President Robert Mugabe's government is coming under increasing pressure from Zimbabweans from all walks of life to revive the country's dying economy, amid a biting liquidity crunch and fast-emptying Treasury coffers spawned by a poverty of sound policies, corruption and official ineptitude.

And faced with this dire reality and an increasing restless electorate, Mugabe's critics say the long-ruling nonagenarian is having to resort to globe-trotting, begging and signing "obscure" memoranda of understanding with various countries in a desperate effort to secure funds to mitigate the situation and implement his economic blueprint, ZimAsset.

Since the election last year, the ruling party has mostly spent most of its efforts in bitter factional and succession wars.

Meanwhile, MDC-T spokesperson Obert Gutu said party leader Morgan Tsvangirai would press for meetings with some of the regional leaders to brief them about the situation in Zimbabwe.

The MDC-T said it wanted the Zimbabwe crisis back on the Sadc agenda as the economic deterioration was worsening.
