Thank you very much for your company. People in zimbabwe are preparing for another day of celebrations on friday new leader emerson will be sworn in as only the second president in the countrys history Robert Mugabe who resigned on tuesday after thirty seven years in power has been granted immunity from prosecution along with his family the decision that has been broadly accepted by a country keen to put the worst of the mugabe era behind them and focus on the future. Its business as usual in harare. On time to digest the excitement of the past few days. Focus has briefly shifted to the announcement that Robert Mugabe and his family will be immune from prosecution feelings are divided. We believe they should let go of him and his family no problem but we also feel people also feel that they should be some accountability a lot has happened people have been oppressed. Negative things have happened. If the laws have been instituted which. People which of course so people need to hear from him. Maybe he should come on t. V. And apologize maybe to the nation. But zimbabweans are trying to put their countrys past behind them under hopeful for the future. I think is going to. The. North being done by the past but its been. You know. Werent. Written for be you know. The people with the continents so that we can build our country. Incoming president emerson was welcome back to zimbabwe on wednesday as a hero in an emotional speech he promised a Brighter Future for the country and asked his people to help them improve the economy create jobs and stamp out corruption. The final preparations are being made ahead of nongod was swearing in ceremony on friday zimbabweans will see a new president for the first time in thirty seven years. Christine wonder joins us now from harare the capital are christina the first new president and post and post in the pen a symbolic way after almost four decades. Managing expectations. Well later listening to what is saying essentially saying the right things hes talking about creating jobs at this is a country where conservative estimates put it that eighty percent of people without work and so when he addressed that crowd last night he he mentioned the word jobs three times much to the roll off the crowd he also said that he was already in touch with the people abroad and regional neighbors who have indicated that they want to support and grow this economy so suddenly about what hes saying he is looking to inspire a lot of hope and confidence in the zimbabwean people also striking a recon city a tree note and saying lets move forward which are right on that note to moving forward will there be a role for the opposition and the post mugabe in zimbabwe. Well this Transitional Government thats innocent and god will preside over that israeli jew to last until next to september when when the country goes for a general election he does have the option off including members of the opposition in this Transitional Government but i have been looking at monitoring as seniors and officials to feed and he highlighted that knows. A agreements had been struck that they had at that they hadnt been any discussions to that to that nature and given that none of what is going to be announcing his cabinet ought to the speech tomorrow at ten oclock local time i dont see how they could possibly any bid to be any opposition think is in in that Transitional Government and ive spoken to senior figures in the opposition for example bolden trying to tie the needle the movement for Democratic Change zimbabwes biggest opposition and hes not really interested in engaging in any parts the patient according a Transitional Government but rather preparing for the general election next year campaigning in their respective parts of this country now of course with Robert Mugabe not facing a prosecution getting a heros welcome by all accounts of people ready to forgive and forget for the sake of moving on. Youve hit the nail on the head yes people want to move on peoples lives in disarray we talked about the fact that people are unemployed yet we talked about the fact that this countrys economy has virtually come to a standstill people laundry interested in the fate of the mugabe is at this point but rather their own lives and of course the news came out that he is not going to be prosecuted people widely anticipated just that many zimbabweans going as far as telling me that hes not really a problem they take issue with the form of this lady grace mugabe who they say should not have been shielded and but one thing a lot of zimbabwes just say is that the amount of wealth that the bill gob is a master in their time in power is radio not were talking about huge commercial farms were talking about lands lost amounts of lands until about mines theres a big assets that some zimbabweans feel should really be brought back to the people but as for mugabes stake in in zimbabwe and being granted the military protection as weve heard many zimbabweans are ok with us Christine Amanpour reporting from harare zimbabwe thank you alright and danielle has more on the economic challenges facing isnt baba because the incoming president has his work cut out for him absolutely and its been quite disruptive since the military takeover there zimbabwean stocks have lost six billion dollars in value since that military takeover a short time ago and thats according to data released by the exchange today ordinary zimbabweans are cautiously optimistic about the future as we just heard they know the next president anderson is closely tied to the old ways but they also see plenty of opportunity at least he couldnt plunge the country further into financial ruin than Robert Mugabe. Zimbabwe has being greedy and for Economic Growth planned for resources solid Public Infrastructure and plenty of Human Capital but under mugabe the countrys economy took a detour from its stubborn african neighbors it began in one thousand