The Zimbabwean government is reportedly moving to expand taxes payable exclusively in the ZiG currency, as part of its broader financial reforms aimed at strengthening the local currency. This development comes amidst heightened scrutiny on non-governmental organizations (NGOs), with the National Association of Non-Governmental Organisations (NANGO) intensifying its support for NGOs navigating new Private Voluntary Organisations (PVO) regulations. The dual focus on financial reforms and regulatory oversight suggests a concerted effort by the administration to assert greater control over economic and civil society sectors.
