Barakat Park School

A school is an institution designed for the teaching of students (or "pupils") under the supervision of teachers. Most countries have systems of formal education, which is commonly compulsory. In these systems, students progress through a series of schools. The names for these schools vary by country (discussed in the Regional section below), but generally include primary school for young children and secondary school for teenagers who have completed primary education.In addition to these core schools, students in a given country may also attend schools before and after primary and secondary education. Kindergarten or pre-school provide some schooling to very young children .

Barakat Park Play Ground


A playground or play area is a place with a specific design for children be able to play there. It may be indoors but is typically outdoors (where it may be called a tot lot in some regions.)Modern playgrounds often have recreational equipment such as the see-saw, merry-go-round, swing set, slide, jungle gym, chin-up bars, sandbox, spring rider, monkey bars, overhead ladder, trapeze rings, playhouses, and mazes, many of which help children develop physical coordination, strength, and flexibility, as well as providing recreation and enjoyment. Common in modern playgrounds are "play structures" that link many different pieces of equipment.Playgrounds often also have facilities for playing informal games of adult sports, such as a baseball diamond, a skating arena, a basketball court, or a tether ball."Public" playground equipment refers to equipment intended for use in the play areas of parks, schools, child care facilities, institutions, multiple family dwellings, restaurants, resorts, and recreational developments, and other areas of public use.


Barakat Park Day Care Center


Day care or child care is care of a child during the day by a person other than the child's legal guardians, typically performed by someone outside the child's immediate family. Day care is typically an ongoing service during specific periods, such as the parents' time at work.The service is known as child care in the United Kingdom and day care in North America and Australia (although childcare also has a broader meaning).Day care is provided in nurseries or crèches or by a nanny caring for children in their own homes. It can also take on a more formal structure, with education, child development, discipline and even preschool education falling into the fold of services.Some child minders care for children from several families at the same time, either in their own home (commonly known as "family day care" in Australia) or in a specialized child care facility. Some employers provide nursery provision for their employees at or near the place of employment.


Barakat Park Security Services


Security services are state institutions for the provision of intelligence, primarily of a strategic nature, but also including protective security intelligence.Also they will provide security for business in the park and or for the single family homes and individual protection .


Barakat Park Fire Department


A fire department or fire brigade is a private organization that provides fire protection for a certain jurisdiction, which typically is a the park, or fire protection district. A fire department usually contains one or more fire stations within its boundaries, and may be staffed by career firefighters, volunteers, or a combination thereof.


Portables Homes, Offices, Storages

A new concept of Barakat Park is using old trailers and turning them into buildings. These buildings, such as homes, schools, storage space, and so on are very affordable, easy to move around, and may be designed to be aesthetically pleasing. Since they are so affordable and mobile they will be easy to use in disaster areas. As homes they will be available to low income households. Frequent movers will also appreciate the ease at which their home may be moved in its entirety. Cities can easily be created by lining up these trailer homes together forming comfortable neighborhoods. While they evidently provide a wonderful shelter some residents may be pleased to know that they may also be altered to fit their aesthetic preferences. They are equipped with windows and new paneling along with more elaborate decorative changes that add to the variety of a city. For many people a home is a very personal and sacred place as they wish to know that their family will have a comfortable and safe place to sleep at night. With the homes designed by this company we will be able to provide just that at an affordable rate. While these trailers are great for living space they are also very convenient for office space. Their portability make them very convenient for offices on the construction site. During the building of Barakat Park they may be used in such a fashion, moving to the next construction sites as needed. While their use on a big scale is evident, they may also be used for mini storage to individual homes or businesses. These former trailers may also be used for educational venues. While it may sometimes be difficult to find the transportation to schools, these affordable and portable buildings allow for the increase of schools located closer to residential areas. Virtually all businesses may take advantage of the space as well, weather they need a showroom for their products or a meeting place for businessmen. Their durability and size require low maintenance and they have the potential to meet everyone’s individual needs.

