them in our heating and other woody industries forgetting their important role in improving the environment's conditions; so we should set an annual plan to provide our need of woods without making any environmental damage through finding out some substitutive industries. This balance imposes on us to grant environment a compensation of what we have taken through planting some new trees and decreasing the damages of our used materials upon environment.We could exploit the desert lands after servicing them for building up factories or handling these factories resulted garbage. so, the inductors should form an institution takes upon itself supplying their factories with the required equipment to decrease their garbage effects on environment by building up the premedical units for them, and to prepare the environment special institutes in order to habilitate their workers and managers to aware the importance of cleanness, tidiness and arrangement factor inside the industrial foundations. You may ask: what is the relation between environment and system? I think that organizing the raw material's entrance across special paths to be stored separately according to the applied production's stages, and finally coming out goods in organized way in special paths; this arrangement will decrease man's expose for the danger of factory's air pollution, and also the related occupational accident.

This issue seems more importantly in foodstuffs' industry because the producer has to produces a food product that is free from microbes according to the required healthy conditions. These industries' resulted fermentations should be taken into consideration due to their damages on these factories' workers and the living surrounding as well. The so- called the healthy factories (hospitals, dispensary and clinics....) should be very strict in protecting environment from their garbage through specifying them in some suitable containers , and should select the suitable location for unpacking these garbage in since their quantity could reach to some tons.

finally I would like to mention that the cleanness of clothes, bodies and production means helps in protection environment because some people's malodor may muddy the factory's atmosphere in general and worker in particular, take an example the foodstuffs' factories, which may carry these worker's dirtiness to consumers; so the chemical cleanings have become so important for providing the factory's cleanness and the tools & used machines as well.

Media & advertisement and environmentAdvertisement in all its different type (direct & indirect) has become the most powerful mean for enlightenment people environmentally. The direct one is specified for advertised subject only, like for example advertising of the probable damages of polluted foods or protecting leather from the severe exposing of sun rays; the indirect one however is connecting the basic subject of the advertisement with another one related to the environment issues. this last type of advertisement is not only attracting the watcher due to his nature on changing in subjects and forms, but also is helping in decreasing the advertisement's cost due to the advertisers' contribution regarding time and place.

The advertisement should harmonize with the culture and civilization of spectator, so if we like to speak about the important of water for life, we can't compare for example between the

105

Page 106: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

result of the chemical analysis of scanty soil and another watered one; we can replace that with a woman can't complete her cook's stage due to lack of water in the tap. this matter is completely different in the industrial advanced countries where they advertise about the same subject by clarification the importance of water for industry and the needed amount of water for every sort of industry's ones in addition to clear up the reflection of water's lack on the production's process and on the national economy as a whole.

As a result, talking about environment is a very complicated matter and needs so many pages because it has become the chief concern for most of scientists and researches. Environment has proved for man that he is unable to face some of its natural disasters (floods, earthquakes ...) in order to discipline him and to educate him that he should decrease his carelessness for it. I mentioned in this study the necessarily of protecting it presently to make the present generation enjoys of what has left of its life, and also to rebuild the new generation environmentally. This rebuilding should depend on our scientific experiments to be the basis for setting the cultural and educational programs that aware man of his offense for environment. I also specify that the responsibility of protecting environment fall upon everyone according to each one's position , culture and power, then I call for using the media in all its different types to make people realize that their irresponsible works is the only reason of any possible environment's damages.

I clarified the importance of subjecting the environmental works for the scientific research and automation system which both are the instrument for any side of our social life ones because they can reveal the environmental mistake we practice and the environmental damages we suffer. The cooperation between those two instruments could guide us to the suitable cure for any possible damage, and could inform us of solutions of other civilized countries through their connection with the global scientific centers.I also mentioned two important factors: the first is related to the alimentary factor that make our bodies fit for the environmental resistance and develop our mental faculties for treating its problems, while the second one is related to the tourism factor which helps our economy's growing through increasing the tourist's rate who wish to visit the old ancient places that accompany with a healthy environment.

Finally, I hope I have been successful in giving this subject its importance since it is considered nowadays today's issue which is summed up with this aphorism "as you treat environment it treats you".

Chapter Four

1-The Income:The elixir of life for every human being on the face of earth is material by instinct, purposes, and dreams. so, he needs it to continue his life and develop the way of his life which makes him strongly attached to it, and in the Holy Koran was mentioned that {money and sons are the most beautiful things in life}. The Devil could seduce Adam and Eve to get them out of the obedience of God by through the material where made the material hops achieve through touching the prohibited tree. God also made the material a basis for the eternal existence in paradise if they did not touch this tree, also all the divine laws dictated to how to use the material for the interest of human being. At the same time, they showed the bad ways of using it, which lead to the harm of man’s health even it exposed to the social harm, which can affect the human being who God wants him to be noble and generous.

Form this introduction, we see that the relation between man and material is very strong, and if we want to make the deed of any person useful we should resort to the material which is considered one of the effective positive elements for the understanding among people, so, the friendly relation becomes strong or weak according to that. Thus, how can we move away from material in our life? Moreover, this is what seems so hard to achieve, even if some faiths like Sufi claims the ability of achieving it. However, our response to this claim is: what is the product that the Sufi offers and what is the relationship that can be created with the others by following this faith? This is the same situation, which can be noticed in some ascetics who claim that they can stay away from using any civilized thing. Things that make them feel the favor of others on them, and thus we see them useless for society. Therefore, they are ascetics in society and they did not give what is required from them despite all the divine laws did not call to work just for the hereafter but they called for the present life and the hereafter together because this is what pleases God the creator of every thing. They even consider man the God successor on earth and he must improve this function through the relationship between man and material. So, the creator asked man to equal between the life and the hereafter for the interest of man because that prevents him from asceticism from one side and not to use material excessively in order not to change the benefit of it into harm that damages not just man but all people. and the man felt from the beginning of creation that knowing material is necessary to coexist with it and benefit from it whether it is for the interest of the humanity or the wicked selfishness which makes man dominate his fellow man, but in all cases man is forced to deal with the material whether he wants or not, especially upon the civilized man.

Material and Ambition The mind of man is filled with ambitions, hopes, and desires, so, there is no man without hope, and they are the characteristics that distinguish him from the other living creatures. thus they are the basic driving factors for deeds of every man but their containment rate differs from one mind to another, so, it is said this man dreams of having a house and a car and can spend his holidays in nice places, also he wishes to educate his children in private schools and universities and offer the medical services, also dreams to drive a nice car, and live in a nice house in the capital, and live in a rural house in recreation days, and more dreams of what improve his living situation, while other just dreams a limited dreams, so for instance, he dreams of having a flat in building, I am wondering: is there any body who has no ambition or hope? And, frankly the answer is that, there is nobody on the earth that lacks that,

107

but what we want to say:" Does man achieve all his ambitions and he himself is greed in getting everything, so, if he was given the world, he would ask the more? Thus, what are the limits that can limit these ambitions and desires in order not to be indignation for its holder because of his behaviors, which are not accepted in the society? therefore, this man will be frustrated, and maybe he harbor malice against the society which, as he believes, does not give what he deserves, especially when he sees a lot of people achieving their ambitions and desires at the expense of other's social efforts without having any characteristic enables to get a lot benefits and profits, thus, every society should put rules and criterions, and that can be by connecting giving with taking and offering the needed help to achieve this principle, so, we have to develop these ambitions and desires and not to suppress them in order not to suppress with them the vitality and human creation which we need to develop and reform the economy, and this is an initiative which should be connected with acts, and that is by putting the suitable man in the suitable place and helping him by various methods to achieve his dreams and social ambitions, and that is by rehabilitating him according to his mental and muscular faculties and the kind of job that matches his abilities, so that, this man does not feel in his deep that we oppose his getting better salary or bonuses or certain privileges, and this is at present what we face in applying this style, so, we share the worker or any citizen his feeling and give him the suitable appreciation certificate, but is this share enough without translating it into financial aspects which can be useful for him in achieving his ambitions and wishes? So, we torture for the situation of worker or citizen and we can not offer him the financial benefit as compensation for his exerted effort, and some worker in the public sector asked me: Where can I change this appreciation certificate in order to achieve my hopes? That, to provide the lowest level of living situation for his family and this is the weakest thing to achieve ambitions.

Moreover, here, I want to say: many workers don not like observation that can help them in achieving their hopes. This is what persons, who are responsible for taking care hopes and ambitions, expect in order to benefit from it in the production process. so, managers should establish a family relationship between them and their subordinates so that those subordinates declare what occupying them as hopes, ambitions, and wishes, so that, exploit all that in order to encourage the worker to learn and exert more physical and mental effort in order to improve his performance in terms of quality and quantity, especially when speeches are connected with acts namely when managers fulfill their promises, also, the result of any experiment in this field will be an example for others and this will be reflected positively to economy.

Income and Production: Some people do not distinguish between the good production and the bad one, and consider any produced thing a production. They think also that industrialization in all its kinds is necessary to cover the unemployment, and push an employment movement forward. However, others do not consider the production a real production unless be achieved to the useful production conditions and compliance to the global consumer need in terms of price and quality. In reality, these conditions are various, but abbreviation for time, I resorted to mention the achieved end for these conditions. thus, applying this condition {the global price and quality} now is used as criterion to offer any project whether it is successful or not, even economists became consider the project which doesn't achieve this criterion a bad for economy, therefore, it has no a useful productivity, thus, the relationship between the production and the income is very good. Therefore, the useful production gives a useful income which can be suitable to the exerted effort, and that in itself produces a useful production. Therefore, when we want to devote the required sums to cover the expense of

108

Page 109: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

paid salaries in a certain field, we have to know what will result from these sums. Moreover, it is an important equation to keep balance between expenses and incomes, thus, we reach to the tripartite relationship between the devoted expenses to cover the income and the resulted production then the income, which is resulted from this production as the following plan:

The devoted expenses to cover the income → the production → the income, which is produced by this production.

From here, we have to distinguish between the income, which resulted from the useless production, and the income that is resulted from the useful one. so, the income which is resulted from the useless production is a harmful income which leads to inflation, and this is the state that we get in case of a limited sale of goods to the local market and can not export them to the global markets, so, it suffers from the exportation disease, so, a big amount of a local monetary will be gathered of what increases the size of consumption with increasing shortage of foreign currency because of our continuous exportation of the required raw material to produce them from one side, and from the other side, it is a cause for the similar goods to come illegally, because of incapability to achieve the global completion, thus, the matter gets worse because we need to change the local currency into a foreign one to pay the prices of the imported goods which came illegally.

So, in order not to be harmed by the bad production, we have to study the present factories to correct their path according to the criterion, also we should not give licenses to establish any industrial building that don't offer a useful production. At the same time, we should establish an information bank that contains studies about industrial projects that can offer a useful production, and here, I want to focus on the following important point: exporting some materials often is better than establishing special industries for the following reasons:

1- We can control between the offer and the demand easily, so, exportation is done according to the need.2- Establishing factories of a useful productivity make us restricted to export the required materials for production, which maybe they are often a less than the demand of produced quantity.3- Increase of the entering quantities to the country illegally, because the local consumer is part of the global consumer, so, it is impossible for us to make industries of harmful productivity, thus, he will provide the suitable good in terms of quality and price from any source, especially from the next countries.4- The capability of using the reserved money to make a produced industry, and here we notice that the useful produced industry can replace the reserved money. that is because of the strength of both in supporting the local currency, even some economists consider projects of good productivity much better than using the reserved money, because of the benefit which is resulted from the turning velocity of the invested capital in projects of the useful production and which always produces an additional capital, while the reserved money fails to provide that, and also it maybe face some weakness sides because of the oscillation of the global currency, but it is better to depend on both and that is what we see in the greatest industrial countries that is the supported powers of currency are: an industrial power, the valuable minerals, and the current paper money, and they are resulted from the various economic projects and which are represented by shares and the money papers. 5- Determining a table contains the various components of production, then changing the fee according to the quality of production and its price and the produced quantity within a limited time, of what pushes the worker automatically to improve his performance as a wish

109

Page 110: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

to improve his financial situation, and this is what helps in acclimatization with the global competition situation according to the quality and price, also that can be a helpful factor of increasing the internal demand to use the good of global quality and suitable price, and this what is considered as a good protection that the producer provides for his production against the illegal entering of the similar goods, and who the local consumer attempts to enter by all means, because they achieve for him benefits that can not be provided by the local goods, and the relation between the fee, and the local consumption factors can be clarified as following: Local consumption ↑ Exportation ← Fee → Quantity ↓ Quality 6- The increase of the size of the disguised unemployment is connected with the increase of factories number of useless production. That is what we worry about in case of sudden and huge unemployment, because the effect of the aspirin or the reformative anesthetization cannot last forever. Therefore, a part of unemployment is employed illusively under the name of disguised unemployment as a temporary stage, then it will be changed into an apparent unemployment and this is what causing harms to the policy of fighting unemployment. so, outwardly, the established factories or projects have contributed or helped in solving the problem of unemployment, and we became evaluate the size of unemployment by workers who are available outside it without taking into consideration the reality of productivity for the present factories, and then we determine the size of the apparent and disguised unemployment, and from my point of view both are dangerous for the economy, and the cure for unemployment at the end can't be by increasing the number of useless projects, but by studying causes, and then the unemployment will be defeated gradually.

The Income and the Social Relationship The plenty of money or its littleness cause anxiety and psychological confusion for human being, but when we compare between them, we find that the harm of the latter is greater than the former. especially when falls to a certain level where man can not provide the basic needs for his life which changes the individual behavior into a bad one imposed by his social reality, thus, the society which suffers from the weakness of the individual incomes is a society in which the different social problems are prevailed, despite the rich industrial society is not free from the social problems.

However, the cure of these problems in the second case is easier than the first case, because punishing the criminal for the material need is completely different when comparing him in the case of riches. so, the bad act without a material need is a completely different when the material need is the motive to this act, also, the rules of low don't apply in the case of stealing which is out of need, therefore, any reformative movement for economy must begin from studying levels of incomes to know its capability in achieving the lowest basic living requirements and to know causes that prevent the reach to this limit, thus, correcting the economic faults after uncovering their reasons is very easy, also, it is a good protection against the side effects which are resulted from the reformation process.

So, if the waste forms one of the factors that prevent increasing income or fee levels, we have to search in kinds of waste, then, we offer the cure for each one, so, the waste could be continuous in the apparent losses for budgets of the industrial public sector, and to cure it, is not easy, that it could be resulted from maladministration, or because of workers number, or the high costs of productions, or the bad studying of economic benefits which is preceded the

110

Page 111: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

period of the establish, or the difference of competition conditions after the establish or the weakness of its marketing system.

In addition, there is no way to search in details of these diseases, but the diagnosis of disease and giving the suitable cure for it, is the basis in treating this waste. Here, I say that pretext of some persons in the executive power is that the loss of factories is compensated by employing more working hands, is refutable and it has no logic basis. so, we can't increase diseases by treating disease with another disease, and consequently diseases are aggravated, and my response for those is: why we don't look for a real job vacancies which cover the huge number of disguised and apparent unemployment, and here I mean the real job vacancies that make room for the different physical and mental specializations to work for the good of economy in order to be productive, and I mean by productive: the integral economy which provides a suitable living level for different people, because the job vacancy which is provided today is illusory vacancy and it is a burden for economy because it is about paying salaries for people gathering in places which it is said that they are work places, but there is not any economic benefit from this gathering, and this is what I have seen during the communist rule in the communist countries, so, I see many people every morning entering factories and country departments, and in the evening they come out without achieving any useful thing for its economy, thus, the indirect social reformation comes by the economic reformation, that love and sacrifice are prevailed in members of family.

In addition, if the family is good, the society will be good because it is the core of the society and the psychological and material comfort that the individual feels. The comfort that stands on justice that is to feel that society does not take his right and exerted effort to achieve an economic benefit. especially when it treats with all kinds of people and citizens levels, and this is what the divine laws called to on the basis of equality, and they want to rise the humanity soul in order to keep it away from hatred and spite which were prevailing among individuals relationships, so, man is rewarded according to his exerted efforts and intellectual creation, as mentioned in Prophetic tradition:" we have to give the worker his wage before his sweat is dried". Is not it an example to appreciate worker's effort?

Income and habilitation No doubt, that applying equality between income and rehabilitation is necessary, and it is undesirable in the developing countries, because applying this equality leads to improve the gift that the individual does for the society. Therefore, according to the useful exchange theory, the society will appreciate this gift and return it by another gift, and we see that society's gifts for their individuals are greater than individuals ones for their societies, and one of the most important things offered by the society to the individual is the rehabilitation. Therefore, there is a good and strong relationship between the three factors: the exerted effort and the compensation for it by the beneficiary group from this effort, and the compensation, which is offered by this group to the exerted effort, and I think we can make the following equality:

The exerted effort = the benefit got by this effort= the suitable compensation for the benefit got by the exerted effort.

We deduce from the equality above that not every worker can take a salary or income unless he deserves it through the benefit that he offers to the others, because exerting effort only is not enough unless there is a benefit for others. In addition, it is said that person could put needles, each one above another in the form of straight column in one of awards session

of ruler Mamoun. So, Mamoun rewarded him for this work two awards: the first is that he whipped him twenty whips because what has been discovered is considered futile, a kind of entertainment, useless, and it may waste the time of others and distract them from their works, while the ruler gave him two golden pieces because of the innovation that he achieved. In addition, many scientific theories loose their importance because of not offering any practical benefit, this means that the holders of these theories failed in finding a new applicable theories. Thus, such theories could not be proved well as well as their holders could not contribute in their society's theory. As a result, we see that the vocational institutes as well as the private ones, which are full of workers aiming of being creative in their industries, concern in developing and improving the rehabilitation. The developing countries are on the contrary, the worker has no choice but resorting to scientific institutes, which enable him to get the routine scientific certificate as the secondary certificate that, enable him to be enrolled in any major of university to improve his financial situation. This situation is, in fact, less than the minimum level in the major industrial countries, but he has to accept the little because there is no opportunity to enhance his financial situation by going deep into his profession and to work to be creative in it. Moreover, how can he do this since life imposed on him his profession? Therefore, he could not choose the profession that matches his qualifications. Therefore, the solution is to go deeply into schools, universities, vocational research centers, and leaving the other scientific fields aside till the results appear by the complete recovery from the disease of experience weakness and by connecting the fee with the exerted effort in order to achieve the following equality: salary amount = experience So, any reaction for raising salary averages in opposition to this equality will attribute to un accumulative deficit in providing the necessary sources to operate the movement of good production as well as leading to currency inflation. This is an indication for a bad economic situation "God forbid".

The Position of Reforming Income from the Economic Reformation Since man is the spinal column for every economic reformation, so, he has no meaning without economy; also, the opposite is true. Therefore, the economy is man made and for his good, and because the income being from the most important things for the continuation of man existence, even his performance is subject to a suitable income. Thus, the economic reformation begins at solving the individual income problem, so, a study can be made about the average of income which can fulfill the individual basic needs, and the suitable prices for goods so that the individual can get them.

Therefore, there is equality between the income and the level of goods prices, and the cure is either by raising individual's annuity or by lowering prices. Therefore, if we take the first solution, we will face the problem of providing added needed sources to cover the difference between the previous paid salaries and what the later ones depending on increasing salaries levels. This problem gets greater whenever the country interferes in the economy starting from communism to socialism to capitalism or the duty-free economy system. Therefore, the income reformation process forces us to search for the factors behind the weakness of income that the weakness of sources is one of them. This in its turn leads us to know the causes for this lowering, and thus, we resort to study sources of present incomes to offer the suitable cure for them. That is to the sources which did not achieve the income average based on studying their economic benefits, and also, we elaborate studying the weak sources in order to refresh them to get benefits from their capabilities as much as possible. Moreover, here, I

112

Page 113: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

am not concerned with mentioning these sources because our subject is just the relationship between the income and the different economic and social factors Sources of income → the general spending → the wasting → the general spending account In addition, after finishing from the cure of severe diseases, we resort to the sources, which did not reach to the lowest level that are given by their similarities in the other countries; the countries that their projects success or benefits of income's sources are determined by the view of the world. So, through it we can give the worked hand the fees which deserved at the global level, as far as the second cure is concerned, it is by activating the weak income sources and that is by stopping the waste bleed or extirpating it if it is possible. So, any cure for income sources can't achieve its aims since this bleed is continued, and maybe this bleed will increase by making the useless economic projects that is the relationship between the waste and the general spending including salaries is an opposite relationship, that is the decrease of wasting helps in increasing the sources and the opposite is true. Moreover, here, I want to mention an important thing that the discord in positive and negative reformation way is a dangerous phenomenon in the world of economic reformation, which is in most of the time, the reformation turns to damage, and many people wish the pervious case of reformation process. Therefore, it is necessary to observe the reformation process accurately and gradually, and the reformation must overcome the negative current of reformation and this is what it is called the economic sterilization process. Therefore, through it, we can begin the reformation process, and here, we can consider sterilization a reformation for the economic situation, so, it is like annihilation for disease source then curing the disease, that is we have to prepare the carriage before the horse and not the opposite. And some of other reformations which lead to solve the income problem are: connecting between rehabilitation and education, exploiting the material and human energies, and the early discovering of economic defect. so, connecting them by a development plans is the best way that we can follow to improve the averages of income regardless of playing with prices of basic consumptive materials.

Using Automation to Improve the Income Level : We can say that there is no a scientific man on the earth believes that automation has no favor in our daily lives, so, it helps in connecting separate information and activating it with each other based on a previous input information that is we get a result which can help us to solve our contemporary daily problems of a complicated components. So, of course man in the past needed much time to reach results that can be given by computer within a standard time, thus, there is an abbreviation of time and costs with lowering the disguised unemployment levels, so, we can recognize the commercial characteristics of person through contacting the internet site of the chamber of commerce, also, we can know the scientific qualifications of any man through contacting the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Higher Education, also, we can know his healthy status through contacting the Ministry of Health and more information that we can get by contacting the independent side, and this refers to the necessity to create a wide computer network connecting the different departments, administrations, and ministries with each other of what avoid the citizen and administration a lot of moving burden among many sides to provide information which a certain department needs about somebody or the extent of identification of acts of this person to a certain instructions and decisions or systems and laws.

113

Page 114: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

In addition to that, automation helps in finding job or choosing better job opportunities to improve the income level, for instance, if a person has a certain scientific and practical qualifications, he can, by using computer, find a better job than his job if he is not satisfied by his job or it doesn’t provide a suitable salary for him, also, he can compare between his qualifications and the required or announced ones, thus, he can offer an application to the foundation in which his qualifications agree with its desires of what helps to apply the important administration rule which says: we have to put the suitable person in the suitable place according to the mutual information between the job seeker and the job master. Also, in this case, it helps the society which bears costs of an unemployed person to find a suitable job for him, and this is considered as a power for economy because it interested in reforming man who is the basic element to operate the production means, that is no economic reformation without interesting in man who is the purpose of economy.

And worth mentioning that automation has another benefit which is: connecting the new born desires and ambitions with the work which is entrusted to him after reaching the legal age of work and it is the helping factor for learning upon youths when they know that their rush for science and scientific research is the only way to achieve their future dreams as creating a family which can live in economic welfare that flows from the material appreciation for science, and this in reality, is an indication for the right planning to solve the problem of employment in a correct way, and also, it is the method that forms the trained educated cadres which can take jobs that given up by the experience holders because of retirement, and this is what we are suffering from now, especially the new graduated youths don’t find a job, on the other hand, workers suffer from the low income.

Here, we find that the automation system helps each one of them to certain extend to improve their material situation, but it is not the best cure for unemployment and raising the income levels, but the expansion of using automation became necessary to cover the different reformation processes which we have to practice in order that this system can help us to speed up in finding the suitable and comprehensive solutions to all our economic activities, and for instance, we begin making a computerized card for every baby filled with by the family and be the basis for the coming computerized inputs with respect to the develops which happen to the baby, and it is better that this computer be connected through a network with the scientific research center which is specialized in development and employment affairs, so, this will insure the suitable job for the child in the future and this what helps in connecting rehabilitation with employment and development, and this leads to raise the income levels and overcome the true and the disguised unemployment.

The Income Nationality No doubt that desires of some persons can't be achieved in their country, so, they wish to achieve them in other places, and maybe, these places can be available in the wide Arab world which has the different material abilities, and considering that the intellectual and muscular creation develops and increases in the suitable climates, so, it is necessary to choose one of the available Arab climates as an alternative from practicing this creation in a foreign country, thus, Arab nation looses results of this intellectual creation, so, this affects negatively all Arab nation, therefore, it seems that Arab nation receiving of Arab experiences on its land will protect it.

Thus, we should take into our consideration our carelessness in importing Arab minds because it is important as much as the importance of employing Arab people in the foreign countries, because these emigrant minds are the devices in supporting and developing the

114

Page 115: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

emigrant money, and of course, the contents of investments are the deposited Arab money in the banks, because of the fear from the nationalization in some Arab countries, and we hope that the law of banks secrecy, which is recently published in Syria, is one of the encouraging factors for Arab investments in Syria, even if that happened by depositing the foreign money in the Syrian banks. So, I find that the relationship between the individual income and the expansion in the reformations at Arab world level which the revenue of Arab individual is one of the most important things.

And one of these reformations is activating Arab money investment inside Arab world by making useful productive projects which provide jobs for Arab world people from the ocean to the gulf, especially if Arab world resorted to develop the banking work and money markets in the way that makes Arab world people bring their money which is deposited outside their countries, and here, I want to stress that the money which is in the foreign and Arab banks can be considered one of the supporting factors for economy, because it is as caution, especially these banks are devices to move the banking worked hand towards thinking and banking creation which is necessary for us after the local banking cadres have left to work in a foreign and Arab banks in the outside, also, these cadres helped in taking out the Arab money because of the local Arab dealer desire to work with persons that provide their commercial interests in an easy way.

Here, it is better to establish an Arab employment market like Arab common market or the common works which Arab people aspire to establish, because these Arab works represent, in their reality, collection of unity of Arab people which each one includes a small economic and consumptive market, despite that, the rich of them which has a great wealth doesn’t deal with Arab employment as dealing with the foreign one which has a hostile interests against Arab nation and this is a very dangerous phenomenon in the Arab world, and the best solution for it is establishing an Arab employment common market which begins with a scientific establishment which depends on the modern technique in collecting special information about employment which is spread in different Arab world, thus, we can employ the employment at Arab world level. So, I consider this worker is everyone who works in different kind of industries and trade, so, we can put the Arab worker in the suitable place on the land of Arab nation not on the land of the industrial world which works to destroy our industry at the expense of refreshing the foreign industry, limited in its dealing with us on buying the raw materials and this in its turn encourages establishing Arab unemployment at the expense of solving problems of their unemployment and changing us from a working people into people that consume their goods and productions, This is the fact that I deliver at Arab people through this simple research hoping to find a positive echo, because it has benefits for all from the Arab economic side which we are attempting to strengthen it to support Arab attitude internationally.

