Mugabe begs China for £25bn to fix economy

omw i think bob has lost it

25 billion to rebuild what?

i dont want to seem racist, but bring back the white farmers and maybe zim have a chance of surviving

get rid of bob

i mean majority of ppl who now own the farms have no freakin idea how to farm

surely bob cannot come back to power :(

i think his time is up, if he does not lose he must be assassinated
 
25 billion for him and his cronies to train enough bodyguards, buy enough ammo and get enough mercs, petrol for them and other supplies to live it up till old Bob reaches the limit
of his life expectancy. :)

Maybe China can stop begging Japan for money to cut it's green house emissions? Oh wait, that's not important for them.....
 
china will almost certainly hand it over.. (that's my take on it)

they want to have a good foothold in the region, and a stupid insane racist monkey f*ckwit like mugabe is making
it very easy for china to come into africa in force.. obviously there'll be lots of conditions attached to the money,
but it suits China to have a crazed un-unified leader on a nice chunk of African real estate, needing money..

which of course means that the US will be using its covert kids to foster proxy wars and help meltdown countries in the region..

China is going to be the new global SUPERPOWER.. its purely a matter of numbers..

the US has just 300+ million people..

China, the last time I checked, has something like 1300 million people..

(1.32 BILLION people)

So they're looking for real estate, and - as I pointed out a couple of years back here on forum, they're gonna be coming into Africa - as expansion north up into Caspian region, is blocked mostly by US forces guarding 'their' oil.. so China can only step into Africa..

Welcome to Battleground Africa - some time in the next couple of decades, as the US and China and Russia decide to party..

in the meantime, forget african languages, learn Mandarin, and bow before your future probably quite cruel coming new overlords :P

I was just going to say that.
 
I would be happy if he sold it to the Chinese for that. I think for that price they could actually buy the whole country....

You don't want the chinese anywhere near you. I am sure some of them are very nice as individuals but collectively their government is rather predacious. Nevermind the wonderful human rights record.

Perhaps they can't be worse than Ugly Bob but Zim can be ignored, China can't.
 
Can you imagine what China could do with a country like Zim? We may all be going to Zim for work cause everything will work and be efficient.

You are so right. Unfortunately.

Chinese are coming.
I heard Mandarin is being taught in schools in Zim.

The CIA advisers will be coming next to support Tswangirai.
Bob is done for, unless the Chinese can protect him.

Are we going to have a war on our doorstep soon?

Civil strife?
We live in interesting times.
 
25 billion pounds .... How much is that in Zim Dollars?

More than all the tea in China.

I think the Zimbos had about $1.9M worth of currency in circulation as of a few months ago. Don't know what they've printed since as their money has expiry dates.

And the commercial banks are being accused of trying to destroy the economy becuase they are not collecting the freshly printed money for circulation.

But the currency is a joke as a lot of people have resorted to bartering for goods.

More millionaires that any other country
What they have before candles? Electricity
What did they have before a bartering system? Money

Sad.