NewsIraq posted April 6th,2010Italian Group Will Build $4.6 Billion Port At Fao Close To Basra Iraq: An Italian group will begin construction in a months time on what will become Iraq’s largest shipping port, the Iraqi transport minister announced Monday.The facility at Fao, at the southernmost tip of the country, will be fed by a new rail line linking it to the Turkish border in the north, dramatically improving Iraq’s moribund transport infrastructure. Fao, which will be built by an Italian consortium, will be the biggest port in Iraq, Transport Minister Amer Abduljabbar Ismail said in a ceremony at Fao on the Gulf, 535 kilometers (335 miles) south of Baghdad.This project is part of a larger vision that we call a dry canal which will allow for transport of goods between the north and the south of the world quickly, cheaply and safely. An Italian diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the port will be among the biggest in the world. It will be able to handle the largest container boats and all kinds of huge tonnage vessels. The consortium will be led by Italian engineering firm Technical and will include other Italian construction firms partnering with the Iraqi transport ministry. Italy is going to (provide) training on port design, construction and management, as well as technical assistance and planning on industrial zones in the country which will be relevant for the activities of the port, the diplomat added.The 4.6-billion-dollar (3.4-billion-euro) project will be the biggest infrastructure project in Iraq in 30 years, and will be funded by Iraqi and foreign finance, both public and private. Once completed, Iraq hopes to compete with the Suez Canal which connects the Red Sea and the Mediterranean and through which more than 14,000 ships passed last year. According to the transport ministry, the huge 100-dock facility will have an annual capacity of 99 million tones. Fao, near the port city of Basra, was the site of fierce battles between Iraq and Iran during the two countries war between 1980 and 1988.


NewsAlstom Inks $2Billion Dollar Iraq power plant deal: French engineering group Alstom signed an initial agreement with Iraq to build a power plant that could cost up to $2 billion in southern Iraq, a senior French diplomat said on Thursday.French Ambassador to Iraq Boris Boillon said a final agreement between Iraq's Ministry of Electricity and Alstom, the maker of industrial power plants and high-speed trains, is expected to be signed before the end of the year.The steam power plant, which will be built near the southern oil hub of Basra, will add 1,200 megawatts of capacity to a country starved of power after years of war, sanctions and economic decline.The plant will consist of three oil-fired steam units, each with an output of 400 MW, Alstom said in a statement on its website. 'This is just the beginning for other power plant projects,' Boillon told Reuters.'The cost is under negotiation but it is between $1 billion to $2 billion,' he said, adding the project would need two to three years to complete.Iraq's available power capacity is about 9,000 MW, and installed capacity at 11,000 to 12,000 MW. Demand is estimated to reach 14,000 MW during summer when temperatures frequently exceed 50 Celsius.Seven years after the US-led invasion, Iraq's national grid still only supplies a few hours of power each day. Intermittent electricity is one of the public's top complaints.The memorandum of understanding includes work to revamp a 180 MW power plant which was built by Alstom decades ago, the French company said.Under the deal, Alstom will also supply and supervise substations in various locations across Iraq and will help train Iraqi technicians and engineers.Iraq's Oil Minister Hussain al-Shahristani, who has temporarily taken over the electricity portfolio, said the turn-key project will be on deferred terms.'This plant will contribute enormously in increasing power generation in Iraq,' Shahristani said on Wednesday at a news conference.The minister said Iraq's electricity consumption is expected to rise by 10 percent every year over the coming 20 years.'So Iraq needs power plants with 1,000 MW to 1,500 MW capacity each year for the 20 coming years,' he said. Iraq plans to boost power capacity to 27,000 MW in four years and would need to invest at least $3

billion to $4 billion per year to reach that target.

Funding for Iraq reconstruction:Funding of reconstruction efforts began with the creation of the Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Fund (IRRF) in April 2003. The IRRF is administered and funded by the United States. An initial allocation of $2.5 billion was made for immediate food, medicine and water relief.The Madrid Conference on Reconstruction held in Spain October 23,24, 2003 was organized by the United States to solicit donor pledges from the international community. About $33 billion in grants and loans were pledged. Of this, $18.4 billion was from the U.S. with another $5 billion from Japan, $812 million from the EU, $500 million from Kuwait and offers of loans from World Bank and the IMF amounting from $5.5 to $9.25 billion. Some countries pledged to reduce the debt that Iraq owed to them and to provide direct donations in forms such as food and fuel. The pledge by the United States was fulfilled in November 2003 by adding $18.4 billion to the IRRF.Much of the non-U.S. pledged money is managed through two additional funds that have been created under the facilitation of the International Reconstruction Fund Facility for Iraq. The funds are managed by the United Nations Development Group (UNDG) and by the World Bank. Twenty-six donor nations participate in this effort with total pledges, as of June 30, 2006, of $1.4 billion. The United States donates a small amount to these funds but does not control their disbursement.As of December 30, 2005 the UNDG and World Bank Funds had expended about $0.51 billion and $0.39 billion, respectively. The United States managed IRRF had expended about $11.4 billion as of March 2006.As of 2009, current spending in Iraq seems to have increased a bit with some consideration of new projects. Since March 2003,the figure has come to a tune of $50 billion (US Dollars) - as the amount appropriated by the US congress in relief and reconstruction. A new inspectorate under the office of Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR)is in place to oversee key essential areas of development. Among these include the establishment of new Iraq forces, creating a free market economy, and put the country on path to achieving an effective democracy. Among the most recent developments (January 2009), also include the initiative in effect to re-define the bilateral relationship between Iraq and the United states, as a way of facilitating "future reconstruction efforts".

