I know I find you well and I am in no way trying to disrespect your office, I am only trying to feed on the excitement and hope that we, as an arts industry have, along with other Zimbabweans turn our hopes and dreams into ways and means.
Let me reiterate the word HOPE because it is all we have for now outside of our passion and sweat.
Mr President, when you assumed office and got up and running the next day we knew this was it!
I have a few points that I am sure as an industry we would appreciate even if it means you whispering to a few ears and cracking your whip here and there.
First and foremost we believe we can have our own Hollywood, create movies and music that can be sold both locally and abroad.
We can attract Hollywood a�?Aa�? listers and collaborate with international musicians. All we need is an industry on the ground. We need a budget Sir.
I have noted with pride how you have met most of our countrya��s industry sectors. We await a dream meeting with you in the arts.
Your endorsement and meeting will instil confidence in what we do. We will be considered as a business, not just entertainment.
I can guarantee you sir, we will release Kutonga Kwaros every week and make movies every day.
Sir, let me also thank you for your selection of Kazembe Kazembe as our minister. We wait for the engineer with hope.
Please Mr President kindly whisper to him that by now we should have launched the cultural policy which was passed a long time ago. It will be a good start Sir.
Earlier when I mentioned funding, I meant kindly make sure his ministry has enough funds to even fund the National Arts Council which will in turn fund the whole arts sector.
One more thing, is it not possible that as part of their being in our country we are able to export cultural products to other nations?
I am sure that would mean we contribute significantly to the countrya��s GDP as we export our culture and dilute the long effects of cultural imperialism.