The Income and the Education Some people believe that education aims to get a scientific degree to acquire reputation or fame or to avoid the fear from saying that they are ignorant or illiterate people, and they didn’t know that education has a benefit for them and for others in the society, or it is like a body food which strengthens the body, as well as, it is not less important than the body food, so, it is necessary and important for the mental food, so, when man doesn’t take the food or takes it in improper way to the nature of body and its alimentary requirements, this will lead him to death, and the same case will be repeated for the mental food, that is it can't be taken through one dose, but through periods according to the characteristics of the receiving set which is the brain, and knowing these characteristics is necessary to know its capacity for the

115

Page 116: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

information size that can be acquired, and when man doesn’t work his brain in acquiring information and experience, he will freeze his mind, and in this case it will be like any atrophying muscle when it doesn’t move for a period of time. And worth mentioning that the education and the culture are acquiring experience and knowledge of others, especially that man became living in civilizations exchange and he has to benefit from it to form a special civilization which appears through his behavior with others, thus, he can harmonize between his living inside the country and if he can live like this man in the civilized world.

So, we notice that the civilized world is the man who affects and be affected by others in a civilized way, but we are responsible for providing education that helps in connecting civilizations with each other in case of raising the income levels, because the right income is the one which is resulted from education experience because both of them generate income which can be used in making a useful productive projects away from making a great economic damages as inflation which is resulted from the random income, and connecting the educational policy with the income which is one of the needed factors for the economic reformation, and that can be by improving methods and levels of education, especially when learning is connected with the material as sending superiors to universities for a higher learning according to their desires, also giving privileges for hard-working workers who offer a useful job suggestions, because man is material by instinct and we have to exploit his material side to reform and develop his humanity.

So, the material must be the basis to improve the living situation of man and not to be a cause for damaging it, also, we can educate him about the good consumption, and it is what considered as increasing in the income, and this is what we have to understand that education is useful, so, we get benefits from putting the suitable money in the suitable place. Also, by the scientific specialization and connecting it with the developmental plans, we move from putting the suitable money in the suitable place to put the suitable man in the suitable place, and thus, the world achieves the desired purpose which is providing the material and psychological relief for the worker and they are the two necessary elements to reform the production in terms of quality and quantity.

2-The Effect of the Economic laws on theEconomy and Income

1- The Importance of the Economic Laws; Every man has the freedom of work and good living under the laws, which are put by him that, is man puts limits, principles, and bases that insure achieving the quality and property of the legitimate and illegitimate works, which do not match and agree with his daily and human interest. Therefore, when constitutions and laws achieve man's interest, then man will achieve his humanity automatically, thus, people in general should study their reality that provides all kinds of life like culture, economy, and society, and comparing that with the other countries, then working to put the suitable laws and constitutions. But the question here: Is there any resistant for these constitutions and laws, although they were put according to his desires, and which are part of the society's desires, that is the society can consider every man, who doesn’t apply the constitution and law which are put by him, an abnormal man because he is dissident?

116

Page 117: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Therefore, many societies keep on getting the most opinions that agree with any project in order to get the least of resistant people for it, despite that the opposition is available in the most civilized people but in different rates according to the most rate which agree with the suggested constitution or law. So, if the agreed individuals percentage is 60% of the entire society, the disagreed will be 40% or less, and when the agreed percentage is 70% , the disagreed will be 30% and like this , even these laws are put by the most civilized people. In addition, we cannot use constitutions and laws for a long time, because of the civilized factors, which play a great role in correcting laws. However, the question is: How can we adopt continuously between laws and the fast-developed civilization? Therefore, the difference factor does not develop our concept, and it leaves the chance for the individual abilities to fill the gap between it and civilization.

However, are all individuals have the ability to deal with the modern civilizations, or should they remain underdeveloped from the civilized side through applying laws, and this is, no doubt, an indication for backward itself? So, the civilization has two roles that affect laws, the first one prepares laws, and the second one provides harmony between the developed civilization and laws, that is, the need requires developing laws quickly according to the civilization development otherwise a waste will be happened in the society which we can avoid through raising the civilized rates in the form that can overcome laws, so, the modern civilized man is who has to practice a work which is justified by the old worked, while his present civilization astonishes this work, also, man who is still living within the frame of his civilization and laws influences by man of other country who lives in a different civilized and legal environment, and the question is: How can we develop our civilization which is the basic organizer for our changing life, while laws are the lowest limit that organize the social relationships, that is clinging to the secular laws through a long time means that we are lazy and wish to depend on a legal thing which appears our uncivilized deeds, ignoring by that the true justice which results from the new civilization.

So, a lot of people suffer from the secular laws injustice, while they don’t suffer from the civilization justice as much as they suffer from the laws injustice, and how nice the civilization is when all people solve their problems by using the civilization and not by laws, this civilization which is represented by respecting the mutual rights. So, the best evidence for the civilized nations is the court emptiness from the quarreled people, therefore, there is a good relationship between the people volume which occupies the space of the court and the civilization of people who made this court to solve their problems, that is, there is an opposite relationship between this human mass which occupies the entity of the court and the civilization rate, so, whenever the first decreases the second increase and the opposite is true, and this what makes us give an importance for civilization. And as for the helping factors for raising civilization, they are by improving the level of civilization elements which we should take care of them. 2- Propaganda and Information: Information plays a great role in developing civilization upon people, thus, there are two kinds of information: the effective information and the ineffective one, so, the first kind can't be provided unless we study the nature of the society that it deals with, and it is a difficult process because it uncovers the human soul including psychological complexes, dreams, ambitions, and desires at culture level, thus, we should choose specialized trained cadres to this mission, and recently, we noticed a good signs when advertisers about their goods and establishment's names began expressing a mother's sympathy and passion towards her son, and son's love and appreciation for his mother's feeling, and that is through a beautiful way

117

when the son bows for his mother and kisses her hands of what moves her feeling and makes her embrace her son, really it is a wonderful scene representing the relationship between the mother and her son, this relationship which develops and strengthens the family relationship between the son and his parents and brother, so, this young man becomes full of love and brotherhood in his dealing with the others.

And there is a popular custom that dealing with a person who has no good relationship with his family is impossible, so the one, who has no good for his family, he has no good for the others, thus, this advertisement has offered a great moral favor for the society, and what can be said about the moral results of this advertisement can be said about advertisements which are about not wasting water and attention for cleanness and taking care of the public properties. So, the studied information is very necessary to the society to practice its daily works in the right form, and what can be said about a kind of read propaganda can be said also about all other kinds of propaganda as series, movies, speeches, and sports, which each one should be prepared and announced before a certain time by a certain programs, thus, preparers of information programs must be informed about the social events, and exploit these programs for the social reformation and choose the suitable time for the informed party about these programs in order to achieve aims of these programs, and in my opinion, this matter is so important because when TV program lose its aim, this will make the program insignificant, or it will be just for entertainment and wasting time, and this is the great danger which keeps young men away from the good aims as the moral ones.

Therefore, the series which deals with solving a social problem must choose a moral manner to solve it, that is, this problem can't be solved for example by using the body violence or by paying money and so on, so, besides the aim being noble, the manners should be a studied ones in their happening and choosing their kinds in order to be easy and acceptable for people, because mass media form the needed medicines and cures to solve our social problems, so, we should be reformers in the way that people accept, that is many people believe that the reformer has went too far in his trying to affect their moral manner, and this is a very important matter which the information man should take care of, because if it doesn’t take into consideration, this will make him face people's reaction, and consequently they adhere their bad manner to defend themselves by submission to advice and guidance, and the bad effect of mass media maybe spread by parties aiming to affect people's feelings, principles, beliefs, and personal desires, so, it shows respect for all that, while they hide, at the same time, a hostile aims. So, it is an aspect which is depended on intelligence and an informative trick, so, we should draw Arab world's attention to that, especially the new mass media began to enter every house and affect the local information.

The Individual and the Collective Education We said before, that information is considered one of the most important rings that support the morals path towards the right direction, and it is in its turn the needed element to respect laws and rules, also, it is from the most important rings that support morals which are: the individual and the collective education. So, the first one is the responsibility of the parents or the eldest brothers which it is called the family education, that is the education which affects the individual directly, because as it is said the child instinct strengthens the speed of understanding and information rooting in his memory, but how can fathers, mothers, and the eldest brothers do this function correctly? And the answer for that is that the informative perception is generally connected with culture, and maybe their being old helps them to be the strong bridge to convey information, guidance, and the informative advices to children.

So, we can't depend, in educating children, on the civilized status as much as we must depend on the education bases which are necessary for civilization that we aspire to, because it corrects our behavior with our children, and here we should stress a very important issue that the indirect education is much better than the direct one from the moral acquisition aspect, for instance: when the child sees that the surrounding environment is full of love and respect for the law, so, no doubt, he will respect this law in order not to be odd and this what causes others hostility towards him, and this is what we see in some European countries when walkers in the street began to look negatively at the child who cut out a rose from a park, but this child shied and returned the rose to its place and felt so sorry for his act, and if this rose had a sense of human, this child would apologize for the rose, and I think this child was not treated in his house the same way the society treats him so that the family treatment pushes him to follow this act which is discarded by the society, so that, the collective opinion is the reformer for the individual one because in all cases the group is stronger than the individual, but the best case is when one supports the other, that is when the public opinion and the private one become harmonious, and here the following question comes: Who has the priority? From my point of view, correcting the individual behavior comes first because people are group of individuals, and reforming the individual is easier than reforming the society, also, reforming the society is impossible unless we reform its components that are reforming individuals.

So, there is a chain, which their rings are always connected, begins with the individual then the society then the individual, that is it begins with the individual and ends with him, so, the individual is the beginning and the end, that is the educational factor is the basis and it is what makes us bring an educational experts for the administrative systems in order to get from the education a moral benefits and it is a transitory stage which is necessary for our families and educational systems to rehabilitate them to do this mission for correcting the existed morals or creating a missing ones, and this helps in serving the laws, so, there is a strong relationship between morals and the strength of respecting laws, and I don't think that people who have no morals could have a strong economy, thus, this economy can build a correct bases for morals as the following relationship: The individual and the collective education → Morals → the economy → the education.

The Economy and the Morals : As we said, the information and the education are two important rings in respecting laws, but we should believe that the economic prosperity helps in improving the performance of the first two factors: the information and the education, that is the material helps in providing an educational means and improving the information means, so, there is a relationship among the information, the education, and the economy, but the effect of the material on the human being causes, in many cases, a defect in the balance of the moral manner, and this is what we see nowadays of increasing omnipotence and tyranny of any country to other countries in order to reform its economic situation, and a good example for that is the material megalomania which dominated the character of Hetler a few decades ago, so, this disease pushed him to wage war against the whole world in order to dominate it and extort its money and wealth. And here comes to our minds the importance of observing each factor which assures getting the harmony between the information in terms of quality and quantity, the quality of the required morals and the material, this harmony which provides us to reach a justice economic laws.

So, it is not equity to ask somebody to respect an economic law which can harm his interest and his country's one, also, justice can be achieved contrary to that, that is the whole society

119

wants a free economy while the all surround around the economic reformer, and there is a great difference between the two attitudes, and here we have to wonder: Are morals necessary for one dealt side in order to achieve agreement between them? And the answer is yes, it is necessary to unite morals core upon people so that we can prevail morals in the whole society in order to make the tool which prevents disputations among them, especially if morals occupy the biggest space of the mind, so that every disagreement can be solved through minds competition with each other. And as I believe there were results because of the moral mind for nations after the World War П as establishing an international organizations like Security Council and the United Nations to solve the problems in correct way, so, as there are courts which judge the local laws breaker, also, there are ones which judge countries that break the international laws. And in my opinion, that when the individual respects his laws this will make the process of applying the law easy, also, it reflects at the same the respect of laws, rules, and decisions which are resulted from the international courts, that is nations are group of individuals, so, if any individual breaks the international law, he certainly breaks one of the worked laws because there is a strong connection among nations for two main reasons: the first because of applying globalization, and the second because of distances approaching between nations and countries through the new mass media which depend on using satellites, therefore, the morals amount of nations became the criterion for its civilization, so, the relationship between morals, peace, and the international security is strong.

1- The individual's morals.2- Respecting the local laws. 3- Putting laws that organize the international relationships depending on the local laws.4- The importance of the global peace comes from the individuals' safety and their morals.

So, we conclude that countries which their people have enough amount of morals seek hard to fulfill their morals through acquiring good morals which are complementary to their morals, and this is not easy because the meaning of morals is so wide that some people consider the individual's behavior moral, while others consider it immoral or incomplete one, so, there are different point of views in the world to define the concept of moral, therefore, there is a gap between the good morals and the bad ones, but the interest of the good morals holder to deal with the bad morals holder forces the first to give up some of his morals to the other of what indicates that the duty of the civilized individuals is to convey their civilization to the different world, especially after the civilized countries called to make the world open to each other by applying the globalization system, and since we connected morals with the law and rules, the people's sublimity increases when they respect their laws.

The board that puts the legislations In doubt that the legislators of the economy must be at certain ethical level to be able to identify the lowest level of the economic moralities according to the legal guaranties and the administrative steps, and here the following things must be deferent:

The people of this system whose mission is to organize it must be chosen from the populist tissue it self, because the putting of the necessary moralities must of each society must not be done by a string which does not belong to this tissue because it will affect badly on its content, which means that it will not be good for the implementation of any economic field. So the members of this tissue must have social and educational moralities, because it is not enough to be elected from the society but they must have certain characteristics such as honesty and good thinking. And we must make sure of their existence and that by putting a

120

standard for the previous standards which is called the C .V of the candidates that gives us the standard that points to the credibility of the first standard , and this can be explained as following : for example if we there is a person who has certain education such as engineering of civilization and he is creative in it but unfortunately he works in a job that has nothing to do with it , so for this reason we can not consider this education valid to make this person suitable to represent his mates the councils of the residential assemblies , or to be a member in the syndicate of the engineers . But the ethical standard appears through the practicing of the educated person in his job. So the choice of any position must depend on the rules of the administration which work according to the principle of the pyramidal implementation which means that the correct behavior of the economic legislative system is more important than the legislations themselves , this clever and sophisticated system has the ability to realize the human nature in order to put the flexible legislations that go with this nature firstly , and with the strange development of time secondly , because there are no legislations which are valid to each time and place especially the fixed legislations limit development and creativity . So for this reason we must value the competence of the legislations according to its validity in order to put new legislations instead of the old ones if they are necessary, because the serial changing in the legislations is the best factor which prevents the legislative defect, and it facilitates the adaptation between the brain and the legislative implementations which are put for it. So if the legislations are just this will facilitate the process of the adaptation, and the sophisticated streets is the one that is able to insure the consensus between the implementation of the legislation and the content of the citizens about this implementation.

And of course results prove the correction of the laws and the legislations , because many theories which were put to organize a social life in a certain way have become un desirable , and this will cause embarrassment to their situation in spite of the great support for them in the first moment , and consequently the big difference that increases between the target of the legislation and the desire of not implementing it will lead to a social disorder , because its legislator lives in an atmosphere of legislations that he does not like and he has a puzzlement about the way of expressing his opinion :can it be by asking for changing or modification , or by adopting the legislations in spite of their defects because they were put by social scientists . So for this reason I see that the acceptance of a society to theories which are put by persons is not a correct way, and my opinion is resulting from the fact that every one loves to participate in any thing that will have his prints in it, and we can see this in a simple and a natural way when any one revolves against any thing which is prepared by some one else, but this projection will fade away when he participates in this preparation even if his preparation is very small. So from here we notice the importance of the participation of the biggest number of the people in putting the legislations and the laws.

And for the theories which were adopted as a good system to organize the life of the societies, they have been found later by these societies as bad ones. So for this reason it was better for them to examine the results of their implementation before adopting them as theories which are valid for implementation, because it will be difficult to change them later especially if the legislator has become convinced of their benefits because of the authorities he has to implement them. But these authorities might not be admired by some of those who has put these legislations because of the opposition the legislator faces from the executors of these legislations , but it seems that the influence of the tools that execute the legislations are weak because the executor is subjected to the authorities he has in order to do his job .

The first and the last opinion which determines the validity of these legislations and laws belongs to the wide base of the people where the relation between the legislator and the

121

Page 122: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

citizen seems very strong, because the legislator and for his own benefit must take the opinion of the citizen before the legislation takes the characteristic of obligation, because of the economic and the social damages that happen because of the repulsion between the citizen and the legislator. And the legislator will not submit to the negative results of this repulsion if he does the constitutional or the legislative graft, and this process is done when the gradual implementation of constitution is done.

The target from all these things is not a waste of time but to examine the attraction or the repulsion between the new legislations and the citizen, because the legislation is put to deal with the complicated human nature and not with the nature which its dreams, principles and targets are static.

The best thing we can use in the gradual implementation is to discover the opinion of the people about the explanation of the constitution, but by taking into consideration the criticisms that are aroused about it. And somebody may say: why the parliament is established, is not to represent the people in the approval of the legislations, laws and constitution? I say may be this is right, but why the behaviors of the members of the parliament do not go with their electoral course when they sit on the chair of the parliament.

So legislations and constitutions must be desirous and flexible and easy that go with the changeable circumstances.

The Consensus between constitution and Development The process of modifying the current constitution is better for the citizen than to cancel it and to substitute it with a new one. So for this reason we must fabricate the legislations and the laws in a very good way in order not to attract by their shines the citizens because they are good and because they think that that these legislations have helped them in getting rid off the burdens they suffer because of the old legislations and laws. But the question here is: is there any medicine to treat this optimism which can not be in its right place? Yes there is no illness without medicine but we must discover it. And in my opinion the best medicine is to find the ways that strengthen the love of the individual toward legislations and laws by considering them the base of organizing the social life of the individuals.

And this process of strengthen activates the legislations and the laws of the economy , and it is considered very important in making citizens to accept these legislations and laws in spite of inability to cover all the ambitions that the citizens want to get through the implementation of these legislations . Here I say that education is very important in this field, and for this reason the current system that is responsible for putting the educational courses must be qualified to this mission, that the students do not contradict what their fathers and teachers are doing. So we must start by preparing fathers and teachers who represent the good example for the students, and the importance of this matter appears through the answers of the self defense which are said by the children that they say when they are blamed for doing something wrong that their fathers or their teachers are doing the same thing. The problem here is how to justify the deed which is done by their examples, but this justification Wilmot is required when the children know by themselves that they have committed some thing wrong. Another thing appears here which is the matter of unifying the tracks and the targets which are adopted by the ones who put the educational courses , for example the teacher can not prevent his son from doing something in the house while his teacher allows him to do the

122

Page 123: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

same thing at school and vice versa . The best example for this is the blame of the teacher for the father who allows his son to do some works instead of sitting with the father to find one educational policy in order to eliminate the divergence between the educational policies ,and the arguments that may occur between the members of the educational system which will reflect in a direct way the misbehavior of the students between themselves , because the educational system for them is the mirror at which they look at if they see a distortion in it this will reflect badly on their spirits . So for this reason the responsible boards must choose the surface of this mirror in a good way to make it bright, pure, and not harmful. So the teachers must calculate their steps because the students will imitate their behaviors.

So we are responsible for the existence of a type of people who rejects the existence of legislations and laws in spite of their validity, and the reason is because we do not implement the legislative and the educational style. And this implementation must comprehend firstly the family and then the educational system and after that they must help each other, and by that this implementation represents the society which contains the family of the student and the educational system at school who cooperate with each other in the study of the behavior of the student toward education and the respect toward his teacher.

The Influence of Learning and Teaching on Economy We know that the commitment of the student toward the educational course and keeping on implementing its content and the reaction to its information are considered as a respect toward legislations and laws. So for this reason it is rare to find a good student or an educational person resorts to illegal ways to oppose legislations and laws , but he resorts to the mental and the educational dialogue to oppose which can be done by speaking and writing in the parliament and different kinds of media .From here we find that the relation between culture and legislations is very strong which means that the forms and the contents of the legislations must take care of this matter , for example when the legislation insists on the obligation of the buckshee of learning till the age of eighteen it is a good thing , but we must do this implementation in a good way and that by making it moveable not static to be able to go with the desires of the people , and consequently we reach the goal but in a different way .

The flexible legislation which is considered as a completion to other ones all of them form one mass which aims to take care of the social and the financial interest of the individual . So as long as these legislations achieve the targets of the citizens they will get the respect of the citizens, and this is the only way that guarantees their protection from violations or opposition against them.

So there is a scale between the contents and the justice of the legislations, and this means whenever the number of the people who work on implementing these legislations is bigger then this will help these legislations to achieve justice. Here we must say that culture helps in respecting legislations and laws and every thing the society offers .We know that the benefit of the individual is the base of every culture, so for this reason we must choose the kind of the culture which is connected with this benefit, especially in our current age it is better than the perfective culture which gives its owner just a scientific title while he needs money. Here we must connect the culture with personal talents of the individual in order to get two benefits from the culture: the first one is to improve the relation of the educational person

123

Page 124: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

with the others, and it is called social culture. The other benefit is called the financial culture which insures for the individual the level of the income he dreams of. So the successful culture is the one that insures the duality in the benefit of the individual., which means the culture that is built on the sum of the marks that the student gets and which might not able him to enter the scientific branch which goes with his physical and mental qualifications .

So the culture is a potent tool for loving legislations and laws, but at the same time it is a harmful tool that makes the individual hates legislations and laws and that according to its adaptation with the human spirit. From here the persons who are responsible for the education must organize the human spirit before they deal with it culturally , and we see it clearly when we notice the rebellion of some educational persons against the society because their culture forms a social burden on them, for example the teacher who teaches subjects that do not go with what he loves or he practices teaching because there are not job opportunities that go with his hopes , in both cases we see him dejected and suffers from psychological disease . So for this reason the duty of the state is the materialistic and the psychological education, which means making money as a mean and not as an end, and that to be able to insure the two benefits for the educationist.

Material and legislations Today's world is the world of material ,so every thing that serve this material , it is in fact serving the man's self and reflect his satisfaction on laws and legislations . Here, we start again from the beginning that these laws and legislations' targets should be focus on specific point, which is improving the man's financial situation. Therefore, each law helps in achieving this target is a justice one since the laws' honestly is measured by their achieving of the planned target.

Income, Legislations, and Laws From what we have explained we notice that we must reconsider legislations and laws that organize the lives of the individuals who live in the states that the level of the income of the individuals is less than the ones who live in the industrial or the successful states. And the question here: are the developing ready to rehabilitate their legislations, or this job can not be implemented because of the absence of the economic consciousness? In my opinion this job can be done through advertisement by making interviews, giving lectures, and by broadcasting the terms of the new legislations through newspapers and magazines, also we can make statistics to know the opinion of the people about the legislation that will be presented to the parliament. In my opinion that making statistics and presenting the important legislations and laws to take the opinion of the people about them will achieve a wide populist benefit which represents a big group of different opinions, also it represents in a direct way the opinion of the employers because it is impossible for a member in the parliament to use all his time in order to serve his electors and that by calling a group of them to discuss the legislation which is presented to the parliament. So the rule of discussion is done through a direct contact between the legislator and the street. But here I say: is there another way instead of this way which is sometimes difficult to be done?

The answer might be easy and that through the connection between the programs of the candidates the legislations that will be issued or modified or studied. So there must be a consensus between the populist wish in modifying legislations and laws and the programs which are announced by the candidates. The adopting of this standard helps very much in

124

Page 125: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

choosing the good candidates who represent the dreams of the electors that they want to achieve such as the economic reform through the study of the current economic situations, and the try to modify the legislations and the laws which stand as an obstacle on the road of achieving the required success, this means that the representatives must know all the problems of the people in order to find the solutions for them in the parliament.

So here we can also notice that the elector has a big responsibility towards the decisions which are made in the parliament because he is the one who has elected the candidate who represents him in the parliament to decide his destiny. In my opinion his responsibility is bigger than any citizen because the mistake of choosing the suitable person to represent the people in the parliament will cause damage for the whole nation. The mistake in this field represents a crime according to the convention of the civilized people who know the importance of the election, that the elector mostly changes his admire toward any candidate because of the changing of his convictions toward the candidate. For this reason we see that the candidates work hard to increase the percentage of the convictions of the electors toward them even if they have to discuss the electors through different Medias such as newspapers, magazines, television, and cultures.

But the fear is that the big businessmen will use their financial abilities to plant illusive convictions in the brains of the electors, and this is the phenomenon that differentiates the developing countries from the developed ones. In this case we will notice that the electors will believe the businessmen will achieve their hopes , and for this reason the hands of the electors has become un intentionally filling the electoral cards because they did not prepare themselves for doing this .

Here appears the importance of the populist consciousness in correcting the legislations and the laws which are not correct or they do not achieve the requirements of the people , and this means that the attribute of the people in this field is the attribute of observation, which means that the legislative mission of the people is not just to choose the representatives in the parliament , but also it extends to comprehend the observation of the works of the representatives through their study and realizing for the laws and legislations to make them suitable for the lives of the citizens , then they have to present their objections which must be discussed by the legislator in order to modify these laws and legislations and that when he makes sure that the content of these objections is true .

The populist observation for the implementation of laws and legislations has another benefit that the legislator in the parliament does not dare to follow a random method in issuing legislations.

So the continuous contact between the legislator and the citizens since the beginning of the second election is necessary to insure the legislative justice.

Science and legislation Somebody may say that teaching, learning, and science are the first duties of each country, but my answer here is: What is the fault of the government if it has presented to the citizens the best kind of science through the best methods, while the citizens show negativity towards this behavior? the another question is : Does the government have the ability to present science to the citizen which makes him a human being capable of achieving his benefit and the benefit of his country ? Another question: Are the desires of the individual to get science and knowledge static through the different stages of his life?

125

Page 126: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Man asks these questions and he can not find the answers only if he returns to his mind to ask it about the reasons that made him to adopt ignorance and not to adopt the modern scientific methods that the government is seeking to achieve, and then he will find that he is guilty against himself and the society. And this means that learning is not food which is given to us but it is obtained through the subjective motivation, for example every body has to his turn to arrive to the bus, or to the seller to get his commodity.

So the scientific and the cultural atmosphere which is prevailed in the society will facilitate the mission of the state in education, but my question in this field: Which is more active and stronger? Is it the state and in this case it has to start in taking care of science, or is it the society and then it will start? And if we put both if them in a balance, we will find that its two sides are equal.

The reality proves that society has to establish a scientific base regardless the educational policy which is adopted by the state because the door of science is opened for everyone who wants science. Man has to choose the kind of science that achieves his ambitions and desires, and this is called the scientific and the professional season which means that man has to choose the profession that achieves for him the biggest financial benefit during a certain time.

But if the state is unable to achieve a successful scientific policy, then it has to insure the balance between incomes and kinds of profession because the financial gains of the craftsman depend on his creativity in his profession, and not on the circumstances that help him in getting the biggest benefit that enables him to use his profession through a certain period. But unfortunately we find that many members of the nation ignore their professional desires in order to insure his living, because of what we can call the competition between professions.

From here we conclude that the educational role is not restricted on giving science but it must work to insure the scientific atmosphere that attracts the subjective scientific gain in order to make the individuals enjoy the complete freedom to choose the profession that goes with their desires and qualifications. So for this reason the economic legislations of the state must come from the wide base of the economists which begins from the individual because he represents an economic factory that consumes the production of the others, and products for the others at the same time. So for this reason the most important cultures or sciences that we must encourage the citizen to read are the economic subjects , and we can support this by broadcasting these subjects through different medias in an attractive and simple ways , also we must support all these things with the educational efforts that focus on the target that the medias seek for which can be done through legislations , for example by imposing sanctions on every one who does not park in the places that are specified for cars . Some body may say: What is the relation between this social phenomenon and the economy? The answer is that the illness begins small then it spreads to control all the body, so it is better to handle it in order to eliminate it while it is in its cradle. So the acceptance of the riot in our daily works will lead to the turbulence in the results of these works.

