    I think people will be surprised at how many farmers that lost land in Zim is still hopeful and optimistic that they will get their land back. And will be willing to go back to their farms.

    There was an article a while back that I read about a farmer that went back to check what his "old farm" looks like currently(and what little is left), and he said that himself and other farmers are just waiting patiently for the call back(and they are convinced that they will get their land back) to their farms after the "Mugabe era".

    Yes and it’s not exactly a free country. It’s the same bunch of regulations. People in zim think it’s now free and somehow will be different. The same muppets are still in control of the looting.

    Well yes. But the point in response to your post is that the Chinese communist party has changed a heck of a lot over the decades. By the way, did you notice that they took China from being dirt poor to fast becoming the world's dominant military and economic power in just a few decades?

    I don’t have the same faith in ZANU-PF to turn Zim around.

    If you take the history of all african countries into account I don't blame you.
    We in SA cannot even turn things around, and we don't have an inflation rate of 89.7 sextillion.

    Quite. FWIW though, even under Mao China's GDP growth rate far exceeded that of the US. But then they *were* coming off a very low base.
