CLEAN: Supermarket shelves still out of reach for ZimbabweÕs poor
After years of chronic food shortage, the supermarkets of Zimbabwe's capital are full of goods, as prices stabilise following a decade of world-record hyperinflation. Even with prices falling, few people can afford to buy food in a country where the unemployment rate is estimated at 94 percent. However President Robert Mugabe now plans to revert to the local currency, saying that multiple currencies introduced earlier this year were not helping the plight of the people.
