This article notes that Zimbabwe is building a high-tech "cyber city". President Emmerson Mnangagwa launched the first $500-million stage of the Zim Cyber City project last year in partnership with Dubai-based company Mulk International. According to Mulk, It could require a total investment of $60 billion, a sum the government has said it is optimistic of meeting with financing from foreign and local investors. The plan for Zim Cyber City is to build upmarket residential areas, shopping malls, modern offices, and information technology hubs.
