He added, "The Cabinet agreed to authorize the General Director of the General Company for Ports of Iraq the authority to sign contracts with Daewoo to establish the Faw Port project."
And Nadhim added, "Fighting corruption is an idea with a central structure in the government, and the Anti-Corruption Committee has revealed many facts and took them to integrity."
"The government is carrying out a historic responsibility, which is to start reform, and the salaries of low-income employees did not affect much in the next year's budget," he said.
