Economist and Zimbabwe National Chamber of Commerce (ZNCC) chief executive officer Mr Takunda Mugaga had this to say: > To bring back our currency calls for macroeconomic convergence which manifests itself in a narrow fiscal gap, narrow trade deficit, as well as improving market confidence. Indicators so far are not promising for Zimbabwe to have its own currency now. > We need to resolve the external debt issue, land tenure issue, domestic debt, as well as re-engaging the international community due to perceived high risk in the country.
