Namibia the next Zimbabwe?
It looks like Namibia is embarking on a fast-track land reform program that will take away a vast quantity of land from its white owners (4.8 million hectacres) and redistribute it to a relatively small share of the population (240,o00 farmers) on a "willing seller, willing buyer basis."
Sound familiar? This was exactly the kind of language used to describe the land reform program in Zimbabwe when it was first conceived.
