10-01:Impoverished miners scratch through soil while collecting ore to pan for flecks of gold March 20, 2008 on the outskirts of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. They said that their average earnings are around $1 per day. The year 2008 proved to be disasterous for the country, even by Zimbabwe's standards. The economy went into a free fall and inflation soard to more than 150,000 percent. Citizens were unable to buy even the most basic foodstuffs, leading to a 60 percent increase in acute child malnutrition in rural areas. President Robert Mugabe's ruling party lauched widespread attacks on opposition party members, killing hundreds and withholding international food aid to millions of people. The combination of economic collapse and political oppression drove millions of Zimbabwaens to flee the country, most of them to South Africa to seek asylum. There, a wave of anti-immigrant violence left them even more terrorized and with President Mugabe, 84, still ruling Zimbabwe, no way to return home.
