Robert Mugabe asked to be UN 'leader for tourism'

[Lichee]

I don't understand.

Despite that fact Mugabe, 88, is under a travel ban, he has been honoured as a "leader for tourism" by the UN's World Tourism Organisation,

Improbable as it seems, the Zimbabwean president, who is widely accused of ethnic cleansing, rigging elections, terrorising opposition, controlling media and presiding over a collapsed economy, has been endorsed as a champion of efforts to boost global holidaymaking.

Why do you find this welcome news so amusing gentlemen? We are are country where many citizens want to leave and travel the world. The white imperialists of Europe and America may see fit to deny me access to their countries but that does not mean that I would deny their tourists access to my world of wonders. As reported, the situation on the ground in Zimbabwe is not as bad as portrayed in western propaganda. For example, inflation is down from 24 000% in 2009 to 6.5% this year. Food is available on the shelves and many people can afford to buy it. http://www.fews.net/docs/Publications/Z ... 011_09.pdf. If you have any sensible enquiries about my arrangement with UNWTO, please contact my spokesman, Mr Gumbo.
