One development agency expressed concern that the funding could be used to force countries to open their markets. The scheme - being considered at an IMF board meeting on Monday - would give countries facing balance of payment problems quick access to loans. The initiative is being supported by the US, UK and other leading industrialised nations. The new funding is intended to complement existing financial support for post-conflict countries and poor nations affected by natural disasters and the impact of globalisation. Critics have claimed that, under the current system, funding is not being made available quickly or widely enough. In a key change, countries not currently receiving support through the IMF's Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility would be able to get funding.

Newboy Sibanda is a Zimbabwean, who, like millions of others fleeing the economic and political disintegration in his country, came looking for work in South Africa in 1986.

"When I had no papers the Zulus and policemen were treating me very badly," Mr Sibanda said.

"Sometimes they were catching me and taking me to a corner and saying if I didn't have an identity number and no passport, then I must pay them.

"They were just putting their hands into my pockets and taking whatever I had."

Sibanda added that he had encountered a xenophobic attitude in his adopted country.

"They say we are coming here to take their jobs, but they are not doing the jobs," he said.

"We come here to work and we work hard. You give us the job, we do it."

Mr Sibanda took advantage of a government amnesty in 1996 which allowed him to legalise his status.

But hatred of the Amakwerekwere erupted in the streets of Johannesburg in 1997, when there were violent clashes between local street traders and competing foreign vendors.

At the time, Minister of Home Affairs Mangosuthu Buthelezi described the influx of millions of illegal visitors as his "biggest headache".