So the society has to take care of any fault whether it is small or big because we consider that the big fault is a group collective small fault, so silence about a fault in the family will inflate at school. Also if the educational system silences about it, then it will to the extent that that the society will not be able to fix it only by issuing the deterrent hard laws , so for this reason there is a big difference in laws and legislations between one country and another according to the age of man . Here we must mention that issuing new legislations in order to fix the old

126

Page 127: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

ones is more difficult than issuing legislations to organize the life of the children. So for this reason we find that dealing things from their roots is better than dealing them when they grow up. So there is a direct relation between the difficulty of issuing legislations and the age of the person, because whenever man becomes older then this will obligate to work very hard in preparing the legislations which are specialized for the persons who are younger. And here there is another question about the economic legislations: Is it better to import them ready or it is better to prepare the economic legislations which are suitable for our scientific, educational, and social circumstances? And the reasonable answer will be : that we can only recourse with legislations and laws because they are connected with the economic targets that they aim to achieve , but at the same time they must insure that the arrival toward the target which its details are understood is better than to arrive it through the way of imitation , because the first target enables us to setoff toward a civilized development which is special for us , as that as the owners of the western civilization have done when they borrowed our civilization , and after that they could achieve their recent civilization which made them feel proud , and to consider it more important and valuable than the other civilizations . And consequently this pride has made them to try to prevent the others to achieve their own civilization and that by pumping their materialistic civilization in a continuous way toward the places that enable the people of the developing countries to develop their civilization.

We can see this through the revision of these civilized states of their policy and that by resorting to adopt the policy of dialogue between them and the states which are backward culturally. But this policy is not built on the base of achieving the benefits of the states which are backward culturally, but it is built on the mutual interests of the civilized states, for example and which is the most important one is to develop a consumptive economy for their productive commodities, and this is the matter that the developing countries must take care of as much as they can. So they must take care of their own developing interests before they accept blindly what is implemented by the others in order no to be under the mercy of their behaviors , and not to lose the care about their own interests which the lowest limit that helps them one day to setoff to improve their economic situation and that through insuring a just coherence which insures for it the economic protection against the implementation of the policy of globalization that the nine industrial states are seeking for . So we must prepare ourselves scientifically in order not to know how to behave during an economic battle, that we will not be the winner part in it only if we build our new legislations on the base of making a strong economy that works on improving the level of the individual income and that by connecting income with the physical and actual effort, which means the economic legislations that must achieve the following diagram: The economic legislations, improving the level of the income, the economic reform And this means that there is no civilization without improving the level of the individual income. I have prepared this research to show the importance of starting the reform of the economic legislations according to the ladder of age and that by starting with children before and after their birth until they enter society, and that because of the role that the economic legislations plays in improving the performance of the other legislations which altogether help motivating the human brain to achieve its civilized targets.

Income and good performance

Some people say that commodities which are produced in Europe are better than the same commodities which are produced in China and India. However if we compare the income between the worker in China and India and the worker who produces the same products in the European countries, then we will find a big difference in the quality of the commodities between these countries , and this means that there is a relation between income and the goodness of the production . But the solution of the problem of the income in the developing countries is not an easy matter, because the price of the commodities which are produced by the worker whose performance is not good can not be raised in order to cover the new averages of the income which are demanded by him. And if we ignore this case then we will definitely face a case of a financial inflation, and this is the case where the average of the local consumption raises and also the inability of insuring the foreign currency which are required to import the requisites which are required to cover the excessive needs of consumption, and this is consequently will make the value of the local currency decrease because of the inability of supporting it with the foreign currency. So we notice that any economic activation will not be successful only if it is based on the policy of taking and giving , and the successful in achieving this rule is the only way to make income fair and able to achieve for his owner what he needs , also the success in implementing this rule is an evidence of the success of the process of the economic reform , and also we can at least depend on this rule to develop our economy , but if we do not implement on this rule then we will lose the chance of identifying the start point . And we can approach the validity of this idea through the following: that reform must start first with man because he is the one who chooses the materials which are required to start any industry, also he is the one who modifies its qualities to make it more suitable, and of course he does this to insure an economic power in order to insure a better level for living, and this means that there is a circular ring between the reform and the economic development.

And because I am a member of this society I must feel its happiness and its sadness. So for this reason I have prepared this research about the income that most of the people who work in the public sector suffer from it, which means that most of the people are employees for the government because of its policy which its target is to control the economy. But to leave this policy is not an easy matter, but it can be done gradually and that after the study of the economic reality in order to know the factors which led to this policy, and after that we must benefit from what is available in order to raise the levels of the incomes and that through the economic reform and that by working hard to develop it according to the global standards. So we must benefit from the experiences of the others in order to form ours, and then we must work hard in order to reach to the global competition in this field.

3- SavingSaving is very economic important factor because it is the borderline between wasting and neglect. So, man should provide his essential needs then start thinking in saving, even God has made each organ of man's body wok in coherence with the other organs. So, we notice that the saving process is very essential for organizing the commercial and financial operations within society's people; old families in fact were tried hard for saving in form of saving some foods to be in use only at need or in special seasons (rations), so saving is just a balancing process in man's life:

Income = spending + savingSaving in this equation is its safety because when revenue grows less, saving is helping in making up for supporting spending to provide for man a suitable living standard. In case of revenue's growth, saving is preventing wasting to make this man's life equally balanced as the old proverb says (save your white pound for your black day).

The governments also start to save some of their agricultural yields (naturally or after making them as product) to be in use in days of aridity, they also save a special amount of foreign currency to help in controlling the materials' prices in case of declining of currency's worth.

The rehabilitation of the individual to use to saving In no doubt that saving is an educational process. Money is the target of every one, and it can be either a great benefit for him if he uses it in a proper way, or a curse if he uses it in a bad way .so the process of saving prevents money from being harmful to its owner, that the diagram of spending goes in a straight way in spite of the vacillations of the income. For this reason the parents should teach their children to save money , for example by saving part of their money in a small box which can be used in necessity such as helping the others ,or when the family faces a financial distress , or when they need to buy some thing which is very expensive for them . So this money can be used in organizing the financial life of the child, and the implementation of this educational subject will remain until he enters the school, then the mission of learning and supervising will be on both the parents and the school. I want to say here that the process of teaching is not restricted on going to the school to study the books, but the duty of the educational system is to transform the bored atmosphere of the school into an atmosphere full of joy and fun by doing different activities such as trips, games, offering assistants, and opening new educational courses. This educational and social style grows up the relation between the educational system and the students, enhancing in a direct way the relation between the teachers and the students and between the students themselves, and this will be obvious through the spirit of dedication in serving the society which is considered as a part of them.

This matter will encourage the educational person to evaluate the importance of the public money because it is a kind of saving. So the man who graduated from the factory of the educational board will accept to pay the tax and to invest especially when the executive and the legislative authorities complete the mission of the educational board by leading the process of investment in a good way and that by depending on the money which has been collected by the taxes, or on the money of the local and the foreign investors. Here it must be said that tax is a kind of savings which is spent for the interest of the public , and the good use of this money will make the owners of the money to give it to be invested in good and useful projects especially when the laws of the investment are not imposed on the investors , and when they share the executive authority in preparing the constitutions and the laws and the legislations of the investment , because they learnt when they were students to practice the process of saving and that by putting money in the box of savings , and by sharing in making decision about spending the money .

Here we notice that school, or university, or any occupational institution can be a stage in preparing the individual to enter the society in a perfect way. And if the individual does not follow the laws of the society, we consider that as shortening of his society. And this will make us wonder why he was not affected by his educational system when he was at school? Was it the weakness in the capacity of the educational system, or the cooperation between the school and the family was not existed, or because of his joining to a new school that he could not cohere with it?

Tax and Saving We have said that there is a tax saving which means that there is a strong relationship between tax and saving because the executive authority collects the necessary money to do the jobs and the services on behalf of the citizens, because the individual is un able to do them, and that because he needs a lot of money and labor and administrative system to achieve them. Most governments have failed to establish the trust between them and their citizens which is obvious through their un acceptance to pay the tax willingly , because what they will pay will save for them money that can be used for doing their daily jobs , because as we said that saving is a process of sacrifice that the saver expects to live a better life , but this target is not easy to be done , and it can be done only in an atmosphere full of the feeling that the personal benefit will be achieved through the public one . So if the executive authority could not achieve the desires of the savers from such as the failure of the tax- saving in insuring the social services, then the marks of grumbling will appear on the faces of the citizens who paid the tax. so the first thing to be done in order to achieve the reform of the tax is to study the competence of the human resources, and the payment of the tax must based on just and convinced standers, and that by making the citizens see that the tax will be used to support them economically whether through contribution or offering services such as loans.

The best way to make the citizens to pay the tax willingly is they see that the government has used the tax in building social services , but if the government does not use the tax in the building social services , then the local and the foreign investors will not invest because the successful investment of the tax is considered the perfect way to encourage the investors to invest in our country ,so the tax is connected with the benefit or the damage of its use , which is the responsibility of the executive authority , and the good use of it is the standard of the activity or the weakness of the individual saving , that the individual who depends on the government to build the future of him and his family is the one who activates a continuous economic movement . So the economic activity will be the flourished when the government takes the responsibility of some activities on behalf of its citizens, making them by that active and dynamic persons looking forward a life full of mental creativity.

How beautiful is it is when the government rations the use of the tax of the saving which achieves two goals , first : it achieves the justice of the tax , second : it gives the spiritual comfort to the ones who pay the tax because they know that their money has become in honest hands .

We can benefit from imposing the percentage of the tax and the way of collecting it to encourage the process of saving and investment in the special sector, because the individual investment is more active than the collective one which is subjected to certain laws. From here we conclude that the tax- saving can be used as a magic tool by the government to interfere in the economy, and in my opinion it is a substitutive way than to lead the economic units in a direct way which is prevailed in the communist regimes, but this interference will be dangerous if the money is not used in order to increase the incomes of the citizens. From here that the increase of the incomes is one of the factors that encourages the increase of the amount of the tax – saving, so we live in a circle:

Income _ tax- saving _ income _ tax- savingThese rings are firmly connected with each other , because the individual ambitions to be a real partner with the executive authority in the investment of the tax- saving , and he will not be ready to keep his partnership with it when he sees that it does not use the money which he has deposited in a proper way , either by its reflection on the increase of his income through creating new jobs , or through the increase of his profits , or through giving him new laws and

130

Page 131: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

facilities that can be used to increase his economic activity , and the perfect example is " the support of the government to export some commodities " this means that the money which has been collected is used to insure work for new workers ,or to improve the living average of the ones are working .

Does the economic reform help in saving? This reform can be done through improving the situation and the amount of savings. Saving is the money which can be useful in its re consumption, or to invest it in big projects especially those the individuals can not do because they require a very deal of money and experiences.

The economic backwardness is resulted from not putting a productive plan according to the global requirements, that our local market is definitely part of them. So the industrial movement toward the global standard is the most important priority that we must pay attention in the correction of our industrial process, because this will increase our savings from the foreign and the local currency which is necessary for the process of the economic reform. So we must increase the amount of the foreign and the local currency but without touching the savings of the citizens and to work with them and to help them in investing their savings in projects which are studied according to the global market , but this does not prevent from establishing a common informative center between the public and the private sectors that can study the local production in order to change the industry which loses into a one that wins , in order after that to set off into an industry which can achieve the atmosphere of the global competition . At the same time we must study the development of the energies according to our study of the fact of the industry , then after that we must work on exploring the hidden energies to invest them for the public interest and this means that we must establish a work shop that includes every loyal economist to study the different factors of the investment to create the balance between them , and this will lead to raise the average of the income which is the demand of the citizens who long forward a true reform . This means that our happiness must not be connected with increasing the numbers of the factories, but it must be connected with giving licenses to establish successful factories, because the giant total production is a burden on the country if it does not study the process of marketing before the process of production, also the bad production will cause damage to the savings which consequently will obstacle the economic reform.

I have called and I still call for establishing an economic center for re searches which its job is to study the economic benefit of each project in a scientific way. But till now we still watch the establishing of factories in a random way which forms a burden on our savings of the foreign currency. Here I want to assure that because there is not a scientific law for the process of the investment this has pushed the illusive investors to use the savings of the citizens for their own interest, which consequently leads to deprive the economy from these savings.

The activity of the executive authority and the tax- savingThe commercial establishments that pay the tax are the same who are the commercial and the industrial activities that produce a net profit which is subjected to the tax regardless the establishment doing this activity whether it is a public or a special sector . The establishment occasionally covers its spending through the profits, but if it does not achieve the profits then it will consume its money. So if it does not find currency then it will face a difficult situation

131

Page 132: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

that will make it to debt or to take loans, or to do illegal commercial jobs that enable it to play with the greedy of some small investors whose ambition is to invest their money. And this of course will waste their dreams through illusive investment which its target is just to collect money, and this is what we want the owners of the limit savings to be warned about and that by their cooperating to establish good investments, and not follow who pretend that they are the owners of the useful investment for them. Here the government must plan successful investments on all scales and that by watching the investments of the special sector just like the public one, because the economic mass is one and can not be divided. So if the government interests in investing the savings of the special sectors then this will help it to get rid of some burdens such as decrease the percentage of the unemployment, and to take the responsibility of employing who graduates from universities and institutions. For this reason the executive authority and the chambers of the commerce must always evaluate the situation of the public and the special investments, and to study the necessary productive and the commercial projects and this will encourage both sectors especially when they see that there are studies which are prepared in a scientific way by the public and the special sectors to know the economic benefits.

Here I see that the contribution in establishing projects is better to absorb the financial inflation than to impose taxes which is considered by some people as the best way to end the financial inflation, but this theory has become unsuccessful because it leads to economic negatives when the executive authority is unable of investing its money. So for this reason making decisions for investing the money by its owners is the best if rules and basics are put to organize it, because the target of the special sector gives us the idea that this sector has a good management that achieves high profits which are un comparable with the profits or the tolls achieved by the projects of the public sector. But this view is not correct one hundred percent in this time after hearing that giant companies in America which is considered the biggest totalitarian country have announced bankruptcy, because of their bad management and the quick decrease of the value of their stock.

Here I call for a new idea about the cooperation between the state and the special sector which has to do with the investments of the special and the public sectors, emphasizing that investing the taxes in the projects of the services is in my opinion a commercial investment because it either directly or in directly to establish the projects of the investments which are called the tax of the income.

The activating of the effort through saving We say that man works to insure a certain level for his life by putting part of his money in a box that enables him to establish an individual invest able project or by contributing in a big invest able project where the money creates money, and man is seeking to do this as long as there are ambitions that he wants to achieve and which can not be achieved by his own money, and this means that you can not get any thing only on the expanse of other things.

So the motivation to improve the level of the living through increasing the amount of savings will induce the brain to think creatively. So if we want to achieve a mental creativity , then we must encourage the process of saving and not to depend on the policy of giving in one hand and taking by the other one , because this will limit the development of man and to lose his freedom , because we know that the use of his money is part of his personal freedom as long as he does not use his money in a way that does not cause damage to the others implementing by that the rule : the individual liberty ends when the liberty of the others begins .

132

So every one has the freedom in using his own money, and for this reason the economists are against the idea of being the executive authority as a custodian on this special will, because many civilized countries have begun to think that the activity of the special sector in investment is better than public one. I want to say that the developing countries must begin the implementation of what the civilized countries have achieved, but this needs a common cooperation between the public and the special sectors to this theory on the ground. So for this reason the bonuses which are paid within specific economic standards will help the process of saving but on one condition of not increasing the taxes such as cleanness or welfare, or to increase the prices of some consumptive commodities. This means that we must deal with the worker who devotes himself to achieve their goals in a different way from the workers who do not have dreams. So the policy of encouraging the workers for saving will convince them with the benefit if connecting the effort with the work and to get rid off complaining about the weakness of the salaries in the public sector. So instead of waiting the government to respond to their requests they can achieve their requests through their physical and mental effort .Here I want to assure that giving the financial bonuses to any citizen can be especially to the one who works in the government can be done through decreasing the taxes or even canceling them .

The information and saving In our recent time information has become the basic factor which interferes in the behavior of our lives, for example it makes us to consume a specific commodity and it pushes us to decrease the spending on some commodities to buy another ones, also it shows us the qualities of the commodities making the craftsmen who need them to buy them. Not only that but also it informs us about things that you need around the world and which are not existed in our country in order to bring them, and this process is called import. Information is also the way that arouses the desires of the other people to get your mental or industrial productions which making the contact with more easily between you and the importer for making deals and contracts , and this process is called the export . So we must benefit from the potent power of the information and that by transforming it into a consumptive one based on the basics of arousing the desire of having beautiful and perfectionist things, but by connecting all these with the labor. So the advertisement must concentrate on the importance of the labor, for example you can predict a very tired man and a very beautiful perfectionist commodity by him, and the meaning of this picture is that labor is a social duty even it is very hard but there is a restitution for it which is the getting of the commodity that he always dreamt of. This kind of advertisement is better than just showing car because by this we encourage not only the consumption of money in achieving one desire of our desires but also at the same time we have aroused a social problem that the loser in his job or even the one who does not work will commit mistakes to achieve their goals. Advertisement has bigger benefit when it concludes these three factors labor, saving, and desire according to this relation:

Labor _ saving _ desireFor example we put a poster in the street prepared in artistic way which concludes a picture of a man working in a factory or in a market and beside him another picture of the same man who carries a box putting in it what he earns from his job, then a third picture riding a car which its value is according to what he has collected in the box of the second picture. The people who see this poster will think that this is an advertisement for the car, but at the same time it may help even in direct way that man must work hard to get this car, and this can be done only by saving. And by this the advertisement has done its job about saving, which means that information does not form any social damage because its aim is not to raise the

133

Page 134: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

average of consumption of the consumer who suffers from shortage in his income, but to work on increasing the productive power in order to increase the average of consumption in a particular commodity. So by this the advertisement has achieved the balance between spending and income which is the best way to insure the dreams and the wishes of the saver by investing the money which he has saved.

Saving and the economic development In doubt that the successful economist takes into his consideration that saving is one of the most essential resources to support the plans of the development which are connected with the recent and the futuristic economic reform. There is no reform without expense , but the one who carries this burden is the one who will get back the money which is paid and its profits , and he will use the savings in the process of the economic reform which proved to be one of the most successful economic remediation even if the state uses the method of issuing stocks to finance the saving of the local and the foreign currency Here I want to say that we must allow to save the foreign currency in order to participate in the local economic activities because the internal debt which is resulted from the use of this saving is very useful , because it saves the country from the external debts which do not belong to the giant projects that the local savings are un able to finance them especially if the finance is by the foreign currency . But in all cases saving is still the best way to finance the local projects which will be constructed through the economic reformative movement. And the production which is resulted from the good use of saving will bring the foreign currency resulted from the export. So through this process we can transform the savings from local to foreign currency , and the first motivation to push the citizen to use his savings in development is the credibility in the quality of the reformative plans of the development , and the best credibility is when the citizen feels that it is useful for his living .

From here the executive authority must clarify the quality of the plans in cooperation with the administrations that represent the different groups of the citizens. And we must know that the best use of saving encourages the foreign investors, otherwise the international monetary funds will not invest in a country that its citizens refuse to invest in it. From here we notice the importance of the tax – saving which must be used by the executive authority even if it keens to collect small savings, especially when the target of the tax – saving is to help the citizen to increase his income through finding successful projects. And this way protects the executive authority from the economic crises that resulted from the backwardness in the average of the incomes because of the un successful investments, or the investments which were done by some collectors of the money who misused the tax – saving, especially when we see that citizen has saved his money to decease his consumption of some commodities in order to consume a new commodity by using his savings. And here we see the benefit of connecting saving with spending according to the priorities, and this will en able the executive authority to keep the relation between offer, request and saving and that by finding the commodities according to the desires of the local and the foreign consumers. But if saving fails to achieve the psychological desires, then man will suffer from psychological cases such as depression. So for this reason the executive authority must execute the process of saving in a good way because it is a national fortune and especially the external saving because it supports the national economy, and for this reason we must do a lot of work to get it back to the country by different ways which guarantee its use in a safe way, in order to get it back to its owners with the profits.

For example the money of the Lebanese expatriates who left Lebanon with their money because of the conflicts in it is more than what the Lebanese has from the foreign currency.

134

Page 135: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

So, how it is useful to use the external savings of any citizen than to take loans which have hard conditions and high interests. In addition to this we must encourage the citizens who live here or the expatriates to invest their money which are abroad in side their country, and this will encourage the foreigners and the global banks to invest in this country. But if the citizens do not invest in their country, then the foreign investors will not invest in this country. But we must take into our consideration that the investment which depends on both the local and the foreign experiences is more useful than one which depends on the local experiences , because the mental saving is as important as the financial one .

And the Arab citizens have broad mental savings that if they have a suitable scientific atmosphere, then they will grow up in the Arab world just as in the countries of expatriate. So for this reason the Arab citizens must un cover these mental savings and to work on protecting and encouraging them, and to contact with the mental savings of the other people and by this we can benefit from the mixture of these various savings to correct some of our mental savings which will benefit the society in which they appear.

Saving and Marketing We have said that saving is an instrument that organizes the relation between the offer and the request or between spending and income, all these things are connected with the process of marketing. The successful marketing is the one that studies the purpose of saving, and its content from the goals and the ambitions of the savers. And of course is a process that deprives the individual from having some commodities on the expense of expecting a futuristic possession, for example we see some families purvey some commodities which are existed in a particular season or circumstances. Also saving can insure making tourist trips on holidays, and for this reason the offices of the tourism will prepare a timetable for the tourist trips.

So the system of marketing has to lead saving toward the target that man is seeking to achieve at certain time circumstances. Also the marketer must encourage saving which enables the saver to buy a commodity , for example by making new materials and equipments for homes , and then to promote these commodities between certain consumers who are able to buy these commodities , and we call this way the desirous saving . So if the sales representatives did not follow this then the consumer in his return would not follow the policy of saving that enables him to buy these new commodities through loans and facilities. And here I want to talk about what is called between the sales representatives in using saving for their own interests, which means that they have used the obligatory saving either to increase the average of selling of some materials on the expense of other ones, or to facilitate the sales of a company on the expense of other companies. And of course the obligatory saving can be executed only in special cases, for example the strong competitions which are resulted from increasing offer and decreasing request, or because of a new commodities which are competitive in price and quality, or because of the continuous decrease in the average of the incomes.

Here we face economic problem resulted from arousing the factor of consumption and from the inability of increasing the average of the incomes which are not enough to insure the lowest level of living. So how can we handle this subject especially if we know that the increase of the averages of the consumption of some perfectionist kinds and the ignoring of implementing the principle of using the incomes according to the priorities of the materials which are necessary for life will collapse the society ethically and educationally? The best way to handle this by making information to focus on it and that by learning the individual

135

Page 136: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

how to ration the spending of his income , or by establishing productive projects making the citizen to think of increasing his income by investing his money in them instead of spending it on useless commodities .

So from all these things we see that the best way to handle all these problems is by connecting the profits of the productive projects with the income, which in its return will push the process of consumption to more motion and that by financing incomes from benefits:

Production _ profits _ increase in incomes _ increase in consumption

The banking saving The banking saving has many forms and kinds such as the different kinds of deposits, or the projects of the banking investment, or the participation of the banks in other projects whether it is mental or financial. But the good use of this kind of the bank saving is connected with the trust of the saver in the jobs of the bank, or in its administration, or in the results of its jobs. So for this reason has to establish a scientific center for research to study the local jobs of the banks in order to correct them , especially the way of investing their deposits and that by eliminating the projects which lose and can not be reformed to make them profit .

If the center of research does this mission, then this will encourage depositing their money in the banks and not to the illusive investors. Also this mission will decrease the burdens of the state in doing the direct investment which is the perfect to decrease the numbers of the ones who want to work for it including the ones graduate from the universities.

And here I have got the idea of establishing special banks from the money of the populist saving, that the money and the profits which are collected in these banks can be used to establish successful economic projects which can be administrated by an elected administration in order to make the owners of the limitable income feel that their collective finance to the banks whose goals are just economic is in fact a merger of all the mental and financial abilities in the economic reform. And this process will help in decreasing the external burden of the state resulted from taking external loans and assistants to use them in the process of the economic reform. So it is good for the banks to organize the process of investing the able saving and not to collect the money firstly and then to think of finding the suitable projects to invest them.

Here I want to assure that the populist practice in investing the savings of the ones whose incomes are weak in the individual investment and the strong incomes in the collective one is the best way to decrease the percentage of unemployment, and as we know that every family has members who do not work.

From here this family can employ its members in projects in which it puts its money, which means that there is a relation between the investing the saving and the employing those who do not work through a social cooperation prepared for this purpose by the special sector. And this purpose is the projects which must be administrated by the bank because they submit to a certain banking deal which is like the bank of populist credit .And the main mission of this bank is not restricted on collecting money to deliver it to other boards to invest it, but it extends to invest the money of savers. In another meaning the job of the savers is just to benefit from the interests of the bank, and to create economic brains to invest their savings in

a direct way which is the best investment we can do and it is better than what the state has done which was just collecting these savings in its safes without submitting them to any invest able mechanism. So by these we have achieved other gains which are the decrease in the amount of the savings in the local currency, and the increase of those which are in the foreign currency, especially when the investors of the savings work on establishing projects that able to provide us with the lot of the foreign currency. Supporting by that the government with the foreign currency, and also it helps the state to get rid off the economic assistants that have different purposes and that by the contribution of everyone in the policy of the economic reform. From this we conclude that the duty if the banks is to supervise the stages of establishing these projects and then watch their administration very well , because study , building , administration , and the continuation of the actual work of the projects , all are considered one mass helping on the failure or the success of any project .

Habilitation and Saving We can consider habilitation and saving as two words but they have one target which is the decrease of the excessive spending. By habilitating everyone can have saving starting from the one who works in the government , and by saving he puts every penny in its right place and reserves the public possessions in order to work in a good way as long as possible . From this we conclude that saving without habilitation and vice versa is impossible, and for this reason we have to put a rational policy if we want to be credible in achieving a policy for saving that enables us to support our futuristic economy. So for this reason ration helps us to keep a spare amount of money to be used in certain plans, and in this case habilitation forms the backbone the successful developing plans because it is the safety valve against the economic crises resulted from the local or the global economic crises.

The best the way to use habilitation is by implementing it on the developing plans and on the economic reform, and that by following the ladder of the developing and the reformative priorities by spending on the profits which are expected from the local and the foreign currency.

For example the process of financing the tourist works by depending on the local currency, for example if the ministry of tourism studied the economic profits of a tourist ruined area and announced the establishing of a tourist company by depending on the local savings and saved all the possible ways to promote the tourist village globally, then this will transform the local currency into the foreign currency paid by the tourists. This way is better than the way of collecting the local currency and putting it in the safe of the state without forming a motive power to any economic activity or movement. Some economists believe that this process is useful in dealing the case of inflation, or the financing of the illusive request of the commodities. But the owner of this theory has forgotten the negative results of it, such as the weakness the production in facing the global competition either in price or in quality.

So habilitation in establishing projects is a habilitation for the economic life in a perfect way, because we all work in projects whether they are big or small and which belong either to the local or to the foreign sectors. I do not believe that there is any one who lives without industrial or economical projects, for example the simple person begins his job by opening a mini market which is for him a small project because he has put all his savings in a project that enables him to insure a certain level of income. But before doing this project he must

137

Page 138: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

study it in a good way, because if he makes any mistake in any decision, this will make him suffer from its results for a long time, especially if he is responsible for the living of his family .So for this reason all the members of this family must share in making this destined decision.

