Zambia is moving forward with the enactment of regulations that would ban the use of foreign currencies, including the U.S. dollar, for local transactions, Odaily Planet Daily reported. A draft document released to the public by the Bank of Zambia includes measures aimed at strengthening the use of the country's legal tender, the kwacha. The document proposes a prison sentence of up to ten years for the use of currencies other than the kwacha, and heavy fines for citizens who violate these regulations. The rules, which are expected to be formalized by the ministers of finance and national planning, could affect the way Zambians and tourists conduct trade in the country.
