  • Zimbabwe's billion dollar gold-mining industry is crucial for the country's struggling economy but, traditionally, more than half the country's population has been excluded from taking part. But now Zimbabwean women are breaking barriers to share in the wealth, following in the steps on one extraordinary entrepreneur.

    I am a white Zimbabwean that left Zimbabwe in the 1990's to pastures new, but I still love Zimbabwe and the people of Zimbabwe. I think Rose-Marie is an inspiration to all Zimbabweans and pray that her and her family live long and prosperous. Well done and good luck.

At night they dont put these things away. They cover them up and go home. NO ONE STEALS THEM!!!!!!!! They are honest hard working people. More than I can say for Germany. Went to buy a sandwish and had not changed my US currency over. I gave a $100 bill but was told I get a better exchange with my credit card. So I paid with the card. I stood there and the bitch pretended I never gave her the $100. I had to tell her I gave her the cash twice before she pretended to remember. Starving thirsty bitch was just a thief.

    I am slightly confused because i was born in Zimbabwe and my mothers was very independent and we (me and her) ran a mushroom farm and I don't remember her needing my dad to do this, even our house is still under her name. I guess its an education thing. I do talk about this is the book; A Young Womans Guide To Creating A Balanced Life.

    • @MsBonikki

      The laws may have changed, however I know for certain in the past, legally the man had all the control of assets in a marriage and the woman had no rights, so possibly unusual that the house is in her name. It may not have anything to do with how independant the woman is, rather it's how the law would view it. My mother, a doctor, paid for the house etc. but due to her marriage to my father, he was the one who had the rights to sell it, not her.

    It is harder to attract capital, if the investors does not have control of the company (49%).The investor would really have to trust the majority stockholder. I can understand the idea of excluding foreigners from natural resources, but that also mean, one can not expect any foreign help in extracting it.

    Nice positive spin on the fact that a significant portion of the population has to pan for gold to survive because the economy has been destroyed and nobody trusts paper money any more so they cannot be loaded up with IMF slavery debt. In many markets they trade gold dust directly for foodstuffs because the UN backed collapse of Rhodesia (through sanctions) has left them unable to maintain even an agrarian economy. Those foodstuffs are sent there as"aid", flooding the market and making farming an unviable business activity even without the government going around and uprooting any stable farming business that takes hold because the farmers were a point of heavy resistance during the revolution.
    Good work UN, another nation saved, try not to pull a muscle patting yourselves on the back.

Hopefully a stable economy can return to Zimbabwe, and a brighter future ahead. The people of Zimbabwe has suffered under corruption for a long time, and if this issue still persists, this fairy-tale can easily turn into a nightmare. Zimbabwe has an extremely dark history with a very long and bloody civil war, foreign interference and manipulation.

      Normally we share 50%for the owner of the mine and 50% for the workers of all the gold proceeds. Problem is that most of the workers never put the money to good use no matter how much you try to teach them and show them financial intelligence - it is sad to say the least, its a mentality issue.
