7. Write for or Against ‘The Central Bank's Decision to Reduce LC Openings:

A Necessary Measure to Control the Dollar Crisis. 30
Sample answer:
In recent times, many countries have been grappling with a severe dollar crisis that
has had far-reaching implications on their economies. In response to this crisis, the
Central Bank has taken the bold step of reducing LC (Letter of Credit) openings.
While this decision may initially appear as a restrictive measure, it is, in fact, a
necessary step to control the dollar crisis and safeguard the overall stability of the
economy. I agree with this statement and describe with reasons.

One of the primary reasons behind the dollar crisis is the excessive reliance on
imports, which puts significant pressure on foreign exchange reserves. By reducing
LC openings, the Central Bank aims to curtail the import volume and reduce the
outflow of dollars from the economy. This move can help address the imbalance
between the demand and supply of dollars, thereby stabilizing the exchange rate and
minimizing currency depreciation.
Furthermore, by reducing LC openings, the Central Bank can prioritize the
allocation of limited foreign exchange reserves towards essential imports, such as
food, medicine, and vital raw materials. This ensures that the economy's crucial
needs are met, even during a dollar shortage, which is essential for maintaining social
stability and preventing any humanitarian crises.

Additionally, the decision to reduce LC openings encourages domestic production

and promotes self-reliance. By limiting imports, domestic industries are provided
with an opportunity to flourish and fill the market gaps. This can lead to the creation
of job opportunities, increased industrial output, and a boost in the overall economy.
Moreover, a thriving domestic industry reduces the dependency on imported goods
and enhances national resilience in the face of external economic shocks.

While it is true that reducing LC openings may cause some short-term

inconveniences and adjustments, it is crucial to recognize the long-term benefits of
this measure. By controlling the dollar crisis, the Central Bank is taking proactive
steps to safeguard the stability of the economy, protect foreign exchange reserves,
and promote domestic industries. The reduction in imports will lead to a more
balanced trade structure, laying the foundation for sustainable economic growth in
the future.

In conclusion, the Central Bank's decision to reduce LC openings is a necessary

measure to control the dollar crisis. It helps address the imbalance between the
demand and supply of dollars, ensures the allocation of foreign exchange reserves
towards essential imports, promotes domestic production, and fosters long-term
economic stability. While challenges may arise in the short term, the benefits of this
decision outweigh the drawbacks and pave the way for a more resilient and self-
reliant economy.
