| Mugabe's pay soars as Zimbabwe starves | |
| 2004-03-28 | |
The economically-crippled Zimbabwean government has nearly quadrupled President Robert Mugabe's salary to 73.7 million Zimbabwe dollars from Z$20.2 million, the state newspaper reported. His living expenses were doubled. His new salary is equivalent to the average yearly wage of nearly 230 people in a country where 70 per cent of the population live in poverty.
