If Zimbabwe wishes to retain its independence – all calls for recapitalisation using foreign money must be refused. Zimbabwe must rebuild its economy with its own money.

As this money must be credible – I can not see that this can issue from Gideon Gono. As a first step – the Reserve Bank must be reigned in – and the monetary system returned to ‘free-banking’.

Perhaps the private banks can create some credible Zimbabwean money. The best idea – the return of natural Zimbabwean money — gold!
