Zimbabwe changes stance on Chinese investment


President Mugabe has stated recently that Zimbabwe would be stupid to accept investment from China or any other foreign nation without pre-conditions. Mugabe said foreign investors were free to bring in their capital and technology, but should never dream of owning land and majority shareholding in local companies, deeming this as "robbery" and  "theft". He said the nation’s industry was ready for 100% indigenisation claiming the country had now done enough to acquire 51% shareholding in foreign-owned companies. He said mining would be the first sector to be affected by the proposed 100% indigenisation.
