increase their demands
Crisis
in Zimbabwe Coalition

Visit
the index of articles on the doctors' and nurses' strikes
Doctors are now demanding
a new salary of 120 million dollars, 40 million dollars up from
their initial demand of 80 million. Apparently junior doctors are
earning 6million whilst senior doctors are getting 10 million.
The medical practitioners
held a meeting with the Health Services Board last Friday tabling
their new demands. The board failed to come up with a decision.
The Coalition calls upon
the Government of Zimbabwe to address the demands by the teachers
and doctors in order to stabilize the education and health system
in the country.
Crisis Coalition is in
solidarity with PTUZ and Doctors. Their job actions are justified.
The failure by the government of Zimbabwe to address the plight
of the civil service is a clear indication of the crisis of governance,
which has confronted the state for the past 27 years of Zanu PF's
rule.
