this isn't the making of a horror movie finding cockroaches destined for the dinner plate and the use in medicines. i've been fizzling let's do business zimbabwe is celebrating independence day but no one celebrating the economy thirty nine years of independence from colonial rule and public anger is only growing over president. was failure to revive the economy for a long ruled left it in ruins and the situation is still a catastrophe ninety percent unemployment and perennial food shortages following the seizure of land from white commercial farmers two decades ago zimbabwe was still able to achieve economic growth of close to three and a half percent last year but the outlook for this year is very different the international monetary fund for costs mine is five point two percent is a lack of funds for investments how the anyone is prepared to lend to zimbabwe

rapid inflation would eat that away anyway just a year ago inflation was in check but it's shot up to almost fifty seven percent and the situation is getting worse by the day the un reckons over five million people are in danger of starvation well zimbabwe is trying to get back its white farmers many of whom moved abroad long ago some are now suing south africa for helping the gobby to suppress their case for compensation let's talk about that and the economy with privilege here in the capital harare for us first of all zimbabwe's already offered white farmers some money for the investments they made on this seized properties but they want compensation for their land what's what's the chances what are the chances of them getting that from south africa.

their case that the putting in the south african courts it is difficult for them it's an up with task because you look at south africa itself right now it is going through the same process that zimbabwe went through true wanting to expropriate land without compensation so you find that yes they may approach this african courts but. for them to get a favorable judgment it is difficult to see that and the other issues that are going to south africa yes it has been there so that figure by then it supported the dissolution of the south africa the south in african tribunals courts which had a why did the white farmers. have betrayed you know for them to get compensation but then. how that judgment then would be implemented for them to get compensation for their land and even the improvement that they had done on the land

inflation is caused by an increase in money supply situation if you want to look at it it is because there are shortages that have been created by the sharp increase or fuel and this is had in effect across their war economy because businesses are now increasing prices especially if you look at this week people are crying foul because prices of commodities sharply. and even though the explanation is difficult to get even from economist and even government to say how is the justification of that sharp increase in duties even the president today when he was addressing the. gathering for didn't celebrations for independence the third tonight the celebration in the celebrations you mentioned that you know and they don't want to go the route of going to price controls they want market forces to

determine but it's difficult to control inflation because of the price of fuel. fun here in forests in harare thank you very much. now to some of the other business stories making news interests initial public offering has price the photo sharing platform above expectations of twelve point seven billion dollars it launched in new york with an initial share price above the original proposal interest claims hundreds of millions of users a decorate their pin boards with pictures of food fashion travel. amazon is pulling out of the chinese market the online retail giant is closing its interest internet store rather in china in july it's a significant setback for the company amazon has struggled to win over customers from local rivals and jaydee dot com. and the jury is minimum wages
