Zimbabwe's inflation shoots to 231 million percent.
October 9, 2008 - 10:02 AM

ZIMBABWE'S annual inflation rate soared to 231 million percent in July, a state newspaper said Thursday, confirming the daily hardships of a nation driven into poverty and trapped in a political impasse.

Staggering increases in the price of bread and cereals were the main reason for the jump from the June rate of 11.2 million percent, the Central Statistical Office said.

Shortages of wheat are driving up bread prices, the paper said, compounding the struggle to avoid hunger in a country where the United Nations estimates more than five million people -- nearly half the population -- will need food aid.

I can solve the problem of inflation, provided I am given a chance to prove it. Please see http://www.wfs.org/sharma08.htm ,

If given a chance I can make any country rich and self sufficient.

Zim's inflation is directly related to Mugabe's policies. The only thing to rescue the situation is fot the unfortunate power sharing deal to be implemented. If that does not happen we are goin to see inflation hitting a billion percent before end of this year