So what about the decisions which are made by the government who is responsible for its people, do not they need an actual ration?

Saving and Taxes Taxes are the money invested in services because we consider the investment of the state in certain projects is a service investment, because they insure jobs for citizens especially when we establish projects of double services. For example when the state propose a project aiming to clean the roads and to collect the garbage from the containers and to wash them and another project to insure the clothes for the ones who work for the government, both of these projects can be financed by the taxes or by the finance of the special sector but on one condition to free it from the taxes. This means that the individual savings can be used in the service projects directly by their owners instead of collecting them by the individuals to use them later, and the first one is the best because of the speed and the quality in the performance. And here appears the importance of changing the considerable situation of the workers from being just workers into job owners. And here we can notice an important issue that the gain of the saving investment will be far better when the state eliminates the taxes and substitutes them with materials and services for the workers. Also there is another benefit for using the savings instead of the taxes which is to learn the saver how to achieve the ultimate benefit from his savings. We can say here: to simplify the use of the taxes through the use of the saving, which in its return helps in insuring the services. From here we can say that saving is connected with services which are controlled by the state , so if the state desires to take on its burden the mission of doing all services including the services of investment , this will help it to pull the savings into its safe and vice versa . So if the saver uses his savings either individually or collectively through projects, then the result will be for his own benefit. But all these things must be done under the supervision of the governmental scientific center which is responsible for the coherence between the hopes and the economic plans. So the scientific supervision is required to insure the use of saving instead of taxes, because of the difficulty in achieving the public benefit in a good way for the public sector.

The Arab Saving No doubt that some areas of the Arab world have many recourses and cultures. The Arab world must form a strong scientific economic power that enables it to stand in the face of the big industrial states which have big scientific economic powers , and in order to do that the citizens of the Arab world must form a common Arab market for saving used for the interest of the whole Arab nation . And this market will invest the money to support the boxes of the development in the Arab world, and these boxes which have developed scientific centers will allow the money to be transmitted through them from one Arab state to another. And these centers will have a clear opinion about the benefits of the projects and their needs and necessities on the level of the Arab world. And this means that establishing of any project must be connected with the benefit that it achieves for the Arab world, which means that the profits of any project must be distributed between the partners of this box according to their contribution. Here we must take into our consideration the difference between the states

138

Page 139: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

which have recourses and the ones who do not have and that by studying the economy of these countries to develop it as much as possible to decrease its dependence on the saving box. In my opinion the best thing we can offer to the poor states is to import the efforts , the experiences , and the knowledge of the other people, and it is the duty of the Arab people to uncover them in the poor countries to know the reason of their weakness , and to study the economic reality through the fund of the Arab saving such as the case in the bank of the Islamic development ,but by giving it broad authorities in order not to make the countries who have a weak economy as a burden on the states who have a strong economy , because this will make the economy of the whole Arab world weak , especially the economists of the Arab nation are afraid of the running out of the buried recourses in the states that are strong economically . So for this reason the most important mission of the bank of the Arab saving is to achieve the balance between the states of the Arab world by using the Arab recourses for the Arab public interest, and that by making the states which are weak in recourses as source of power for the states that are strong economically. This means that the states which are weak economically can become a futuristic economic power if the Arab world takes care of them, implementing by this the brotherly relationship which is supposed to be existed between the states of the Arab world.

Here I say that I adopted a one method of the potent methods which their aim is the economic reform, and this method is the investing of the saving in the economic development.

Bound, shares and stocks Different authorities ( governmental or private ones) are issuing bounds in order to collect specific sum can stop up any deficit they suffer from, this sum can be considered as a compensation of any loss in these companies' activities or works. These bounds, in my opinion, are just loans help those who ask for loans for a while and then he transfer them to shares or try to increase the present shares price by increasing his capital. in all cases the process of getting these loans should be subjected to very strict conditions to guarantee the contributors ' rights, in the joint-stock companies their solvency is the required matter for grantee any loan. Sometimes the basic financers do not have the required money or they want to distribute the dangers of many companies by distributing some of their properties in each company, here I call this kind of companies the funds companies because any contributor's importance is measured by his amount of money in this project. The general assembly however is focusing on members of board of directors and considers them in full charged about their behavior towards the company they manage.

So, choosing those members in most cases is depend on their sufficient financial solvency to protect their bad behavior because they are always subjected to general assembly mercy by subjecting them to questions in any time it likes . There are some foundations or banks announce of issuing stocks for different projects (services, industrial, commercial …) to use these stocks in speculation works in order to provide an annual profits for their holder. Here appears the experienced and worldly-wise speculator because of his great experience in this field, but there are so many people who have lost a lot of money in this risky process. Regarding its risky, we find that the speculator dose not accept to commit the lowest level of profit which may reflect negatively upon investor.

The relation between the power of sharesand establishment marketing

At first, we should not permit any company to announce on its shares unless its economic utility is fulfilling the biggest rate of positivism. The purchasing process for its shares will form an income source for many limited income people, so the random decision will damage the national economy, which reflects negatively indirectly on income. So, individual's income is the first and last affected of that economic activity either what is related to present factories or in planning for new economic factories or projects ; economy in general is the total of projects so as much there is some weakness in those factors' harmony , as much the weakness in dealing with global economy.

World in general is swarming with big production that consumers can not hold as a result of the increasing of supply and demand , collapsing consumption rates, and arising poverty rate in the consumption people for this production. Human contributes in this disaster when he starts damaging nature that prevents all people from its different forms and types of giving.

So, we as development countries should handle the stock market situation in order to keep marketing these shares up and down in a way suit our national economy, public savings, and the inner investment's confidence. Here, we should know that our economy is completely different from the big industrial countries' one especially the countries of southern east of Asia that faced some problems in their factories and companies shares worth, but their strong economy and international banks protect them from complete deficit . However, the weak economies of development countries dose not help in applying stock market project, so we should consider special conditions in treatment with this project. We can ask every economic foundation wish to enter this market to fill out a form to the related administrative assembly; this assembly's decision will be the motive for all foundation to modify its positions in order to be able to enter this stock market, which is the real standard for each foundation's power.

Money market and globalization: The relationship between the ability of the enterprise for issuing the shares and cashes and the facing of Globalization, it is the essential criterion for succeeding to any project, this refers to the strong and plain relationship in between them, thus any economical study that does not take into consideration this relation, therefore, this study is considered failed so it must begin from the end to the beginning, and must make a calculation of cost for the producer then making a study of marketing on the exterior and local domain, then we export the justified shares due to the economical utility, then we can only get.The success of our project by the actual voting which is resulted from the size of paid sums in possession the issuing shares that are resulted from the project before establishing, that is not to finance the setting up by some people who desire to create the project, the shares can be collected on the ground of the reputation of those persons not to result of the study of the economical utility and it is the mistake itself that the economists must pay attention to it, and calling not to institute joint-stock company or the associations of capital in general except in the light of studying a successful economical utility and we build a popular voting around it by the use of shares.

Here, I call to maintain our existent economical system in order to make it closer to our admission in the International Trade Organization with the approval of Its conditions to accept the idea of forming any new economical project and this can not be completed except by founding a center for the scientific research related to the market of the shares and cashes

140

Page 141: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

that is equipped with all instruments such as experts, supplies and computerized systems, and by scanning and scrutiny of putting each an economical establishment on the basis of international and competitor measures and the conditions of the International Trade Organization with putting the accepted rates for success in this identification in order to improve the standard of living, in addition to the various devices which lessen the dependence upon aids and the exterior loans consequently, this scientific center must find remedies for the current economical diseases to prevent the extension of these diseases to relate the projects that are decided to production and all of them is the sole mean to head for a perfect cash market.

The politics of loans: A lot of private and public authorities resort to borrowing by issuing the policies of loans for increasing the circulating capital of the works of expansion of establishment activities, hence these polices or bills are exposed to circulation in the cash market or what is called in the commercial idiom (stock market), from here I want to say that the increasing of the circulating capital either by issuing the policies of loans or shares is considered in itself a critical procedure unless it is based on a particular, complete and economical study when releasing to supply a material lack and without taking into consideration the perception of the illness that is issued for it, this issuance represents the economical remedy to this deficiency, and we notice that this matter is subordinated only to the opinion of the general assembly which hastens to do its decisions during a short duration and without subjugation to a full study, forgetting that the decided resolution does not reflect on the buyer of the policies or on the commercial institution that suffer from financial inefficiency or it has unreal aspirations, however, this matter is connected with integrated economy of a country proceeding towards the economical reform.

We entirely have to cooperate for the benefit of this economy according to the popular saying: (if your neighbor is in blessing then you are in blessing too), the strong economy is the one that its individuals live in comfort and luxury, of course, the need for money is an economical necessity and that the citizen contributes in this need to get a sufficient income, is an important economical base which is the relation between the native and the existent economical projects that are constructed, inasmuch as these projects prove their success, the citizen is attracted by investment inside his country but this matter attracts the expatriates and the foreigners to investment in our country when they see that we are qualified to employ our money in the restricted productive projects.

The gradual entrance into money market: It is not necessary in a weak economical situation that is depended on the customs supporting system or prevention the import or searching for irregular opportunities to marketing the accumulated goods to resort to the hasting in application the cash market or the stock market concerning the bad effects which result throughout this hastening and one of the important things is the quick decrease of the capital of the old economical establishments or whose budget suffers from accumulated financial insufficiency without resorting to its administrative boards or its owners to determine the remedy that return the financial situation to their institutions to the normal condition, and follows this danger a risk which is situated in case that does not make a return for distribution the economical abilities in a perfect way and it is what we can call the rearranging of the economical house in a good manner after we put an end to the value of each part of the house furniture by considering it an inseparable part from the total furnishings to this house.

141

Page 142: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

This matter can be detailed by redistributing the production means in terms of place and conformity that must be available in between them to give a greater possible productive capacity which helps in finding a worth to the share in a best way of what it is issued shares on the base of the current industrial case, thus, it is wise to prepare the economical state that allows setting up the cash market and this subject can not be completed in a sudden way, because of what we reached it gradually have to be balanced step by step, to protect the economy from subjection to economical suffocations which affect in a harmful way on the economy.

Economic cures: Unable of facilitating the making of stock market is resulted from economic disease that we suffer from. So, we should resort directly to economic reform to build up special economy can stands against all surrounding and changing standards. Here neglecting this reform may delay the peaceful coexistence of our people with other Arabian ones, furthermore this neglect may cause our break up of the whole world, so we can use some possible indications:1- The important question: what is the situation pf the present local or global economic industries and establishments? 2- Do these present establishments had been set up on the basic of custom protection, import barring? 3- What is the situation of the same establishments in our neighbor countries? 4- What are the effects of these industries on income?5- What is the local element's rate in these industries?6- What are the possible results of redistributing hands to set the suitable person in the suitable place? According to the priority principle of each commodity comparing with the global competition.7- Can we get used of the available capabilities for erection future; this is the process that enhances the value of new projects and save the collapse pf present ones. 8- Studying the reason of collapsing the share's price and handling them before the

company's asking of floating in stock market. Here, I suggest to create a temporary stock market that depend on election operation as the ones that people do for any possible actions so evaluating the shares of any economic project that want to place on the market , allow us to recognize its future before its exposure to the real economic damage that is resulted from that circulation.

9- Making the circulation power in any stock market has the same of global ones, in other words the belief in economic establishments' power locally and on the international level as well and consequently proving for any global investor the healthy of the establishment that issue these shares. This is what we see or heard of shares' price change in the international stock market ( London , Tokyo, New York ….) considering the importance of this changing up and down on the international economy's power . This is what we can call one sort of globalization considering the global influence of these markets on weak countries' economy.

So, calling international investments is measured by the cadastral survey that the project's production use up , as the investor of ( SOFT WARE )programs , those investors find that they can collect easily so many millions of dollars as a results of density of population that use this program.

All these studies are just to help in finding some solutions for these economics' problem of our establishments, which are considered the motive for unemployment's income supporting currencies and the basic for economic flourishing. Here, I think we should hurry in finding

142

Page 143: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

the proper solution for two reasons: the first: keeping up what we have achieved by using it correctly, while the second: knowing the ability of depending on present to build up good future; any delay in this modification is considered a crime because this delay will definitely reflect our civilization delay since the civilized person is not responsible for helping us in this matter.

The organized authority on money market : No doubt that this authority should be very neutral by electing it from many different economic activities (public and private sectors) because each activity can not sell their shares directly for people, but it needs this stock market. This economic foundation should try hard to settle its financial situations in order to float in these markets, so the way of election should be depending on this standard: each foundation nominees one member who has special cultural qualifications and big experiences in stock market's management; meanwhile we should open special institutions for teaching and preparing some pf university's graduators, who are examined by special committee. We can also send some bankers to big industrial countries for acquiring the needed experience, in addition to ask those managers to set the basic stone for creating the required stock market for circulating stocks. here, expansion this field will incite each commercial or industrial foundation for handling its problems quickly if there is a little decline in its shares in this market, which is controlled by the final customer opinion or majority opinion that is of course better than project's owners' ones.

So, stock market is the reflective mirror of our real economic establishments' activity, here, board of directors of each company that feels its weak circulating should hurry in revealing the reasons and find the proper solutions. However, the power of this circulation is not a proof for this establishment's power; this power is represented by keeping the shares' worth within the specific period for getting back at least its capital. this process is very hard one considering the establishment's subjecting to many economic changes between the period pf preparing the project's economic utility and the period of transferring project's capital for available and requirements, and starting the production & marketing process internally and externally.

So, when we start seriously in forming stock market, we should first find the scientific foundation that can prepare the healthy economic study in addition to direct the instituting then adopting the observing principle to avoid the risk factor; some adventurers resort to decline the share's worth to buy then arising to sell and as such. So, company management should consider this subject in its dealing with the stock market one and strengthen itself to protect its shares' circulation by taking these procedures:

1- To form a reserves under the name of the stocks circulating reserve in stock market. 2- To form a special part to observe the circulation position in stock market to handle

each case alone, for example the decline could be resulted from sets unprotect, which weaken goods' quality and cause the appearance of rival ones, or slowness in escorting the global development in production or marketing's quality; furthermore the market may be use new cheapest products due to the present economic weakness that is accompany with weakness of demand on commodities in general.This part's importance appears when we start forming this stock market or even planning for it by some economic projects and foundations that have a lot of contributors ,but do not have any reserves for overcoming possible problems, which may resulted from floating in this market that is subjected to supply and demand policy.

143

Page 144: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

This part also should try hard to know the vibration of shares' worth (up and down) because each factor has its importance in this vibration. So the company financial situation is specified by this center and any moving away of this situation cab be handled according to its danger because the improving in stocks value is a unreal one fallowed by sudden collapse, which the speculators can get benefit from .this center should specify the needed time for interfering in stock market by using reserves for protecting shares' worth form collapsing to avoid the controlling of loaners, which could be a lot of rival companies. there is also another protection can be applied which is connecting market movement with the daily observation for stock market's one and circulating these shares through this center or this special part that can keep a reasonable level for company's profits.

3- The technical cadre: no doubt that choosing the financial and technical cadre for any economic establishment is very important factor especially for those establishments that want to be subjected to continuous evaluation from other through circulating their shares in stock market. This cadre's suitable choice should be accompany with qualified board of director's members and head departments and even the marketing and sales department.

This cadre is parted to so many parts, and any default in one of them may affect the project as a whole. So, the choice process could be through special qualified people who have previous experience in this field , this way is not always available, so we can resort to prepare special cadre from qualified university or institution's graduators by delegating them for specialization abroad . Here, since contributors consider the qualified technical cadre as one of guarantee of project's success, we should try hard to provide those qualified factors that have good international fame and reputation.

Modifying the present adopted rules I have spoken about individual's caring about economy and its reflection upon creating successful economic establishments and companies. Here I should stop at the atmosphere they live in, we as government and people should leave our selfishness and the old theories that do not suit the present economic situation if we want to keep up our requirements. This is what most countries do when they start to modify their economic rules in conformity with the local and international developments, and any delay of treating these developments will increase our failure's rate as a result of the civilized acceleration of other countries.

Therefore, we should form a corporation consists of many economic activities (public and private) to specify what the developmental plans need and compare the economic reality with our great ambitions. It can also unify the wishes and tendency of all human abilities in setting the healthy scientific programs and rules with the opening of special institutions and collages that organize the investments process. So, preparing for healthy productive projects is better than building up some projects according to unhealthy studies then resorting to reform; in other words subjecting all these rules to these studies results because these are the correct rules for investment.

Setting up an upbringing for money market: No doubt that without hastening in constructing a shares market and financial papers is under developing and improving and it is the economical wisdom in itself, furthermore, I see that the factors which we must follow and the help to this arrangement is the upbringing style, in addition, we have to broaden the circle which includes a greater amount of these

144

Page 145: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

establishments with their variety in activities, belonging and measure, and a good example is about the exchange of the shares between the family members is to issue a hand writing or copied papers by one of its members to circulating between the individuals and the other families, moreover, the circulation of pawned shares must be identified by the success of the project, and the value of the share represents the percentage that performed by the project in its success.

Automation Adopting the automation system in the stock market's procedures is very important as a result of extending the dealers' rate in it especially in the countries that begin to privatizing their different activities. The suffering appears as a result of adopting this policy in the countries that marked by in their directed economy; these countries wish to create a stock market with issuing stocks for their different productive activities. therefore, these countries should study its economic reality and exploiting their banks and all economic capabilities that they can get benefit from for creating this stock market, in addition to contact with international ones by Internet to learn the proper treatment with this market. They can also use Internet in observing the local sock market vibration by connecting it with the establishments and companies that float their shares for circulation, and in handling all the problems that may face these circulated shares. Automation can also arise the knowledge and culture of these stock market globally speaking because globalization has become having an important role in people's culture.

Now, one of the most important of globalization's mean is satellite channels that show us daily the latest economic developments such as currencies, gas and oil' price changing and also the financial situation for the biggest companies, which have an important role in London, Paris, Tokyo, new York stock market. Therefore, this examination helps us in taking the required immunities against the negative reflection of these markets and directing at the same time the economy department to continue their connection with international stock markets to typify the real global competition. There are so many economic establishments that are downfallen their financial situation as a result of their neglecting for real competition situation , in addition to the unexpected big competition of other establishment's front , that is what we notice lately in some airlines which cause a big loss for other small companies . So, the most important thing here is caring about the human factor by sending some qualified experts people to the international stock market, or invites some experts in the stock market internet's field in order to train our people for using Internet in this important field.

Using Internet in this field can reveal the secrets of this stock market's treatment, we can compare the financial shares for any company daily or even each hour, this action is very important in our country to arise its economic capabilities and to acquire the required immunity to face the international markets. We can get benefit also from other's experiments to handle the deficit of our economic projects, for example we can find other new markets for marketing our productions that are accumulated by reason of political obstacles or strong competition in special old markets.

The priorities for entering money markets : No doubt, that floating the shares of the economic foundations that depend completely on local raw materials (they have a continuous observation on their productions in international markets) is differ of the industries that depend on imported ones. Here I think there is a strong relation between subjecting to international competition and local industrialization's rate; as

145

Page 146: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

much the local industries depend on imported raw material, as much they became unable to stand against the international competition and consequently unable to enter stock market. However, when we resort to technology, we can achieve a lot of success in competition matter, but the technologic industries cannot protect it self from the scientific competition for long time , take the Japanese's cars and Swiss' watches that are on the top for long time till some countries have become rival them in those fields. Take MICROSOFT Company that its shares make a lot of profit lately more than any other one because of mental and intellectual production, which cannot be rivaled easily as the muscles or handcraft production; This company's owner is thinking seriously to divide his company into two parts after its profit has reached to milliard of dollars . So, we should support and develop the services' projects in general since our country has perfect geographic position and security atmosphere as well.

Here, I want to confirm on the integral side of touristy services' expenses that should be provide for tourists, we should consider the hotels' cost, plane's tickets and transportation's cost as well to be in harmony with our neighbor countries. This process needs an elaborated study for any touristy trip depending on scientific researches, informatics and our embassies abroad; we can depend also on our communities, which are spread out in all worlds' countries, by granting an encouraging reward for any Syrian success in attracting any tourist to Syria. I think exploiting those people; most are students, in presenting these services for their country is better than leaving them servicing the countries they exist in. We can build up scientific center care about teaching students abroad with using their qualifications in providing the economic and scientific advantages for their country, as an example: in one of the Syrian TV's symposium in which many doctors participate in; they received a call from London from one Syrian doctor who extends his research's field in curing artery. What he said about this doctor can be applied on other Syrian people who are extended all over the world by creating there big touristy companies to encourage foreign investors for investing their money in Syrian services' companies. this way assure for us a hands market in addition to stock market can provide some protection from unemployment for coming back youths who can not find suitable job can accompany with their wishes and tendencies . Here, since we have many experienced hands abroad, we can import them instead of foreign ones in order to train that big numbers of our unemployment hands.

The nationality of the financial markets: The invitation to find a joint Arabic financial market, it has an importance like the establishing of the joint Arabic market, because we can not rely on a cooperative Arabic market if there is no availability in each Arabic market as a market for the financial securities. Every Arabic citizen must cleanse himself from the bad projects in order to make good investments that have strong financial shares which can be contributed in the Arabic world, and the start of a regional personal Reformation is a must to creating a strong Arabic financial market is the first step for strengthening the Arabic economy totally, this former suffers from the weak economy, each Arabic country have to know that the call for the Arabic economical nationality in its various faces is a call to supporting the Arabic economy, and this citizen must know that the directing towards the public Arabic interest is a less suffering if every Arabic nation has subdued to the influence of the international financial markets as a result of the globalization that the owners of these markets applies as an execution to their economical interests in the aria. So, we have to call for the Arabic globalization that is the best remedy from the influence with the international globalization

146

Page 147: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Which each Arabic country will subdue to it sooner or later, and here we can find the following relation:

The regional economical benefit – the national economical benefit - The regional economical benefit – The economical globalization confrontation.And this circle is the one which protects the national and regional economy from the effects of the bad globalization.

The dominant companies:The progress of the economical correction for preparing to inter the financial market; we have to take into our consideration the following matter: that is to secure a strong economical situation which has the ability to apprehend the unexpected economical conditions and the resulted from purchasing of the shares of the other economical establishments by some economical institution which suffer from a decline in the value of its shares in the financial markets and it is the followed rule in the world at this time. One of the English automobiles factories has purchased a factory of the Korean cars because of the deterioration of the financial situation to this latter, and the only factor that push it to do that work is the prevention of the Korean factory to compete with it consequently, the English factory gets rid of one of its strong rivals in the world especially that Korea has become an owner of big and numerous factories of cars, and the latter causes a danger on the producers of cars industry in the world.

So, if this matter is common in the world, why not we consider this aspect on the level of the Arabic world where the powerful supports the weak to guarantee the strength of the Arabic economy towards the international competitions of the available integrative industries of the Arabic homeland? In addition, it can be followed other alternative remedies that agree with the reality of the Arabic economy in a condition that the recovery is useless, but the purpose must be one, which is the protection of the economical establishments from the decline of their shares.

The information side of this stock market Since information has become taking an important role in people's life on their different financial and cultural level, we should focus well on supporting the circulation of the good prepared companies and asking that under-level ones to stop deceiving people that aim to invest their money in successful projects. So, there should be a good and strong relation between advertisements, reform and people confidence in this reform. Here, I want to assure that advertisement's veiling of the losing economic companies and foundation will encourage them to change their tendency and try hard to make it a successful one. This process forms a deterring mean against the economic dangers, which its holders aim only for big fame and collecting money on the plea of expecting not this failure of their projects that are propagated in mass media so, I call all the media institutions to avoid any information activity for economic projects that have been established upon failure or unreal economic study.

I have spoken about all the encouraging sides of making stock market, which is one of economic reform's mean; meanwhile I mentioned the importance of well economic work for each project that wants to keep an acceptable price for its shares in this stock market. I said also that each Arabic country has special economic conditions, and it is better if we coexist in integral economy, in which the shares of each project can circulate in Arabian stock markets that are spread out on Arabic lands, these lands that are rich in history and wealth. Therefore,

I hope I can reach the wanted point to make all the related economic authorities combine for making successful Arabian stock markets.

5- Credit cards: The essential idea of creation of the credit cards is the facilitation of the process of buying and selling where it replaces currency particularly in the purchases that have big amounts. One of its wrongs is arousing the desire for purchase; this means raising the rates of consumption and it is a psychological situation that the purchaser feels it; because when he practices the buying process he does not feel the size of the currency. In spite of the result in the two cases is one, which is paying the value of his purchasing from his own income and the sole difference is the buying against the payment with the credit card is a delayed purchase for a short period is the separator between the buying process and the time that Occurs the collection of the value of the credit card transcript by the intermediary bank in the establish that issued by it the credit card which execute the value of the purchasing according to this card, usually , the user of the goods is charged with a percentage ranges between 2 – 5 % from the value of purchasing amount as collection expanses.

This competition, of course has started between the establishments that issue this card by giving a part of it to the sellers to propagate the use of its cards , as some of it has given the manual machines or the computer set that are used for setting up the connection for the payable sum , and it is a page of a small book consisted of several colored pages and we can do that by passing the surface of the machine on the first page to this book in addition , it can be carried out a drawing in a lottery on the numbers of the entrance cards and returning a part of the purchasing sum if the buyer takes out the goods outside the area that he used in it the credit card to secure his needs from it .

The required guarantees of this credit card holderThese cards have so many sorts and types according to sum's volume that can its holder get benefit from, some of them are connected with the approval of area or city's agent moreover its holder is obliged to sign it on back to compare his signature with the special notification, which is consists of many color pages that deliver to its holder after mentioning the name and address of the selling establishment. I think this card should have its holder's photo or his ID's number to avoid any cheating of using this card by any another person, so there are three guarantees: the photo, ID number or this card's agent in the area that this card comes out of. Nowadays there is a computer linkage within the consumption's sets, so the basic center can inform all the related area in case of losing any card.

These are the using guarantee, but what are the guarantees they ask the beneficiary about? It should be a bank account, presenting commercial bail of any merchant deals with that bank, or presenting in kind things just like a mortgaging. in most cases bank refuse any application of getting this card dose not have one of these guarantees, this action is to avoid any possible risk can produce lack in the confidence of dealing with these credit cards , and make the merchants give up the using of these civilized way ( credit cards) as a mean for paying their goods' price.

148

Page 149: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Facilitating the dealing with this card Since there is a benefit in using the credit card, we should facilitate it use to perform its wanted purpose. We can adopt the informatics system by connecting all banks with one computer net in order to allow this card's holder to circulate its account in any bank he wishes. Furthermore, we can depend on special shop' owners to issue and sell these cards for specific commission, they can for commission also offer some money for these cards' holder till these holders can circulate their accounts in electronic machines. This action widens of spreading out the dealing in local currency in our different country's governorates and protects the citizen of the dangers he may face for personal transport of bank currency.

Here, the person who has a lot of money in hands can deposit this money as deposing account for short or long term because he knows that he can circulate this money in anywhere and in anytime. So, credit cards work for arising the savings' rates, which encourage the internal investment especially in services sector's projects. These projects form the helping hand for other economic projects because when we prepare well touristy areas , we are attracting a lot of investors; preparing also studied industrial areas according to the export and consumption needs will make industrialists choose their favorite places in easy and facility way.

