Afghanistan - The Importance of Dollars
I am actually curious about a official taxation infra structure. Can you talk through a little bit about how the government of afghanistan, pre talaban, engaged in a tax collection? We collected around 200 billion ask so let's call that about two point seven billion dollars of domestic generation. And most of the revenue would come from either tax receipts, so business men and individuals who were taxed, or through customs. I was taken aback that it was a one off decision or it wasn't even a process trogh, which they said they would send less. At this stage, we are still thinking, even medium term. Were not thinking that the government will fall on sunday.