By Aseel Kami Aseel Kami Wed Jul 28, 1:08 pm ET:BAGHDAD (Reuters) Worried about bombs and suicide attacks? Iraq has the solution for businessmen who want to invest but fear venturing into Baghdad's dangerous streets -- work and live in a mini-city right next to the airport.The major oil exporter has been struggling to attract much-needed investment to develop its infrastructure after years of militant bloodshed, under-investment and sanctions as many firms wait for security to improve.Overall violence has dropped significantly in Iraq since the height of sectarian warfare in 2006-07. But bombings and shootings are still occur regularly in Baghdad and elsewhere.While Iraq has signed eleven deals with global oil companies to develop its richest fields, projects outside the energy sector have rarely gone beyond aspirations. Lingering violence and political uncertainty, four months after an inconclusive election, are keeping most western investors on the sidelines.To persuade more investors to come, an Iraqi firm is planning to build a "village of businesses" next to Baghdad airport, a 30-minute drive from the city center, according to Shaker al-Zamili, head of the Baghdad Investment Commission.The mini-city will offer all amenities for businessmen to strike deals, showcase their products and chill out at night -- offices, hotels and apartments, banks, 119 shops, a petrol station, a car rental agency and even duty-free shops. And there will be restaurants, internet cafes and parks.The area, scheduled for completion in 3-5 years for $250 million, will also house offices of state investment commissions and branches of most government ministries to help investors."When a company comes to Iraq, instead of wandering, it could stay and deal with officials and get any information, any details it wants while staying there," Zamili said on Wednesday.Companies also could rent places for displaying products and services, he added.Of those brave enough to invest in Iraq despite violence so far, Iranian, Turkish and Gulf companies lead the pack, especially in Shi'ite tourism, housing and banking.The United Arab Emirates is the biggest investor in large projects, with total pledges of $37.7 billion, while Lebanon tops the list of investment deals below $1 billion, according to a report last year by Dunia Frontier Consultants.Reporting from Basra, Iraq — Los Angeles Time Aug,6,2010:Plainclothes security men wait in the lobby of the Mnawi Basha Hotel. Giant clocks advertise the time in New York and Dubai. A British man brags loudly on his cell phone that he has just closed a deal with the Iraqi government, then rushes out to a convoy of waiting cars, accompanied by a clutch of aides in business suits.The five-star hotel percolates with the ambitions and worries of barracudas looking to make a killing in southern Iraq's new boom market. Their words flip like a schizophrenic's from visions of dollars to disaster and back again."This is the time to be here," says an American with an oil services firm. "If you come next year, it'll be too late." Iraq has signed 11 contracts with foreign oil companies to raise daily production capacity from 2.6 million to 12.5 million barrels in seven years. But the massive endeavor unfolds against the backdrop of a government in paralysis, with deep-seated feuds among leading parties, a proliferation of clandestine armed groups and a powder keg of resentments just looking for a spark.

Housing Posted on 16 August 2010. Dr Sami Al Araji, chairman of Iraq’s National Investment Commission, has said the government has selected 35 international firms to build one million new housing units across the country, Arabic Al Sabah newspaper has reported.The firms were selected from 117 applicant companies, and are reportedly from U.S., Canada, Turkey, Spain, France, Germany and South Korea.The $50bn [60 trillion Iraqi dinars] project will include 244,000 units in the capital, Baghdad, 80,000 in Basra, and 100,000 in Mosul with the remaining units to be constructed in other provinces, including the Kurdistan region, according to population density. The project is expected to be completed within two years of signing the contracts, which is expected to take place within the next three months, Al Araji said.Rebuilding Iraq $72 Billion Budget Year 2010 Posted on 07 August 2010. Housing tops Baghdad’s growing to-do list, but as work begins on infrastructure ranging from airports to sewage plants, Iraq’s modest contracting capacity is being stretched to its limits, reports Gulf News.Iraq faces mounting reconstruction needs across its housing and infrastructure sectors, yet the country’s contracting sector is struggling to maintain momentum as increasing numbers of Iraqis clamor for homes.Large international contractors have their hands full in other parts of the region, and local players are finding it a challenge to procure equipment and materials to commit to project schedules. All this is slowing progress on key projects for which budget has already been made available.Iraq’s $72 billion budget for 2010 has earmarked 30 per cent of this spend for infrastructure and development projects and Baghdad has not been shy in promising large sums to flesh out its plans over the longer-term. It has, for example, pledged at least $150bn in total to develop infrastructure, agriculture, transport, telecoms, energy, entertainment and housing industries.However, the failure to form a government five months after inconclusive national elections isn’t helping things; obtaining licenses and approvals is proving a lengthy process in Iraq, as developers frequently complain.
