According to Zimbabwe’s president, Robert Mugabe, in his annual state of the nation address given yesterday in Harare, “he said in the past year Zimbabwe has moved towards ‘sustained economic recovery notwithstanding the suffering endured by many of our people.’”
That’s good. If you believe him. Zimbabwe’s official inflation is given at around 8,000% — the highest in the world. And, last week, the country’s chief statistician said there were no longer enough goods in the shops for him to work out the inflation rate.
