controls the nation.
A few European corporations have controlled the land until now.
I think this prevents the problem of those big corps turning around and buying the land back from the people who are impoverished by the ramifications of the historical inequitable distribution of land.
99 years is about the amount of time it will take to make sure that Zimbabwe has a ZIMBABWEAN middel class which which can compete with European corporations.
I think this program is genius.
I think they have some smart development economists advising the Zimbabwean government.
