THE shortage of sugar in retail outlets yesterday continued despite Zambia Sugar Plc assuring that it would off-load enough of the commodity on the local market to ease the crisis and bring down prices.

We muct open the market for sugar imports if Zambia sugar will behave the way they do. How can we buy sugar 5X the price we export it at. It rediculous. An end must be brought to this madness. Zambia sugar must be forced to sell sugar at not more than what it's being solve for on the export market. Or, can someone explain to us this nonsense. I dont get it. If they don't want to serve the local market, they must go bak to SA to exploit their own people. We Zambians are not desparate to accept such behaviour.
