ZCT chief executive officer Paul Matamisa also blamed the police for driving down tourism saying: > We don’t have to beat around the bush in terms of the damage that is done by (police) roadblocks to the product. > If you are going to Bulawayo and there are 20 roadblocks you spend time stopping on 20 roadblocks. In other countries, you do not see so many roadblocks on roads to tourist resorts. That has to be dealt with effectively. They are doing tremendous damage to the tourism industry More: New Zimbabwe _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