Some people who have priceless minerals resort for using bank as a saving mean after they were hidden them in their houses. So, we still hope tom develop the banking actions to escort the economic reform's process , which we aim to apply, by connecting its activity with the projects that have proved their positive utility according to international competition. Here, we notice that the credit cards can replace the personal money boxes and hidden wardrobes also increase the currency's importance in economic matters. They are helping in using the local currency in paying goods' cost, which are bought by foreigners that used to pay in foreign currency. So, I will speak later about the importance of foreigners' using of this credit card after we spoke here about its role in globalization, which big industrial countries call for.

Using national credit card by foreigners If we want to make anything internationally successful, we should make it locally successful, and of course, the economic power supports this idea but how we can apply it to be in use by foreigners for example? We know that export has many special characteristics , which is applied nowadays on foreigner who buy his needs in some European countries, he can get back about 12- 15 % of payments if he proves for the custom department that these goods have been taken out outside the country in which he buys from. Now since this specialty is adopted not nowadays in our country, we can resort to apply it on using the credit card by granting some discount for the foreigner who uses our local credit card in our internal market. This process not only guarantees the circulating of local currency in internal market, but also encourages the export of these locally exposed goods. In other words this will circulate local capitals, control unemployment, and get ride of stagnation because the psychological state for the credit card's user is better than the one who will pay in cash.

Some people may ask here, what are the guarantees of these credit cards? We can say that we should adopt the same adopted way in the foundations that issues AMERICAN EXPRESS, VISA or DINERS CLUB and marketing them through our embassies, commercial attaché or tourism offices for special sums. Each sort of these credit cards will be selling in special prices according to its characteristics with granting its users special interest for their paid money. We can also invest this collected money in some projects to distribute

149

Page 150: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

their profits on this card's users; here the benefit that its holder can get is similar to the benefit of the bank that issues this credit card.

Finally, some people may ask, can our local credit card rival the other international ones? I can say, yes if it is supported by users' confidence

Credit card nationalismSince Arabian people are looking for the common economic cooperation, they should try to union the Arabian currency as the European countries do although they do not have the same common characteristics as Arabs have. We can for now ratify some agreements to encourage the use of Arabian currency; we can for example use the Syrian credit card to buy some materials in Dubai or Riyadh and vice versa. This way, which allows for the Arabian money to move easily within Arabian lands and invested in theses lands as well, is better than using international previous credit cards that have different types and issued authorities.

I want here to assure that issuing these Arabian cards not only strengthen the Arabian currency, but also strengthen the use of our Arabian cards in Europe because of their wide spreading; take the powerful of American currency as a result of its spreading on biggest patch in this world. Here, businessmen should take over the process of providing this industry through their unions and organizations because they are the party who use these cards and know their systems and rules. So, the cooperation between those businessmen and public sector in this field will grant us good results because the mutual assistance of science and knowledge of the private sector with the economic utility study by governmental research center will grant the needed confidence for people to invest their money in correctly studied projects. However, we should sift the two sector wishes in this field because the public sector aims to hire working hands and many of careless businessmen build up a lot of unstudied projects, which damage the national economy and disappoint the investors who were deceived of the baggy large publicity of these losing projects.

Therefore, the studied and scientific cooperation between two sectors is the perfect cure for the bars that may happen in case of each part is working alone in this investment field. For that reason, I call the two sectors to establish special foundations can issue the credit cards and guarantee their circulation in such country where the banking action has not yet able to handle this mission.

The trainingNo doubt that the human factor is the basis in any commercial or industrial project, so we should take this in our consideration when we want to make the circulating of credit card fulfilled correctly. This process is not easy one since each person has his own traditions, habits, and financial capabilities; in addition to that the treatment with it could be within people speak different languages. Therefore, this project's liable should train the human factor from the beginning by opening small institution can train them all the needed principles in this field. Those trained people should already have special culture to be the core for training good factors since the number of needed trained people is changing one.

So, we could care about teaching them the core of all related works through getting help from special foreign experts who can grant us some advices for correcting what we had done and completing the existed shortage. we can also make some training courses for acquiring and completing the missed experiences from the forerunner companies in this field, so why we

150

Page 151: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

create some common companies between private sector and the famous international foundations in this field? This cooperation discuss the correct starting point for the possibility of providing local or international markets for these companies issued credit cards. I repeat again that the private sector is very neglectful relating this matter since it has not offer any positive project for the executive power especially that this cooperation can guarantee pumping more foreign money to our country.

Using credit card for tourism Sine Mediterranean area has a special climate in all seasons; it is attracting about 35 % of international tourism. So, we should try hard to care more about this matter by offering some facilities for attracting tourists from all over the world and especially the rich countries. Here, using the Syrian or Arabian credit cards is an invitation card for any foreign to visit our area especially that Damascus is considered one of the oldest capitals in the world. We can for example issuing credit cards in a way each one is holding a picture for one antique area as Palmyra, Aleppo castle or old Damascus , in addition to grant them some advantages as lowering in air or land transportation of Syrian companies and some discount on different tourist's purchasing . Consider of the money that we can get if the international financing foundations adopt the issuing of these credit cards, which help indirectly in recognizing on our antique tourism.

These credit cards can make the tourism market as continuous one not specific for limited time in which we activate the touristy work; the best example here is the last touristy festival in Dubai, which has not achieved the wanted purpose due to its time's unsuitability for many tourists. Here, the Syrian government has resort for specifying the old Damascus exhibition land for arranging special fairs in specific times, but we should form a special corporation for this type of fairs can be in harmony with our developmental plans and economic reform. These fairs have an economic importance because they present big service in encouraging indirect export, which is the selling process between seller and buyer that is never succeed without tourism succeeded , here since our market abilities are weak , we should prepare the suitable atmosphere that can attract the customer to the manufacturing place.

So, credit card can provide for our country the tourists who usually buy our local products, it also improve product's quality since the credit card's marketing is the contact mean between seller and buyer and consequently the helping factor in revealing international market's requirements . Here, factories should contain special part for knowing customer's opinions through marketing men since they are the responsible of preparing the reports that show customers wishes and opinions of the products they take. Here, we can issuing s credit cards for the factory or the part that manage these cards' operating to know the marketing problem as a results of the growth work's numbers although the characteristics they offer as special price , easy in paying and product's guarantee as well.

Information and credit card No doubt, that issuing credit cards in a country like ours is not easy matter since each person is doubting of their social and economic benefits. We cannot blame him if we consider his limited income which is between" 100-150" $ monthly. Here, since the chamber of commerce's members are the real costumers of this process, we can depend on them for issuing special credit cards for limited income people. These credit cards is stronger than checks since they guarantee for the creditor his debt within the period of using and getting that debt's sum , in addition to that they do not require any complicated or expensive

151

Page 152: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

procedures. Here, I am not saying that we should replace checks by credit cards, but this card is considered the helping and important factor in some business that use the checks as a guarantee mean.

So, information has an important role in recognizing these credit cards' functions and benefits either by seen, heard and readable means that show the facility of transferring money especially in the small financial business of the limited income people. Information nowadays has become the effective partner for industrialists and merchants who are today specify in their annual expenses a definite sum for different types and sort of propaganda. This propaganda's expenses should include issuing credit cards for the foundation that adopt them as propaganda for their commercial activities. They can for example use a shining notice board that says that there will be a lottery on the credit cards' numbers that are circulated for special commodity; here the announcer can hit two targets :

1- a propaganda of his commodity, 2- attracting customers for buying this commodity wishing for the prize.

So, we can arrange lottery on credit cards for advantages of any private or public authority to encourage the circulation of these credit cards, they can also used in offering any person who has some economic support a special credit card allow him of getting special prices for his purchases in order to improve his living standard. Now, encouraging the dealing of these credit cards can take many ways and means that accompanied with circulated atmosphere. Therefore, different mass mediaم should encourage and help the circulating of these credit cards because they are making the hidden liquidity used for successful economic purposes.

The relation between income and credit card's competence We can liken credit cards to lottery papers since they have different benefits and characteristics. So, we can issue different credit cards according to any person's income, businessman for example can choose the previous golden one. here we can connect the sums that are spend in using credit card with different income's volumes because each one is just a special guarantee according to the salaries and compensation the employees has . This is what it used to be in our country when student or his father save some money to buy a card that is used in specific transportation for specific time in order to have special price comparing with the cash paying for the same times. Therefore, using credit card is helping the directing process by specifying the required sums in the budget of monthly or yearly expenses according to the expected salaries; this process will provide the needed excess for using it as reserves for covering the emergency cases.

So, using credit cards can replace the currency circulation because paying or getting money will be through bank accounts, the payer can ask the seller about his account number that he would like to transfer money to. This process protect currency from consumption's haste, which is in most cases costing government a lot of money, and also arise the public savings' volume as a result of plenty using of many people. There is finally another advantaging of using them on the public level; they are protecting the circulated currency from stealing or forgery operation.

The way of preparing and making credit cards

152

Page 153: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

We should possess the credit cards making's process locally as any other economic production that is using the maximum rate of local materials. The economical industrial work through these credit cards is providing new opportunities and canceling other shabby banking ones for their incompetence of present banking reform. We can overcome this difficulty by the cooperating with international companies in order to apply the adopted technologies in this field; this cooperation may contain the institution of common companies to get used of their marketing and industrialization experiences by entering the required materials and equipments depending on investment law.

Any way we should start to ask ourselves: how should we make this civilized project? I think the private sector can execute it and can find the stuffiest money if it make a serious economic study according to the healthy economic factor that I adopted in international companies. This study will make credit cards for all investors as one of the healthy and guaranteed mean for their capitals. We can hurry in announcing for international bids for getting machines (the raw materials of this work) if its manufacture's needs some time, but manufacturing them locally seems better since the number of people who wish to use them are not already known. It is a daily developing process since there are a lot of people who wish to have these credit cards; other ones are on the contrary, the company wishes to cancel their participation.

Public relation and financial solvencies Since issuing these credit cards is a banking act, we should train the members that will promote for this idea to estimate the financial solvency, and know the agents' wishes and opinions of these cards. Here, since the public relation department is the one that contribute effectively in preparing the economic utility, its members should be chosen carefully by arranging them some special course abroad in the forerunner companies in this field. so, they can study the possibility of executing this project according to the users' satisfaction in order to know the minimum economic limit that project can start with; they can compare reality with what is adopted in other countries by using the informatics system, which ease their mission regarding numbers and schedules. They can finally reach to the important decision of starting this project or not because using these cards is not less important than opening new banks, it is a special bank act and its treatment's dangerous is subjected to the presented guaranties volume from the dealers of them.

The currency circulation volume can reach to big number by issuing special sorts that are used by merchants, industrialists and businessmen to provide their expensive needs through these golden cards. Here, the marketing department is the same public relation one because any bank can not know the solvency of this card's user without good relation with him, so finding a suitable atmosphere with costumer need special people can value these public relation importance’s and the marketing department is the best one for providing this atmosphere.

This marketing department should subject periodically to board of director supervision to make sure of their presented information to avoid any aligned decisions. Here, the financial penalties should be applied on each incorrect report's arranger, which may cause big loss to bank as a result of the card holder's lack of commitment for paying the paid money. The correct good report's arranger also should be granted some bonus and rewards because the aim of these cards is not the big number of customers as the guaranteed number of them.

153

Page 154: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Consumption and credit cards Some people may claim that there is a contradiction between consumption and credit cards since issuing these cards is encouraging consumption rate as a result of postponed paying for cards' purchases. However, this claim is acceptable if we grant these cards for their users without any sufficient guarantee because this will encourage consumption and damage the credit card's project. According to the economic principle that consider each economic reform has its positive and negative effects, we should prepare a sufficient study in order to have a successful results in applying this project, which is extremely connected with modernizing the Syrian banking work since economic rings are complete each others. So, we should study the surrounding economic effects and modify them to avoid any possible failure, which is resulted from providing not the suitable economic atmosphere. So, adopting the exchanging currency by needs or currencies by currencies through using these cards is civilized manner because they allow their holder to get use of these cards' characteristics of using previous savings. This is a good lesson for people who will depend the saving policy in getting credit card , which have the characteristics we said before ; those people will deposit their savings in bank's account could be called the credit card's account till they reach to the deposing volume limit , which enable them of getting this credit card.

Here, we notice that this card's services and characteristics are much more than its disadvantages, so we must encourage its advantages for national economy's supporting.

The stimulators for using the cards: We can say that these stimulators are not so necessary in the great industrial countries because of the economical awareness that is available and the accepted income that the individual can live by them in a appropriate way , but this matter differs completely in the countries that lead an economical reform where the instruments of the processed civilization can be used in these great industrial countries ; but after the modification of its performance on the one hand , and the utilization of it in improving the economical path ; thus , one of the useful stimulators for our economy and for the economical civilized application to these cards.

Here, we can start with knowledge as well as the learning of what is done in the civilized countries in this field ; so we work on removing these obstacles gradually by changing the laws and systems that confine its work , and the best thing you can do is attaching its issuance with the material motives concerning some cases that we undertake by granting the bonuses for the others where we see in the great industrial countries which give the thinker , the scientist and the creative laborer a premium that can be performed via the credit cards which allow him in purchasing some kinds of commodities or all of them and for a determined or opened period ,by that , we encourage as well as activate the dealing with the credit cards and there are many instances that can be applied on the using the credit cards as an economical stimulator .

We have explained the working ability with the credit cards including the sufficiency or a summery of this adequacy regarding some researchers in the economical matters or the economical reform.

6- The correction of the Islamic bank performance:

154

Page 155: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

No doubt that the Islamic bank for improvement is one of those activated establishments or it is supposed to be like that; and which can be considered one of the manifestations of the horizons of corporation that are available before the Islamic countries, and the bank as a supported economical establishment by several countries which connect between them a national link, it is an achievement in the full sense of the word. In other words, it becomes a fact that overreach the calls for establishing it; in contrast with these organizations that still of no effect. whoever , there is a kind of a problem in the performance of this bank and the achievements that execute as the aids which are represented by lending that it grants in a way or another . In this compact study; there is a kind of defects on the bank mechanism, the defects that considered in one of its sides problems or obstacles.

A fault in the leading mechanism:It is widely known in the world of the banks; that the bank does not grant a loan unless it has the sufficient guarantees that authorizes to regaining the borrowed money on time in the lending conditions , but the problem that constitutes a confinement in the bank performance as well as the system of its loan , this means that it does not deal with the private sector in a proper way , in other words , it takes an exceptional stance from it because of demanding guarantees that can not be carried out or obtained; and it is the guarantee of the debtor government for the loaner. The matter which happens is that: the partner loaner government that is participated practically in this bank the latter prefers that the public sector profits from the loans that the bank considers an important source for financing.

In addition to that , the routine problem seems that can not be forgotten and it forms one of the restrictions on the bank job , as it is known that the shortage of the distance and the littleness of connecting link between the debtor as well as the loaner is considered a matter that has an importance in speeding the resolution concerning the validity of the offered guarantee , whenever the distance and the number of the circles have decreased , the lender knows the borrower abilities simply … this on one hand , on the other hand , it is hard to find a chaste person that can be a neutral judgment that can decide the validity of the loan use in the public or private sector especially when this person does not depend upon the informational system , so he has to go back to it to decide the correctness of the borrower claim concerning his need for this loan , besides , is the need fulfillment connected to his interest or the advantage of the Islamic national economy ?

Safety measures we cannot mange withoutIt seems that the obstacles of bank leading operation are justified somewhat, these cautions are considered one of the required proviso for decreasing the leading risk. I think we should here discuss some major points that decrease scientifically the possible risks of these Islamic bank operations. The first part is related to the debtor himself, I said before that the direct connection between him and bank will facilitate this operation since bank will make sure of the competence the presented guarantee, the second one is related to the atmosphere of the authority that would like to take up a loan. we cannot acknowledge this atmosphere without special bank center for studying and research and supplied with technical equipment and cadre to study each Islamic country economy that is contributing in bank capital, this action is for saving the debtor country economy and providing the wanted coherence within Islamic countries economies; this center should also connect the decision of donation loan with the volume of advantages the debtor can offer for Islamic world. This of course needs the forming of neutral authority can undertake this mission , which may face a lot of obstacles since each country adopted rules may disagree with the conditions that must be available for the success of any project matter the Islamic World as a whole.

155

Page 156: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Supporting investments from comprehensiveI slamic principle

Since we are taking about bank's performance, the box should adopt very essential step that is restudying the present reality for each Islamic country's economy, and then handling its problems with Islamic and not Islamic world. this step should be fallowed by studying the economic coherence within Islamic world countries, and collecting the Islamic experiences that are presently spread in different world's areas; this process could be achieved by special centers can feed the Islamic world in different required technical experiences, these important experiences can change this Islamic world from a consumer for imported technologies to just a producer for them.

I think that bank should adopt special investment according to wealth's distribution and their international value, so their geographic position and the stored ones should be considered before setting the bank investment's strategy in the Islamic world. The bank can, for example, direct its investment to disinvested wealth yet in any Islamic country if the global economic situation of this type can provide benefit for all Islamic worlds; here knowing well the country that has this wealth and its distribution has a big important role in acceleration the investment operations.

Widening the bank's activity to depend on partnership

principle instead of loansWe should establish new branches for banks in different Islamic world areas regardless of each country's economic system, these branches facilitate the daily connection and treatment between Islamic countries and people and banks. There should be also special consults or agents in each country supplied with modern communication (Internet) to exchange information in fast way, this way provide taking the right loan decision especially with today's fast economic exchanges and modifications. So, bank is obliged to subject some projects to direct supervision to keep its money, which are the Islamic countries' money.

Regarding loans matter, I suggest to adopt the partnership principle because it provides for the financer partner the continuous and daily supervision on this invested money. The bank should, however, subject this partnership to elaborated study for all its economic standards and aspects; it should study the insurance of getting back the invested money and knowing his partner's commercial and financial personality in addition to all important matters in this partnership's subject.

The challenges confrontation: Last but not least , I would like to say : that the danger which threatens the Islamic World in a case of taking place the economical globalization , this danger is arriving from the passive economical consequences that suffers from them at the present time for being subservient completely to the great industrial countries without having a subjective interest in that matter , taking into consideration that the mentioned above is still making every effort for spreading the competition between the Islamic world countries for supporting its exports to it.

156

Page 157: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Further, the problem is that these Islamic countries do not care for this problem, therefore, the Islamic Bank must think of rearranging the Islamic World Economies without delay before lunching to extend many investments in the projects of each country privately.

In facing the exterior dangers , I see that we have to find a unified currency like the Islamic dinaer as an example for dealing between the Islamic world countries and between the foreign world is in itself an important as well as a active matter for getting out the Islamic world from the domination of the great industrial countries currencies , so , in this case the bank must grant the loans and receive the debts payment and buying as well as selling the goods in addition to activating its currencies in the Islamic dinaer, besides , I has to utilize the huge Islamic world economies as an alternate for this integrated currency , in stead of the possession of the foreign banks on them .

7- The tax: It is a word that means the adherence to or the compulsion on acting something in favor of a certain authority, however, this word is not likable generally speaking in popular terms, frequently , someone complains for demanding from another one with something unfair so the other will respond to him , why should give you this thing ? this tax being executed via the executive authority which has extended validities for collecting the taxes from whom they must pay even if it be by prohibition and selling the charge with the public sale for collection , the limits of these validities may reach to arrest the charged with tax in order to collect the tax amount from him in addition to another feature that the collection process has , which is to grant the characteristic of the privileged debt this means that the latter is taken from the charged assets and before paying any commitment from the payable ones for the others .

Taxes' types Taxes have many different unlimited types and sorts, they are increased when the executive power incapable of covering their present revenues without any thinking of imposing new ones. How bad when the executive power applies the rebalancing policy between expenses and revenues, this policy make individual feels of frustration as a result of improving not his living standard. I hope from authority to give up this policy that could be liken to ragged clothes, which has become completely patched cloth; so we should not increase tax rates ,but find useful productive projects or handling waste in order to use the resulted funds in covering the new expenses . however, I afraid that covering these expenses will increase the refraining of paying taxes and consequently cause a financial deficit as a result of adopting the shortest road in collecting much money from taxpayers and all people pockets using different name ( welfare or cleanness tax ……)

The state collects tax from each society's individual under the pretense that presenting services for all people ; so since the state undertakes big economic missions were originally from public sector's missions, it should hire a lot of hands in a way present the financial profits that can cover those workers wages and also for importing production's requirements . the big mistake here that the state resort to taxes to cover the deficit in the secondary budget of worker's wages , while it can study the economic utility for presented new projects either by public sector or by private one , the possible revenues can cover this deficit between wages and their returns by restudy the present project and redistribute hands.

157

Page 158: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

We should nor forget to arrange between cures and long or short term developmental plans in order to achieve different goals such as controlling unemployment and increasing income's rate with keeping the tax rate under control .I think we should not impose any tax to increase little income's rate, while the gradual raising for the imposed taxes can save on survey the costs of collecting taxes from those people. I suggest this solution as a start for handling the problem because we do not want this class to live in lowest level, it is the productive class, and we do not want also to be burden on survey in case of increasing salaries because increasing income is accompanied by the increasing in consumption and led to increase prices.

The other taxes that are imposed on net profit should not modified without their owner's consultation since they are the group that is using their experiences in establishing economic activities and powers that are affected by imposing high taxes . I want here to mention the reverse relation between arising tax's rate and economy's collapse because working in investing and export is better than freezing taxes in state survey, this freezing could cause some stagnancy in production and increasing the unemployment rate and consequently increasing not hands salaries. So, it is so harmful thing to adopt the oscillation policy in imposing the tax rate, we sometime impose it on economic activity and modify it later, this cause alloy of negative effects on economy as imposing taxes on different production's stages and the importing the required raw materials, and then modify them by freeing the exports from taxes, in short there is not any clear and long-range tax policy.

We should release our economic decisions quickly when we consider that there are some conditions we can get benefit from, so we find that custom protection can damage export and accumulate production and consequently the survey will loss the profit tax on this economic establishment and foundation, in addition to the export and raw material's customs fees and the expenses of paying unemployed workers as a result of this economic problem. The executive power here should adopt the daily supervision's policy for international market's move through the research center that is established for this purpose due to the firm connection between imposing taxes' policy and marketing, so we should always watch the indicator of this center and work hard in taking the right economic decision by canceling all the imposed taxes and fees on any commodity , which is facing a continuous international competition in order to get the needful food for its remaining in this life.

We hope from state to restudy the imposed rates to modify them with the economic interests, it should adopt the tax's balance and put the present tax rate in one scale and the achieved results in the other scale, then study the changes of these results through increasing or decreasing these rates till we reach to lowest rate and plenty of benefits. This process can be performed on each work that is complaining of the imposed tax till we reach to fair rate coupled with its economic utility on the basis of its achieving to national economy's advantage and its ability to face the international competitive situation.

So, we should study this imposed tax on each part of any economic work and consider its effect on the other ones , take for example disappearing of real agents for foreign companies' contraction with public sector , this work consists of many parts starting from bid's announcing till delivering goods . we should handle all these parts to reach an bid's integral work neglecting the damaging of the adopted long routine in bid's procedures, especially what is related to the remaining of bid bond for a year and arising the exposed material for bid about 10% in addition to the complicated operation of delivery, storing and the required last guarantee to check the goods' devoid of any failure. The Finance Ministry men neglect all

these and start to base a lot of conceptions and illusions of the tax's money they can collect from that agent, but how lovely considering these rates is the door that we can enter from to handle our economic problems.

Modifying tax's rate should be accompany with modernizing and developing the subjected works for this modification , for example project starts in calculating the numbers that it can get from imposing tax without taking in consideration what is adopted in other countries that have a complete duty free. They impose in each foreign company to cooperate with each person in this country not for tax ,but to improve his living standard by hiring more hands in addition to activate the services activities and markets motion . The state will get benefit of imposing taxes on resulted profits of these companies' commission, I wonder here since we are activating public sector: why we have not touch on the right and useful side of these commissions? we only say that those helpers are just agents or brokers want to put to flight their commissions to outside our country , while I think they are practicing a noble career especially that the foreign companies do not know our rules and systems. There are some temporary interfere for some technical experts who are originally Syrian people have different nationalities , but how lovely if the legislator tries to facilitate this collecting taxes' process by making it a fixed rate paid by the exhibitor company that depend on special qualified consulting body with freeing this Syrian body of all the financial chasing. Here, the great competition within these companies has made them pay less than usual for their consultants who have become try to find a suitable job abroad to get ride of ministry of finance's nightmare.

This will make us lose some economic operation's financing inside our lands, so I want from officials to think not of increasing taxes from people pocket money because this money will be frozen in the state survey without any kind of refresh. so, we should strengthen consumption that support production in such countries suffer from export's weakness, the best example is the consumption's power in the United State of America that its people get used to American goods. For that reason, most foreign factories that want to enter the American markets face selfish protection of American people, these factories try to rival the American goods as the case of the Chinese and Japanese goods that invade American markets as a result of their quality and price; the best proof here is that trade balance between China and America is always for china advantage.

The tax's psychological partitionNo doubt that there is a mutual alienation between taxpayer and tax imposer as a result of unavailability of economic confidence between person and authority, this person consider that state has no right in taking anything because it dose not guarantee any good future for his children. So, person feels that what the executive power collect of taxes dose not equal what it presents of services, the services that he must perform part of them in his limited income; even businessman also has become facing an economic stagnancy due to these taxes.In such atmosphere where the present psychological partition is increased we can not impose more taxes, so executive power should restudy the present economic situation and try to find new productive projects be applying the direction policy. It should also try to increase individual's income and present good services instead of imposing additional taxes.

When man feels of the governmental exerted efforts in improve his living standard, he will cooperate with it in peaceful and quiet soul; it should help and increase people's income

because the economic activity direction is growing sometimes and shrinking in others, but the tax rate is always neglecting this dropping.

The relation between collecting tax and economic situation Executive power is making a terrible mistake when it impose new taxes without taking in consideration the economic activity or situation, it should study well the tax' situation with different economic authorities . Since the goal of imposing taxes is using them in useful project, we should make a simple comparison between these new projects' benefit and the benefit with imposing this tax.

Here, the state should directing the tax's sums by connecting expenses with the presented services it can offer , this voluntary mean is completely different of the coercive one that state could resort to prevent any commercial activity's owner of import's process . So, since the executive power seeks to provide the competition factor for consumer, it should consider the economic background to get use of the present capabilities; this is better than increasing tax's rate or imposing new ones that can limit the economic activities.

The relation between taxes' rate and the collected money's volumeThe state may think that the only source for covering its expenses in collecting taxes forgetting its negative effects of arising prices ,weaken incomes, and increasing Unemployment. In the opposite case there will be an economic activity and good consumption as a result of increasing these tax rates in reasonable and considered rates, these reasonable rates could be 30% of net profits with considering the expenses principle, which is reflecting economic activity and helping the executive power in collecting taxes.

I want here to confirm the strong relation between directing the governmental expenses and taxpayer's satisfaction since this tax is a national duty help in making these rates accompany with income ones. So, reevaluating the public expenditures is very essential in case of any deficit especially in wage and salary rates, this is of course more important than imposing new taxes or increasing the present rates. The resulted revenues of tax volume's growth should not be used in covering deficit, but they should be used in presenting new services led to useful productive economic operations.

