One of the positive things is that what is called the legal person of the industrial and economic community which has recently managed to participate positively in making events after it went beyond the stage of participation in opinion. However, there are several negative aspects that are no less significant than those positive points. They have even become a danger that threatens the positive aspects themselves. This is represented in the random activities and the negative practices which some people still do whether in the commercial or industrial field in view of the high return turned through the practice of unknown activities, including marketing and producing adulterated or bad goods or re-manufacturing the old and used components.“
