HARARE (AFP) - Zimbabwe, grappling with a record 2.2 million percent
inflation, has introduced a new 100-billion-dollar bank note in a bid
to tackle rampant cash shortages, the central bank said Saturday.
The new note will go into circulation on Monday, the bank said in a
statement cited by state media, joining about half a dozen new high
denomination notes already issued this year.
In January, a 10-million-dollar note was issued, then a
50-million-dollar note in April. In May, notes for 100 million and 250
million dollars were issued, swiftly followed by those for five
billion, 25 billion and 50 billion.
The southern African nation, currently gripped by a post-election
crisis, has been ravaged by hyperinflation which shot up from 165,000
percent in February to 2.2 million in June.
Independent economists however believe the official inflation figure
is grossly understated, estimating it could be running between 10
million and 15 million percent.

can give it to his supporters. The country went from exporting crops to starvation under his leadership.
But getting even was more important than the welfare of the country.
Which is what worries me about Obama's friendship with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. His church is all about getting even.
