Funds for major projects unveiled

The government has said the follow on visit by the Chinese delegation has resulted in the identification of projects that will be implemented this year under the government's Zim-Asset programme.

The identified projects include two special economic zones in Harare and Bulawayo, dualisation of highways, rehabilitation of railway links, and water projects.

These projects are expected to create thousands of jobs and spur economic growth.

The Chinese delegation is in Zimbabwe to verify the bankability of the projects before starting to finance them.
