CBK's reporting month has closed and they have revalued their reserves at 89.40, having closed their year in 2010 at 81.55. (KES7.85 exchange gain)
Nice fat div cheque to the exchequer and he is considered a STAR.

@ vituvingisana-my point was if CBK had intervened in good time and sold some of its reserves the shilling would have never reached the 90/- levels.


I doubt this,If CBK had sold its reserve there were no sign the speculators would have stopped their attack,I think what the governor did was splendid,in that he identified the speculators and made sure he gave them the warning shots then he plugged the holes this speculators were using to manipulate the system.

When a currency is under speculative attack the only way to salvage the situation is make monetary policies that ensure returns on speculation are as negligible as possible i.e taxing and increasing the interest rates.If you are sucked in by selling the reserves you might be taken to the cliff and dropped just like any other bubble.

remember CBK hold 3 point something months of imports as reserve now tell me how precarious the situation would have been if CBK had tapped into that reserve.

Countries such as the U.S. and Britain have taken it upon themselves to decide for us in the developing world, even to interfere in our domestic affairs and to bring about what they call regime change.
Robert Mugabe

I wish to assure you that there can never be any return to the state of armed conflict which existed before our commitment to peace and the democratic process of election under the Lancaster House agreement.
Robert Mugabe

If the choice were made, one for us to lose our sovereignty and become a member of the Commonwealth or remain with our sovereignty and lose the membership of the Commonwealth, I would say let the Commonwealth go.
Robert Mugabe

In most recent times, as the West started being hostile to us, we deliberately declared a Look East policy.
Robert Mugabe

It may be necessary to use methods other than constitutional ones.
Robert Mugabe

Our party must continue to strike fear in the heart of the white man, our real enemy!
Robert Mugabe

Our votes must go together with our guns. After all, any vote we shall have, shall have been the product of the gun. The gun which produces the vote should remain its security officer - its guarantor. The people's votes and the people's guns are always inseparable twins.
Robert Mugabe

People are free to campaign and they will be free to vote. There won't be any soldiers, you know, at the queues. Anyone who has the right to vote is free to go and cast his vote anywhere in his own area, in his own constituency.
Robert Mugabe

So, Blair keep your England, and let me keep my Zimbabwe.
Robert Mugabe

Some people are contriving ways and means of making us collapse.
Robert Mugabe

Stay with us, please remain in this country and constitute a nation based on national unity.
Robert Mugabe

The land is ours. It's not European and we have taken it, we have given it to the rightful people... Those of white extraction who happen to be in the country and are farming are welcome to do so, but they must do so on the basis of equality.
Robert Mugabe

The only white man you can trust is a dead white man.
Robert Mugabe

The white man is not indigenous to Africa. Africa is for Africans. Zimbabwe is for Zimbabweans.
Robert Mugabe

True, some land was bought by a few Cabinet Ministers. They bought the land. No minister, to my knowledge acquired land which was meant for resettlement.
Robert Mugabe

Was it not enough punishment and suffering in history that we were uprooted and made helpless slaves not only in new colonial outposts but also domestically.
Robert Mugabe

We are no longer going to ask for the land, but we are going to take it without negotiating.
Robert Mugabe

We are not hungry... Why foist this food upon us? We don't want to be choked. We have enough.
Robert Mugabe

We don't mind having sanctions banning us from Europe. We are not Europeans.
Robert Mugabe

We have said the first step was to designate the land, inform the owners. And the second would be to get the responses from the owners. And this will be openly done.
Robert Mugabe

We of Africa protest that, in this day and age, we should continue to be treated as lesser human beings than other races.
Robert Mugabe

We pride ourselves as being top, really, on the African ladder... We feel that we have actually been advancing rather than going backwards.

Not to forget when he flies on his shopping sprees he flies on White Man's plane - Boeing or Airbus. I betcha his bitches shop at the White Man's stores like Tiffany, etc buying the White Man's brands like Gucci, Chanel, etc!

[All while the Zimbabweans are suffering from hunger & other ills]

How some idiots can applaud the mugabe of today [He did some good stuff in the past esp education] is beyond me. Sadly, museveni is going the same path.

If oil is found in huge quantities you can bet your ass that the Nigger Assassinating Troops Organisation (NATO) will be airdropping weapons to newly energised 'rebels'
