Zimbabwe: 'Even If You Introduce ZiG500, It's Useless,' Citizens React to Rollout of New Banknotes

Zimbabweans have expressed skepticism regarding the introduction of new Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) banknotes, stating that the local currency still lacks value and acceptance. Residents in Harare, such as Aaron Tembo, emphasize that these new notes do not meet their daily needs and are not accepted for essential services. Furthermore, in many areas, residents continue to rely mainly on the South African rand and the US dollar.
