These are successful experiences that provided a positive model in the operations of The change was built on global performance rules and plans, and adopted standards of transparency, accountability and integrity, and reduced levels of bureaucracy and administrative and financial corruption.
Suggestions and Fixes

The Supposed Path Of Economic Reform
Sunday 13 February 2022 177 Yasser Al-Metwally There has been much talk about the paths of economic reform in a country rich in its wealth and poor in its services. Isn’t it time for correction? Let us draw an acceptable picture of a supposed and expected change in the course of economic reform, in a way that we can remedy the collapses that the country’s economy is facing due to the absence of rational performance in managing the economic file.
One of the priorities required to achieve a clear path of economic reform is to ensure that the next government’s program includes direct institutional building through the selection of a ministerial cabinet that includes competencies and specializations capable of implementing the requirements of sound institutional building and restructuring the state’s departments by placing the right man in the right place.
Institutional building requires serious laws that do not allow any decisions and procedures that hinder this structure, and these laws are among the duties of Parliament. Moreover, one of the requirements of reform is to reduce luxury expenditures for ministries and other institutions, including ineffective diplomatic missions.
This is what concerns an aspect of the administrative reform that must be achieved in advance and a correct start to restructuring government institutions and building them again according to specializations and placing the right man in the right place. The main task that the prospective government is supposed to undertake is to adopt clear policies in managing public money and eliminating waste and corruption by supporting and activating regulatory institutions, especially the acclaimed Financial Supervision Bureau.
It is useful here to point out that the current oil prices are encouraging to move towards a new path of reform through the development of a solid plan to revitalize and activate economic activity aimed at diversifying sources of income, and I think that this relates to revitalizing the productive sectors.
The financial abundance achieved as a result of the high oil prices requires directing part of it to enhance investment allocations while not expanding operating expenses, in addition to creating sovereign investment funds, in order to achieve the goal of properly managing money and achieve the desired development goals.
One of the challenges that the next government and parliament will face is how to deal with the advancement of human resources, by modifying the educational path and health services, in order to respond to the changes and requirements of the new era that occupies the entire world.
Perhaps the experience of Singapore in correcting the course of its economic reform is the best example to be followed, which through these concepts (ie setting priorities) has managed to become the third richest and advanced country among the world’s countries in various fields, so it is necessary to benefit from its outputs.
