Zimbabwe: So where are Zimbabweans going?

Skilled public servants in Zimbabwe have seen their wages rendered almost worthless by runaway inflation. Since 2000, a further economically important group of migrants has been white farmers - government policy changes led to the seizure of 4,000 white-owned farms. But far greater numbers of Zimbabweans felt the heavy hand of government with the launch this year of Operation Murambatsvina, the urban clean-up that the UN says left 500,000 people homeless.
