Zambia - CSO-SUN country coordinator Mathews Mhuru
THE Civil Society Organisation – Scaling Up Nutrition (CSO – SUN) is unimpressed that there has been no significant change in prices of goods and services, despite the continued inflationary decreases.
CSO-SUN country coordinator Mathews Mhuru spoke to #Kalemba on the matter.
Announcing the monthly inflation rate on Thursday, the Zambia Statistics Agency (ZamStats) disclosed that the monthly inflation rate for May 2022 dropped to 10.2 per cent from last month’s 11.5 per cent.
Mhuru explained that the biggest disappointment is that the decrease in the inflation is rate is not translating into the lower cost of food and other basic needs so as to improve people’s standard of living.
He noted that as things stand, the reduced inflation rate does not mean anything to the majority poor Zambians who would expect the prices of commodities to reduce.

    Appreciate it!

    weblog posts. After all I will be subscribing to your feed and I hope
    you write once more soon!

  3. An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a coworker who was conducting a little homework on this.
    And he actually bought me breakfast because I found it for him…

    lol. So let me reword this…. Thanks for the meal!!
    But yeah, thanks for spending the time to talk about this topic here on your web page.

  4. Greetings! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which
    blog platform are you using for this site? I’m getting
    sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had
    issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives
    for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the
    direction of a good platform.

  5. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting
    my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% sure.
    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Kudos

  6. I have been surfing on-line greater than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s beautiful price enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters
    and bloggers made good content as you did, the
    web might be much more helpful than ever before.

  7. Hello my friend! I want to say that this post is awesome, great written and come with almost all
    vital infos. I would like to see more posts like this .
