Zimbabwean Expect Their Nation To Emerge As True Beacon of Success
29 June 2009
Chinhoyi — ZIMBABWE will emerge as a true beacon of success and overall uplifting of its people in Africa if the country manages to maintain and sustain prevailing peace and stability, a Cabinet minister has said.
Speaking at Chinhoyi Press Club last Friday, Justice and Legal Affairs Minister Patrick Chinamasa said Zimbabwe had everything it takes to empower its people in the newly found spirit of inclusive Government.
"Our greatest asset besides our natural resources is an educated and skilled population that needs an environment of stability like we have now to meaningfully contribute to the development of the country.
"Zimbabwe will be unrecognisable in the not too distant future," he said. The minister said it was a pity that some people did not value how rich the country was and left that appreciation to outsiders who were now angling for a stake.
Describing the working environment in the inclusive Government as "businesslike and focused", Cde Chinamasa said finance was needed to complement natural resources and human capital.
He warned that external threats to the new dispensation remained and called on parties to the Global Political Agreement to remain vigilant and wary of things that were divisive.
"There are external threats to the inclusive Government which need to be jealously guarded against by all parties to the GPA," he said. He said there was now realisation by members from both MDC formations that sanctions were real and had a devastating effect on the economy, making any interventions and effort to resuscitate the economy difficult.
This, he said, was shown by the change in attitude and language as reality sets in.
"Ministers from both formations now face up to reality.
"They now see what they could not see from outside and what we have always said.
"They were previously academic and now see things in a different light. Our colleagues now see reality as we saw it before the inclusive Government," Minister Chinamasa said
