Zimwatch: A Cheerful Christmas - Fewer Road Deaths - 27th December 2002, 15.56

Zimbabweans have been pauperised by their government. The fuel shortage left thousands unable to travel to their families over the holidays, as commodity shortages prevented the satisfaction of the barter agreement with Libya.

However, only forty-two people died on the roads, half the number that died in 2001. A silver lining.
