Am Impressed By My Minister Of Finance

When the New Government was formed and ministers were first annouced (before being amended) in February 2009, I made two objections on Tvsangirai's pick of Ministers.
1)One was about people from Matabeleland where he had picked only one from MDCM. That was adjusted when he appointed Gorden Moyo and Sipepa.
2) The second objection was on picking Tendai Biti for the ministry of Finance, I thought it was not the best decision given there were people with financial background like Elton Mongoma, etc. Let me say I repent on that objection. I now understand that selection was a wise one.

The Minister of Finance Honorable Tendai Biti is doing a good job. He is refusing to be bullied by Zanu pf, Mugabe, Gono and anybody. I think he knows what he is doing and he has to be recomended for that. I know it was once publicised that he recieved a mail with a bullet inside meant to be a threat on his life. I pray God for his proctection. His stance on the Zim Dollar, IMF money and the current Reserve Bank Amendment Bill bieng introduced among other things are proof enough that he has to be trusted as a capable Minister of Finance.
