Behold the shock & surprise of the market when #CurrencyZW (for now officially called ZiG or ZWG) - when 80 Samora Machel Avenue, (also known as 93 Leopold Takawira Avenue), & Mgandane Dlodlo Building declare it sole legal tender within, say 15 months! That's me being conservative as usual. Could be earlier. A nice Independence Day present to them-the-people of the Republic! If not, how about a Heros' welcome!
RBZ is in talks with the Treasury to facilitate the repeal of legislation that sets a 2030 deadline for the use of foreign currencies...

2022: A lunch walk along Sam Nujoma Street, Harare. Every yr since then, I fight the temptation to merely insert "Discuss" under this pic for one of the compulsory questions in their exam. Schumpeterian creative destruction! Happy Sabbath🌍. #NoBorders

1999, Msiteli Sec Sch. Absolutely enjoyed teaching them! Took them from Form 1. A few are CAs scattered in the world like typical Zimbos🇿🇼. Boarding from Sir Seretse Khama International🇧🇼 recently, one spotted me & I was spoiled to chocolates & a rather expensive bottle! #NoBorders
Cecil John Rhodes, some of his books and fleet! This & more at Rhodes Nyanga Museum – National Trust of Zimbabwe🇿🇼 share.google/EcVIqIbqmPvnr7P… #NoBorders
The long awaited ZIMPREST didn't take we-the-people to the Promised Land! What happened? Looking back is looking forward. #NoBorders
Sometimes numbers miss the point in Economics esp. in economies such as almost all of these. The answer to why becomes obvious with some bit of reflection, disinterestedly. The Global South of Economics. #NoBorders
As a young analyst back then, that ever high PE ratio never quite made sense to me until I toured her plantations & factory in Chipinge🇿🇼: Tanganda. #NoBorders

"Spinweave's Annual Report raises the question of whether the Zimbabwe Government actually wants a domestic textile industry." Looking back is looking forward. #NoBorders
Zimbank, a member of Zimbabwe Financial Holdings, Finhold. What a brand! ... & you know why I threw in the Intermarket Stockbrokers research note: Transnational. Hokoyo! #financialhistoryZW #NoBorders

I remember the day I planted this Japanese Oak 17 years ago. It had 93 leaves. I checked it every so often. It must be a Big Tree now if still there - with a welcome shade in this heat. They could be sharing wonderful stories under it, that was the point. Who planted it? Who cares! A long run calling. #MasiyePhambili #NoBorders