nine hundred ninety seven when the government began seizing land from white farmers the jolt for a country that leaned on its agricultural exports the result was an economy that nearly faulted in half over the next decade it was the strongest contraction of its kind during peacetime according to the World Bank Inflation hit five hundred billion percent poverty rates surged throwing a fit the country into extreme need things began to improve in two thousand and nine after zimbabwe abandoned its local currency from outside currency regime they can a me has struggled again lately and Inflation Fears are back investors have ploughed their money into stocks in recent months as the mugabe government began printing acquires the money called bond notes the men on guard law Government Faces difficult questions once the cheering subsides can it bring back a local currency can it solve a liquidity crunch i suspect that everyone knows that fixing the economy is a very very issue given confidence to jobs giving concessions to the investors what to do with the rest of the world so that what it will get and get from anywhere in order to get our country going once again economists say the structure for zimbabwes success is there now the question is whether the leadership will be and journalist young langen has been reporting from zimbabwe for a decade and he joins us now here in whats the first thing we should do to jumpstart the economy. Well i think the first problem to tackle from what i got was the National Budget which was originally supposed to be presented today but it has been postponed until the end of january two thousand and eighteen the country will run a huge fiscal deficit deficit this year after nearly one point five billion euro billion us dollars deficit in two thousand and sixteen the economy is shrinking and the inflation is accelerating the budget is the only policy instrument available to the new government and whatever was planned by the former minister who is now in jail will have to review it and perhaps change completely we still have the two thousand and fifteen lima agreement which means that zimbabwe has to clear rise of three interest three institutions the i. M. F. The world bank and the Southern AfricanDevelopment Bank which is also was six hundred and one six hundred two million u. S. Dollars. As part of the lima agreement zimbabwe has also to develop a new comprehensive country funds and program being supported by those bangs just mentioned. It juts about i might agree on that one testament to cut Public Sector costs within and then they can perhaps get access to i. M. F. World bank funds again so at the moment as you just mentioned id be on meth wont lend to zimbabwe until its cleared almost two billion dollars in debt without Financial Support its going to be practically impossible to recover to its full extent so how can one god regain the trust of the i. M. F. And institutional investors. Well i think that the most important thing he has to do is that he is going to restore justice and law i think thats the most important. Yeah definitely has to persuade the International Community that these just were theme and that there will be free fair and Credible Elections next year and that hes going babs to involve the oppositions in whatever form i think thats that whos going to convince the International Community of ok so creating security and certainty at the moment of course is involved he has a very troubled reputation economically with two hundred percent debt to g. D. P. That is massive and that is on the official think is with these changes that are coming in now do you expect companies will want to invest that and im pretty sure there are lots of International Companies which want to invest in them but before a number of reasons well that if theres a bobbins outstanding people theyre still valid educated that able to work and they have got the will and they want to achieve something in life as your one as we all know lots of zimbabweans work outside the country have made be in south africa and britain and australia the us and even in other countries so they do have the will to succeed worldwide and thats what International Investors know they do have the cups capacity and the do have the also to to do new things and i dont know about getting a handle on corruption meat is he the right leader to do that after all hes a stud by mcgarvie side for decades briefly if you can. Bridges sure he knows how to really loot and to work with the means of corruption but nevertheless he also knows that if hes not going to change well this land will be again be in a freefall and that will be devastating for him as well as for the country he i think he saw over the last days well how. Good the people are and how massive the protests can be ok so theres a lot of work to do and a lot of opportunity that as well you know and thank you very much for your insight and. Talking job cuts later on here in germany ill bring you that later in the show thanks danielle and out of that harrowing wait in argentina where family members of forty four sailors are anxiously waiting to learn the fate of their loved ones on board a submarine that has gone missing Argentine NavalOfficials Say an unusual sound detected near the last known position of the missing sub is consistent when the explosion and noise was recorded a week ago several hours after the navy last had contact with the vessel and its forty four crew members well as the search continues concerns are growing for the crews welfare as the sub nears the last of its oxygen supply.

They fled to relative safety here in bangladesh bringing stories of homes burned to the ground and family members raped and murdered at the hands of Security Forces now theyre deeply skeptical of going back. I dont trust the myanmar government theyre always like this. This is my second time leaving home. And my husband has left three times.
