According to the BBC News Website, there has been a business as usual in Harare in spite of the calls for the strike. There are people interviewed in the streets who have commented «on the need to work» while others stated that they did not know a strike existed. Meanwhile, the MDC [Movement for Democratic Change] has implemented a five year plan to rebuild the country economically. Zimbabwe has become a broken country which needs the cooperation of others and the will of its people to move forward once Mugabe leaves the scene.
