Mugabe's foreign travels draining nation's coffers

The issue here is not whether or not our civil servants deserve a salary increase.

They do, indeed.
What Mugabe is doing is to make it look as if Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai and his MDC are the ones denying public service employees the salary increment they deserve. I hope that public service employees, especially Mugabe's long abused teachers, are able to see how they are being used to circumvent meaningful adjustments in their favour.