Creating research center Since the financial matters are very essential and sensitive ones, we should subjects their works to a special research scientific center can study the imposed taxes rates on different vocations, especially when we consider the weak income's rates that the employees have. I want here to draw your attention to believe our television serials that show that the employees' salary is insufficient even if he had the cheapest foods, so he has to find another job can contribute in providing well life standard.

The employee's performance will definitely go back since he is always thinking of his problems (90 % financial ones) and with the different services that he can not get without

160

Page 161: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

paying a lot of money; here, appears the strong relation between employee's income and his work performance.

So, this research center can study the present economic problems in order to arise income's standard and consequently the consumption ones by focusing not only on the present work, but also collecting taxes from increasing these works. this center can also react with the global information and systems to improve our tax system, which should care more about the suitable treatment he has to adopt with people; this system should convince people of the principle of collecting taxes to provide the wanted public services and also to control waste by making the collected sums equal the spend ones on useful and needful services.

Now, increasing taxes should be always for improving the service situation because the tax impotence is an indicator of the weakness of economy in general. Here, I call all economists to restudy this situation and slowness in taking any fast decision about the tax matter, this matter is connected with different forms of expenses and revenues and with the whole economic and social activities. So, this center should try to equal between the public revenues and expenditures in agreement with all related authorities that each one has a special expenses and some of them can cover these expenses by its revenues after considering these services from the project's total profit. I mean by these services ,the services that pubic sector should provide but he can offer upon private one to provide these services and consider the spend sums from the net profit, all these action are to encourage the private sector in building some schools , mosques and hospitals ...

we can consider these sums as part of the imposed tax that private sector has to pay especially that this sector does them in faster and more perfect way. Here, we can see that individual has replaced the state in executing these services by his special fast way , while the state take long time in this matter because it has to collect taxes and spend them according to each related ring . Here, since the aim of imposing taxes is to provide for individuals the wanted projects and services, we can replace these taxes by setting up new projects and fulfilling people requirements by these projects' revenues.

So, we should always get benefit of our mistakes and directing our acquirements be preparing new developmental plans depending on old ones. These plans aim to improve income's rate by encouraging high income people to invest their money in projects led to increase the weak income's one.

Finally, when the private sector, in my opinion, has the practical and scientific help , it is better than public one that collecting money to keep them far away from any new investment as a result of routine and many obstacles that hinder taking any new and fast decisions .

Arabian taxes Imposing taxes in some Arabian countries is forming an economic burden upon them since it prevents them for the mutual capital goods and forces them to import their goods from very far ones like China and Malaysia. the big industrial countries handle this problem by giving the importer back about 12% - 20% at their borderline , these different form of facilitate encourage the process of exporting goods even if these goods are originally imported one because the balance between these two process is sufficient to increase the foreign currencies.So, opening the Arabian borderline with freeing the mutual goods from taxes will make the Arab world a big economic power, but after preparing a one marketing policy for their goods in outside world ; this policy protect Arabic countries from the possible inner competition. So, we should form an Arabian economic office can restudy the common Arabian market

161

Page 162: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

principle and activate its economic activities with different world countries. this office should also distributing well our productive situation by placing each vocation in its suitable place, in addition to study the economic unity with one currency and Arabian inductive bank can provide loans for different economic activities. This way will of course support economy and help us to form one Arabic unity can defend itself against all the world big consumption fronts.

The tax's consideration When we remove the psychological partition between tax imposer and payer, we can consider collecting tax as cooperative assembly that collect money to achieve a common job can bring benefit for all assembly's members. Here, we should make individual feels that state is the board of directors of that assembly that each member tries his best for contributing effectively in this small society. so, I mentioned this example of this cooperative assembly that full of sympathy ,care and love relation , which need a lot of time starting from the family ; the family can form a special fund box to use it for buying things can the whole members get benefit from as buying refrigerator or cultural books .The baby peaceful coexistence in such family atmosphere make him believe in the collective cooperation benefit for the whole advantage , this typical case should be repeated in all different education phrases in order to make him acquire the cooperative culture side by side with the scientific one. here, I want to mention that the state unfortunately dose not present the public useful services for all according to specific economic priorities, it presents them randomly in a way make every one fells that these services will not help them in improving their living standard.

Using the tax justice as an encouraging mean for special investment We always call to establish successful economic projects led to increase the foreign currency through arising the export's rate to the big industrial countries; these projects help also in controlling unemployment by setting up new industries can complete the present adopted ones. here, collecting taxes in little rate from big amount of investment projects is much better from collecting high rate from some projects ,so this tax can consider as a obedience mean to establish new investments , which have weak rate of tax. however, we should not grant random freeing for different projects without considering their economic utility, this way avoids us what is applied now when state takes over the reserved situation's results between the tax and investment policies and it is already unable to invest the huge amount of stored local money in investment project, even if these projects need to local financing as the touristy investment.

Any investor is evaluating the tax rate in any country before investing his money in, so we have to attract this investor to invest in our country. This is the situation that the southern Asia' countries do to attract this investor; the wealth, fortune and money transferred to these countries to escape the obstacle and hindrance that restrict of their competition activity. So, we should adopt a special scale for industries' success by modifying the economic rules and decision in case of any defect between the active results and mentioned conditions in this scale ; we have also to fallow up the new developments for our investors to avoid their transition to other countries can provide them better atmosphere for investment.

The law form of these imposed taxes

162

Page 163: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

We should not distinguish between private projects and common ones even if the earnings of these projects are for people only, but we should connect specifying tax rate with the success these projects can achieve. These taxes should be modified according to the new economic conditions, in other word according to the achieved success volume; this is what we hope from the executive power to apply with of course providing some flexibility in economic rules, decisions and instructions. The Cyprus government, for example, exploit the civil war in Lebanon and widen its airport by building up new auditorium can hold a lot of transit passengers, while Damascus international airport was the best airports can replace the Beirut one; This action, if it was happened, can provide a lot of foreign currency as a result of the air crossing fee.

So, we should set up a research center can observe the global economic events and get benefit from them even if we are obliged to arrange the tax and financial burden upon the adverse projects, this center consequently can specify the tax section justly in order to encourage the hiring process and control unemployment gradually .

Bank interests and taxes Since the interests are the used mean for collecting money in banks to be used in investment project directly or indirectly and since tax policy has an opposite direction of these interests, we should find a strong relation between them considering their influence on the investment process. Arising the tax's rate will escape money to outside country to find another suitable economic atmosphere, while arising the interest's rate can attract more funds and consequently arise the investment cost due to the interest that bank get from the paid money for investors.

Decreasing the tax rate and bank interest is encouraging investors to invest their money here because decreasing the tax's rate make these money run away from public sector to private one. Here, we should observe this process perfectly due to its big dangerous on economy because it may result a false businessmen (war wealthy), so, to protect ourselves from those people we should create special information bank adopt the studied projects that confirm their economic utility for all sides. I want here to assure the necessity of connecting tax's rate with interest motions and with all economic activities such as tourism, export, and services.

Using ministry of finance's information in servicing economyAfter providing the suitable atmosphere for collecting tax, we can exploit the existed information in the scientific computer center in the ministry of finance in order to correcting the economic method. We should, furthermore, form a committee consists of the same vocation's members, and this committee studies the reasons of its collapse and tries to find the suitable solutions for reactivating its economic energy especially when we make the imposed tax's rate on net profit about 25 % to provide the required liquidity for action and giving.

So , ministry of finance's viewpoint for any commercial work should be to activate its energy to take the ministry's share in reasonable and convincible way; we hope from ministry to grant this psychological case for taxpayer in order to achieve their useful results either in export or different economic activities. Blinding this free treatment will prevent the money holder of initiation this money because of his fear of public sector, which needs to reform its

163

economic establishments especially after our submission to globalization by the competition of our neighbor countries' products.

The process of imposing taxes is very complicated one should be treated as all economic situations , we should first remove the psychological partition between taxpayer and tax imposer , and make its rate never go past 30 % to respond to people's requests and wishes . I speak also in this research about the relation between taking the tax's decisions and the encouraging factors for correct economic planning , we should try to hire hands in productive projects can provide a suitable income , however I mean by production , the production that can achieve quality and price if the nation tries to reach to what it dreams of .here , we should try hard to achieve the youth's dreams to avoid any possible disappointment that may afflict who spend a lot of years trying to use his scientific level in improving his living standard but in vain . I call, for that reason, to decrease taxes as much as we can and replacing it by useful economic projects as big industrial countries does, Germany for example resort lately to decrease its tax's rates to support its economy that is facing some completion problem.Finally, I hope that in this research I can shed light upon the perfect using for revenues in industrial projects instead of storing them in our state survey since they are just a tax despite what this word means for taxpayers.

Chapter five

1- activating the chambers of commerce role Ignoring economy's role and the globalization sideling effects is some thing ridiculous nowadays under this world's new economic atmosphere because taking a economic decision is depending on world's atmospheres, the environment that reacting with each other, and also

164

Page 165: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

on knowledge which is the effective weapon in providing the commercial activities within all countries. We can't provide this effective economic atmosphere without the connection between us and the outside world to know well world markets (import & export) in addition to the deep knowledge through the civilized touch in a way suit our national principles. So we should enrage the economic civilized competition through activating the chambers of commerce's role, putting the suitable solutions for any economic problem that could obstacle the development and modernizing our walk by productive discussion which enable us to find the healthy solution for any new mistakes and the ability to handle them.( I don't want to speak about Damascus chamber of commerce more than I did, but what is pushing me to do that is the behavior of one member towards national economy's benefit).

The election for this chamber is to represent some people in the economic field in this country so he and all members should carry out the opinion or point of view the general meeting's members in lovely, good will and faithful way. No doubt that the best authority that represent any conversation is the chamber of commerce which should direct the conversation within all member and respect any economic opinion whatever it has a big or small value by publishing this opinion via our media in order to make others comment on it either through symposiums or through periodically economic newscast which are full of these general meeting members' opinions.

Everybody knows that I'm an economic writer who writes in different local and Arabic newspapers and magazines. I have published a book in title "economic lancets" speaking about some problems with offering some possible solutions. This book takes account a lot of people except this member who admit this to me in Tehran where we were together among the Syrian businessmen delegation to Iran. he said to me in mockery way (I have read your book, what you have said in it present you as the only perceptive man in this world) .I wish he had a scientific comment that criticize the economic subjects I have discussed in that book in order to participating together in our economic reformation, what make it worse is the insistence of chamber vice- chairman to publish me not my economic studies in the chamber's magazine without any convincing reason. I think the reason is either the chamber's preventing of discussing the economic reformation that everyone faithful to his country is seeking for, or the chamber's disagree to present me to the general meeting 's members whom have the final decision in this field.

This magazine should be full of scientific researches that handle the commercial problems and the possible solutions. We can consider this mean as one of the means that help in presenting economic problems for the executive authority to make a constructive discussion between chamber and these authority's specialists in order to find the suitable solution. This means also could help in building an effective discussion between the chamber's members and the general meeting ones or even between the chamber's members and all the economists who are looking forward for economic reformers' books in order to attribute by themselves in revealing the economic claims truth and the set forth solution ways. So they are facing two cases: revealing what critics and writers forget and the second is the objection on what they wrote which may expose new economic mistakes they could give their opinion about these mistakes' solution. I really wished the chamber to adopt this course. Here I find myself obliged to clarify some obstacles that could face some people who work in commerce and what is the chambers of commerce's role.

2-The chambers committed mistakes

165

Page 166: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

1) They don't contribute or participate in formulation economic instructions, decisions and rules. Some of them could say the executive authority's side is the opposite, here I can reply on this transverse that the authority was right in this behavior because it hasn't notice any exerted effective activity from that chamber such as making an scientific economic office study the decisions and instructions that apply on every vocation's works , then subject them to this vocation general authority members' opinion I order to compare all this with what is applied in that advanced countries in preparation of proposing an scientific and practical suggestion to the executive power. Here I would like to ask businessmen whom are members in chamber and in Pearlman as well: have you proposed of any suggestion or study about modifying chamber's system, work and its reaction with executive power? In other words those members haven't work for enabling the real friendship between chamber and executive power.2) unmaking an economic research center in chamber: no doubt that every merchant is saving some amounts to maybe hard days as this proverb says( save your white pens to your black day) which is the healthy principle in commerce ,however till today the chamber of commerce hasn't resort to save this merchant's dignity and the lowest possible income if his material condition collapse (I will talk about this subject separately) , how lovely if every one of them use some of his savings for scientific researches to making a joint-stock company for this center, and every merchant or industrialist should proposing a visibility study for the project he wish to execute to that center which analyze its suitability according to these three points : 1- make sure of capability of execution this study on reality. 2- Presenting substitution projects: this center must be considered as an information bank that contains the substitution economic projects which are prepared according to the economic project priorities with the connection with economic developmental plans. I have spoken in my previous writing about how we should prepare priorities according to the developmental plans and economic reality's standards. This center should contribute in putting that plans, which is considered the guarantee for its founders whom contribute in financing the projects that these plans contain. We can say that this research center is the linking point between economic activities and executive power that is responsible for putting the developmental plans, in other words the active partnership between the private and public sector to reform economy.3-accession the commercial and industrial culture: to rule out the extemporary investment in our different economic fields due to the importance of the scientific study in any successful investment. That is because the present commercial atmosphere is completely different from that of previous ages where the regionalism has a big role in taking a decision for any economic project, but now the world decision is the basis in this field after all knowledge has an important role in providing the nation's suitable economic atmosphere which could attract other countries' commercial activities. The best authority can provide this atmosphere is the Syrian industrialist and economist since he is now having practical and scientific experiences in the connection between our country and the civilized economic world. This process provides for businessman acknowledging the world market (import, export, banking) in their different economic activities which is the best way to avoid his bad effects as for example the globalization matter which we can't acknowledge its effects without a civilized contact through special educational and cultural experience , building up a scientific research center able to do this mission , in addition to scientific symposium and exposition with visiting chambers of commerce of that civilized countries . our chambers should adopt the conversance trips in which the experiences is reacted between Syrian's vocation masters &businessmen and their similar in that advanced countries in other words it should support

the vocational cultural movement of the general authority's members each according to his vocation ,that what I confirm on in my writings .

3- setting a chamber's new work system I have spoken before about chamber reelection in a way prevent any elector for election's process if he doesn't pay his charges since the previous vote because any chamber member should completely commit of its rules and systems ,and show all his care of its work and activity .accepting this principle and knowing well the effects of paying these charges decrease the member's required quality in its general authority which make him qualified to set his opinion of activating the chamber's work when he prepares the annual general authority's meeting. However, till this moment this matter hasn't been discussed seriously in any meeting of the previous general authority.

In my opinion, the chamber's member in addition to the economic material commitment, he should have good reputation and well commercial knowledge to be distinguished from those merchants who have become controlling uselessly people's money through the seat they have in the justice palace .so, strengthen the commercial arbitral award is helping us in decreasing the numbers of economic case which courts are full of. What I want to say here is that the election's honesty could be reached through election of conjunct committee from chamber general authority's members and some public sector's employees, in other words the nominee should be subjected to the voted process which should be directed in a different way of the present one. However, I leave the technical details for experts, but personally I prefer the old commercial members' opinion, which doesn't satisfy some present merchants, that says: the election should be done on two stages in the first stage every vocation elect its committees' members (I specify a special article for this) then they elect their member for the chamber of commerce as a second stage, and in the same way for all vocations. We could also forming a special committee for small vocations collection which aren't qualified enough to form its special committee, and of course this matter should be studied and affirm from the general authority's members without any interfere from chamber of commerce.

4- the relation between the chamber with every vocation's special committees

I have said before that chamber should not interfere in formation any vocation's committee because some times there are unrepresentative for some vocation in that chamber; we notice for example that three or four of the twelve members are from fabric vocation while the furniture or metal commodities ones are unrepresentative in it. Moreover, its member are always busy in going to banquets and preferring their special interest more than public one, so they don't find the time to think about every vocation's problems( the internal and external marketing) that affect negatively the national production , which is in reality the result of these vocations' production. This causes what we can called the economic activity's failure, which needs an urgent handling, however, the medical consultative corporation (consist of chamber's members) have not hold any meeting to depict the suitable cure. All this is due to the fact of absence of vocational committee that feels their pains as they don't expect from other representative vocations to take any actions for their benefits.

If we go back in time we can remember that cotton was distributed by shares, so he was being sold in black market in different prices according to type, time and place. I myself was contract on exporting some quantity of (t-shirt) with one of the biggest company in united states; the condition was to provide the wanted quantity according to the specifications that

167

Page 168: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

were clarified in contract and in fixed price within specific time, but the adopted mechanism in marketing cotton in that days privet me from completing that deal and I think many of exporters have the same misfortune as me. Another case I have exposed to, I wish to export some cotton fabric to one Bulgarian establishment, but I could not complete the deal because the selling price was differing from the world price. The question here is: how many meetings have the chamber hold in that time to stand with the faithful workers in this country in order to pass this ordeal? I want to mention a very important and essential side which is distinction not the economic activities of the private sector and the public one as well because every one on them is trying to improve individual's income. So every one of them should consider him self responsible of reforming the other's twist without considering this act as an interfere in the other's interest since both sectors are the most important sectors that our economy based on. all these procedures need the improving of the private sector's representative chamber in its organizing and scientific situation, and also improve the public sector's establishments their general situations in order to make that atmosphere of democratic competition in opinions between two sectors; this atmosphere is helping in avoiding the economic disasters due to the gap's arising between them which weaken our exports and increase of our stored goods. Here, have the chamber board of directors' members realize this matter and helping the two sectors in overcoming this ordeal? Or the private interest prevents them of thinking in others, especially that the sorts of vocations that are represented in chamber are very little.

Since any quarrel within the general authorities' members in courts could weaken our public and private economic activities, chamber of commerce should set up a arbitral legal center arrange the confirmed agreement within merchants (members of authority) so every contract or agreement is considered ineffective if it has not its formula and its suitable conditions for two chamber's sides with keeping one copy in chamber. This action makes economists avoid engagement in solving the problems that obstacle the cooperation between them for the national economy's benefits.

Chamber is very neglectful in this side, and it should reform its economic channel to accompany with the new world economic situation. This center also encourage on investment's process when a lot of local and foreign richer start to believe that their works will be organized very well via chamber which organize legally and scientifically their work from the begging till merging or mutation to other activities. This is usually asked by any investor in this world, he asks: who will guarantee my invested money? Who is the examiner about the healthiness of economic projects that are for investing? This is really happen when the Syrian and Saudi businessmen had met in the chamber of commerce where our brothers Saudi said that we need to economic dialogue within the Syrian businessmen before any discuss with others.

Chamber has to work on changing this reputation through studying the routine which the Saudi Syrian partnership suffers from, or to resort to study the problems that foreign investors face and presenting the results as convincing suggestions. Consequently, I believe that the executive power will adopt these opinions and suggestions if they were from the convinced type as we all believe that the whole economic sectors have to cooperate in the reformation process. However, the practical and scientific experience pf chamber's members are not sufficient in handling with the different wanted reformations especially that a lot of vocations are unrepresented in the chamber's membership, the best example here is neglecting these letters and faxes according to these dates:

168

Page 169: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

letters' date: 27/1, 10/3 , 4/4 ,2/6 , 16/7/1998 – 28/1 , 24/3 ,23/5, 20/9/1999 – 25/9 , 8/10/2000 – 28/5 , 15/9 , 26/12 , 30/12/2001 – 14/1 , 8/8 , 22/8 , 21/9 , 7/10/2002 .Faxes date: 21/3, 23/9, 13/11/2001 – 14/1, 21/8, 11/9, 5/10, 13/10, 18/11/2002. Since this chamber has silenced and has not response to these letters and faxes, it has become the neglectful side, at least in this field which is spreading voice one member of general authority in its regular monthly magazine. Chamber, which thinking not in the economic reformation's process, thinks that it is the only owner for this magazine forgetting that my economic subjects have become spreading in the official Syrian media. I wish I had the chance (me and other economic reformers) to express my opinion through this magazine to apply the principle of revealing our and other opinions, which is the basis in civilization's development. This chamber should prefer the national work on individual one in other words making the economists' work as workshop that all people can get benefits from. We should start in this course even if we reach to a place make the individual feels that what society grants him is not less important than what he gets from his private work. These actions could decrease the wish of the general authority's members to nominate themselves to chamber of commerce membership; in other hand chamber's reformation provides an economic atmosphere helping in finding a good relation with commercial sector's establishments. The problem here is that chamber's members are doing all what they can do to stay in their membership for as long as possible to close the gap in front of reformers to get in its membership in order to prevent them to find out any immobility in the chamber's walk in the right track.

5- The scientific activity for chamber's members Since the chamber of commerce's member is representing an important group in society (the economists who work indifferent economic activities), he should in my opinion have two important factors: knowledge and experience, taking in consideration that practical life is a big school can teach man many things he never take in schools and universities . These things can be obtained through his economic activities in his commercial life, his participation in scientific and cultural symposium and his friction in the different means of media, this is the lowest level that the nominee for chamber should have, the practical and scientific culture; so, any one wants to enter the economy world should prepare himself from the beginning to these two cultures.

Society of course is in first responsible of reveling the any nominee's qualifications who has a big the responsibility when he votes. for that reason, I feel very sorry when one of the economists blame the executive power for execution not specific economic reformation forgetting that the people he has elected are unqualified enough to make the effective economic discussion with that power. So, how this power would know private sector's problems without presenting them in scientific and logical way as the doctor who cannot prescribe medicine for any patient without handling or recognizing its condition .

Every member in the chamber should compose a book to handle one subject of the economic ones which every person works in the economic field suffers from. This book can give him lasting fame after going out that chamber especially that it is not monopoly thing , the member can satisfy of the chair for one or two rounds extremely ( 8 years) I think this period is enough to evaluate what electors promise to do.

Organization commerce's matters

The chamber should support the information center of any merchant's activities, wishes and ambitions in order to decrease the efforts that could be exerted in building any commercial relation with one of its members. It may also rely on some commercial specialist lawyers or even employ them, so any merchant can call for one of them through it when he wants to build up a contracted relation between him and another merchant. Depending on this style helps the chamber's arbitration department in solving problems correctly because this problem will be very simple and easy since it is resulted from contractual clear conditions.The chamber could set special standards for market's capacity for every vocation with clarifying the volume of vocations' increasing and also the unavailable ones; this helps in decreasing specific vocation's volume which may cause to stagnation especially if this vocation depends only on the local market for selling. This market unfortunately is full of some goods and lacks other types because government allows the private sector to import and produce a lot of goods to cover the local needs and also for export. However, the profits they can get from the local markets due to the governmental protection make them do not think in making any exportation's process.

Here, the chamber's studies department or any another one that observes the marketing vocational balance should work on achieving this equation: The total production for vocational works = grand total numbers of every vocation's annual works.

Number of annual works = exportation volume + the local marketing volume So if one equation' edge become unbalanced, there will be what we can called (disorder in vocational balance) then the chamber should interfere to place balance back as before. Let us take this condition:Number of annual works > exportation volume + the local marketing volume The remedial cure in my opinion could be through searching for foreign markets to compensate the shortage in local marketing's volume which face big local competition because the producer could subject to bankruptcy or other economic crisis so he ought to resort to the foreign markets leaving the local competition to others .I want to assure here that finding out foreign markets is the most essential duty of chamber of commerce which not only responsible of organizing the exposition's participation, but also create a special center in studying markets scientifically. This center can provide (for certain wage) the positive and healthy information for any merchant wishes in exporting one of his kinds to a special market. This paying wages is considered a commercial act helps in financing the foundation's setting up with guaranteeing the required liquidity for any work, in the same manner for any commercial establishment but it is working under chamber cover since the beneficiary is the general authority's members from A to Z.

Applying the automation system We should not restrict automation system to announce the general authority's members for meeting with the foreign arrival that visit chamber, but we should enlarge this activity by making some computer courses for its members. The computer here could be used to inform members of the latest global economic situations such as currencies, stocks, bonds, the finical situation of companies , corporations and banks to determined whether dealing with them or avoid that in order to avoid our economic situation any possible danger. It could also connect merchants with chamber through internet which facilitate the commercial activities between our local establishments and global ones, in addition to that we could make an electronic

magazine which is for sure better than the chamber's normal magazine which delay the chamber events' access to the general authority members, mean while the contacts between chamber and general authority via automation will decrease the big presser that chamber face as a result of increment their members.

Organizing the chamber position within national economy No doubt that the chamber has a notable economic position because it represents an important group of economists. It is also managing economically speaking a big money mass especially after government has become activating some private sector's activities, the question here is have the private sector activities increased the chamber's ones?. So, don't find it odd if I call for changing chamber's place to contain a suitable building that include all the economic activities and operations with a special part near the commercial market to response to merchants' daily needs. Some people would say: chamber doesn't have the sufficient money to provide the new building and the important requirements to make that parts, my answer is: each merchant contributes in this project according to his material ability and ask the government to consider these money as part of imposed taxes because the increasing of the economic activities will increase the collected taxes. this is what we can call the economic cooperation within all society members; we cannot restrict activities in three economic sectors, but we can set up an economic cooperation within society's members , one person offers effort, the other offers money and the third one offers both, and each one deserve to get as much he offers.

Here, I consider the chamber a very effective factor in this cooperation because it is in my opinion the essential organizer for private sector's works; the country's bodies as well are organizing the public sector's works. Since chamber is the agreement mean between two sectors, the public sector should support it to impose its respect over private one; the respect which it can obtain through its contribution in the economic reformation and response to the merchants' justice requests. The question here is: did this matter require special qualifications for chamber's members? The answer is starting from choosing the suitable member with revision the chamber members for applying the election order that is stated from each one of them; so, the one who disagree this harmonious program will be separated and replaced by the one who is the following in sounds. we can see that the merchant is responsible at first of chamber's success by the right choosing of the suitable member who has a reforming economic program that prepared before the voting's process by the general authority of merchants who are officially registered in chamber membership.

Forming investment boxThere is an old category says that every thing is achieved by society is better than what is achieved by individual alone, so why the chamber of commerce does not play an important role in establishing an economic factories and foundations that exploited the people and merchants' deposited money in the chamber's common box. This chamber's act is for sure will be built up upon the economic researches and studies that the research center, which we mentioned before, does. Moreover, if chamber allows people to save their savings in this box according to each one material and mental abilities, it will contribute effectively in building a

171

Page 172: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

healthy economy, and face those who claim that are businessmen who cause a lot of damages when they failed in their economic projects and throw aside the national economic benefit.; I'm not judging those businessmen, but there are a lot of examples about this matter. The chamber's good work will be definitely considered not only the effective cure for such as disease, but also the healthy use of money in useful investment projects, which every individual considers them better than any individual or commercial institution to invest his savings in.

