Telecommunications The following paragraphs delineate the number of landline and cell phone subscribers in Iraq, and compare them to pre-war estimates. The chart below shows the number of active landline subscribers in April 2003, the current number of active landline subscribers, the number of landline subscribers reinstated post-conflict (since May 2003), and the number of formerly active landline subscribers who remain without service (excluding the three Northern governorates). Source: CPA Senior Advisor to the Minister of Communications Iraqi Telephone and Postal Company [ITPC] Since May 2003, CPA has reinstated landline telephone service for 208,335 subscribers nationwide. The three major cell phone companies in Iraq (Asia Cell, Iraqna, and Atheer in the North, Central, and South respectively) continue to enroll new cell phone subscribers. Cell phone subscribers total 461,183 nationwide. Currently, in Mosul, Sulaymaniyah, and Kirkuk, there are 188,788 cell phone subscribers. In Baghdad, there are 195,000 cell phone subscribers; and in Basra, Al Kut, Amarah, Samawah, and Nasiriyah there are 62,395 cell phone subscribers. Sana Tel, which operates in Sulaymaniyah, has 15,000 subscribers. There are now 790,935 active landline telephone subscribers in Iraq, compared to 833,000 subscribers pre-war. The total number of telephone subscribers in Iraq, including the cell phone subscribers, is 1,252,118, which is 50.3 percent greater than the number of active landline subscribers pre-war. Cell phone service was very limited pre-war. The penetration rate (the number of active landline telephone subscribers as a percentage of the population) is 2.91 percent vs. 3.1 percent pre-war (using an estimated population of 27,139,021 according to the Iraqi Central Statistical Organization 1997 Census, (assuming 3% annual growth)). The following chart shows the percentage of operational landline telephone subscribers compared to the number of active subscribers in April 2003.

Improve Quality and Access to Healthcare Develop health care organizations, management, and infrastructure; Train health care professionals; Secure system; Public health; Pharmaceuticals logistic support; Strategic communications The Minister of Health approved an $11.5M emergency drug purchase marking the second phase of a program to reduce the occurrence of shortages of critical pharmaceuticals across the country. IV. Improve Quality and Access to Housing Increase financing, housing supply, and private ownership; Establish and train Ministry; Repair roads and bridges The Ministry of Housing and Construction held its transition ceremony on June 24. V. Provide Food Security for all Iraqis Enhance capacity of Ministry of Agriculture; Assure supply of inputs; Strengthen research system; Ensure adequate stocks for Public Distribution System (PDS); Monitor food security; Hand over administration of system in the North; Initiate reform of rations basket; Environmental initiatives This chart shows the current PDS stocks and scheduled commodity arrivals as a percentage of total requirements from the end of May until transition on July 1. The CPA goal is to provide sufficient ration stocks for July, plus a three-month buffer. On the graph below, 100 percent of opening stocks in each commodity category indicates that this goal has been achieved. CPA has procured substantial additional shipments of most food basket commodities, however these are not shown, as these shipments will arrive after July 1. Source: CPA Food Security Team Note: Oil for Food (OFF) unconfirmed contracts are those for which a valid letter of credit exists but no shipping documentation has yet been received by the Oil for Food Coordination Center. As OFF contracts are fulfilled they are replaced by the Ministry of Trade (MOT) and World Food Program (WFP) procurement. This chart represents the information above but in days of supply, based on the goal of a three-month buffer stock by July 1. The line represents the current goal status of 90 days. Source: CPA Food Security Team Both wheat and rice stock levels are above 30 days, excluding the national wheat harvest. The MOT has concluded contracts with two Iraqi firms and a Turkish firm to supply 200,000 mt of flour in July and August. This is the wheat equivalent of about 25 days supply as a safeguard against deteriorating security. Three berths are now operational at Umm Qasr with a combined off-load capacity for wheat in excess of 15,000 mt per day. This exceeds our goal of 12,000 mt per day. Tenders for procurement of all commodities needed through the end of the year including the three-month buffer are completed and will be issued by MOT in the coming weeks. The new Minister has decided to complete that procurement as quickly as possible WFP training in Dubai on a new satellite radio-based inventory management program is completed and will be implemented in the coming weeks. A logistics cell modeled after WFP Rome is being equipped in anticipation of MOT employees returning from training in Rome in mid-July. VI. Restore Economically Strategic Transportation Infrastructure Enable the Iraqi CAA (Civilian Aviation Authority) to run a civil aviation system, which will support the country's air transport needs; Enable Iraqi Port Authority (IPA) to administer a port of call with intermodal capabilities and inland container distribution; Enable Iraqi Railroad Railways (IRR) to provide domestic and international passenger and freight capabilities; Reform Civil Service at Ministry of Transportation (MoT) Along with the Ministry of Transportation (MoT) Senior Advisor, the Minister attended a Ports Task Force meeting and the first meeting of the Basrah Airport Council to discuss ports and airport transition to civilian control in southern Iraq. A contract was awarded for security services at Baghdad International Airport (BIAP) to include terminal, airside, perimeter and patrol security. After several weeks’ notification, the 447 Air Expeditionary Group suspended fueling operations for Royal Jordanian Airlines at Baghdad Airport as the airline failed to complete the necessary forms to secure fueling by the military. SkyLink, the normal fuel provider, has contaminated fuel that cannot be used for aviation. The Senior Aviation Advisor secured fuel for Royal Jordanian’s flights. The Government of Italy has funded a project to install a real-time network of automatic weather stations with remote data acquisition, two marine stations for the port of Al Faw and Al Badr and a control center including a Meteosat MSG primary data receiving and processing station plus airmet stations for Mosul and Al Basrah airports. Since much of it was destroyed in the war, presently, the Iraqi Meteorological Organization has no climate monitoring and forecasting capability. The project will be implemented by the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences and Climate in Bologna, Italy. The Aviation Team met with representatives from the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and to draft new air traffic procedures post military withdrawal at BIAP. The Aviation Team and U.S Air Force members met with a member of the United Kingdom Royal Air Force (RAF) in Basrah. The team reviewed options for transition of air traffic, meteorological and fire fighting services from RAF to Iraqi civil authorities. Parties will research resource and liability concerns. Members of the MoT Aviation Team attended a meeting regarding airspace and air traffic control transition at BIAP. Representatives from the Coalition Air Operations Center, Baghdad Approach and Baghdad Radio attended. The Program Management Office (PMO) announced a contract award for 120 new double-platform container wagons for the Iraqi Republic Railways. Repairs to a pier on the Latifiya Bridge continue. Bridge wreckage has been removed from the water below, and half of the waterway has been filled to allow work to be done, one span at a time. Repairs are anticipated in the mid-July time frame. The last shipment of the city buses donated by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) arrived in Baghdad from Kuwait. The total donation of $4.1 million is represented by 50 city buses and 23 over-the-road buses. The MoT has provided spare parts for the buses and movement logistics for their delivery. VII.
