Hello,

I dont know if you can assist me or not. I am an American and I have a friend in Harare to whom I recently shipped a gift. She has faxed me a copy of a letter from The Zzimbabwe Revenue Authority Commissioner General's office which states she must provide proof of the contents value and the packages insurance in order for the package to be delivered to her or pay an outrageous duty fee.

My question is, Is this legal? and what can I do to help my friend receive her gift? She has already requested receipts which I shall try to fax her, if I can find the proper international prefixes.

I realize this is not your responsibility, but await your kind assistance nonethless,

There is no monetary policy whatsoever Mugabe and RBZ are dead he can ask the RBZ to print excess money for his own good. Money is made ku Fidelity printers and there is no control whatsoever the solution to all this nonsense is a common currency in Africa and an African Central Bank as a whole besides country's like RSA saying they wil loose this is more like the Euro RBZ is now a waste of time they want our forex yet when u ask them for forex they say there is nothing

Africa union wake up

Dear Eric

I believe if one is a Chartered Accountant he should have respectable business acumen.

Iwas digusted to note your comments in The Independent "Gono you were Right"

I thing you are now loosing your independence and intergrity and becoming a flop to the profession.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHEN YOU SAY WE ARE REACHING 200% TARGET INFLATION WHEN PRICES ARE GOING UP BY 100% EVERY DAY. YOU BETTER STOP INFECTING THE NATION WITH YOUR LIES

[JOB RUKANDA]

GONO STOP ASKING FOR OUR MONEY WE NEED TO VOTE

YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE LOVE WITH OUR MONEY WHEN YOU DO NOT WANT THE PEOPLE

THE COMMENTS WHICH CHINAMASA MADE WERE JUST AS STUPID AS HE IS HE MUST NOT TELL US THAT WE ARE NOT ZIMBABWE.

URI ROMBE RAKAKURIRA KWASEKURU

[JOB RUKANDA]

Gono thinks if you are a Diaspora you do not have enough brains or we are just here to work for him .

WE DO NOT NEED YOUR HOUSING IF WE WANT TO BUY A HOUSE WE WILL BUY USING OUR OWN MEANS WE DO NOT NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE.

Y ou want to repeat again like what you did to civil servants through Ministry of Construction.

To hell with your ideologies

[JOB RUKANDA]

I read in the paper that Gono gave Zanu Pf $800m were did he get that from!

Abusing taxpayers money by funding Party politics

MDC said:

Is the new monetary policy working or should we give it time to work?

[Munjanja]

Mufudzi wemombe ozviita mwene wadzo. Chaasingazivi Gono ndechekuti yekuronzerwa igama wakaringa nzira. Kana kuti arikuziva kuti ruvhimo rwemauro nderwemagumo arova tsuro oisa muhombodo. Nyika yaiverera uchi nomukaka yokuchidza nzara nyota nehurombo. SORRY ZIMBABWE

[Munjanja]

I knew Chiyangwa as an attention seeker, he also loved money like Judas and he craved for power like Herold, if he sold his uncle for these I am not suprised. But the total shock came from Godfrey Dzvairo I knew him personally and very well, he was neither greed nor bosterous I strongly believe someone up in the zpf eliminated him strategically for his comfortable post of ambassador we know such things are always happening in ZANU. I can sencirely say to the Dzvairo family keep on praying vana va GURUNDORO

but Goche killed ZUM and its fallowers without remorse so did Chombo to MDC and Mudzuri to these two I say GO AND ROT IN CHIKURUBI ;D

[Zimbo]

We must be objective regarding the achievements of Gono otherwise we will be just people who oppose eveything because we belong to the opposition. We must seperate the government and some of its admistrative pillars such as RBZ. Let us look back to our situation 14 months ago. Eveyone will agree with me that things were much worse then in terms of stability than what we are currently expiriencing. I am not a Gono support nor a Zanu pf supporter but I would want to point out a few achievements by this guy and then comment on whether this amount to a turnaround in the economy. In terms of the availability of the foreign currency Gono managed to convience uncle Bob that the $ had to be de valued if there was ever going to be stability in the financial sector. This is what the MDC and people like Simba Makoni had been saying and nobody listened. Obviously when the dollar was de valued some forex started to get into the official channels improving the situation on our critical imports such as oil among others. It was not a miracle or anything but simple obeying the simple economic principles. The speculation against the currency that characterised the market then is still previlant even today. Last year December when Gono took the reigns at RBZ the exchange rate with the Britisch pound was about one as to 7000. In January to eased to about 4500 before increasing again at an increasing rate. Today it is around 15000. The Herald attributed the decline in December last year to the policy announcement but everyone involved in currency knows that it is common for it to ease especially after the festive season when many exiled people vissit home bringing with them large sums of one and also due to the decline in business activities during this period which require forex.
Most of the credit being today given to Gono does not belong to him. The exchange rate is still in an upward trend and if macroeconomic fundamentals are not addressed this will continue. This is almost nothing that Gono can do to improve our lives in Zimbabwe except for printing more money which of cause was in short supply last year and ensuring the exchange rate is realistic to avoid shortages.
As for the position of the MDC it is important that we should not criticise everything for political milage. Rather when positive policies are introduced most of which are already on the Restart Blueprint, we should be able to explain our position clearly to the electorate such that when they "stea" ideas from us credit will be rightfully accorded to us

[Munjanja]

It is wrong to see glitering objects and taking them for gold. Gono did swallowed other banks to keep RBZ affloat. Reality tells us that Gono is Mugabe's hero not Zimbabwe's. The last bank to be closed in Zim had held the salaries of many people, this gave RBZ time to shape. Gono used the power given to him by Mugabe to kill compatition and protect the RBZ's crimes against financial institutes in Zimbabwe. It is funny how other people like you Zimbo see greatness in such cruel individuals! What else has Gono done other than closing banks which are not linked to Mugabe's fat cats?

[JOB RUKANDA]

I need to advise my fellow countrymen about the issue of HOMELINK HOUSING SCHEME

The Governor said he want to achieve a single digit in inflation by 2007 yes if it happens its commendable.

But really who is going to be the victim and how is he going to achieve it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He will have to devlue the Z$ to US$1 to Z$2500.00 to achieve that because all other variables are statics

Be careful you will remain with large capital amouts that will be hard for you service with an artificial firming of the currency.

Gono does not have a sense of humour. He is trying to hedge currency movements against your pockect thats why he promised Zanu Pf that foreign currency will be available for the coming two years

[Munjanja]

I agree with Mr Rukanda. Gono is a shinning vilian a hero of the blood sucking regime I also advice those in diaspora to stay clear of him. Gono chigweee chinojuruja majuru nomuswe ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!! IT WORKS!!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT TO A LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!! : A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroup, just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. : Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it: All, so I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT? Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end second week I had made a total over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. Its: Certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!! : Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works? Please make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it, as you need it.

STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery. Next, place one paper in each stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:

#1)
P. Timmons

(I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!

So what are the chances of that happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the Internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. Remember, play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will work.
