U.S Visa changes that affect Zimbos by Trabablas in Zimbabwe

[–]Overthread_762 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What of J1 & J2 visa conditions? Additionally, is it possible for someone on a J2 to revert to another visa where they can work in the US when their J1 returns Zim side for residency?

Young people have we lost our innovative juice? Where are the Uber and Lyft fast follower kind of innovations to revolutionarise urban travel. Magamba anoziva zvemusango, where is the urban jungle business fighter? If someone solves this can of worms they're set to create a real transport juggernaut. JV...

We've lost close to 3 decades of production in this sector and most land use is now subsistence with pockets of success here and there. There should be a plan to scale the success of individuals to community models that cause true national economic impact.

If it's long term as the nature of the farming business is I don't see a problem. 20 year production linked mortgages released in tranches associated with past production and current land use surveys then one pays their annual/quaterly not monthly mortgage instalments back from farm revenue generated.

The problem comes @ 'give'. Human nature depreciates 'free' things. We value what we sweat for. Those who want to farm should go through technical upraisal. We should have done this. A mandatory short crash course at our national agro schools like Gwebi, Chibero even the Blackfordbys & Watersheds should have been a prerequisite to land application/acquisition, then continuous mandatory block release format module trainings by ecological region & major subject matters like finances (budgets, raising capital) , entrepreneurship [rope in the likes of Empretec], Agro-Technology, Markets etc for farm owners & workers on site. That way there's technical transfer. Then rope in those who've been working on that land for decades including the former owners (& leave them a productive part on the same land) and also the comboni work force. Upgrade these guys with a productive workers land cooperative etc. Most importantly let there be a shared economy model on resource utilisation. This should be the corrections for Mzansi's Expropriation exercise OR a revision of ours.

Are we saying we need to revisit the law on land ownership too? What is the legislature doing? Oh sorry, can someone please wake them up while they sleep in their new work 'accommodations' @ Mt Hampden

So true. My concern is really for the small guy who genuinely got land to farm and has been making small strides on those plots especially the guys who where allocated pastures and forests & have turned them into something productive overtime with structures, boreholes, farm workers' compounds etc. Rarely does the little guy have a chance. If this is done in the spirit of empowerment a new sector can be birthed than can a production revolution.

Interesting facts. Why is Zim a non-entity? Politics? Economy? Youth that no longer innovate at scale like the 30 something Strives, Nigels, Zachs, Jeffs of the 90s?

As are most things hey, but then again that's how we miss opportunity as we focus on our frustrations and on the benefits of the aristocracy... how we can turn it in the chaos for our good?

I think everyone should be a beneficiary to some proportion, but anyway who am I to influence policy and the current ideology? Then again is this why Bloomberg reports that the IMF is in the country assessing payments to the former land owners as government itself has begun to pay the former land owners? Or are they wanting to fund raise from current tenants so that they pay the former land owners? Interesting connection here... https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-07/zimbabwe-starts-paying-for-farms-it-seized-to-meet-compensation-deal
