@AFGCentralbank To address AFN & USD cash shortage (1) remove restrictions on domestic transfers as it will ease the pressure on AFN; 2) remove restricT on internt'l transfers as it will reduce domestic dmd for USD cash. Let banks to work out with their correspondent banks abroad

[Omar Joya @joyacabolitae]

Banking restrictions imposed by @AFGCentralbank have disrupted supply chains & halted flow of money & goods. Retailers & wholesalers are running down inventories, & food shortage will arise soon. Banking restrictions to be immediately resolved to prevent deepening crisis

[Omar Joya @joyacabolitae]

If Taliban appointees in @AFGCentralbank do not act immediately to address current restrictions on internat'l & domestic transfers, soon the econ will plunge into irreversible depression. Traders cant make payment 2 their suppliers abroad to import food & other necessities.

[Omar Joya @joyacabolitae]

@aahmady former @AFGCentralbank governor's mismanagement of USD & AFN cash reserves & absurdly restricting commercial banks to access to their deposits with DAB prior to Kabul takeover led to the current banking crisis. Taliban are not to be blamed.
