Economy poorly run

By The Standard | Nov. 26, 2010

ZIMBABWE’S fundamental challenge with regards to economic development lies in that the laws that govern the way we do business are too shallow and narrow minded.

We run the economy like it is a rural store. Commercial practices that are supposed to be basic in any economy are disregarded as imperialistic and colonial. Business and politics are like sisters, yet there are also boundaries to which the one must not influence the other.

Runga,Harare.
