Zimbabwe's Agreement Signals Economic Work Ahead
Editorial, The Herald | September 17, 2008
The signing of the power-sharing agreement marks the start of a new era in Zimbabwe. ++ The nation can finally start reconstruction. ++ The agreement is “an affirmation of the supremacy of African solutions to African problems,” and hopes are high that it will bring unity. ++ The real work starts now. ++ Investors will want to explore opportunities, but a reverse economic takeover should also be avoided. ++ Political power is futile without economic power, and Zimbabweans need to now draw up an economic plan for the future.
