Zimbabwe: China Withdraws Support for Mugabe Regime

Yaaay! No more Chinese support for Mugabe. I’m still waiting for the day we can say “bye bye” to him.

By the way, have I told you guys that I accidently bumped into the cute dictator himself recently in a 5-star hotel surrounded by many body guards? I was walking out of a seminar and I stopped for a while, curious to know why a big group of rich-looking Africans were gathered on the floor above the lobby. It’s as if there was a celebrity or something. They saw me looking at them and when they realized I was African, I was invited to say “hi”, together with a number of African students who had apparently come all the way just to see him. I approached to finally discover who the imporant, “wonderful” person getting all the attention was. I then looked at the guy who invited me as he was still kindly insisting I say “hi”, and loudly replied “no thanks“.

I walked away feeling satisfied.

Mugabe? Yuck!

    Yikes! Not my kind of celebrity, either. Congo is a mess, to say the least. A friend of mine here is from there originally, and for some reason he refuses to talk on the subject. He’d talk about Africa in general sometimes, and he had plenty to say about his studies in the Soviet Union, but nothing about Congo.

    I don’t ask anymore. I’m afraid I might just get an answer.

    good on u, babe!
    I bumped into him once too in the Isetan supermarket in KLCC. I was w my mum and we arrived before him, and when he got there they actually closed the whole store. Anyway, he was standing in the shampoo isle surrounded by a bunch of nasty looking bodyguards and staring at diffirent bottles like they were completely foreign. The kept giving us shifty looks and were trying to keep us away from him. Well me n mum gave him a nasty look before we walked off, hahah
