1. Urgent message on Iraq TV saying that Maliki ordered the MOF to reduce his salary by 50% immediately, or by this month
2. Maliki receives over a million per month for his personal needs and body guards
3. He is trying to balance his salary with other GOI members
4. He instructed the MOF to put the savings into the 2011 budget
5. 90% of Iraq TV is covering Egypt. Maliki knows this. This action will cause the GOI to love him
6. The people will love him
7. Customs will go into effect on March 6th
8. If they collect taxes, then it can only mean they have a complete GOI before 3/6
9. Maliki is looking great now
With all that is happening in the middle east this is a smart decision. Maliki can't afford bad press. He needs to get the parliament to approve his ministers and announce complete formation of government. Then do something constructive and beneficial for the Iraqi citizens such as RV the currency. Put people to work rebuilding infrastructure!
