  • Zimbabwe (Country Code +263) Communication of 12.XII.2018
    Zimbabwe (country code +263) Communication of 12.XII.2018: The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ), Harare, announces updates to the national numbering plan of Zimbabwe. POTRAZ has approved the amendment and consolidation of National Geographical Area Codes on the Public Switched Telephone Network in Zimbabwe by TelOne (Pvt) Limited. POTRAZ has also assigned new subscriber number block of 078 6 XXX XXX and 078 7 XXX XXX to Econet Wireless Zimbabwe. The updated national numbering plan of Zimbabwe is as follows. 1. Definitions Country Code (CC) Country Code (CC) is a digit or a combination of digits (one, two or three) identifying a specific country or countries. Dialling Plan A string or combination of decimal digits, symbols, that defines the method by which the numbering plan is used. A dialling plan includes the use of prefixes, suffixes, and additional information, supplementary to the numbering plan, required to complete the call. Geographic Area Code or Area Code (AC) This refers to an area code that has a defined geographic boundary. Geographic area codes are for conventional fixed- line (or land line) services terminating at fixed points. The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is divided into several geographic areas. Each of the geographic area is allocated an area code. International Access Prefix (IAP) A digit or combination of digits used to indicate that the number following is an international directory number. In Zimbabwe the International Dialling Access Prefix is ‘00’. National Access Prefix (NAP) or Trunk Prefix A digit or combination of digits used by a calling subscriber to make a call to another subscriber in his own country, but outside his own numbering area or network.

The ilmenite geochemistry eliminates other Zimbabwe Kimberlites as potential sources of these pathfinder minerals. Geophysical modelling has been used to ascribe the elevation of southern Africa to dynamic topography sustained by a mantle plume; however, the evolution of the modern divide between the Zambezi and Limpopo drainage basins is not readily explained in terms of this model. Rather, it can be interpreted to represent a late Palaeogene continental flexure, which formed in response to crustal shortening, linked to intra-plate transmission of stresses associated with an episode of spreading reorganization at the ocean ridges surrounding southern Africa.

    824 zw 90 824—zw—7 606 SUMMARY This is the report of a SIDA consultancy mission carried out in December 1 989 and January 1 990 by Per Olsson, Daisy Savanhu and Uno Winb lad. The task of the mission was to review the ongoing Manicaland Health, Water and Sanitation Programme, to make recommendations for its continuation and to review a proposal for extending the programme to the neighbouring province of Mashonaland East. The report is based on field visits to five of the seven districts of Manicaland, discussions with programme staff during three one-day workshops (attended by more than half of the provincial Public Health Inspectorate), meetings in Mutare and Harare and desk studies of relevant documents. Over the past four years the SIDA funded programme has assisted households and local communities in constructing 20,000 Blair latrines and 1,500 communal water points. 160 schools have been provided with latrines and about half of them equipped with hand-washing tanks. The facilities are of good standard and constructed in durable materials. They seem to be well used. Over the past 12 months there has been a marked increase in health and hygiene activities within the programme. The construction programme has slowed down over the past two years, from an output of 9,000 household latrines in 1 987 to 3,000 in 1 989. The programme has been suffering from an erratic supply of cement, mainly due to a nationwide shortage but also to lack of transport facilities and an inordinate delay in paying suppliers. We recommend a continuation of the Manicaland programme basically in accordance with the draft project document submitted by M0H.
