The Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association (ZNLWVA) says 2015 will see the aggressive implementation of the Zimbabwe Agenda for Sustainable Socio-Economic Transformation (ZIM ASSET) blue print to reduce unemployment levels.

The implementation of ZIM ASSET is gathering momentum with various organisations embarking on value-addition strategies while government has removed taxes for rough diamonds sold for local beneficiation.

The decision by fiscal authorities has been described as a clear commitment which various organisations should take seriously in creating employment opportunities through attracting new capital.

ZNLWVA chairman Christopher Mutsvangwa said 2015 is set to be an exciting year as the implementation of the economic blue-print will intensify.

ZIM ASSET is premised on four economic clusters namely the infrastructure, value-addition, social and food security with a view to create two million jobs in the next five years.
