		In contrast to the fall in malaria deaths in the Midlands province, nationally the disease claimed more lives this year compared to the same period last year, mainly due to heavy rains which fell in most parts of the country.

	ZWNEWS.com - linking the world to Zimbabwe
		Shared between the ruling Zanu PF party and Tsvangirai's opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) party in the June 2000 parliamentary elections, the Midlands is a microcosm of Zimbabwean society with an almost equal balance between the two main ethnical Ndebele and Shona groups.
		Rather than use the opportunity to get cheap votes, as may be expected of any politician ahead of such an important election, a visibly confident Tsvangirai instead focused his energies on trying to encourage his listeners to turn out in large numbers during balloting in the two-day poll.
		Besides fears that the ballot could be rigged, political analysts say the violence that has scarred Zimbabwe in the past two years and has increased in the past three months could induce apathy among many voters, especially those in remote rural areas.

		THE Midlands, Zimbabwe’s central province offers vast potential for all round investment because of its complex industrial and commercial businesses.
		Midlands is arguably the richest in the country endowed with 43 different types of minerals among them gold, platinum, chrome, emeralds and iron ore. Investment in the mining sector is potentially lucrative because it did not depend on seasonal rains.
		According to the Governor and Resident Minister for Midlands, Cde Cephas Msipa, the plan to run from 2002 to 2004 is aimed at restoring social infrastructure destroyed by the tropical cyclone Eline last year.

		There can be no doubt therefore that the arrival of the tourists in Zimbabwe presented real exploitable opportunities for Robert Gabriel Mugabe's regime and ZANU-PF (determined to establish a Shona hegemony by inflicting genocide and ethnic cleansing against the Ndebele people in Zimbabwe) to discredit ZAPU and its leadership within the country, regionally and internationally.
		We are alarmed, Sir, by certain press statements made by the Prime Minister of Zimbabwe and certain of his Ministers that an accord has been reached in terms of which Botswana would repatriate to Zimbabwe all "dissidents" who have run away from that country to Botswana.
		Press reports in Zimbabwe have noted that the so-called "1987 Unity Accord" was based on a single demand from Mugabe's regime and ZANU-PF regarding the dissolution of ZAPU as a political party to which the leadership of ZAPU obliged and capitulated.