I think the foreign investors will find these projects that are putting forward from chamber are the best mean to invest in, especially when it subjected to the general authority's continuous observation which made these projects' profits distributed on all society's individuals. Here, the chamber should take some of these profits (let us say all the profits) for forming retirement fund , which it is itself an investment, and can replace the insurance companies because the Syrian merchant does not resort to life insurance idea . The annual or monthly fee for this box is differed according to the characteristics that merchant wishes to have because merchant could depend on it to finance many successful economic projects. However, in spite my severe insistence on the chamber of commerce's members to think about my suggestion; they still till now cover the merchant's difficulties by collecting money which for sure affects the merchant's fame and dignity

Businessmen boards Our chamber resorts to create works' meeting between businessmen in Syria and those in every foreign country to facilitate the investmental and commercial's exchanging operations, however inviting those businessmen in every country to visit the other one according to specific appointment is not enough , it should set a work system for every common meeting between Syria and other country to study the two markets , works on presenting its suggestions to the executive authority about modifying the loser trade balance. I prefer here to exaggerate businessmen missions to form a special body for every vocation, in addition to forming special meetings for every country they deal with. Now, the choosing of representative of those businessmen from all vocations and works according to this relation: Vocation A: vocation's works board – a participant member in every board of works' boards Vocation B: the same Vocation C: the same Works' boards in every country are consisting of the grand total of the representative members for one or all vocations.

Forming works' boards in this way helps in activating all the economic activities in the same time according to each vocation's benefits and interests. This is the work that chamber of commerce in these days unable to do due to the hard economic circumstances we have to face, especially that offer is now more than demand, and the big industrial countries want to invest our material raw in their industry and to spread their products in all over the Arab world markets. We (Arab) are obliged to open the borders within us, but unfortunately this opening will make room for marketing the imported goods from some Arab countries in other countries' markets that build their economy on custom protection's principle. Here I want to assure on the Arab businessmen role in distributing hands, industry and agriculture in Arab world countries to reach for the wanted economic integration within these countries; this integration can provide the required money for developing the Arabian industry and preparing it to face globalization. So, providing the works' boards the practical and scientific experience will supply them the financial power, which can play an essential role in providing insurance center in global's exchanges and markets.

Management the transitional period for privatizing banks or allowing for foreign

banks to open branches in SyriaThe Syrian government and other different sectors are directing their financial matters with the outside world through central bank of Syria and the commercial one as well because we do not have any other bank out of the Syrian nationality. So, since our banks performance is very weak and lack any experience in this field, we can start calling the Arab bankers people who are working for long time in the foreign banks to form with them the core of our bank's improvement. We could also build up some conjoint banks (Syrian – Arabian) and later (Syrian – foreign) without forgetting in the same time developing our banks cadres to provide the required coherence between them and the new banks.

Making an economic lectures The businessmen character should not be accompany with the amount of money they have, but unfortunately this is the way that is adopted in the development countries because they do not aware of the advantages of science and work over money. We cannot call any man who is very rich, but does not have any practical or scientific experiences a businessman; in other words we should correct the misunderstanding that money is every thing in the first place and the science and experience in the second one. So, considering this point we should encourage making some economic lectures at chamber's auditorium and by merchants themselves. They can speak about all the economic conditions and obstacles that have faced them with mentioning the suitable solutions and ask for other solutions for unsolved problems. In those both cases they must carry out a quiet, scientific and rational discussion about the competence of the chosen solution with thinking in substitution ones.

In my opinion, applying the our and other opinion's principle is a very important matter especially when the lecture's subject and audiences are relating to one vocation, so these lectures' discussions could be considered the basis for solving the problems with the executive and legislative powers and also for setting the collective participation in showing a relevant opinion. I think that the vocational culture is the lowest level of culture every merchant should have in practicing his daily work; it is also forming the wanted conscious that allows him to recognize the importance of every economic section in support the linkage with the other economic ones that are forming the total national production. Applying this way contributes in the selfishness' removal from economists' spirit in order to succeed the economic reformation which the government looks for. I assure here that the merchant culture is very necessary to apply the economic reformation, and that mentioned cultures are the causing road to two points: the first is the vocational reformation, while the second is developing the vocational culture which we (merchants) are in dire need ofا.We still far away of this road due to the obstacles that chamber made by preventing the general authority's members to express their economic reformation opinions, however my important question is: does the chamber think that publishing an economic subject, which its content differs from that she used to write in the general authority magazine, is sufficient for exciting the authority members' wish to participate in the economic reformation's process that our president Dr. Bashar AL-Assad is looking for? Otherwise why authority would like to publish my economic subjects in the different local media and foreign as well?

I'm writing this chamber's reformation subject not to be one of its members because membership is always for those who able to spend a lot of money to provide the needed sounds. I only have wish from any chamber's member to compose an economic book that handle the chamber's reformation at first and then the economic one in general; we cannot ask state to correct its economic track without correction ourselves ( merchants) through our representative foundation " the chamber of commerce". How lovely when we see that parties and occasions, which chamber made, are devoting to discuss a chamber's work agenda, not to only one's fill or hearing the hapelpapel's sound.

So, I'm writing this research to discuss the reformation some aspects that chamber never resort to do it although the changing of local and global commerce's conditions. Here, I think we need to form a reformation committee which is elected from the general authority and some qualified and experienced economists to start reformation the chamber's work and system in order to make it able to share the state in its economic reformation missions.

The Syrian Saudi commercial relations \ Arabic economy I was invited to the Syrian chambers of commerce union to form a Syrian delegation consist of businessmen to make a business visit to Saudi Arabia, so I thought that this meeting with people who have treated before with the Saudi commercial foundations will give me a clear idea about the supposed Arabian- Arabian relation and the obstacles that face the commercial exchange within Arabian countries. We should apply this exchange to create Arabian economic world faces the other economic fronts as the European one which causes to create the conjunct European market deals in one currency (Euro).

Creation of this mass has been made although the present differences within European people as for language, traditions customs and history but the only common thing between them is the culture and awareness that form the needed power to stand against the American economic power. This front also in supporting this union by distribution the products and exports within themselves, while we as Arabs do not speak about any possible union except at celebrations and occasions due to the inharmonic arrangement for the present relations of Arab world people or how should it be.

Back to the meeting, some attenders complain that Saudi Arabia is taking down goods from truck to check it, and then return them after the goods' lack of the stylistic shape. This case is reflected negatively on the consumer's wish to buy the bad specification goods since the Saudi market is one of the free ones in the Arab world. This consumer is totally free in buying what he wants in the way he wants and at the time he prefers, so dealing with him is very difficult due to his unwilling of goods' quality or the sort of treating because of the Saudi customs reshipping goods especially when the beautiful cover play an important role in these goods. Any way, this sort of treating is blocking this exchanging between these two countries and is causing the Syrian exporters' reluctance of exporting Syrian goods to Saudi Arabia although its market is having strong purchasing power due to the rising of income's standards. The solution, in my opinion, could be through creating a Saudi commercial office in Damascus and Syrian one in Jeddah to study all the obstacles that face any exporter.

One of these obstacles as the attendants in that meeting clarify is: the hardness of providing the laboratory certificate that Saudi authorities ask for some commodities, so how could the Syrian exporter get the required quantitative analysis? Here, since the Saudi authorities insist

174

Page 175: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

on this analysis and the Syrian exporters want to keep their continuous exports to Saudi Arabia, I think they should participate in financing special laboratory for the sort of the required analysis for the benefits of both sides.Regarding our wish in strengthen the mutual investment, I think it is very hard to have any Syrian investment in Saudi Arabia due to the huge financial power the Saudi businessmen had had, and to the governmental facilities they have been granted. The solution could be by inviting Saudi businessmen to invest their money in tourism and productive projects in Syria with great financing facilities in return for the contribution of Syrian businessmen or government in Saudi projects on their lands. We can for example encourage the Saudi investment in Syria regarding the projects that produce goods contains on local Syrian raw materials, while the Syrian contribution will be by establishing the investment projects on their lands; this enables us to solve the crisis of big financing that we need to finance our investment on the Saudi Arabia lands.

To those who are complaining of the bad reception of the Saudi to Syrian businessmen I may say: the presence of the common commercial offices will definitely decrease the procedures that any one should make to get the visa; these mutual offices can arrange the meeting between the businessmen in each country, and prepare for their discussions, lectures and the expected visits for the economic projects. This experiment will support the mutual connection between businessmen in both countries, and cure the present psychological disharmony between these two countries' people in order to support the commercial cooperation and exchange and their economic relations in general.

This Arabian –Arabian cooperation could start through opening the investment's door for every Arabian citizen in order to restore the Arabian money that is controlled by world's Zionism. So, why Arabian governments do not study well the investment's atmosphere that foreign countries offer for the Arab investors? Why the Arabian possession on the Arab's lands is unauthorized although this investment may be as touristy villages that hire thousands of workers? moreover, we should not forget the countryside's hands and their important role in reception our brothers Arabs who want to spend their summer's vocation in our areas escaping from the high temperatures in their countries; This clarifies the firm connection between the tourism issues and the economic ones, so Syrian businessmen could build up touristy resorts according to the wishes of our dear Arabs in general and the Saudi in particular. Here, the executive power, in my opinion, will not obstacle the technical and financial investing that the private sector may apply to activate the healthy tourism in Syria; this investing will definitely support the Arabian commercial activity through the presence of Arabs including Saudi in that Syrian resorts, and will activate the Syrian employment and goods in those Arabs investors' markets.

The continues contact between purchasers, who represent our tradition markets, and sellers in our local markets will inform us the purchasers' opinions and wishes that will be informed to our local sellers who will also inform wholesaler about then to the producers according to the economic principle: " every economic work's elements are consisting of rings, each one has its specific affectivity and its success is affecting other rings' success and vice versa". so, how lovely if we build up tourist villages, which are financed by both investors ( Syrian and Saudi ) according to the tourists' wishes and requirements with making the needed and required advertisement for these touristy activities and villages. We can grant some economic advantages for those touristy villages' visitors such as granting special prices for hotels and restaurants, and making some amusing parties and scientific lectures. We can also create a touristy research center aims to set some touristy studies to put the ensuring roads for

175

Page 176: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

attracting the most possible numbers of tourists to these villages; this center can, for example, study the most famous touristy places and try to apply their successful factors in our country even if we obliged to modify this work rules and systems. I think that the investment's tripartite contribution ( Syrian- Saudi- European ) in these touristy projects can support the investment's process in the Arab World , in other words the cooperation between the Syrian capability – the Saudi finance and the European experiences will definitely encourage the foreign touristy investment in the Arab world. This investment that is limited to some foreign group to Syria, Lebanon and Jordon that all form a one touristy mass.

I want to draw your attention to a very essential matter that the touristy activity within countries is considered the approaching tools between the Syrian and Saudi parts and activating the love and harmony relation as well. This for sure will guarantee the moving of Saudi businessmen to meet Syrian ones according to the practical commercial treatment which look for only benefits regardless the brotherhood relations. So, why the Syrian businessmen ask the Saudi ones to do this while they themselves do not meet any foreign businessman unless there is a probable financial benefit?

Regarding the similarity of the Syrian and Saudi products, we can redistribution industry in Arab world be applying the market distribution's policy; this policy depends on the Saudi's export for its similar products in Syria to other Arab or foreign markets, and use these resulted amounts to purchase its needed products from Syria and vice versa .

Regarding the legal obstacles that face our exportation to Saudi, I think we should try seriously to remove them since the Saudi market is free one and consequently will lead us to the world market. We have to restudy the export and import rules in order to prevent any new factory's industrial licensing without checking whether if their Syrian production is able to be worldly marketed or not, and also we can create a common Syrian Saudi commercial center to organize the industrial and commercial mutual exchange. As a results, we should know that these rules are the basis in any success or failure of export's operation, so why we do not educate from other forerunner countries in this field and modify our rules to strengthen our commercial relations. I want to mention here one accident happened with me when I tried to export some Syrian products, which are made of local raw material, to Emirates market; where I had faced a great competition from Spain and Iran. I think the reason is regarding to the high prices of the raw materials that public sector is selling to our products; these prices have not consider the cost of the products that are supposed to be sell in local markets. Exportation in this case is the helper for decreasing the local market' selling prices, which as a result increase the income standard.

So, we should understand that it is not the Saudis fault when they refuse to purchase our products and resort to other less prices, more quality products, take for example the Swiss factories which start to produce the Saudi scarf under famous marks name. So, since the Saudi market's conditions are in harmony with the global ones, we can not ask them to purchase our traditional products according to our conditions. Here, I think the industrial and commercial Arab commerce should always meet to distribute the economic activities all over the Arab World; this studied distribution will definitely led to the wanted Arabic economic integration. The Lebanese merchant, for example, can invest his money in cotton cloth's industry in the regions that have this white gold instead of exporting his products to those countries that produce cotton. In other words, the internal Arabic competition of their production within the Arab countries instead of other global ones is reflecting the weakness of our Arabic economy; this weakness makes Arab markets led to purchase Arab productions

176

Page 177: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

from other foreign countries due to the fact that the Arabic producer is exporting the best quality of his products comparing with what he is marketing in the local market.Furthermore, we have lost lately our traditional used markets due to the global competition in price and quality; I mean here that, our continuous neglecting of improving our production's quality of Arabian scarf ,as an example, allow other famous global trademarks to produce it in china under trademark " nini richi" or else . So, the producers and merchants should not blame our brothers (Arabs), but aware well this foreign present competition in order to find out the reasons and solutions as well.

The merchants here should strengthen the Arabian line through suggesting some rules that encourage the export and easy its obstacles since they doubt in the present ones. They could form a common committee between chambers & businessmen and related authorities aims to find out the effective solutions for the exportation's problems; in addition to create a scientific research center study the export's process with all vocations' owner at the beginning and then expose the resulted studies to the responsible governmental authority. So, we have to prepare ourselves well to convince others that we have removed all the obstacles that they may face. We should aware also of the near countries competition such as turkey which is considered the biggest competitive in our region due to its agricultural and industrial capabilities .here, the Syrian government should increase the entry rates of Turkish cars that pass Syrian lands to the gulf area and use these revenues in activating our exports that suffer from a great global competition. It should also make a special scientific study clarify the reasons of turkey or Jordan success in their export in order to provide for our exporters the same atmosphere of theirs. In short, we should work on the informatics openness to prepare ourselves for facing any possible effects of opening borders and canceling different guardianship, which the private sector suffers from till nowadays.

Now, regarding the official relationship between the Syrian and Saudi people, Syrian businessmen are always complaining that they can not get their visa easily, while the foreign people are granted their visa in airports or borders if they like. However, I think the Saudi will change this treatment and offer the needed facilities when both Syrian and Saudi businessmen try to set exchanging advantages' principle and invest their money for this principle's benefit. Since globalization has become an inevitable matter, the Arabian countries should exert a lot of efforts to create an economic union, which tries to growing the Arabic abilities and capabilities to be able to face that economic invasion. So, the Syrian businessmen should aware this invasion well and keep asking the Saudi government to facilitate the travel problems not only for official delegations, but also for ordinary people. In return, the Syrian chambers union should specify the real requirements of Saudi businessmen to grant them the needed facilities and to provide the required investment atmosphere that attract the Arabic funds.

I had written this research about the Syrian and Saudi businessmen according to the meeting that I had been invited to for forming the Syrian delegation in the mutual discussion in Saudi Arabia. I touch on the importance of repairing the marketing volume to fulfill the Saudis' wishes and requirements and building up the correct commercial relation that is based on the mutual benefits. However, this meeting is held on the basis of the chamber's invitation for businessmen, while it should be periodically matter to discuss the ability of finding some solution for our exports' present obstacles. It can also discuss some developmental plans to encourage the Arabian- Arabian investment and consequently attract the Saudi one to our lands by providing the financial benefit, which is the only motive for any possible treatment.

The Syrian- Iranian commerce You can consider me as a businessman due to my long history in the commercial and industrial work started from 1954. I am also one person in this country who pushed by his love to his country to reveal a lot of economic mistakes in this changed economic atmosphere. One of these changed conditions was starting the commercial treatment between Iran and Syria; the Iranian public organization during the Iranian – Iraqi war started to visit Syria to purchase some goods then this treatment began to comprise exporting some industrial products to Syria. Here, I started seriously to create a commercial relation with Iran taking in my consideration its national direction towards Arabic people. So, I encouraged the Iranian factories to export their products (trucks, cars, electric stations, tooth sets and cars' spare parts) either by participation in bids or by the direct treatment with private associations' owners. However, I think that the Iranian businessmen should take in their consideration that the Syrian market is a free one and study well their prices to harmony with the global ones. That is what we notice actually through inability of the Iranian producers to enter e in the Syrian market through the governmental bids they participate in, and when they win the bids, they loss money for their companies due to the wrong study for their cost or the bad purchasing for raw materials .moreover, in the Syrian government's bid Iran was treated as a developing country according to the quality marks, but the Iranian are always saying that their products have a greet quality especially that were produced under European patent such as the factory of IRAN TRANSFO from SEMINS. The Iranian government tries hard to convince the Syrian ministry of electricity about this subject by calling some misters or experts to visit her factory and to see in reality its high technology, but the Syrian authorities still having their previous beliefs.

We can divide the Iranian companies and producers to two parts: the first is the corporation that make the geometrical design and get its installations from inside or outside Iran; the second is the productive factories that export their products directly to the Syrian customers. Speaking about the obstacles that face both of them we can notice:

1- The corporation that design projects do not set a clear relation with the authorities that import their sets to. These authorities are either participating in the same bid that the Iranian company wants to participate in, or change their initial prices when they know that the Iranian company won this bid.2- the high cost of producer which is resulted from two reasons: the first one: he did not study well this cost's elements so getting a little profit from marketing his products locally make him ignore the export's process, while the second one: his purchasing of raw materials in high prices. I pointed out the Iranian producers of this competition problem and call them to study well the purchasing process of raw materials in a way make them able to find the suitable source that can offer them two goals. The first one is : exporting their products to the global markets including the Syrian one , this process that strengthen the Iranian economy due to the foreign currency, which is required for financing the importing process of raw materials and using the available ones in other economic fields. The second one is: increasing the Iranian individual's income by decreasing the selling prices of the local produced products as a compensation of his exerted efforts within the previous period. 3- The farness between Iran exporter position and importer one as a result of the Iranian – Iraqi war and consequently inability of using the Iraqi land for their products passing.Back to Syria and its routine obstacles, a lot of the Iranian exporters complain of the treatment because they are unable to keep their abidance of their prices or keeping the transitional insurance for the long time, which Syria need to study the presented offers. We need to know also that the technical and administrative body of the Iranian offerer does not

178

Page 179: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

prepare the offer well according to the international standards and conditions (price, quality, time) although his obtain of the book condition in suitable time. So, I think it is very urgent to create a common committee of both countries' businessmen to discuss these problems and try to find some solutions, which can be credence as the basis for the mutual commercial exchange. Some of the suitable suggestions for this exchange could be as the fallowing:

1) Build up an Iranian commercial center in Damascus and other Syrian one in Tehran to be as a lasting showroom for each country's products; I offer this suggestion in the Iranian Syrian businessmen meeting.2) Working on increasing the Syrian exports, which are lacked in Iran, to Iran and vice versa because we notice the opposite in the present mutual commercial exchange.3) Building up common companies for marketing both countries' products in their markets and the global one as well. The both countries can also merging their industrial capabilities to build up a new needed industry depending on their local experiments and the available raw materials.4) Build up a committee that is consisting of both countries' businessmen to remove any problem or obstacle may face the commercial exchange, and study all the possible means for facilitating it through the customs freeing or granting advantages in importation. 5) Organizing the major fairs within both countries regardless the international usual ones. This operation helps in acknowledging every country' industrial capabilities and even each separate industry ones. 6) Making the letter of credit that issued by Iranian chamber of commerce replacing the bank guarantee, which form a burden on the Iranian participant shoulder in the Syrian government's bids. It is very basic matter because most Iranian companies and corporations do not participate in these bids due to the delay of the Syrian government in getting these guarantees back for them. 7) Build up a committee for industrial and marketing partnership to make each country get benefit from the other's available raw materials. This partnership should accompany with setting a consumption plan for their local markets and another exporting one for this cooperation's resulted production. So, I think we should take care of that mutual commercial relation within both countries because it supports the friendship relations.

An economic phenomenon In one of my work trip way back, I was surprised by the air hostess giving the foreign passengers two applications, one for personal details and the other as a declaration of the foreign currency they have. Here, one of the passengers, who were sitting beside me, began to simile and when I ask him about the reason, he told me that he was very astonished of the information in the foreign currency application since Syria began seriously adopting reformation's process. However, when I ask him so many questions about his country's economic situation he stopped me by asking me these questions:1- Do you think that any foreign who is coming to Syria will bring a lot of foreign currency while he has a better way for paying his commitments in Syria?2- Does the present treatment in getting the foreign currency from the Syrian commercial bank is encouraging any foreign to declare the amount of the foreign currency he has with him?3- Is there one or two market for exchanging Syrian pound for different sort of other foreign currency? Does this tow market principle encourage foreign to exchange in the insured national banks?

4- What are the export and import's rules in your country; I know that some commodities are imported by foreign currency according to market price while the prices of other ones are paid by the export currency, which is more than the real global price for that currency.5- What is the Bank's System of your country? Is it possible to open credit in any commercial bank and getting the bills of lading as other countries do? I know that your country try to improve its banking situation, what are the steps it takes so far?6- What are the means your government resort to when there is a possible decline in local currency price comparing with the foreign one? I know that the decline of the currency price within 20 years was so big when one dollar was about 3.90 Syrian pounds then it has become 50 pound, then the government resorts to fix it about 49 – 54 which means +/- 10 % as a rate..!! 7- How much I would exchange the Syrian pound against dollar or other currency in case of releasing foreign currencies? 8- Has the government take any persuades to protect its economy from globalization's results? Dose it able to provide the suitable conditions for entering the common European market? 9- Does the Syrian government think that the banking reformation should contain a confession from any foreign of the amount of foreign currency he has when he is entering Syria?10- What are the economic persuades of the Syrian government that it takes to improve individual income which makes them presently neglect their work? 11- Has the Syrian government adopt the informatics system to activate the administrative works and its economic relation with the outside world as well? 12- Has the corporation, which will undertake the reformation mission, a local or imported one? Has the local one practiced on this mission? 13- What are the dreams and hopes that private sector wishes from this reformation? 14- Has the ministerial crew have been formed according to reformation movement?15- What is the role of economic organizations and corporations especially industrial & commercial chambers in these reformation processes?16- Has the Syrian government allow for some economic reformers to participate in the reformation through their publishing of some books and articles in different media means? 17- After my longtime hearing of his questions that need a lot of time to be answered, I asked him to stop these unlimited inquiries and gave him my book where he can find the answers of his questions. This book's economic subjects are the proof of the freedom which the government has granted for economists; on the other hand it is proving the government's seriousness towards this reformation. Here, I was surprised from his face changing color when he told me : you proved to me your credibility in treatment, you are having two characteristics businessman and diplomat since you take yourself out of big embarrassing impasse due to my plenty questions in short period. He continued: I will read your book then discuss it with you and who knows I may be the first investor in Syria. This is an accidental event with one foreign who was totally surprised of this previous application. Here, I want to start asking ourselves before others these questions about that action's fitness: 1) Is not this action was adopted by the countries that have stick and severe economy?2) Does this action grant us a good reputation?3) Does this foreign can bring in and out any amount of foreign currency by different better means?4) Can this foreign replaces the rest balance of Syrian currency in his way back whereas he can not hold it in his departure?

5) Why we do not resort to another medicine (if we can call that action a medicine) by restudying our economic reality in a way guarantee for us the needed foreign currency for achieving our economic ambitions such as raising individual income. 6) Is not necessary to care about creating stocks markets and foreign banks which both are the most important factors in the investment process? So, hurrying in the economic reformation has become a national need to improve the situation of our present investment market. We, the economists, know our economic problems and know how we should solve them better than any foreign side; however, we can resort to the Arab economist who are living outside Syria and looking for practicing this reformation. The reformation which should be completed according to a studied comprehensive plan contains our all different social sorts and depends on the priority principle according to our present and future capabilities.

Economic TrafficOne day attract my attention one behavior of some traffic policemen who are standing in basic squares (oumawyeen square), starting to record a violation for the cars which have a front or back protection. This scene inspired me to write about this subject: the reflection of this behavior as other behavior on economy, this behavior of these traffic policemen who forget their important matters they have to do to participate effectively in the economic reformation. The basic reason for people resorting to this protection, in my opinion, is due to traffic department neglecting the matter of granting driving license; this department could open special schools for teaching driving then granting these licenses. It should also setting traffic lights in their suitable positions and recording a violation for any one object it in the same penalty which is imposed on the one who use that protection, and also observe the walking people to catch those who cross the street out of the specific walking passing. The traffic policeman usually dose not care with the taxies which have become only a moving iron heap and form a serious danger on tourism because these taxies are used largely from tourists and businessmen. So, he forgets those taxies and focus on those wreaked chassis cars that the government allows to import them although its awareness of our traffic and drivers.I want to go deeply in the economic duties of this man who is considered the connecting point between individual and the executive power. He is the nearest man to traffic and drivers' problems; he is the suitable man who can find the proper solutions for any possible traffic especially near mosques, schools and clubs. So, he has a great responsibility in informing his special department about all what he notices in his specific area; he can inform the cleanness department about those neglectors in their duties which may cause environmental diseases that are cost a lot of money to be removed. He can also watch those drivers who are careless in keeping up their engines which are spreading a very poison gas( carbon dioxide) can increase the environmental pollution ; here we can ask the cars' productive companies to care in keeping up engines especially that our streets have become so narrow as a result of cars' parking in road's both sides. This traffic problem is also considered as an economic one due to its increased accidents numbers and the injured or dead numbers which can be obtained from hospitals and clinics records. I think that the problem is qualifying not those traffic people, the qualification that make them understand that they are the mirror which can transport every individual's traffic problems to the executive power , so this imposes upon us to make a elaborated study about their role in economy as a whole.1) Environment: countries nowadays have appropriated amounts in their budgets for environment protection; here I wonder: have the traffic policemen a role in these amounts ' volume? The answer is:

181

Page 182: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

They should observe the emitted smoking from the pipe that is connected with car's engine, this smoking which is full of carbon dioxide that polluted environment. Here, the traffic department , I think, should adopt the financial reward's principle for those who can register the most number of cars 's infraction especially that this increasing of cars' numbers , as a result of the permitting of importing different kinds of cars, has not accompany with this traffic handling. Since the traffic policeman is standing in a specific area for over 8 hours, he is the best body that can decide this area's traffic problems (accidents, traffic lights and cars parking …). He can bring his opinions to light about the possible solutions for this area traffic especially that he knows well the drivers' problems and the walkers as well. He knows well the reasons of any problem that can be arise within individuals depending on their cultural standard, material positions and the way of solving this problem; however, he may convert it to the special authority or just ignore it since he is not responsible of this fight. I want to mention two accidents story: the first was that I saw one traffic guy, who is riding a motorcycle , dose not stop to offer any help although he witness a horrible accident, pretending that he is out of working hours and he is going home. Another one that I was going to Alsaieda Zaineb in one day of Ramadan, and I asked one of traffic guy to try to help in this unbearable traffic, he said that he is the irresponsible guy on this traffic and we should wait for the responsible person. In short, I think this is what we can could uncaring of vocation because there is nothing prevent them of solving any traffic problem.Some people may say what is your business in this traffic case? I should clarify for this people that our daily act or movement is an economic work. So, since this traffic policeman is doing a social service and this service is an important part of economy, the caring in him is an economic duty. Compare the losses of these two cases: the first one is in case of his careless or the existing not of the electronic observation while the second one is the case of the presence of all these factors. The statements of financial and bodily damages are definitely force us to use more of the foreign currency which should be used in other projects that can develop our individual's income; The same thing applies on the case of caring not about the effects of the position gases, which are resulted from the incomplete flammable of cars' oil, on environment . We have to pay in both cases a lot of money (in foreign currency) for getting the needed equipments to control these damages or even to provide the special hospitals, dispensary, and other medicines & cures. The traffic policeman has also a very important social side when he informs his colleagues about any happing quarrel within people or even any behavior dose not suit our customs or public properties. In this case people will feel the security and calmness they look for because this traffic policeman, who always exists in all street and places, is the best messenger for the people's problem to the executive power. Here, people can consider his role as their mother's one in keeping the good relation within all the family's members and especially with father; the father who is considered in this case the executive power which have money and consequently power that enable it to operate its people matters.Now, most of countries lay the motto of (police at your service) on traffic police shoulder because its economic role is not less than any other governmental authorities one. Economists nowadays consider presenting services is part and parcel of production's process ; the successful surgeon dose not guarantee the continuity of his work's quality without the presence of a qualified nurse care about the patient after the surgery. The good and well production also has no meaning if it is not marketed well, in short the successful economist will not achieve the planned success without providing him the safety arriving from and to his house. So, we should care about traffic policeman to fulfill his social economic duty very well since economy is society and each one can not be separate from another. We should choose him very carefully since he has to coexist daily with different kinds of people

182

Page 183: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

(teacher, intelligent, foolish, diplomat …etc) so, he should be social by nature in order to be able to coexist with all those people especially when he will draw their attention to the possible dangers or ask them to adopt an organizing matters that have been set to protect them.

