He said the recently embraced Special Economic Zones legislation was also expected to have a huge bearing in enhancing the investment climate in the country going forward. In his projections, the economy would grow by 4.8 percent in 2017 from the subdued 2.7 percent growth projection for this year. The minister said revenues of about $4 billion, which represent 26 percent of GDP, are to be generated. ---------- *Latest itel S24 now available on Pindula* $124 Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.
