[ToloNews] 2.7 million tons of coal were exported in the last 10 months, according to figures provided by the Ministry of Finance.

The ministry's information indicates that the export of coal earned more than 12.5 billion afghanis in customs revenue.

"In the first ten months of 1400 (the solar year), nearly 948,000 tons of coal were exported, from which 1 billion and 893 million Afghanis were received as customs income, but in the first ten months of 1401, nearly 2.7 million tons of coal were exported through the customs of the country, from which 12 billion and 143 million afghanis were received as customs income," the Ministry of Finance said in a statement.

"In the past, the price of coal was 15,000 a ton, but now it is 12,000," said Nadimulhaq, another coal seller.

#3  Somebody should arrange a trip for Greta to 'splain why that's bad for the rest of the world.

I'd contribute $20 to her one-way ticket.

#2  Joe Biden’s economic figures might look good against year 1400 production levels as well. We’ll have to ask the Iroquois Nation for a PowerPoint.
