As you can imagine, things here are a little difficult. All that you have seen and heard are mainly true. There are many things that have not got out.
Most of the supermarkets have been looted of stock. We were forced to reduce our prices by 50%. On from that they have started to release prices in the Daily lie.
The end result has been that we buy a product from the supplier at the reduced price for a dollar, mark up the 20% allowed and get told to sell it the next day for 50 cents.

Many people have been arrested. My house was stormed by a bus load of these people. They were tapping the floors to find a cellar where I hide sugar or Mazoe orange. It was very fortunate that we
were not present at the time. It is much worse in the outlying areas. Places are just being looted. These terrorists come in and order the prices to be reduced, with no basis for the reduction. Their friends and relatives than come in and buy the stuff. The state has admitted as much in today's Daily Lie.

There are many more stories to tell, however I am sure that you get the picture. In my current negative state of mind I believe that it is there intension to destroy everything that can be a threat to them. They wish to take over a few companies. If they can force people to return to the rural areas, they will have total control over them. As for the rest of us, we will be broke so in no way can we be a threat to them. Many middle class will be forced to leave. In the process they are destroying the emergent black businessman. The little guy who through hard work has made something of himself.

The reason for all this I feel is the fear of a cell in a cold European country.

I hope I am wrong, only time will tell. As we speak, many towns have no food in the shops. We have no meat, chicken, pork, colcom left.The supply of fresh fruit and veg is still quite good. We hope to get some chicken and pork early next week.

One wonders if like with Hitler, this is the FINAL SOLUTION.

Sally, everyone in Zim is needing food now. I had a parcel half filled with dry stocks and noodles etc and my friend said don't bother sending it cause the postal workers will just steal it. Every one is desperate and taking desperate measures to survive.
