My parents were traveling around Europe in 1973 and met a couple from Zimbabwe. My parents asked why they were traveling in Europe and the replied that they were doing it why they could, because they saw a time where they wouldn't be able to due to problems in the country.
There is a couple who live down the road from me who lived in Zimbabwe for many years and then retired to Australia. They still receive a penison from Zimbabwe, but the cheque isn't cashed as it's costs more to cash the cheque than what it's worth.
A sorry tale that no one is free of blame for.
