BOND notes have managed to alleviate the cash crisis in the country. Businesses have begun to run again and coupled with the import restrictions, industry is reviving. Plastic money is helping in conducting business without the need to move around with swaths of cash. Plastic money has enabled revenue collection to be more efficient. — Nelson Dube, Harare.
*** Minister Saviour Kasukuwere is right for ordering Harare City Council to create a stand-alone roads department so that it efficiently attends to the city’s roads which need urgent attention. The department of works is overburdened, hence the need for a specialised roads department. — Ratidzo Gwatidzo, Harare.

Julius Malema shows he is shallow and lacks an understanding of international and regional relations. Zimbabwe assisted South Africans during the apartheid days. As such, the least they can do is stay away from our business as we have pronounced countless times that Zimbabweans know what is best for Zimbabweans. Julius Malema should mind his own business and worry about his small political party. His antics have no takers here in Zimbabwe. — Tendekai Makayi, Gweru.
*** Harare City Council should not demolish stalls for food vendors or evict them from their workstations. Vending is a source of income for these people and destroying their stalls leaves them exposed. — Tarisai Nyika, Harare.
*** It is ridiculous for anyone to think that the Warriors should pay back the money they received for going to Afcon. The players were paid their appearance fees which are different from winning bonuses. Regardless of how the team performed, they deserve their dues. We do need to invest in better training facilities to ensure our players are well equipped when they represent us at such games. — Martin Kureba, Mutare.
