It’s somehow confusing,I think the south Africans should change the name of their country to some thing else maybe “wack” Africa so there woun’t be mis-understanding in this South or Southern Africa stuff.

Now that the Zimbabwean regime has allowed the use of foreign currencies in domest transactions, there’s hope for economy recovery (willingness to work).

Nope, as a South African referring to Zimbabwe as South African is defintely a no-no, especially with their economic meltdown and the consequential impact on South Africa – Southern African country is correct.

BTW, the inflation is officially 165 000% but according to independant sources it is now over 1000000 % (1 Million).

Thanks for the comment – I changed it to “Southern African!”
However I’m still thinking that South African was fine

Zimbabwe is not a South African country, South Africa is a country on it’s own. Zimbabwe is, however, a ‘Southern African’ country.

Now I can say Good Morning Roman Thats a little frustrating, all these people in America working so hard to become a millionaire. When all they have to do is move to Zimbabwe.
Post request Roman. Can you define “recession”? If I do it, it will seem like a political post. I’m with Switzerland on that one.

Why is Zimbabwe suffering from hyper inflation?

Do you know what kinda of prices Zimbabwe has right now? And is that 60 million Zimbabwe dollars even worth much with their inflation state?
