It is a learning curve.Quite a long one it seems....

What do they complain about! They are all billionaires now!

Zim should invest in a good money printing machine

derek, Durham, uk

Too much outside interference in Zims affairs. If Zims want to slash their zeroes, let it be. Which banking system can cope with that amount of zeroes? What of the practicality of carrying around bundles of currency? Zim economy will be turned around one day. Have sanctions also played a role?

Davis, Manchester,

Whether you like it or not, Zimbabwe and its people were 1000 times better off as a colony than being totally destroyed by Mugabe and his henchmen.

I don't think anyone can seriously deny this, even if it is "politically incorrect" and inconvenient.

Cliff, Chonburi, Thailand

The only way out of this is to fix the price of more than 50% of goods, nationalise food and clothing production and sales. A few leanings towards communist principles for a few years will fix this. It cant get much worse can it?

Nayth Ona, Manchester, UK

john did you really want Zimbabwe to remain a colony forever????

temba, edinburgh, uk

I do'nt see how Zanu PF government can continue to rig and fix their currency. Surely it is valued at zero and not worth even the paper it is printed on. There has never been a government like this one. They cannot carry on without any income at all. Who is giving them bank credit? China? Barclays?

War Never Solved Anything In this World to date!!!!

In response to Lokesh, Delhi, India above "..if it means pumping in armed men.."
Zimbabweans don't need any war in our country neither do we foreign people advocating a war. Leave the negotiations to take their course. Give us space.

K Patel, Hre, Zimbabwe

They wanted Independence and voted in Mugabe not us so it's a problem of their own making

John, Salford, England

They are not addressing the core issue of their system going down the drain.
If zimbabweans cannot fix it, then UN needs to step in and save this country from anarchy. If it means pumping in armed men, material, money then so be it.

But we need to save the millions who live in zimbabwe.

Lokesh, Delhi, India

Slashing of zeros is not the solution Gono.The biggest zeros to be slashed is Mugabe and Msika.
We are tired of carrying useless notes everyday and more so we are charged rents and other bills in forex and to add matters worse we are paid our salaries in Zim Rubish dollars.

Themba , Bulawayo, Zimbabwe

Sounds like they are making it up as they go along, Maybe if we all write a letter to our bank we should ask them to make £1 equal to a hundred ...... : ) sorted !!!!!

Paulie, Northamptonshire, UK

Maybe, instead of slashing 10 zeros of their currency, they should slash Mugabe and 10 of his cronies from government?

Neil, London,

this does not make any sense at all!!!!! they are some who dont even make 400 bln a month, they just need to scrap it all together and use us dollars until mugabe is dead.

john mudapakati, harare, usa

This can only mean one thing Zimbabweans must excel at math. And that's just to keep track of the daily fluctuations.

Peter, Vancouver BC., Canada

Not a clue... they will carry on printing money like mad, and the zeros will soon be back.
