The Syrian pound recorded a new decline in its value over the past week, as the exchange rate sometimes exceeded 2,500 pounds against one dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hamdo Ali, a resident of the countryside of Tal Tamr and an agricultural worker for one of the area&#8217;s farmers, says that living has become difficult, as all the materials are very expensive. \u201cWe do not know what the solution is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bulletins from the Supply Committee set the prices of all commodities on a daily basis, while the town\u2019s markets are witnessing stagnation in purchasing power as a result of the high prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barzan Yunus, a shopkeeper in the center of Tal Tamr, blames the Supply Committee for not following up on price control. However, Yunus pointed out a defect that affects bulletins, as sometimes exchange rates change prices over a matter of days or even on the same day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u201cA few days ago, I bought an amount of sugar at a price of 18,000 Syrian pounds (SYP) for a bag of 10 kg, according to the supply price, but today&#8217;s bulletin asks me to sell the material for 16,000 SYP, and this will cause me losses,\u201d Yunus added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a voice message from one of the administrators of the Supply Committee in Tal Tamr sent to a WhatsApp group that includes town shopkeepers, the administrator stated that everyone is required to adhere to the prices of the bulletins issued, and any violations will incur a fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to officials in the Supply Committee, any violation of the pricing of the materials necessitates a fine twice the amount of the violating material found within the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In turn, Mahmoud Ja\u2019alo, an official in the Supply Committee in Tal Tamr, said that the fluctuation of the dollar price makes the issue of daily price control very difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ja\u2019alo also criticized the people\u2019s lack of cooperation regarding submitting official complaints that help the Supply Committees to identify the violators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He told North Press that the office of the Supply Committee was opened in the town seven months ago, and &#8220;we have not yet registered a single official complaint from the residents about price manipulation.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reporting by Delsoz Youssef<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Residents in Tal Tamr, north of #Syria\u2019s Hasakah, blame the Autonomous Administration&#8217;s Supply Committee for not tightening control over the markets, despite the price discrepancy among shops affected by the high dollar exchange rate. #AANES<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":49843,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-49842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-economy","category-syria"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