We can start habilitate him early such as holidays by educating him traffic rules through a special light manner helps him in his scientific and civilized habilitation .however, this is force us to build up a special schools for traffic policemen as that vocational ones to be graduated as professional one or officer according to his marks' standard. In addition to that, this school should educate him another language to make him avoid any possible embarrassment when any foreign guy asks him a simple question. This simple incident, in my opinion, could affect our country's reputation if he has a dropped cultural standard.

Now, we can not ask this traffic policeman to keep his honesty and probity without providing him an acceptable living standard otherwise we will destroy all what we have built in few days. So, since we proved that this man has an economic benefit – decreasing the economic and material damages – we should apply the principle of give and take; he has, for example, to present a monthly report includes the sort of fouls and their time& numbers and also the possible solutions as well in return for financial reward as a compensation of his additional mental creative work. He can suggest to specify special stations for microbuses for both wide and narrow street, or a parking lot for cars according to small statistics for the cars that stop in his area at night ; he can also advice to stop any new building permit if it dose not consider the possible inhabitant's cars . Furthermore, he can suggest correcting the traffic light's position, supplying the microbus stations with special signs indicate on its moving line, time of arriving and departure, and specify special stations for taxies cap which should be divided within groups to organize the traffic. This organization decrease the financial and human being losses that may happen as a result of any possible means of transport's crashes, take the street from Uomawyeen square to AL-shami hospital as an example, they filed of decreasing the number of accident in this fantastic street through once by making it as double way street and once be setting new traffic lights which increase the accident due to its irregular system. However, they have thought of widen the street a little considering its near garden and the wide pavements on its both sides, these pavement that are used only for parking the new splendid cars of that area's inhabitants.

The increasing in using these new cars in Syria, in my opinion, is definitely contributed in arising economy power, but I think another individual contribution will be more effective and active. The individual can form a joint-stock company that has a positive economic utility through providing for any one wants to have a new car a share can guarantee for him an acceptable annual profit. that is what we should draw people attention to by media , we should not call for directing( on the governmental level ) on the contrary it should be on the private sector, which is part and parcel of our national economy. We have to understand that the random consumption in purchasing more and more new cars is not only waste for our economic individual capabilities , but also the basic reason for expenses' increasing that these cars needs to be served . These expenses that public sector takes upon its self, although it is working hard to find out the suitable resources to handle the individual income's problem.

I think I should speak here about the effective connection between traffic and media, which should value well the traffic policeman who is suffering from the income's weakness and needs to some evaluation from people. Media can in all different sorts and means perform its traffic economic duty through clarifying the good treatment way between people and this

183

traffic man in some television serial or our educational books. It can also show a short movie or a related commercial advertisement before showing the original one in cinemas, we can make a propaganda for biscuit or gum carried by a Youngman who is asking that traffic man where he can throw the empty tin or showing one driver who is trying to pick up a paper that is thrown by his son with presenting his apologize for his next traffic man. We can also dedicate him some books include a cultural information and some studied directions about the best practicing of their career, in addition to some directed libraries in order to make them acknowledge the damages that may harm our national economy as a result of any neglect . how lovely if we grant reward (material and vacancy ) for any traffic policeman who prepare a good traffic research by allowing him to be an officer because a lot of them are intelligent and experienced enough, but they were unlucky to continue their study and had the traffic officer's needed certificates.

I want to mention that the material factor is very essential in traffic economic reformation since traffic man is exposed to many seductive that affect his vocational behavior. The best way here is adopting the financial reward's principle according to the benefit we get from applying any traffic man suggestions, so each one in the traffic group, which are located in a special area, will enhance himself and themselves to create a practical mental creation in order to get benefit of the saved money of the avoided damages and vice versa. The best thing he can do here is to decrease the engine's damages on environment by using special uncovering set on the combustible matter or asking the cars' agencies to put their cars in the specific place to examine them. This way helps us in decreasing these damages in this atmosphere, which has a lot of cars and little services. To sum up, adopting the encouraging financial manner is better than getting this benefit in a way increase the economic damages.Since this traffic condition is the same in all Arab counties, I think we should alternate the traffic experts (the Syrian traffic policeman works in Egypt for a while and vice versa) and make some related courses in one Arab country. We can also build up an Arabic high institute for training them on the principles that are adopted in big industrial countries, and creating one Arabic factory to provide all the traffic requirements as traffic lights, uniform and setting the civilized traffic system such as using the observation cameras and computers. I want to end this research about this traffic policeman by confirming that taking care of him is very important matter for the economic reformation.

Solving the problem of transportationEvery decision we take should be studied well (its positive or negative results, its side reflections and its possible utility ...), otherwise we will have to take an opposite decision after a short while. Take the decision of giving work to thousand of small microbus in all our different villages and cities as a substitution of the internal transport company. After a short period we found that these microbus positions are unhealthy to take another decision of removing them in big cities to be substituted by another buses…. In the mean time we do not know if there are new coming decisions in the near future.

I have been told lately that a "cars" corporation has declared of a bid to import 600 buses for ministry of transport to serve the internal transport instead of the present vehicles. Here, I have to ask the related authorities: does the decision of microbus come as a result of the failure of internal transport company? Did the capabilities of our road juncture able to absorb this big number? Why they do not exploit the needed money of this project in other productive one? Have they done a referendum (formally) about the individual opinion of this matter? The most important question here is: did these authorities think of the social problem that may happen when those microbuses' drivers become jobless especially that they sustain

184

Page 185: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

thousand of families? Then did they study the capability of getting benefit of these presently microbuses or where are going to be recruited? Dose our savings of foreign currency allow us to spend 50 million dollar within five years? There are so many questions need to be answered, but I think this decision's involvers are unable to answer.

Since I ask these entire important questions, I think I have to present some suggestions as solution for this transport problem. In my opinion, we should start to execute Metro project which can decrease the volume of cars' importing and consequently their required huge money, taking in consideration that population's growth is definitely fallowed by increasing the required services which transportation is its most important one. However, executing this project should be preceded with preparing the required related plans and studies and finding inside or outside financing means. Here, we can get benefit of this vital sort of transportation- as the civilized countries did- by making a contract with advertisement and propaganda companies to set their advertisings in and out metro's trains or inside the stations and related roads .

Now, till we have this metro I think we can make some educational courses for microbuses' drivers about the best treatment with passenger and traffic policeman with imposing special stations for their microbus big numbers and building up special stopping building for every bus walking. we can use any microbus as a mean of advertisement and the revenues these advertisement go to ministry of transport in its supporting to the metro project, we can, moreover, try to build up joint-stock companies from these microbus owners to observe their work in order to make the treatment of ministry is restricted with board of directors of these companies not with that big numbers of drivers. The government here should provide gas stations instead of present gas oil and decreasing the customs with offering the free transport service for its departments' employees.

So, we can resort for those previous procedures till we execute the desired metro project, which can stop wasting of 50 million dollar as a price for 600 new buses. This sum could be invested in another productive or serviced project helps in providing new job opportunities for plenty of unemployed.

The common touristy transport The decision of restricting the activity of the common touristy companies has made a great disconcertion about these companies future, which their contributors are from different social classes; it will cancel all the confirmed contracts of the long term rented cars – end of 2001- .We all know that these companies are made to activate the touristy work in Syria by allowing them to import cars for the aim of rent; their numbers were so limited before ordering the investment law number 10. This law that easy the presence of more than 200 rent companies without any accurate study -according to the possible numbers of the renters- of their performance or presence.

Unstudied start We have created the common touristy companies to handle the lack our local market of new cars, organized taxi offices which lack any connection with hotels either by phone or even by wireless set. In addition to the lack of the system that impose on taxi's and its driver the quality conditions and the suitable distribution ; so we have to take these matters in our consideration before waging a war against those present companies and resorting for creating new ones.

185

Page 186: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

Here, I think that government should reconsider these projects and correct the system of the taxi's work in our county before thinking seriously in creating a common sector for touristy transport according to the investment law number 10.

Some procedures in the right direction I am – from a pure economic base – unconvinced of this idea unless the taken procedures for acknowledging the effects of the paid customs on these rented cars comparing with charges that tourist has to pay in our neighbor countries; beside the effects of these charges on the success of all the presented services for tourists in Syria. We should understand this problem and make a comparison between make these suggested companies available and their absence in the last ten years; so what is the benefit our local economy can get from this new situation or from rework of taxis' system.

I think that making this study was very important matter before taken the decision of creating touristy transport's companies in a legal framework. so, reconsidering the work system of taxis dose not deprive the government from the customs of the cars which have different panels and can be used by tourist or even by Syrian. The government here should free the cars importing process from the present ties and considering them a commodity like other ones in order to make the individual chooses the sort, color and specifications he wishes. This freeing, however, should accompany with the supplier company or factory commitment of opening a car's servicing center can provide the spare parts and the technical services – after selling service - . So, since the circulation volume of cars is forming a big economic power as part of our national wealth, we should keep it well and use it for developing other economic wealth such as truck, tourist bus and the pickups that are used for transporting goods.

Gradual solutionsAll what I talked about previously is related to the present problem of the common tourist cars; this problem which has three sides: companies, government and the renters themselves who are obliged to end their contract at the end of 2001. So, who could we reach to proper solutions for all sides? How we could use correctly these cars since their cost had been paid from our local currency which had been transferred to a foreign one? Here, I can present these possible solutions:

1- in case of paying any car cost to the owner : we can pay him a profit 10 % of its cost and installment plan for car's customs on the renter – these costumes usually equal the original cost for car – and after that its property becomes for renter.2- in case of renting car to a Syrian who has not pay its cost to the owner: here, either we should stop renting the Syrian citizen these cars or paying the customs, installment plan by making half of the cached charges goes to the survey and the other one goes for its owner; the customs should be considered according to the real cost for this car when it rented to that Syrian citizen. However, the question here is: what is the benefit of those consumption cars? I think we can substitute them by other custom new ones in order to solve this problem which caused by the government when it tried to develop the tourism sector, mean while in my opinion trying to open the door for new civilized renting companies with granting them the characteristic of importing the suitable cars is the best solution for this case.

Finally , we should not restrict these companies work to handle just with hotels , airports and tourist offices , but we can spread in building them by making these companies contain special department for every sector of renting types; this way avoid us the present situation of

186

Page 187: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

taxi and the behavior of their drivers with customers. Here, handling this subject from a material point of view is in vein because getting the tax is not important as the achieving of the big goals of this subject. So, we should set a plan to improve the transportation matter in Syria which is full of deadly mistakes have to be solved. I have mentioned the solution of railways which can provide a big amount of foreign currency as a price for small cars, auto cars, and the different sort and type of vehicles which cause a lot of damages upon our environment and economy as well. We have to remember always that the big breaks of entering cars to Syria and restricting this importing in (Aftomachine- Cars Corporation) is the basic factor for this abnormal market for new or even old cars.

The success of tourist marketing's investment Some officials believe that reforming economy can not be applied without calling for the Arabic and foreign investments through offering some new economic projects and holding the related meeting, symposium and lectures. We, however, lack the priority of these projects' success and lack the suitable factors or conditions for their progress and continuity. For more illustration, I can present this example from our daily life: (man opens a shop and make a big opening but when people come to the shop they find it empty, here he lost his credibility and fame in advance which he has to acquire through his good treatment with customers and through providing what they need in suitable time and price).

(The suitable time) matter is very important for the three parts: producer, customer and the one who practice marketing process which complete positively or positively the production one and both specify the productive outcome ; this outcome is connected with customer who takes the form of brokerage purchasing corporation or individuals in local or foreign markets. So, by an accurate study for all these conditions we can specify the economic utility for one project or even the total integral projects in other words the correct coherence in building up the relation between productive and customer through previous rings is making any project utility is certain in the last result .

How can we attract money for investment ? These thoughts seem very axiomatic, but we need to conform them when we touch on the connection between investment and economic reform. If we go back to our example of (shop owner) we find that he did a trouble mistake in applying not the priority and preference principle and studying not the successful marketing. In the same field the Kuwaiti delegation's members had said when they visited Syria in 2002 that we need to Syrian- Syrian dialogue to set the successful investment basis because they had a Kuwaiti- Syrian unsuccessful experiment and they do not want to repeat it due to the problems that still our economy suffer from.

So, we can depend on this unsuccessful experiment as a base for modifying the related decisions and instructions that obstacle the Syrian – Kuwaiti cooperation in, for example, the banking investment; relating this matter we can forming a common committee from the Syrian banking specialists and the representatives the banks that wish to open branches in Syria in order to facilitate the banking investment here in Syria. According to the Kuwaiti's point of view, banks should practicing the treatment with stocks, however it is an impossible matter without studying the marketing reality of the present factories and projects in order to replace the imported goods by their ones, which should be able to rival the global ones, in addition to specifying the priorities that must be available in the new factories according to

187

Page 188: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

the previous basis. So, after all these procedures we can issuing stocks which has become represent assets have an economic effective can seduce investors to buy their value.

To convince any Arabic or foreign investor in our country ability for investment we should start a comprehensive economic reform for all our economic reality at the hands of reformer economists believe that reform is a national duty we should work for. Depending on this, we can form special reform committees for every sort of our productions, every committee works on presenting a special report about its chosen products and their marketing problems then specify the possible solutions. We should not forget the necessity of creating an information bank; it is special for the projects that have positive economic utility for the investor and the invested country as well. Here, since any successful investment project should consider the production volume according to the local consumption and export the superabundant, the investors should study very well the available local or the required imported material raw that this project depends on. Furthermore, we should study this project position within other governmental present or planned developmental ones.

Finally, the investment process is a very complicated and fateful one, so we in Syria should try to discomfit not those who want to invest their money in Syria, however one Arabic businessman said in the conference that held in Damascus in 2002 : ( the Syrian security atmosphere , geographic location and natural resources are very attracted factor for investment , but these capabilities need to be programmed according to prepared scientific studies and researches in order to be as the guidance and direction for new successful investments )

General notices and suggestions In that conference the conferees had presented some suggestions, these are the most important ones:1- Making an Arabian economic integration to avoid the Arabian competition. 2- Working on get the Arabian money back that is invested in the European banks in

general and the American ones in particular.3- Trying to find out gradually a common Arabian market and make it the base in the

Arab world opening on the civilized industrial world. 4- Trying to create a union currency for Arab world can be adopted worldly as one of the

strong currencies.5- Creating marketing researches centers take upon themselves the responsibility of

taking the rival decision for each commodity any investor want to invest his money in producing and marketing it.

6- Facilitate all the obstacles that face the passing matter within the Arab world countries and between these countries and the world ones as well.

7- Reevaluate the present rules, decisions and instructions that are organize the investment in Arab world in order to favor the investment in any spot in the Arab world. In addition to that we can create an Arabian investment center able to coordinate the different rules of investment that are existed in all Arab countries.

8- Granting advantages for the Arabian investment on the Arabic lands.9- Trying to hire the Arabian hands on the Arab world's lands.

However, that conference has not take any serious action to apply some of these suggestions as for example to form a committee has in its membership a representative of every country has participate in. furthermore I think it is better if the conferees had discussed the Arabian economic integration instead of that elaborated ones about imposing a serious supervision on

the stocks works; so in my opinion there should be a council for central banks cashiers in the Arabian countries to observe these stocks, which should be covered with required bank guarantees .these guarantees that the bank never offer without specific guarantees avoid any possible cheat in any illusive stocks, in other words these guarantees care about making these stocks as real ones to make people come and invest their reserves calmly and peacefully .

Regarding the Arabia – Arabia treatment , this treatment's power dose not arise from conferences, symposiums and lectures , it arises from the active investment work according to special arranging rules or deals. So, the economists should not concern only in issuing statements that condemn Zionism and America because we all know that the successful economy is the perfect weapon to fight this Zionism country. this country wants to make our nation as a consumptive one by imposing upon us the normalization policy ,which is part and parcel of the globalization that is leaded by global Zionism .here, when Arabic world accept this policy , it will certainly loss its national and economic identity taking in consideration the strong relations between economy and homeland. to sum up, the Arabic businessmen should create what we call one Arabian chamber works on strengthen the Arabic economy identity by protecting the Arabian available from the falling in Zionist's hands and forget the thinking selfishly of their private investment in any project that guarantee him great profits . Additional suggestions

The Arabic countries can support their economy by getting utmost use of their natural treasures in making development tourist industry and of their geographic location between Asia and Europe; in addition to adopting the integration economic policy by producing not similar products to avoid ant possible competition within them. Here, Arab businessmen should adopt a clear policy in their treatment with other countries; they should support the national character of the Arabic economy against globalization which has become the modern treatment policy of the powerful economic countries.

You may ask this question: should we subject our economy to others' wishes? The answer is: if we produce according to our wishes and diligences, we would not achieve any success due to the rich countries needless for our products. So, to work according to benefits' exchange principle is forming a protection point against those rich countries that will definitely reconsider their decisions against the powerful and integral Arabic economy. This economy that is depended on tremendous oil wealth that could reach the Arab voice to the international political circles if they have an integrator oil policy. Take as an example when Iraq stopped pumping its oil for a limited period for political pressure against the biggest countries to stop the massacres of Israel on the Palestine occupied lands, other countries unfortunately work for increasing their pumping to compensate the happened lack. So, instead of being the weapon in the Arab hands, oil has weakened the Arabic attitudes due to their neglecting of its important role in supporting the national issues.

I want in that example to revel what we can do through managing our wealth and economy as well, so the first thing we have to do to protect our nation unity is adopting an integrator policy of the exported oil and specifying part of its value in supporting our economy; in addition to specify the currency sort and involved banks in the oil business to avoid any effect upon currencies within the exchange process. These actions strengthen the Arabic political attitudes in the international assembly and consequently help in ordering the international decisions that support our legitimate rights and also strengthen our technologic and scientific positions that increase the support of other positions in exchangeable action and reaction process. The best example here is united states of America that uses its scientific power,

189

which is financed by its economic power, to affect the whole world situations; the American companies have declined of presenting material raw for the European factories that deal with Syria and other Arabian countries, so it is natural to treat her as amerce treat us instead of saying of some Arabs: oil has not become an effective weapon any more.

Tourism, consumption and investment We mentioned before the importance of tourism in supporting the Arabic economy, the Arab businessmen conference- we also mentioned before- had suggested applying the concept of (tourist groups) which mean calling for tourists who wish visiting ancient monuments to visit Syria – Lebanon – Jordon till they reach Egypt, this way is a unique one and unable to be rivaled by other world countries. However, Arab world is still neglectful in this important industry that could bring him big investments and profits by hiring a lot of Arabic hands and activating the hotels' work. Arabs have all the required elements for active and dynamic tourism (beautiful nature and suitable atmosphere) these elements serve instead of loans or aids for building big touristy projects and also provide for us the required funds for more investments in other sectors.

We should try to increase the consumption standards through the touristy work to encourage the foreign investors on investment in the entire Arab world; this will consequently raise import volume which activates the consumption movement. This is what the Arab businessmen had been discussed in that mentioned conference, they manifest their fear of incompetence the present rules and the bureaucracy that accompany any new project. They discussed also subjecting not the economic utilities study to suitable economic standards and adopting not the priority policy in its makingا or even knowing their rival global position. This Arabic- Arabic discussion of course is expressing their wish in reforming this weaken Arabic situation which is resulted from the lack of investments. Here, no doubt that the foreign investor should feel of the new picture of the Arab world investment situation by providing them the variety they wish after making an elaborate study about preparing well the investment’s atmosphere. Moreover, the Arabian economic integration is one helping cure in attracting the foreign investor through making big industrial project on their lands; this integration achieve the Arabian economic balance instead of being subjected only to the investor will and consequently making the coherence between the Arabian people treatment within each other and with big industrial countries as well.

The Kuwaiti delegation had exposed the problem of unemployment in Syria and its effect on national income and production. They mentioned to the big danger that face the Syrian economy in case of preparing not those youths especially that their unemployment needs proper medicine which means additional expenses form a heavy burden on treasury . Here, I wish the Kuwaiti delegation took a cadastral map for the present economic capabilities and the possible cures whether they are in the developmental plans or not because there is no real effective development without reforming reality; in other world we exist reasons for this spreading of unemployment before building up the projects that comprise unemployed and consequently we are in this case increasing unemployment rate as a result of the big expectation of these projects’ importance in handling this problem . So, it is better if we build up cure projects for this problem to set the suitable person in the suitable place then entering our developmental plans in these gradual steps. Here, I would like to assure that walking in the reform road is the only mean that attract in and out investments because it is forming the guarantee for getting back their invested money; any true intention of investing in Syria should be accompany with a real work of self’s reform. We have a power economy, but we need to use our minds to react the educational and intellectual workers minds with the

190

Page 191: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

unemployed ones in order to activate their minds and consequently helping in putting down the unemployment phenomenon.

Relating to this subject , we should adopting the priority principle in making service and productive industrial projects and working on decreasing the import policy by creating a local rival product . In addition to that we should redistribution hands correctly in a way helps us in achieving our administrative goals (suitable person in the suitable place) and also building up an informational bank for successful productive industrial projects to avoid any cheating in building any new economical projects in our route for reformation.

This reformation process is just a small part of the ones I have mentioned in order to have the needed suitable reform basis for attracting investments. I think it is very useful if we expose these reformation plans on in and out questionnaire to be able to achieve the best economic reform because going to reform (even it is very slow one) is better than subjected to other international reform systems. That is the case if we obliged to enter the globalization, which one of its most important principle is to interfere economically in others economies to make the strongest economies are the controller on other ones; that is what we notice today of the required condition from Arabian countries if they wish to conjoin to the global commerce organization.

Mr. Moumtaze Nahas

Regarding your so many letters that have been enclosed with copy of certificate of getting on scientific title, and your asking for releasing a membership card that have the new title, in addition to your letter to merchants about the essential issues and economical problems- in your opinions- and wasting the members' time instead of studying the economical matters. I would like to inform you of the board of directors decision in the meeting that is arranged on 18/4/1998 that is an apology for responding to your request since the chamber is not a authorized scientific council for equalizing scientific certificates, you should know that there is only one special committee for this action in Ministry of Education.I would like also to draw your attention that members are sparing no efforts in fallowing up the subjects that are important for their colleagues, they grant in their time for studying the trade issues and handling all those essential matters.I want here to confirm that we are trying to apply the directions of our dear president for the advantages for all the economic family' members, so I hope from colleagues to bring up not the subjects that we are not authorized to concern in.

Dear Sirs

Regarding your letter no 792/13/s -3 date 16/5/1998

I agree with you that the board of directors is not the authorized body in this case since I am originally had not ask this boards to examine this matter .

So, what is the paradox here?

194

Page 195: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

The executive institution of chamber is measuring in two standard, it accept the title (doctorate) from me and other members without any need for discussing this title on board of the chamber for voting, while it now ask to discuss the title (professor) in board to take its opinion unlike the usual habit that is adopted by chamber of commerce and other global ones as well.

Regarding that this subject is a special opinion, I wonder why one of general authority's member bring up this subject in the last session, on the other hand the big volume of this problem which is 50.000 ration breach cases half is transferred to the military court is out of my special opinion; do the objectors on this problem is just me or there are other merchants?

We all work according to our dear president principles that depend on courage in our claim in our rights with clarifying things scientifically and rationally. I present for that reason to you – as you request – in a free opinion relating the interior trade to be published in our periodical magazine. Hoping to here from you

At last I would like to thank board of director that return my request without accounting the body that waste its time, here I want to mention that I respect and prize each one of them since they are my colleague in my long commercial life that start since 1954 before they acquire their positions, I hope from them just to think about those who have not the chance to reach to that position to defend their points of view.

I enclose here for you the list of the subjects that are ready for publishing, hoping from you to present it to on board of editors of economic report to choose what it finds suitable since it is the entitled body of choosing what suits publishing.

I would like to seize the opportunity to clarify the following:

1- Mr. Kassan Qalaa, the chamber's vice chairman, have declared in the last annual meeting of general authority that he written subjects volume is disagree with the possibility of publishing them in economic report.2- You have shown your opinion in this meeting, you are ready to publish these subjects after shorten them in order to comply with the request of chairman of committee.

Page 203: route to economic ref… · Web viewTHE ROUTE TO ECONOMIC REFORM. PROF. MOUMTAZE NAHAS. 2004. Dedication. To the first pioneer in the movement of development, modernization and reform.

4- I wish I could deal with information committee in transparency and frankness not through those meeting of chamber board of directors; this is the relation I would like to prevail between chamber members and general authority ones.

5- Why general authority had taken its decision after my leaving not in my presence where I can defend my opinion especially about the economic subjects that handle their special problems, its agenda moreover was not including this subject and its members were not psychologically prepared to study this subject well.

6-as a confirmation of what be mentioned in your previous letter, I do not find any necessity to waste the chamber time to inform me about the information and researches committee competence , it is better when a special authority study the contents of my economic subjects and comment on their competence.

7-if the committee has read my subjects, why it has not made a justified answer instead of informing me about their competence through chamber board of directors, the chamber that enjoys in complete freedom in action of what it likes about what any member wants to express in its economic report. I hope from you to open new page depends on the brotherly treatment within all chamber and general authority members to avoid the disagreement of knowing the priority of committee in taking the right decision. How lovely if I was invited to one of its meeting to utilize of this committee opinion for modifying my style in writing economic subjects.

Thank you in advance

This book is considered the basic brace that we can depend on for discussing our economic reform. We should go deeply in searching about the reasons of the problems that we suffer from; this is what I tried to do in this book, I tried to reveal the committed mistakes and also the failure& unawareness that cause these mistakes. I do hope from all honest people to read this book because it is very helpful for any economist wants to make a decision about all what he has on his table study, can he applies his scientific stored in them? Or can he harmonize between the theoretical and practical cases by neglecting neither of them? In this case he could be prepared to be a successful businessman.

This book also is indicating on the necessity of modifying our scientific and practical curriculums by forming an acquired civilized base to be as a core for going ahead towards the economic reform route.

I want finally to draw your attention to that this book has been formulated without resorting to any reference, it is the results of cumulative practical, economical and scientific experiences of so long years.
