Progressive Teachers Union Leader, Takavafira Zhou says
wage increase negotiations with government are not making progress. The real
big surprise is that Zhou actually expects a pay rise.
The trouble here is that the civil servants are being led
by individuals like Takavafira Zhou who really have got the foggiest idea what
is happening. Zhou is just as incompetent as Morgan Tsvangirai they may just as
well have fed from the same breast!
Zimbabwe is broke; years of gross mismanagement,
corruption and looting have destroyed the country's economy. Mugabe's reckless
spending in the last two years to rig the elections was the last straw that
broke the camel's back. And yet people like Zhou are still expecting government
to increase the civil servants' wages. The government does not have the money
to pay even half the wages; only an idiot can therefore be talking of a wage
rise.

“Sources in the security sector told the Zimbabwe Independent (13 Dec 2013) this week government has of late been buying equipment for the security sector, which now plays a critical role in propping up President Robert Mugabe and Zanu PF in power, which includes anti-riot gear and equipment, trucks and armored vehicles.”
“On Monday, government took delivery of vehicles worth millions of dollars”, reported the paper.
Mugabe is turning Zimbabwe into a Police State, the North Korea of Africa.
@ Yepec
The people of Zimbabwe have made many mistakes but buying into "the Zanu PF Manifesto story" is not one of those mistakes. The people of Zimbabwe did not vote for Mugabe or Zanu PF, the dictatorship rigged the whole electoral process. The mistake the people made was to believe Tsvangirai and people like you Yepec's nonsense that the country was going to have free and fair elections WITHOUT implementing the democratic reforms.
As a people, we need to find our way out of this mess and one of the first steps in doing this is face up to what we did wrong and learn from it. People like you Yepec and Tsvangirai are not helping in this process by falsifying the past! If you lot are not going to apologize for your breath-taking incompetence then shut up!
@ Yepec
First things first, Tsvangirai and MDC failed to implement the reforms not even one reform after five years in the GNU. Without the reform is was a given that the elections would not be free and fair. So are you now telling us Tsvangirai and MDC did this deliberately so that the people would "rebel and fight the theft of the elections". What a stupid argument!

Mugabe and Zanu PF's rule is on its last legs. After 33 years of gross mismanagement, rampant corruption and looting; it is now clear that this is simply unsustainable! The ordinary people have suffered greatly and hundreds of thousands have died; the cup is full and overflowing. Enough is enough, the regime must go!
Durani Rupozo is spot on, the issue of "trust" is the key to getting the Zimbabweans in the diaspora to buy government bonds. The only way to restore that trust is by restoring the right of these people's right to a meaningful vote. It has to be a meaning vote in a free, fair and credible elections and not the rigged vote we saw in July 2013!
The ordinary Zimbabweans within her borders were not an better off than those in the diaspora when it came to elections - the latter were outright denied the vote whilst the former were denied the vote by the various vote rigging tactics by Mugabe!
