Actually the country is quite rich in minerals. For example, it has the world's largest reserves in platinum - after South Africa. It has gold, copper and a host of other much sought after minerals. It is not for nothing that China is bankrolling Mugabe.
Found this interesting too:
"The bio-diesel plant, according to the paper, has the capacity to produce 100 million litres of diesel annually if fully operational according to the government mouthpiece. The plant, which processes jatropha, cotton seed, sunflower and soya, among others, to produce bio-diesel, is a joint venture between the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe and Youn Woo Investments of South Korea.
World first
Zimbabwe also scored big by being the the first country in the world to produce bio-diesel with a bio-purity level of virtually 100%.
Germany has a bio-purity level of 75% while other European countries range from 2% to 20%." |
I stand corrected.
So why has the world not gone in there to over throw this swine? |
That is the million dollar question? It really puzzels me as to why the USA, after contesting the African continent because of its raw wealth against the Soviets during the Cold War period, is now quite content to stand back and let China run amok - and the Koreans as well.
